On Events From 1918
. . . States Historian's Aims
"The United States from War
to War" is the title of a 60-page
book published this week by the
University of Nebraska Press as
a supplemental history text for
high school and college courses.
Written by Dr. J. L. Sellers,
professor of history at the Uni
versity of Nebraska, the book
takes up salient events between
the Armistice of 1918 and the
outbreak of war in December,
1941, and carries the United
States' part in the current con
flict up to events of early 1913.
Aim In Writing Book.
Dr. Sellers' aim In writing the
book is summed up in his intro
duction: "The full truth in the
presentation of history is the ideal
goal of the historian's craft. Yet,
publications must reflect the
trends of the thinking of the peo
ple who are the prospective pur
chasers, and writers of textbooks
therefore easily tend to reflect
the wishful thinking of the times.
"Just as a deflected compass
may lead a ship far from its
course, uncritical or fallacious
material may misdirect the think
ing of a whole nation. Textbook
treatments of events since 1914
and prepared before Pearl Harbor
have been thrown out of focus by
that startling event, and history

rious aim, for these students, we

ulty in whatever regulations they
may deem feasible."
Rule Repealed
The regulation about attendance
which aroused the most question
in the minds of the students was
struck off the home ec records,
with the understanding that home
ec coeds and faculty would abide
by the university ruling on that
subject. The necessity of written
excuses for absence or tardiness
was left to the discretion of the
student.
It was also decided at the meet
ing that girls who hand papers in
late should be penalized from two
to five percent per week. This
ruling makes an exception of un
avoidable sickness, of course.

"A history supplement on the
United State3 in these world
events since 1914 is offered, not
as a full picture, but as a beam
of light striking on the higher
peaks. It is chiefly a brief inter
relation of world events to our own
situation and should be helpful
for students in secondary schools."
