STUDENTS TO COLLECT
CLOTHING FOR NEEDY
W. C. A. Committee to Help
Suffering Poor of Foreign
Countries.
Clothing for the destitute students
of Europe will be collected by the
social service committee of the Uni
versity Y. W. C. A. There is a dread
ful need among students in Europe
for clothing of every sort and it is
hoped that with the closing of the
college year there wilj be a number
of University of Nebraska students
who would like to contribute garments
which they are not going to use next
year, but which are still serviceable.
Students in all of the colleges of the
United States are being asked to give.
Every sorority and rooming house
will be visited by representatives who
will explain the situation. The social
service committee will provide auto
mobiles to collect the clothing. Any
one who is not reached and who has
clothing which she will give is asked
to call the Y. W. C. A. office or leave
a bundle at the office.
Women in Europe are suffering
worse than men, as the majority of
men are still wearing uniforms. Many
women students are still wearing the
clothes they had in 1914, and have
bought nothing since because of the
high prices. The earning power of
students is pitiably small. They can
not possibly earn, save in exceptional
cases, more than $1 in American
money.
BOOK BY MISS POUND
COMMENDED BY CRITICS
Miss Louise Pound's latest book,
"Poetic Origins and the Ballad," the
second book she has published this
year, is paid the honor of a page re
view in a recent issue of the literary
supplement of the London Times.
According to the writer of the re
view, "Miss Pound is a professor, but
one trained in the modem inductive
school. Her critical exposition of the
subject makes many of the deductive
speculations of her predecessors who
disregarded not only textual evidence
but the laws of nature and human
experience look remarkably foolish.
,. . Miss Pound in this admirable book
has collected all the evidence neces
sary to support hte denial of the
communal theory already denounced
by common sense She has sepa
rated the authentic ballad from that
vague nebula of primitive song in
which abstract theories can float un
troubled by the necessity of definition.
To this she has added a knowledge of
human psychology and (which is im
portant she has investigated parallel
contemporary material among unde
veloped peoples, and has kept the re
sults of such research in' mind, when
examining the older material."
Another recent review of the Ne
braska professor's book is by 11. L.
Mencken, called by the Mercure de
Fiance America's foremost critic, in
"Books about Books" in the June num
ber of the Smart Set. He writes:
"Her work is extraordinarily learned,
and yet the writing is clear and enter
taining. It is a capital example of
what scholarship might be in America
if there were more of her acute intel
ligence among our scholars and less
of the ponderous mummery of sorcer
ers and corn-doctors."
So far Miss round's book has re
ceived some dozens of favorable no
tices and one violent attack the lat
ter from a Prniceton professor who
was shocked at her divergence from
traditional views and attacked her
positions, apparently without first get
ting an accurate idea of what they
are.
