TUESDAY, MAY 8. 1923 MORAL EXCUSE The theory has been advanced that the reason students cheat is that our educational system is at fault. Can it be that disheony of this sort is exasperable by such an excuse? What is the difference between stalking a roommate's jewelry and his theme? Is there a difference between physical theft and intellectual theft? Certainly there is very little difference as for as the dishonesty of it is concerned. Yet when one says he would not tolerate such a thing as the former theft and then says that taking a roommate's theme is excusable because his instructor is making the course too hard for him and that he can't write themes himself, what are you to think of that individual? By the time a student comes to the University he is supposed to have reached a point of development where he can control himself. To say that a student was honest before he came to college and turned on his principles after he saw other people doing it is absurd. If he has strength of character he can and will do his work the best he knows how and will take the consequences. The faculty are not policemen. It is not their business to go around and see that students get their education. They offer their bit to the students in the best way they can. Then it is a matter of the student leaving it or taking it. This is merely a result of large schools. It can be no other way. The instructors can not be expected to give personal conferences in large classes. In some place this is possible but in most cases it is impossible. From the moral standpoint there is no excuse for dishonesty no matter under what stress one is placed. The principle holds in all walks of life and here at the University where we are supposed to be 'a rather selected lot we should stand on a higher plane than the common run of life. WHEN YOU GET WHAT YOU WANT Human nature is such a funny thing. Last night after the Lawrence audience had enjoyed itself so thoroughly and had shown in such a fine way that it had been enjoying itself at the play at the Bowersock, and was even praised by the actor for the fine way the people had responded—after all that some of them spoiled it. The actor gave a curtain talk at the end of the third act. It was full of philosophy and good will. If the people in the audience had but remained in their seats about three minutes longer instead of one third of them jumping to their feet and beginning putting on their coats, they probably would have brought Otis Skimmer back on the stage for a second curtain talk which he gives to such audiences as he had last night. It would have been altogether different from the first speech. It is said that he gives it in the dialect he uses in the play. Why were people so anxious to leave? It seems as though they thought they had all they could get and that they need show no more appreciation. They got what they wanted, and they wanted what they got, but after that, they were through Appreciation? FOR THE MORE RETIRING How charming is the privacy of the lunch counter restaurant—the kind where the food is prepared in the dining room and where the waiters shout their orders to the waite-tenped chef! The other evening having just returned from a long walk, we entered such an eating establishment, hung our hat on a poreal peg and seated ourselves at one of the white enamel tables. Feeling the need of substantial food and having the best intentions to go straight home immediately after dining, we gave the waiter an order for a steak smothered in onions. We then settled back in our chair to wait in happy anticipation. But the ensuing events completely ruined our repast. The waiter did a perfect "about face," swelled his chest to huge proportions, and bellowed forth the humiliating details of our order. The chef like a sing-song song repeated the whole so-called truth. The evening diners, the elite of the University, gasped and turned accusing eyes upon us; the entire restaurant seemed to pulsate with the shane of it. Then, in truth, we blushed for our indiscretion. At length the steak and onions came—very good food, too. But the mischief had been done. We ate with downcast eyes and hurried left the restaurant. The next time we order such a posterian request in that sort of catehouse, we shall give the waiter twenty-five cents to go to the center of the room before shouting out the disgraceful menu. In that way the evidence will not be so fixed upon us alone; others in the vicinity may be equally implicated. At The Theater By Ben Hibbs Tarkington and Skinner—a capital combination that, for an evening of entertainment! "Mister Antonie," a four-act drama, with Ods Skinner as the lead, was presented at Monto Corandonio Comerardonio, was presented at the Bowersock last night. It is the second line this season that one of Booth Tarkington's plays has been given in Lawrence, "The Intimate" has been staged here several months ago. But "Mister Antonio" is a piece of work strictly different from "The Inmate Strangers." It lacks nothing of Tarkington's keen wit and wholeheartedness, and plays it is not all comedy. The plot is a bit heavier and a little pathos is mixed with the laughter. As presented here, "Mister Antonio" is decidedly the best piece of Tarkington's work. Lawrence has seen for some time. Of course, the credit for the success of the drama goes as much to the interpreter of the play as to its maker. Otis Skimmer has been called supreme n his type of work—the presentation of happy-joy vagaions, seeing his acting, an easy ability to praise the praise is justified; for just as he "made" the picture "Kismet," so he "makes" Antonio, the Italian hardy-gudman, a living person for the audience. Mr. Skinner's poise on the stage, the homely philosophy of the characters represented, and his clever certainty at the end of the third act completely won the audience to him. Mr. Skinner is wise in that he does not attempt to carry the whole load of the play upon his own shoulders. In the cast of "Mister Antonio" are the finished actors, Marion Manley, as she plays her role, favor with the audience, as did John MacMillan, in the role of the pompous town marshall. Robert Harrison, representing Joe, the half-witted partner of Antonio, was more than funny. His ridiculous voice and charisma made Antonio failed to "bring down" the house. One character that seemed to jar a bit was Joseph Brennan, in the role of Milton Jorny, the mayor of Roxbury, who agreed to give an agreeable character to present, and hence a difficult task. But the character seemed to lack something—a certain self-assurance in the second act, a ravish display of wrath and fear in the last acts. There has been a criticism that the theme of the play is overdone, that the "Main Street" conditions picture itself as an ideals idea at the basis of the drama has been overworked during the last two years. The criticism is perhaps true to some extent, and yet one cannot help wishing that every complacent, but not always beautiful, in America could see Ols Skinner and his cast present "Mister Antonio."
