ALL GONE
The expected happened. Two hours
after the seat 6ale for University
Night began yesterday the supply had
been exhausted and that, after the
authorized statement in Monday's Ne
braskan that the seat 6ale would be
at 11:00 Tuesday, when in fact it be
gan at 12:30 an hour when a large
number of students had left the cam
ps for the day.
In fpite of the repeated suggestions
of the Nebraskan concerning a matinee
performance jthe committee has not
considered the proposition. The Oliver
can be secured for Saturday afternoon
for $50. The lower floor seats six
hundred people. This number at the
regular price would net more than
enough to pay expenses. Now why
shouldn't this annual event be broad
ened so that all students might have
a chance to go. There are many peo
ple in this school who can't afford to
attend dances; who can't afford to go
to expensive shows; who can't afford
to pay fifty cents, or a dollar, or three
dollars to attend some entertainment
or social function. Now when there
is a representative school affair that
is within their financial reach they
can't attend because they were unable
to be at a certain place at a certain
hour.
There Is still time enough to arrange
for a matinee Saturday. It is to be
hoped that the committee will get be
hind this proposition and give all a
chance to attend the University Night
performance.

THE FORUM
WHAT THINK YOU?
- The following from the Lincoln Daily
News for Monday evening, March 15th,
is timely, in that it has to do with a
subject that is at the present time
per plexing not only the University
officials, but also the student body as
a whole:
"In the course of his remarks
last Sunday morning. Rev. CharlAs
R. Tyner of SL Luke's church said
that if the restrictions were taken
off the social activities of the Uni
versity there would be no need for
a Robins' campaign or any other
spiritual revival. At present the
student can only indulge in social
festivities on Friday and Satur
day night, and naturally makes the
most of it, with the result that
when Sunday morning comes he
is too tired to attend church and
if he does he is not in that frame
of mind in -which he can derive
the most benefit from the service
and naturally his spiritual life is
weakened.
"Why not, he asked, take the
crutches away from the student,
throw him upon his own reeponsi
' bllitj and hold him accountable
at the examinations? Why not
encourage the student to attend
church? Make conditions so that
' he will not have to be out till the
THE FORUM
Editor Dally Nebraskan.
The University of Nebraska bas pro
tected its students from the hold-up
prices of downtown restaurants and
cafes by starting the Unl Cafeteria.
Why not break up the laundry trust
by putting a laundry plant into the
plans for a greater university?' When
all the town laundries unite "In re
straint of trade" and hold up the
poor college boy for twenty cents
every time he has his best "Sunday-go-to-meeting"
6hlrt laundered, it Is
about time for the University to step
In and call a halt. If "Cleanliness is
next to Godliness." it would be not in
the least improper for the school
authorities to make real cleanliness a
financial possibility.
A STUDENT.
A Criticism Answered
The Forum article in The Daily Ne
braskan yesterday was an unjust criti
cism of the great work accomplished
by the Robins meetings last week.
It seems almost incredible that a per
son at all familiar with the purpose of
the recent campaign could so unjust
ly find fault and should so misrepre
sent the facts.
Every minister of the gospel from
the time of Christ to the present day
has been what the writer of the article
scorned as a "professional soul-Baver."
Any man who devotes his life to the
spreading of Christianity must be con
sidered that, because that is his life
work, his profession. I differ from
Mr. Hixenbaugh because I hope that
the "professional soul-savers" will not
"have to seek other employment" The
world needs them today as much as
ever before, and, may I say, Nebraska
University has not yet reached that
so-called advanced state of civilization
when It can well do without them.
As to the result accomplished by
this campaign, Mr. Hixenbaugh is en
tirely at sea. The campaign was not
an "indifferent success." It was a
great success. Last Sunday seven hun
dred men listened to every word from
the lips of Mr. Robins, that leader of
men, who spoke ihe great truths con
cerning God and man. That is how the
campaign was an "indifferent success."
Among those who were there, the con
sensus of opinion was that it was a
good influence, perhaps Mr. Hixen
baugh was not there. In fact the trend
of his article would lead one to be
lieve that he had failed to attend any
of the meetings and was speaking en
tirely from a belief previously formed.
And when Mr. Hixenbaugh applied
the epithet "vulgar" to Mr. Sunday he
again judged unjustly. Is it not strange
that the legislature of the state of
New Jersey last week invited Mr. Sun
day to address its body so that they
might hear bis "vulgarisms"? Is it
not strange that five thousand civilized
people tried to crowd into the building
after its seating capacity was ex
hausted In order to hear his "vulgar"
remarks?
In conclusion, as a student of this
institution, I sincerely hope another
campaign is held next year similar to
this one and that the results will be as
great
