A Champion Against Us
Attention, Fellows and Girls! Out
of our midst, with boots and spurs,
and N. B. V. blazoned upon his
shield, rises a champion of the rent-a-Fords.
A man of indviduality un
doubtedly and one who has the cour
age to assert it. He calls attention
to the fact that the inherent right?
of the rent-a-Ford men have been
imposed upon, that we, the students
have done the imposing since we have
not listened to their side of the ar
gument. He reminds us that they
must keep open 365 days of the
year, that in spite of the increased
business or demand the most promi
nent dealer in Lincoln received less
in the way of profits last year than
any year previous. Their overhead
expenses and investment is very
great They are fair-minded, for it
is their Honest intention to serve
the students as cheaply as possible.
Students are supporters of any
courageous assertion of one's indi
viduality and would not resent that
but there is one thing we also like:
logical reasoning and discretion. I
know of many who are itching to
answer N. B. V. and, being one of
them, I am going to attempt to show
him that he has put his foot into a
mess of labor and effort when he
attempts to champion the rent-a-
Fords. And incidentally to assert
that he seems to be doing just the
thing that he accuses us of doing,
listening to one side of the argument,
for remember he states that he in
terviewed the rent-a-Ford dealers,
which fact is not so pertinent except
that it is strange he should go to
such trouble. However, we thank
him for it as it has opened a new
field in which to expand.
"Personally," says X. B. V., "I be
lieve that the renting of Fords is
one of the greatest social evils of the
university. But, since it is custom
which will continue I think we have
no right to call the local dealers
robbers for it is their honest inten
tion to serve the students as chearly
as possible."
X. B. V. put too much in his con
clusion which he should have had
in one of his preceding statements,
because ag they are written it is just
the same as saying: "Just because a
man is going to continue to throw

rorks at you every day is no reason
that you should call him a bum and
a big nuisance." In other words
throwing rocks, in principle, is like
the greatest social evil, N. B. V.
speaks of, only more concrete; and
continuing to throw them is like the
continuance of the social evil; and
therefore, according to that brilliant
logic, we should neither be able to
call a man a bum or call the rent-a-Ford
dealers robbers. Of course I
realize that there is a certain con
crete personal element in being the
recipient of these rocks that there
may not be in being the recipient of e
part of the evils of a social evil.
But now to get down to serious
ness, I'd like to ask N. B. V. whore
his sense of independence and dis
cretion is. He admits that 'he rent
ing of Fords is an evil and yet he
deliberately lies down in the mud
and says it must continue. . Get up
with the rest of us, out of your bed
of least resistance, and help us to get
rid of that evil. What people or
what nation can hope to progress who
tamely submit themselves to the ef
fects of the things or social institu
tions they know to be evil. We d
not want you to fol'.vv our move
ment if you don't think it is right,
but we do want you to think and
see our side of the argument.
If we feel that the practice of
renting Fords is neither economical
or a good thing in our institution, is
it imposing on anyone's inherent
rights to suppress that practice? Did
the rent-a-Ford companies think
about listening to our side of the ar
gument before they raised their
rates?
This question is to the point wheth
er you realize it or not. Who ask-
edshese rent-a-Ford companies to es
tablish themselves in Lincoln? The
students? No! Several individuals
saw the opportunity to reap a good
rprofit out of some such business so
it grew up, and grew fast. And now
just because a dozen or at least ten
of those companies have found that
the field is either too crowded or
conditions do not suit their taste be
cause profits are not big, or it might
be better to say big enough, we, the
students, who did not ask them to
come into our social sphere, must
accept the burden of their financial
difficulties by agreeing to pay; a
higher rate. Not only that, but the
rent-a-Fords are not aiding the uni
fication of the students in the uni
versity and one must remember that
Nebraska is growing. " Shall we al
low any tendency to isolation to in
crease?
Our social expenses are great
enough without paying higher rates.
A man from another university has
called attention to the fact that stu
dent bodies do not fight an increase
in the price of books. If we did, a
great many EDUCATORS would
brand us as renegades who were sim
ply offering defiance because we
were an unscholastic bunch of mod
erns. We would have the strong
book companies to meet and what
would one or two university bodies
do? It would take time to show
we were sincere in our movement;
brt here in our social life is some
thing which is not too great for us
'to meet and one university body can
! hope to do something for itself,
(Furthermore, books are essential to
jour education and social attitude
at least some of them are.
Are rent-a-Fords? Ask yourself.
Lastly, if the prominent dealer did
not make any greater profit with in-
' creased demand which called for a
I heavier investment that does not con
cern us. If he is not able to get
greater returns it means that the
field is overcrowded, or he is run
ning hig business wrong. I do not
believe that the rent-a-Ford dealers,
, unless their business principles are
j different than other business men's
are trying to keep prices as low as
they can for the students thereby
cutting off a part of the profit they
! might make. The fact that they are
willing to combine shows what I mean
in that respect. That action sup
pressed competition and that, if you
please, is the life of the business and
trade of our nation. Have ' you
thought of that, N. B. V?
There has been an injustice done
to the Farm Hause fraternity, whom
it was said was not supporting the
cause. Mr. Cook of that fraternity,
yesterday expressed his disappoint
ment over that accusation and made
it plain that his fraternity is behind
the movement It all goes to prove
that the student body, as a whole, is
! behind the movement. Remember,
fellows and girls, that tonight begins
'another weekend. Let's resolve
'again whether or not we have the
right to rent Fords and whether it
will continue as N. B. V. says it will.

Campus Crooks
Say, folks, why not sweep our own
doormat first? Why kick about be
ing cheated on rent-a-Ford rates,
when cheating in being condoned,
yes,' even lauded by our own stu
dents, on our own campus? Do you
know that a large percentage of stu
dents brand you as a dumb prude if
you neglect to cheat in an exam?
They may even "rake you over the
coals" if you decline them the ve
questod assistance. And of course,
it is taken for granted that they got
credit for the work which their neigh
bor did.
The other day a young man went
to an instructor and registered a
complaint about a low exam grade.
And not without reason. Why
shouldn't he get a 95? It was quite
an effort to keep one eye on the in
structor and divide the other be
tween his notes and his pnper while
making a verbatim copy.
It is not so much the sign of dis
honesty that concerns me, for crooks
we've always had with us. But it is
the extent of it and the bold attitude
with which these "crooks" defend
and advertise themselves
No, I'm not deploring the present
generation. They're no worse than
their predecessors. If you don't be
lieve this go to some government of
ficial and hand him $100 for the
privilege of disposing of a little
booze. But what "get's me" is that
this present generation boasts of its
progress and simultaneously ignores
the very foundation material hon
esty.
Well, if education is preparation,
I wonder just what this preparation
is headed for?

the finest line of
Fasicy Slippers
in Lincoln!
WE believe that you will not find a more varied assort
ment of fine footwear in fancy styles than we are
showing.
Fashions in slippers this spring are unusually beautiful, and sponsor
light toned kid leathers and combinations of light and dark colors.
PARCHMENT, IVORY, PEARL AND OPAL GRAY are favorite
shades and are especially delicate and beautiful with the new spring
frocks. These colors are many times finished with stitching, piping
or applique in darker tones. BLACK is smart as always and is
quite often finished with trimming of light leather.
Exquisitely Simple Designs
are smartest this season. The intricate cut and patterns of preced
ing seasons have given place to distinctive, simple pure lines which
are light and delicate in effect. Decoration is in the form of fancy
appliques, stitching or daintv buckles rather than in straps or
cutouts, D'ORSAY, STEP IN AND SINGLE STRAP styles are
very smart and heels are extremely high and slender. Delicate
high arches, medium round toes and general daintiness of effect
characterize their style.
We carry many fine lines of footwear, of fine workmanship
and modish design. They will afford you long satisfaction
and service.
