CLEAN OUT ATTIC
OF CITY BUILDING

Members of the city fire depart
ment were busy cleaning out the attic
of the city building, over their sleep
ing quarters Wednesday. Several
years ago the space was used as Il

ON EGYPTIAN C0FFINS
fBy Associated Pressl

CHICAGO, Jan. 11-Announcement
is just made by the director of the
oriental institute of the University of
Chicago, Dr. James Henry Breasted,
that funds have been secured for the
organization of an international group
OF editors for the collection, editing
and publication of the archaic mortu-
ary documents which preceded the
famous Book of the Dead and out of
which the Book of the Dead was later
put together.
These mortuary texts were written
in ink on the insides of the massive
cedar coffins in which the Egyptian
mobiles were buried four thousand
years ago.
The coffins containing this litera.
ture are scattered throughout the
great museums of the world where
they have never been completely cop.
led and studied.
These strange inscriptions will be
called "The Coffin Texts and the
work of producing the great publica
ton will be in the hands of three
editors-Monsieur Pierre Lacau, the
leading French Psychologist and di
rector of the Egyptian government
department of antiquities, DR.. Alan H
Gardiner, the eminent British Egypt
ologist, and Director James H. Breas
ted, of the Oriental Institute of the
University of Chicago.
The Coffin Texts are important moi
only as raw materials for the Bool
of the Dead, but as showing the
earliest belief in a judgment in the
hereafter.

the zero line in order to constitute a
cold wave, states Weatherman Moore,

If the temperature at Z a. m. was 81
degrees above and it fell to II aboy z
or lower, that would mean a cold
