REINMUTH WRITES ARTICLE Recent Literary Achievement Is Published in Journal of Philology. One of the leading articles in The American Journal of Philology f0r the last quarter ui nag jut appeared, was written by prof O. W. Reinmuth of the nmirlmpnt. It is a study of the literary treatment of con temporaneous events in Roman epic with particular emphasis upon the Aeneid of Vergil. "In obtaining international mind ness, the first requisite is to be come readers of documents. In in terpreting the voluminous news for the day, it must be remembered that no document is valid today ex cept for the document of human relations. Opinions must be formed not by facing the people alone but by appreciating their background of tradition and prejudice. And as you re-sd the documents, learn as you read to realize what doesn t work and what might, if tried." As a way of illustrating his ideal of learning to read docu ments, and as a means of describ ing "Europe Unvisited," Mr. Har ris introduced with expressive characterizations many of the noted thinkers and political lead ers of Europe. Dr. Maude Royden, leader of a strong pacifist group la England, is known for her ardent aggres siveness, for the cause of peace.

FUEL COST INCREASED University Asks Cooperation Of Faculty to Reduce Utilities Cost. Orders for economy in the use of heat, water, and electri city on the eniii pi of the University of Nebraska, were issued Tuesday by L. F. Seaton, operating superintendent. Because of the severe budget cuts, and the increased price of steam coal, Mr. Seaton appealed to all departments of the school to help in the crisis. "Unless a proportionate reduc tion in the quantity of steam used can be made, the fund for heating will have to be increased at the expense of other maintenance and salary items," said Mr. Seaton Tuesday. "We are now facing the prospect of having to pay about 50 percent more at the mines for steam coal than last year. It will require the utmost co-operation from every member of the faculty to effect the necessary saving in the amount of steam consumed during the coming heating season, which will enable us to balance the increased coal costs with our re duced budget.

A committee was appointed to work during the summer and present suggestions at the first meeting this fall. The committee reported this fall with two recommendations for re organization of the council. One of these plans provided for the crea tion of an alumni council composed of an alumnus of each fraternity represented on the campus.
