Cambridge Debaters Arc Impressed
With Industry and Efficiency Here
Three young Englishmen, the
Cambridge debate team, saw the cam
pus of the University of Nebraska
Monday, and were impressed with
the efficiency and Industry ,wiich
they saw everywhere about them. Mr.
jl A. King-Hamilton, Herbert
Lionel Elvin, and Hugh Mackintosh
Foot, Cambridge debaters, were
most impressed with the coliseum,
the stadium and Morrill hall. They
compared the stadium with the sta
dium at Wembley, and thought Ne
braska's the-better. Mr. King-Hamilton
said that Nebraska's stadium was
the most magnificent one that they
had seen.
In Morrill hall, the debaters lin
gered over the fossil displays, and
were surprised to find that teaching
of evolution was permitted in the
schools of the state. The Dayton trial
had received as much publicity in
England as it had in the United
States, and they thought that evolu-

"You start work much earlier than
we do and work harder than we do,"
said Mr. Foot in reply to a request
for his impressions of American uni
versity life. He added that there arc
very few lectures in the morning, so
that a Cambridge university student
seldom has any classes before one
o'clock in the afternoon. There are
few lectures, sometimes one or two
each day, and cutting may be done
with impunity.
Women in English universities are
over-chaperoned and regulated. Ten
o'clock in the evening is the time
when the doors are closed, although
at times, they are left open for an
additional half-hour. Leave is granted
to remain until a later hour in spe
cial cases. Women who are taking
university work are not permitted to
go to the theater except in groups
of four or more, properly chaper
oned. A regulation is in effect at Cam
bridge and Oxford permitting student
cars on the campus only between the
hours of one and eight o'clock. As a
consequence the villages about Cam
bridge are very much patronized as
places in which one may keep a car
in defiance of university rules.
The student life at Cambridge is
that of care-free bachelors. The men
are as carefully regulated in their
lives at school as are the women", the
hours being supervised by the au
thorities, although as it was brought
out in the interview, "There are
ways of evading the rule."
At Ames, the debaters witnessed
their first American football game.
They were surprised at the organi
zation that existed even as to the

cheering. The sport of Rugby, which
is English football, draws large
crowds, as many as forty thousand
attending the annual contest between
Cambridge and Oxford. Seats are
hard to get and the rivalry is keen
between the supporters of the two
teams. Cheering is spontaneous, and,
added Mr. Sheldon Tefft, Nebraska's
Rhodes scholar, "They make more
noise than we do." English colleges
have no yells or school songs.
Dining clubs fill the place in Eng
lish life that is occupied by the frat
ernities and sororities in the Amer
ican university life. Dining is very
popular in England. Coffee-drinking,
too, is a diversion of English univer
sity students and is much indulged
in, in the early morning hours. The
debaters complimented the Ameri
cans on their ability to make coffee,
but had to admit that our tea has not
much to recommend it.
The debaters admitted a fondness
for "hot dogs". They remarked on
the prevalence of waffles as a break
fast dish; pancakes in England being
a "sweet" or dessert. American ice
cream appealed to their taste as be
ing far superior to the English pro
duct. The American woman was neither
censured nor commended. Mr. King
Hamilton said that more long hair
was found in America than in Eng
land. The "Eton crop" has supplan
ted the boyish "bob" in favor, and
demands a shorter cut than the for
mer favorite. There is no indication
in England that short hair is going
out of favor.
Only twice have the debaters seen
women smoking here, once at a res
taurant, and once on the train, which
led them to make the statement that
Americans indulge their "vices" in
private.
No English university has a daily
paper. The Englishmen were much
impressed with the Daily Nebraskan
and at the real news it contained.
The London press is too dominating
to permit college daily papers, and
the only attempt at journalism in
these colleges is a weekly bulletin,
that cannot be called a "newspaper",
since it does not contain much of
news value.
"We never believed Pittsburg
would be so indiscreet as to' permit
itself to be beaten four to nothing,"
replied Mr. Elvin to the question as
to his opinion of the worlds' series.
He further explained that in Eng
land, baseball was a children's game,
played with a racket and soft ball,
and called "grounders".
Hockey, which in America is more
of a woman's game, is popular among
both sexes in England. Mixed match
es are played and are, according to
Mr. King-Hamilton, "hard for the
men, who have to be gentlemen
enough not to strike the women when
a feminine player has used her stick
on a masculine ankle". Basketball is
a woman's game in England, and
the Englishmen were amazed to find
the importance given to the game
here, and the huge space which is
devoted to it in the coliseum.

Laugh and the world laughs with

and then, a thrill or two that brings
your heart up into your throat like

theory on which Victor Mapes arid
Willie Collier must have worked
when they wrote the big Broadway
success, "The- Hottentot" which is to
be the offering extraordinary of the
players at the Playhouse theater all

The result is a play that enjoyed a
phenomenal run in New York and is
considered one of the best, if not
the best vehicle of its New York
season.

Girls Learn Child Care Using Home
Management House for Laboratory
The average student mistakes the
home management house of the de
partment of economics for one of
the dormitories, but those who know,
recognize it as a, laboratory in home
making experiments. Inside it are
found all the modern conveniences
that lighten the work of the modern
house-wife. Students also care for a
three-months old baby boy.
The home management house of
the department of home econom
ics has existed on the campus of the
University of Nebraska for seven
years. The present home is in charge
of Miss Ruby Simpson, an instructor
in the department of home econom
ics, and a graduate of the University
of Nebraska. She has had charge of
the home for the past two years. She
is much interested in her work at the
house and gives it the greater share
of her time. She is the official "mo
ther" of the family which consists
of six women taking work in the de
partment, who spend six weeks out
of their junior or senior year at the
home, doing the work and learning
to "keep house".
The work of keeping the house is
divided among the 6ix women, during
the school year. A group is main
tained at the house during one term
of summer school. Each girl has very
definite duties. One girl is entirely
responsible for. the baby's care. An
other keeps the house clean and in
order. A third is responsible for plan
ning the meals and marketing. The
marketing is done according to a bud
get which is made out by the whole
"family", and is the result of care
ful consideration on the part of each
one in the group.
Two girls prepare the meals, while
another is responsible for the social
life of the family. The duty of the
latter is to provide entertainment
within the home so that there is no
need for going outside to seek
amusement. The entertainment de
pends on the ingenuity of the girl in
r OR almost half a century instructors in engineering and
drawing have used and recommended Higgins' Drawing Inks.
The entire faculty will appreciate Higgins' Writing Inks
Higgins' Eternal Black, and Higgins' Red, which lend them
selves to many uses.
Professor William Lyon Phelps of Yale says "Higgins'
Eternal Ink writes jet black and dries instantly, need
ing no blotter. It is the only ink for the pen that I use."
Higgins' Eternal will appeal to you
also, both for personal use and for
students' themes, reports, etc.
Writes jet black, never fades and
cannot be eradicated. Fine for foun

Since no family is complete with
out a baby, Robert Earl McAllister
makes the home management house a
finished home. He is loaned to, the
home by the Nebraska Childrens'
Home society in Omaha. For the
school year, he is in charge of tho
girls at the house. At the end of that
time, and when the house is closed
during the summer term, he will be
returned to the home, and will be put
out for adoption. He is a lovable
little chap, and is, according to his
foster mothers, the "best little baby
in the world". He was asleep when
sought for an interview, and could
not be disturbed.
