D I S P L AY ILLUSTRATING BOOK HISTORY FROM 2000 B. C. TO PRESENT SHOWN ON THIRD FLOOR OF LIBRARY BUILDING. (Continued from Page 1.) andrian library, to come to his court at Pergamum. Ptolemy put the librarian in prison and placed an embargo on the export of papy rus. This led Eumenes to develop the manufacture of vellum or parchment. Vellum was produced from the skins of animals as cattle, sheep, goats and even ante lope. Vellum did not at once rival papyrus but it was well known by the end of the Christian era. The decline of papyrus dates from the fourth century. Prayer Book Ornamented. The layman's prayer book is a manuscript transcribed on vellum which was done in the norm oi France at the beginning of the fifteenth century. It has orna mental initials and borders which show the ivy leaf design so char acteristic of the French illumina tion in the fourteenth century. When the Roman empire broke up, the work of preserving literary activity was left almost entirely to the churches. Cassiodories, abbot of the monastery at Vivoria, was the first to introduce the tran scribing of manuscripts as a part of the prescribed daily routine of monastic life. The material of these hand written books was vel lum until the latter part of the fourteenth century or the begin ning of the fifteenth when paper displaced this material. Government Buys Copies. It has been very definitely de termined that the Bible, the first printed book, was printed by John Gutemberg, the inventor or the process of printing by mov able type. In 1930 the U. S. gov ernment purchased in the Vallbehr collection of incunabula one of the three known perfect copies of the Gutenberg Bible on vellum, and the only one of the three in three volumes. It has ben valued at $1,000,000. The University of Ne braska has one leaf from an im perfect copy. No doubt inspired by the work of the great French binder, Le Gascon, Samuel Mearne, binder to Charles n and James from 1660 to 1693, produced the finest gold tooled work ever done In England.

Placement Aa Degree Holders Due to Demand for Trained Agriculturalists Dean Burr Reports Lack of Unemployment Among 1935 Graduates. (By News and Featuro Service.) An increasing demand for men trained in the technological and ed ucational phases of agriculture is probably the reason, according to Dean W. W. Burr, of the university college of agriculture, for the ex cellent record of placements of men who obtained degrees here in agricultural science last year. One-third Placed. Of the thirty-eight who obtained degrees, more than a third are do-, ing graduate work In other in stitutions or in this university. Most of these have obtained grad uate asslstantshlps.
