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. Ross Baumann,
Tom Snipes, . and Bill Allington,
who obtained master's degrees last
year, have asslstantshlps in Harv
ard, Iowa State, and Wisconsin,
respectively. Their respective sub
jects are economics, entomology,
and plant pathology. Among those
who obtained bachelor's degrees
last year, Philip Henderson is
working in economics at Cornell,
Boyd Shank in plant genetics at
Iowa State, Paul Swanson in dairy
science in Tennessee, Lyle Seiko in
entomology here at Nebraska, and
others continuing at the Nebraska
college of agriculture are J. V.
Srb, Raymond Kinch, Lewis Bot-
Ruth Fulton, Mary Stewart
Assume Positions
Thursday.
Two new members will assume
their duties at the next meeting of
the W. A. A. Council Thursday at
5 o'clock in the Armory. Ruth
Fulton was elected to the position
of expansion chairman following
the resignation of Gayle Caley, and
Mary Priscilla Stewart will take
the place of Beth Taylor as cabin
chairman.
The two girls were invited to
membership on the council after
the election at the meeting last
week when the two resignations
were accepted and the vacant posi
tions filled. Both Miss Caley and
Miss Taylor were forced to resign
because they were over-pointed ac
cording to the women's activity
chart, Elizabeth Bushee, president,
stated.

year there is no evidence of un
employment among last years
graduates.
"While there is a certain ro
mance in digging for these remains
far away from civilization, I'd
rather find out what lies beneath
the soil in this state," declared Dr.
Bell. "There may be, there prob
ably are .thousands of deposits
still untouched containing countless
fragments and vestiges of man and
his progenitors."

national recognition for her apti

Gregg McBrlde, sportswriter of

lighter entertainment to the maga

The nationally recognized sports
editor is in charge of the university
publicity and through his affilia

has an unlimited resource for sucn
an article.
In addition to these remarkable
compositions the pending edition
contains several other equally de

students, faculty members, and
alumni. In view of this extra
ordinarily strong group of con

subjects, the pending publication
