Wind And Earthquake Stresses In Tall Buildings, Henry A. Reynolds Jan 1931

Wind And Earthquake Stresses In Tall Buildings, Henry A. Reynolds

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

With the increasing cost of land in the modern city it has been necessary to expand upward rather than on the surface. The result has been to concentrate commercial and industrial enterprises in small areas whose influence is felt over the entire world. Notable examples are New York and Chicago. In these developments the engineer has played no small part. It is claimed by some that the maximum economic height has been reached at a thousand feet. However, both the Chrysler and Empire State Buildings have slightly passed this mark. It is not improbable that even taller buildings then these …


The Culture Of The Mayas As Shown By Their Ruins, Daniel James Stone Jan 1931

The Culture Of The Mayas As Shown By Their Ruins, Daniel James Stone

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

It is the purpose of this paper to deal with the high state of culture attained by the mysterious Mayas of Central America and Yucatan.

How old is their civilization? No one knows.

Where did they come from? Who can say?

What did they wish to tell us in their writings that have come down through those past thousands of years? No one can decipher them.

The controversy over these points, and many others, has caused unlimited debate among scientists, and as yet, the questions remain unanswered.

What, then, is there to write about?

These people have left us beautifully …

The Christology Of The Apocalypse, W H. Ellwanger Jul 1930

The Christology Of The Apocalypse, W H. Ellwanger

Concordia Theological Monthly

More curious notions arise in the minds of many Bible students regarding St. John's Apocalypse than regarding any other book of the Bible. Usually Bible classes are found to be more eager to study this book than any other portion of the Holy Scriptures, and pastors are often asked bewildering and perplexing questions concerning it. Shall we hold ourselves aloof from this writing with an air of "touch not, taste not, handle not," or shall we diligently apply ourselves to laying hold of the divine truths here recorded in their richness and fulness?

The Development Of Colloid Chemistry, Oscar A. Bouise Jun 1930

The Development Of Colloid Chemistry, Oscar A. Bouise

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

At first, it was a blur, that had shrouded a great mystery for ages and ages, until some seventy odd years ago. Then came Thomas Graham, who could not satisfy himself with merely viewing a blur as a blur. Being a scientist, he applied his mind experimentally, with the keen precision of any of the eminent astronomers using a telescope, and viewed more clearly this mist which hovered above the horizon . But maybe it was not due time fir the unfolding of the great secret, for Graham's focus only revealed a more complicated mist that had been seen before. …

Evolution And Ethics: A Discussion Of The Ethical Theories Of The Evolution Philosophers, Wilbur E. Kearney May 1930

Evolution And Ethics: A Discussion Of The Ethical Theories Of The Evolution Philosophers, Wilbur E. Kearney

Bachelors’ Theses

It is indeed unfortunate that our mental make-up is so prone to accept as fact whatever appeals to it as novel and plausible. We are, it is true, rational beings but it is just as true that we accept without due consideration and study, any theory which has but a scintilla of truth and a majority of appeal, if that theory is new to us and has embodied in it, something interesting and fanciful. In our quest for modernity, we often overlook or fail to appreciate the fundamental truths of antiquity. And very often, what we think is new, is …

This thesis is a study of Jean Racine's drama Berenice. It analyzes the play act by act and attempts to show the ability of Racine as a poet-dramatist as exemplified in Berenice.
