PAGE TWO THE DAILY IOWAN STATE UNIVERSITY OF IOWA Tuesday, April 29, 1919 [picture of THE MEN'S GLEE CLUB WHICH WILL GIVE ITS ANNUAL CONCERT AT THE AUDITORIUM TOMORROW NIGHT.] 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 Iowan 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.

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 Night Editors Elizabeth Hendee Elsie Katz NO LONGER POPULAR Have you thought about this summer, what you will do? In two years of war the idea of an idle summer was lost, and it seems unlikely that it can regain its former popularity. Once having worked, persons find continued pleasure-seeking a bore. At the University one can complete an entire quarter's work in the summer session of eleven weeks. If a student is not going to hold down a job this summer, or if dad doesn't need his son on the farm or mother her daughter in the kitchen, he or she will do well to continue work at the University. Summer life here is not so unattractive as it has been painted. With the river and tennis courts for the cool early morning and late evening, with outdoor dramatic artists, with lecturers of note, with special conferences which attract men renouned in their own field, there is plenty to keep the student's mind off sweltering weather. Last year it was patriotic duty to attend college in the summer. This year it is not a duty at all, just a plain opportunity which students are growing to feel they cannot overlook. Unless the student is approaching a nervous breakdown, it takes more nerve than most of them can summon to admit that they intend to pass the entire summer in idelness or traveling about on dad's money. Olive Kay Martin, instructor in the romance language department, is entertaining her mother, Mrs. A. F. Martin of Chicago for a few days. NEWMAN to MEET Newman club will initiate Thursday evening at the K. C. hall. Refreshments will conclude the social. WHAT OTHERS THINK WOMEN-OR MEN, WHICH? It seems that some of our fair coeds have shown some marked masculine characteristics, rather suddenly, if what was shown at the All Fool's Jubliee means anything. It seems that some rules have been removed, and the University women have been permitted to give expression to some of their feelings, the main one of which appears to be the desire of appearing upon the stage in men's clothes. Moreover, it seems that the organization calling itself the "Women's League," displayed this feeling most prominently. Now I wonder if we are to learn from this incident, that the greatest desire of many women is to be manlike? Are the girls of this great University, who are training to be leaders of women fostering this masculine like attitude? Does the Women's League as well as some of the other women's organizations have as their ideals the neglect of the training which makes for a real American Woman and the pursuit of those things which naturally belong to man's work? We are never surprised at anything we see at the Englert, but when we attend an entertainment, even though it is called an all Fools Jubilee, given by University people, in whom we expect to see some degree of refinement and modesty, we would hardly expect to see such a show as that put on by "Mr. Jiggs and Company." Many of us men are spending several years at this University endeavoring to became Lawyers, Dentists, Engineers and Doctors. We have always hoped that some day we might be able to ask some of you to be our equal partners for the rest of our lives. We have always expected to find in you a degree of modesty, refinement and education. We have expected that you will be able to play a part in the world as all important as our own. We have expected in you a partner, and a companion. You cannot be all this unless you play your own part and play it well. You can never expect to be a "Mrs. Lawyer," or a "Mrs. Doctor," if you persist in developing these characteristics which are so far from feminine like. If you want to be a "Social It", if you want to ride into "Old Maids Paradise" on an old maid's chariot, a mountain canary, just keep on trying to be a man, instead of preparing yourself to be his equal partner and companion, an American Woman. A Medic. Dean Raymond will give a lecture on "Accomplishments of Engineers" in the physics lecture room Thursday morning at 10 o'clock. His talk will be illustrated by slides and will deal with practically all of the major departments of engineering. Sigma Delta Chi, honorary journalistic fraternity, will meet tonight at 7:15 in room 13 liberal arts. Dick Hartinger visited at the Phi Kappa Psi house for a few days this week. TEACHERS WANTED For all departments of school work. School officials will soon elect teachers for next year. A MAXIMUM OF SERVICE AT A MINIMUM COMMISSION RATE. Commission 4 per cent.
