The Plight Of The Biologist: Editorial Sep 1931

The Plight Of The Biologist: Editorial

Science Bulletin

This is indeed an age of science! For the past three hundred years, man has wooed the Goddess of Nature and so ardent has been his wooing, like Sampson of old, she has finally told him her secrets of power.


The State Course Of Study: Chemistry, R. W. Getchell Sep 1931

The State Course Of Study: Chemistry, R. W. Getchell

Science Bulletin

The State Department of Public Instruction has recently completed a far-reaching and valuable contribution to the curriculums of our state system of schools. With the cooperation of many prominent educators of Iowa, courses of study for the grades and departmental courses for the High Schools have been carefully prepared and made available to all teachers. Among these outlines is one for chemistry teachers. According to policy, these course outlines are distributed gratis to the school and become the property of the district.


The Story Of Steve, And Others, Roy L. Abbott Sep 1931

The Story Of Steve, And Others, Roy L. Abbott

Science Bulletin

Steve was a Leopard frog. I say "was" because he long since vanished into the maw of a snapping turtle, and would straightway have been transformed into a part of that twenty-pound bundle of ferocity, had not said turtle been thrown into a furnace by an irate janitor who was fond of Steve but disliked the snapper. Hence, the end of Steve was the occasion for this story of frogs in general and Steve in particular.

The Gifted, Julia Bell Archambault Aug 1931

The Gifted, Julia Bell Archambault

Bachelors’ Theses

The aim of the writer in this thesis is to show how the bright child has been neglected, and the evil that results therefrom; and to show that is is he who is to be our future leader; therefore, it is our duty to plan specially for the gifted, whereby he may make the most of his innate capacities.


The Household Budget, Inez Pepin Jul 1931

The Household Budget, Inez Pepin

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This thesis, submitted to Xavier University in partial fulfillment of requirements for a Bachelor of Arts degree in Home Economics in 1931, examines the household budget as a system for managing family income during a period of national economic crisis. Pepin opens by surveying contemporary economic theories offered to explain the ongoing depression, including overproduction, unequal distribution, and capitalization theories, before turning to the household as a unit affected by broader economic conditions.

The thesis defines the budget as one stage within a larger financial organization process encompassing planning, record-keeping, and periodic review, and argues that no fixed formula for …

The Administration Of Public School Music, Oscar E. Kluck Jul 1931

The Administration Of Public School Music, Oscar E. Kluck

Bachelors’ Theses

Public School Music is a direct descendent of the early American singing school and has only existed in its present form since the world war. It is the latest subject to be included in the school curriculum. Therefore, it needs justification, because it makes demands for time on the school program and creates a need for additional teachers and teaching rooms.


The Teaching Of Geography In The Seventh Grade, Clara Kann Jul 1931

The Teaching Of Geography In The Seventh Grade, Clara Kann

Bachelors’ Theses

Universal public education is the foundation upon which democracy is built. In an autocracy or in a society organized upon the basis of a. ruling class. education may be reserved for the few, but in a democracy the welfare of every member of the group depends upon the intelligence of each. Free schools for the education or all of the members of a democratic society are quite as fundamental to the continuance and development of democracy as is the idea or universal suffrage or of equality before the law.


The Care, Rehabilitation, And Education Of Crippled Children, Florence I. Payne Jul 1931

The Care, Rehabilitation, And Education Of Crippled Children, Florence I. Payne

Bachelors’ Theses

Cripples have always lived among people, but it took the life of Homer Allen with those of several friends to arouse his father, Edgar F. Alien, to the realization of the problem of the cripple. Today "Daddy" Allen is known the world over as the one who influenced others to show more than mere pity for crippled children that they might have facilities for care and education.

The disastrous collision of cars at Elyria, Ohio, May 31, 1907, and the horrible catastrophe of the loss of a beloved son seemed a divine intercession to the wealthy father of the deceased …


The High School Can Guide The Adolescent Girl In Her Choice Of A Vocation, Amanda J. Barsness Jul 1931

The High School Can Guide The Adolescent Girl In Her Choice Of A Vocation, Amanda J. Barsness

Bachelors’ Theses

A half century ago, high school girl graduates were not numerous enough to constitute a major problem to the community. Besides, it was taken for granted that a girl's career was to be that of homemaking. Today the picture is different. There has been an increase of over 500% in the number of girls who graduate from high school and the American girl has developed interests in many fields. Women of to-day are called upon to help solve· political, social, economic and educational problems as never before. The tendency now is for a girl to choose a career outside the …

Torrid, Temperate And Frigid, Misleading Terms In Geography, Alison E. Aitchison May 1931

Torrid, Temperate And Frigid, Misleading Terms In Geography, Alison E. Aitchison

Science Bulletin

In the March, 1930, issue of the Science Bulletin there was published an article under the caption “Misleading Terms in Geography''. After a discussion of certain terms which had found their way into the science before the days of extended and careful exploration the authors presented an investigation which was being carried on and asked the help of Bulletin readers in furthering it. Since many of the readers of the Bulletin are new and many more have probably forgotten the article it might be well to re-state the problem.
