Since local clothiers have shouted the praises
oi tailcoats, white waistcoats and silk hats,
some innocent students are weeping salty tears
Dccau.sc they are being exploited. Many let
ters, ranging in temperature from freezing to
boiling, have been thrown at the editor in
condemnation of Nebraska's attempt to ape
Paris.
Why the hullaballooT Strictly formal attire
is not demanded for university parties. Those
who boast the tailcoats and accessories will be
in the minority. Dainc fashion has not passed
an iron bound deeree that the intelligent uni
versity man must bend uudor the weight of an
opera lid: the matter is entirely up to the
tastes of individuals.
Those who believe that tailcoats should be
worn have the privilege of wearing them, but
there is no need for the juvenile howl that has
been raised. The Nebra-skan is not interested
in student opinions on the matter, since our
knowledge of style is deplorable.
Vesterdav our friend John Ri-ntl.-v motA.t
The Nebraskan's editorial on rah-rahisin in his
"I May Be Wrong" splurge. Some day
Brother Bcntley may forget that the editor
slipped far enough to write a play, but he will
never forget that college editors are "boys."
Pure and simple; particularly the lattrr.
do with our iliaiuetir. SluJiiils entering col
lege aro atill in a very impressionable age. The
poise and charm of maturer years are gained
during the years a normal young person spends
in college. Send n student to n college with
a beautiful and quiet campus, "placid lakes,
grassy hills, and ivy covered halls of learning,"
and tho surroundings cannot help but leave
their stamp of culture upon him.
The quiet beauty of his surroundings be
comes inherent in him and he goes out into the
world with a consciousness of what is in good
taste and what is crude. On the other hand,
send a student to a campus such as ours. What
is there here that will add to his appreciation
of beauty? A noisy campus, crowded in be
tween the railway trucks and business section.
Milk buildings located with about as much plan
as a patch of mushrooms, landscaping entireiy
lacking, and with as queer a juniblo of archi
tecture as was ever gathered together in one
place, is not going to be much of an aid.
Of course, the appearance of the campus may
not affect to a very considerable extent the
quality of the knowledge dispensed within the
buildings; yet, we are always auspicious of
anything ramshackle. Fond memories of this
campus could bo nothing less than a nightmare.
The students of this college may be a success
in later life, but it would be a safe venture
that the suceess is more material than anything
else. A beautiful campus helps to make a good
education broader. H. H.

A Crisis in
Student Government,
; This afteraoonthe Student council will as
semble for the purpose of adopting, within the
gjxup, a new constitution. Members of the
constitutional committee have been engaged in
violent controversies since the subject was first
initiated. The committee will lay its decisions
r before the council and stand by for a fusilade
f of verbal shrapnel.
VsL.-fijre may wonder why the council is having
such a bad time in the formulation of a guiding
document. The reason is quite simple.
-First, if the council is to increase its powers
itT must find some powers to adopt. In doing
this it treads heavily on the toes of the A. W.
S. board, for that worthy group must sacrifice
some of its hard earned authority to the
supreme student congress.
If members cf the A. W. S. board were inter
ested In the welfare of the Student council they
would be less jealous of their modest collection
of privileges. Their president is a member of
m the council, but she acts more as a special
li TTlT"fCiiTlt ati-A lt 1 Vm A W Q fVori fie fi
-delegate from the student body. She champions
Jprith feminine ferocity the A. V. S. cause.
s ,.We sympathise with Miss Gaylord, but fear
that her loyalty will be of no avail The Stu
dent council must prosper, even at the expense
of the coed senate.
Then Alan Williams, father of the nonfrater
nity movement, is Johnny-on-the-spot to see
that the Barb council loses none of its prestige
to the Student council. Like Miss Gaylord, he
is more interested in his own organization than
""Tfi-the TO nil PuTTTt which he is also a member.
Lest these valiant warriors be condemned too
bounteously for their defensive actions, we
must admit that the Student council has shown
little ability to handle its affairs so far in the
university's history. Whereas the A. W. S.
board is well established in its realm and has
shown itself fully capable of handling its own
business, the Student council is a floundering
child. The Barb council, though a compara-
lively youthful group, has managed iis affairs
quite cffieientlj-, making a success of univer
sity parties where the Student council failed.

i The Nebraskan is interested in the Student

Another student letter, censored by the edi

decent looking campus when free lunch stands
and 2 o'clock nights are instituted. Its author
suspects that the new state capitol drained the
state's resources to such an extent that new
buildings will never reach the University of
Nebraska campus.

Campus Beauty.
TO THE EDITOR : !
In one of Tuesday's editorials there appeared '
the sentence. "Stone walls do not a prison j
make, nor beautiful scenerv a college." Lit-1
orally this may be bo; but doesn't beautiful
scenery make a good college a better college?
Doubtless just as good children can b
reared in a home with unpainted exterior and
yard devoid of grass and shrubbery as can be
reared in a home having a beautiful exterior,
but is it the usual case? Beauty has a wider
influence on us than we in our rush realize.
Regardless of our consciousness of it, the influ
ence remains. Environment has a great deal to
