Pagan Ritas Practiced. “Tradition has It that King Domald was slain at Upsala as a aacrlflce to the pagan gods to end a famine, after the people had offered other human beings and an ox without success,’* continues the bulletin. “King Ann, another early Swedish king, was proriiised additional years of life by the gods If he would offer up bis sons. He lived to sacrifice nine, but waa stopped by his subjects before he attempted to slay the tenth and last. The old king Is said to have died shortly after he failed to comply with the gods’ commands. “Visitors to Old Upsala today who are not familiar with Its history, would not be apprised of ita ancient glory. Except for three huge mounds, the traditional tombs of the three gods, and a natural amphitheater where the ancient assemblies of Sweden were held, few suggestions of the old capital remain. “Ostra Aros, two miles sooth of the capital on the Fyrisa river, was the royal landing place. Otherwise it was Insignificant compared with the royal town. But when the first Christian cathedral waa destroyed by fire In the .Thirteenth century, the archbishopric was moved to the port city, and short ly afterward the royal household mi grated to Stockholm. Old Upsala was sooo deserted when stripped of its royal and religious leadership and Ostra Aros even usurped its name. The old capital later became known aa Gamla Upsala. “Modern Upsala, now a cltv of near ly 80,000 Inhabitants, 'is abbot forty miles north of Stockholm with which It la connected by both water and rail transportation. Its principal Industry Is education, for Upaala university la the largest state educational insti tution In Sweden. The university waa founded in 1477. “Crowning the highest point In the city is the Upsala castle, founded by King Gustavos Vasa 400 years ago. It was the scene of Queen Christina’s abdication. “The castle windows afford a splen did view of the ‘college town.’ The Fyrisa, crossed by eight bridges, quietly flows southward toward Lake Mslaren. The city Is spread out on both banks. The east bank, save for a few bouses, and streets that are laid out In checkerboard fashion. Is the site of numerous university build ings, campuses and gardens. One of the gardens was laid out by Lin naeus, the founder of modern botany, who became a professor at Upsala In 1741. Emauuel Swedenborg, mystic philosopher and founder af the re ligious sect called the ‘Swedenbor- gians,’ was graduated from the uni versity In 1710. “Fraternities’’ Called “Nations.** “Wherever seen, Upsala students are distinguished by their white vel vet caps. Each of the soifie 2.000 4 sto- dents are obliged to become members of the student unions known ns ‘na tions.’ There are no Gte JOHNSON BUILDING Extend a cordial invitation to the ladies of Barnwell to visit - f emltfSr" ^isibers nfe chosen by ae- cldent of birth, for each nation repre- •sents one or more Swedish ’Ians,* or provinces. - The 'nations’ have their own houses and conduct their own af : falrsX • * “The university library Is, perhaps, the most Important In the country, containing more than 350,000 printed volumes, and 14,000 valuable manu scripts. Tbs chief treasure is the fa mous Codex Argenteus, a Fourth cen tury translation of the four gospels into Moeso-Gdfhic. The work Includes 187 leaves of parchment in gold and silver letters on a red ground. There Is also a collection of letters of Lu- tber, Linnaeus, Mozart and Goethe. “Upsala cathedral might be prop erly called ‘Little Notre Dame/ al though It is the largest in Sweden. The cathedral Is situated in the cen ter of Die city, itsl close adjoining the university campus. Here the gradua tion exerciises of the university are held. In Its burial vaults lie the re mains of some of Sweden's foremost educators, among whom 9 are King Gustavus Vasa, Linnaeus and Swe denborg. One of Notre Dame’s arch!- tects, Etienne de Bonneuil, drew the plans of the cathedral, which accouhts for Its resemblance to the Paris church. Construction began In 1287 and It was 150 years before the build ing was completed."
