PAGE TWO THE DAILY IOWAN STATE UNIVERSITY OF IOWA Sunday, April 20, 1919 THE DAILY IOWAN A morning paper published for the period of the war four times a week - Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday - by The Daily Iowa Publishing company at 103 Iowa avenue, Iowa City Member Iowa College Press Entered as second class matter at the post office of Iowa City, Iowa Subscription Rate $2.00 per year BOARD OF TRUSTEES C. H. Weller, chairman, Gretchen Kane, secretary, E. M. McEwen, E. S. Smith, Alice E. Hinkley, M. Elizabeth Hendee, Mary Anderson EDITORIAL STAFF MILDRED E. WHITCOMB, Editor-in-chief Telephone, Black 1757; Office Hours - 8-12; 1-6 daily, Room 14, L. A. Building Rowena Wellman - Managing Editor Associate Editor Ralph E. Overholser News Editor Eileen Galvin Exchange Editor Nancy Lamb Humorous Editor M. Elizabeth Hendee Sports Editor Leon H. Brigham BUSINESS STAFF ROMOLA LATCHEM - Business manager Edward Chamberlain - Advertising Mgr. Telephone 935; Office Hours- 3-5 daily, 103 Iowa Ave "I have never had a policy. I have simply tried to do what seemed best each day as each day came." -- Lincoln BE HAPPY TO DO IT Tomorrow we show our colors. Tomorrow our fellows will know whether we are loyal American with our country's interest at heart, or poor weak men without a country. By our presence at the liberty loan mass meeting of our collegeg, and by our willingness and eagerness to sign the pledge card will we be rated in terms of our patriotism. Buying a bond will entail sacrifice to most students. But it should take little courage to make an immediate sacrifice which year by year will grow into a better investment. Sacrifice would be useless, of course, did no good result. Our brave boys, thirty-eight of them, sacrificed their lives that peace migt come, that little nations might live unafraid of molestation, that our democracy might be the property of the nations of the world. Whatever sacrifice we make will seem infinitely small beside their lives, especially when we recollect that we are not only benefitting our country but ourselves. So let us not subscribe with the feeling of martyrs, with the mien of reluctant donors, but with the happy feeling that comes with the knowledge of a secure investment made and a duty gladly performed. Let us smile when we sign our card, and thank our solicitor for giving us the opportunity. -- EASTER Easter- an Easter with peace shining through every sun ray, reflected in the tranquil, happy faces of the church-goers -- hat is the Easter of today, of 1919. For the first time in two years, Americans will truly observe the anniversary of Christ's resurrection. For the first time since 1914, the world will keep the spirit of Easter. No thought of that growing horror across the seas, of homes ruined and bottom of column, advertisement SABIN'S EDCATIONAL EXCHANGE Founded 1893 A. M. M. DORNON, Mangager The most widely patronized, because the most reliable Teachers Agency in the Middle West. Territory from Mississippi River to Pacific Coast FLYNN BUILDING DES MOINES, IOWA advertisement The Exclusive Features of Newberg's Photographs Make them Popular Newberg's Studio top of second column families broken, will mar this twentieth of April. No fear for the lads in the trenches will fill the day with shuddering premonitions. Instead, the world rejoices in the knowledge that there will be no more fighting, that the nations are leaguing together to enforce peace. Many soldiers have already returned to the United States in time to celebrate the day with their families. Many others are about to sail, or at least are safe and well in France. As for those brave men who will never return- Easter will be no less truly theirs, for by their death, they helped preserve those principles for which Christ died. And so, in every heart today, there will be deeper and more significant thoughts of Easter and the resolve to keep the day always as symbolical of that peace which has been secured at so great a price. YOUR LOSS AND THEIR LOSS The University has organizations and organizations, and, every day or two, new organizations. Some of them are pleasure-seeking; others are pleasure-producing. If one is so fortunate as to belong to a pleasure-seeking society he can expend little effort and show himself a rip-roaring good time. As to showing other persons a good time, well, that isn't to be considered. The other type of organization means for the member, work and perspiration, and occasionally, at critical times, sweat. The pleasure-producing organization is grasping: it demands heavily and more heavily of the time and talents of its members. It claims sacrifices; it is never satisfied. But it works for the good of all; selfish motives it does not possess. Such an organization is the Women's Glee club which gives its first concert of the year Wednesday night. The women have worked, perspired, yes, and sweat, in preparation of this program. And they have achieved results such as you will hear if you attend. Women's Glee club concerts are always high class, the few who never miss them will aver. The only thing the least disappointing in them is the diminutive audience they frequently draw. If this whole program were weak and farcical, it would be up to the students to support the concerts. But, far from mediocrity, they have always been well planned and well given. The men of the University are the chief offenders in this situation. Alwasys the women rush the men's concerts and fill the auditorium. Is it not reasonable to expect the same support from the men for the same effort expended and teh same quality of program? If you miss the women's concert Wednesday night you will be the losers. That is not sad if you were the only losers. But the glee club itself loses the inspiration continued next column of a full auditorium, the only thing which can bring out the best a speaker or singer has to produce. IOWA IN TENNIS MEET Chicago Meets Iowa on Local Courts Try-outs for Varsity Soon A tennis meet with Chicago to be played here the second week in May has been arranged by "Dad" Schoeder, of the department of physical education. This is the first time Iowa has been matched with a conference team and the first time since 1900 that Iowa has taken on any other school in the net game.
