IS

SHOWN

The date for the 1920 Stroller play
has been set for Thursday, April 8.
Seats wdll be placed on sale Tuesday,
March 23, In the Stroller room. See
Preston Cherry for reservations and
MAKE THAT DATE!
"The Climbers" is being rehearsed
every night and is rounding into shape
in such a manner that as far as the
cast is concerned it would be ready
for presentation in a few days. However, It is Impossible to get the Opera
House at an earlier date, as professional performances have been booked weeks in advance. For this reason
also, the play has been scheduled on
a week night instead of Friday or Saturday night, as has been the annual
custom.
Other Towns Wants Them.
Efforts are being made to get the
Strollers to book the play in several
neighboring towns before it is presented in Lexingtonl This should give op
portunity for rough spots to be pol
ished off and make the presentation
on the Lexington stage as near per
fection as is possible in case the
Strollers accede to these requests.
April 8 must be the biggest Uni
versity night of the year! The wide
diversity in the selection of characters
for the play from every organization
and fraternity on the campus, is caus
ing marked rivalry in desire to show
interest and pride in those members
who were so fortunate as to make the
Stroller cast.
Blocks of Seats Popular.
The suggestion that each organiza
tion and fraternity engage certain sections of seats, block them off and decorate with fraternity colors, has become popular. All boxes have been
taken, and several blocks of seats
have been 3poken for. Those fraternities that desire to be "in the swim"
must get busy and make arrangements
for sections, or they will be very
much "out of it" on University night
when they find themselves hidden
away and their fraternities in the
background.
There seems to be more pronounced

interest among the faculty this year
than ever before, and the Strollers arc
looking forward to seeing strong representation from that body In the audience.

are very clever, and it is difficult for
the committee to decide which Is the
most original and pleasing. The contest does not close until Saturday and
the committee will receive designs until six o'clock of that day. The winner will be announced the earlier part
of next week.

"The average college student is
handicapped by three deficiencies,"
said President McVey in his address,
"first a lack of ground on which to
hold, second, a lack of standards by
which to measure, and third a lack of
facility with which to move.
"Many of us make intimacies in
college quickly, without giving them
the proper tests. Is not the test of a
true friend his willingness to servo
without hopo or expectation of re
ward? Many friendships are made
on the basis of wasting time, borow- lng or the mere passing enjoyment of
company.
'There was nover a time," contin
ued the speaker, "when there were
so many diversions, so many enthusiasms as there are today. The student of today comes in contact with
many magazines, papers, views and
opinions. All of them can't be true,
part must bo and much of them may
bo true. Tho student must learn to
discriminate carefully In this wilder
ness of ideas.

The second meeting of the Woman's
League, which was recently organized
In the University, was held Monday,
fifth hour, in the Little Theater. Miss
Marguerite McLaughlin took the place
anof Mrs. McVey,
the speaker
nounced, and gave a talk on the purpose and value of the League.
Miss McLaughlin discussed the organization chiefly from the standpoint
of the town girl, who has hitherto
been unfortunately left out of things
to a certain extent, owing to the fact
that most of the college activities
center around the dormitories. As a
result, the girls of the dormitories
have been considered the leaders, and
in most instances,
the most active
members in the campus organizations.
The formation of an organization
which will Include in Its membership
both town girls and dormitory girls,
will serve to unify and strengthen the
work of tho whole body of women students, and benefit the dormitory
girls as well as those who live in
town.
After the talk, a motion was made
that Mary Van Meter should be elected temporary chairman of the league,
to serve in thai office until the regu-

lar olection of officers next month.
Miss Van Meter had previously been
elected chairman of a committee to
draw up a constitution for the organization. This constitution was read
at the meeting, and with one amendment, was adopted. The other business transacted was the appointment
by the chairman of n nominating committee to select tho candidates for tho
election of officers which will be held
in May.

University Musical Organization Visits Towns in
Western Part of
State
RECEIVE AN OVATION
The University Glee Club's eight- day trip to the Southwestern part of
the State was notable. In every town
and hamlet they were received with
enthusiasm.
In all they traveled about a thous
and miles by rail, fifty by water, and
gave nine programs.
The itinerary
took in Paducah, three times, Wingo;
Mayfleld, twice, Fulton, Smithland and
Benton.
In all three towns it was a case of
"standing room only."
Out in one
little town the people were even packed in the windows. In Benton posters
were put up throughout the town announcing their coming. K. L. Varney,
county agent, had a statement on the
poster to the effect that Professor
Carl Lampert, University musical department head, was a genius arid that
the Hedpath Chautauqua could not
compare with his organization.
H. E. Hicks, of Lexington, made a
hit with his guitar. His fame would
get to the towns before the Glee Club
arrived.
Immediately
the people
would say, "we want Hicks." He always played four or five encores. Anderson caused a sensation in Mayfleld,
his home town, by his base solo. His
was a case of Caesar returning after
his Gallic wars. The quartet was a
knockout.
At Hickman, Ky they followed the
Al Field minstrels and just preceded
the Columbia Saxophone sextet, yet
the auditorium was packed to over
flowing.
In Paducah they gave three
concerts and had three full houses.
At Fulton there were seven hundred
auditors in the auditorium to hear the
concert. They met many alumnae who
treated them like lords.
During the last few days of the trip
calls came in from many places, yet
eight days was not enough time to fill
all appointments on schedule. They
had to even leave out Murray, Ky.
The men who made the trip were:
A. E. Bell, Eminence;
H. E. Hicks,
Lexington; J. R. Curry, Maysvillo; A.
C. Smith, Lexington;
S. D. FIndley,
Frankfort; R. H. Craig, Lexington;

SOURCE OF GRATIFICATION.
Tho successful trip through the western part of the State from which
tho University Glee iClub has just returned, marks one of tho significant
forward steps which the University of Kentucky is making this year despite hindrances in the way of lack of funds and adequate equipment. The
men who made tho trip and Professor Lampert, who directed .them, are
being roundly congratulated on the fortunate result of the undertaking.
Seven of the principal towns of tho western part of the State were visited
and full houses were present for every program. In several places people
were turned away on account of insufficient capacity.
The welcome and support which the Glee iClub found on Its short tour
wore a gratifying indication of both the appreciation of music which exists
among the people in Kentucky, and the interest which they feel in the
University musicians. Music is a universal language and appeals alike to
tho wise and to the simple. The fact that the expedition was so successful should bring new impetus to the efforts of tho University to foster it.
It would not be too much to say that the benefits of this trip to tho
University cannot be measured in dollars and cents. It should promote a
spirit of finer comradeship between, the people of the Commonwealth and
the students of the University. (Contact with people outside the walls of
the University hitherto has come largely through athletic contests held in
other towns. These are limited in number, and involve also the additional
factor of hostility incidental to rivalry. The enmity which formerly existed between the University and Transylvania and which the Kernel takes
this opportunity to deprecate, owed itself to athletic competition between
the two schools. The same reprehensible spirit crops out sometimes in our
relations with the neighboring college at Danville when these worthy rivals have "rubbed it in" a little after the phenomenal success which they
have enjoyed for several years.
But the relations which the love of music engenders, are essentially
friendly. There is mutual pleasure to both tho performers and the audience. No envy or rivalry comes into the equation at all. The unusual
success which the Glee Club had on the trip speaks for itself. Its emissaries of good will to the "folks back home" and the return to the University, both in these emphasized friendly relations and in actual benefits derived, will amply repay the University for all the money, time, and energy
expended.
But tho work of the Department of Music does not stop with one successful Glee Club trip. Professor Lampert, head of tho Department of
Music, has plans that are too
in their scope for their usefulness to be estimated as yet. To mention only a few, we might name first,
the trip which the University band made this time last week to give a
concert before tho Kentucky Legislature.
The operetta, "The Feast of the Little Lanterns," soon to be given by
the girls' Glee Club, is another outstanding event in tho annual program
of the Music Department.
Sunday orchestra concerts given in the chapel of the
The
University, open to the public, free of admission, have done much to accentuate interest in music. Here the people of Lexington hear the best
of modern music, both popular and classical, rendered worthily by competently trained and directed musicians. This is an opportunity of which all
University students should avail themselves. The purpose of attendance
at a university is not simply to acquire knowledge of certain facts, and
ability to make a living. The student should also learn tho fine art of
human intercourse, tho various refinements of life which make the present day hurly-burllivable and place some of tho keener and finer pleas-ure- s
of living within tho reach of those who seek relief from the customary
exactions of the daily grind.
Tho Kernel hopes to see the day not far removed when the Department
of Music shall bo what its field lends itself so happily to, the loftier refinements that flow from this noble art.
