Theses and Dissertations
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has been organized for over one hundred and thirty-six years.

S. seminary text. The objective of this field project was to produce textual materials covering a fifty-three year portion of this period--the portion 1898-1951.

Meadow, Millard County, Utah: The Geography Of A Small Mormon Agricultural Community, Richard H. Jackson
Meadow, Millard County, Utah: The Geography Of A Small Mormon Agricultural Community, Richard H. Jackson
Theses and Dissertations
The agricultural village was the basis of the original economy of Utah established by the Mormon settlers, but it has since been supplanted in importance by the industrial and commercial activities of the large centers of the Wasatch Front counties of Salt Lake, Weber, and Utah. This study was conducted in an attempt to determine the future of those communities removed from industrialized northern Utah. The village of Meadow, Millard County, was chosen as an example and it was subjected to a detailed geographic analysis. From this analysis conclusions have been drawn regarding its future.
The Nature Of The Spirit World, As Taught In The Holy Scriptures And By The Prophets, Seers, And Revelators Of The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter-Day Saints, Roger T. Ralphs
Theses and Dissertations
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints teaches that there are several estates through which man must pass on his way to exaltation in the celestial kingdom. These estates consist of man as: (1) a pre-mortal spirit being, a literal offspring of God; (2) a mortal being having physical as well as spiritual parents; (3) a post-mortal spirit being, his spirit having withdrawn from his physical body at death; and (4) an immortal resurected personage over which physical death has no more power. The teachings concerning these estates form a goodly portion of the gospel plan as taught by …

This study includes an examination of the Scandinavian and Danish Mission records, several missionary journals and all known printed material related to the Mormon Church …
Hermann Hesse And The Notion Of The Ful Entity Of Man In The Literature Of Our Century, Albert Bettex
Hermann Hesse And The Notion Of The Ful Entity Of Man In The Literature Of Our Century, Albert Bettex
Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter

He discovers tendencies in the minds of many of his contemporaries . First "a growing disgust at one sided attitudes which do not make sense" . He was thinking, among other things, of the increclible chaos of doubtful, dogmatic philosophies of the late 1920's, many of which were offered as promises of salvation to …

The purpose was to begin to build knowledge about postdivorce adjustment, and it is hoped that future students of the family will be inspired to further investigate postdivorce problems.

Uses Of The Five Elements In East Asia, Spencer J. Palmer
Uses Of The Five Elements In East Asia, Spencer J. Palmer
BYU Studies
The author suggests that the Chinese theory of Wu-hsing, or The Five Elements, combined with the Yin-Yang theory, has had as great an influence on Eastern cultures as Greco-Roman culture has had upon the West. The theory of the Five Elements-fire, earth, metal, water, and wood-has impacted everything from children's games to the days of the week to the naming of babies throughout Asia. Perhaps the greatest influence has been on politics and theories of history.

Summer Soil And Air Temperatures In Four Plant Communities, Paul W. Conrad
Summer Soil And Air Temperatures In Four Plant Communities, Paul W. Conrad
Theses and Dissertations
Temperature, one of the most influential factors controlling the growth and distribution of plants, was measured during a three month summer period within several stands of vegetation. The stands represented four distinct plant communities: sagebrush-grass, mountain brush, aspen, and conifer. Measurements were obtained by a sucrose inversion method which gave exponential average or effective mean temperature (eT) values. Registerants, small glass vials filled with a sucrose-buffer solution, were placed in the air 10 decimeters above the ground level and in the soil 1, 5, and 10 decimeters below the ground level. The sites were carefully described with respect to plant …
Drag Forces On Magnetically Accelerated Particles, Darrell Winterton Walker
Drag Forces On Magnetically Accelerated Particles, Darrell Winterton Walker
Theses and Dissertations
The object of this investigation was to determine the effect of acceleration on the drag of spheres as it differs from the steady state case. Steady state drag applies to the force acting on a single sphere moving at constant velocity through an infinite, continuous, incompressible, turbulence free fluid. Extensive experimentation has quite thoroughly documented the steady state drag characteristics of spheres. A dimensionless parameter associated with the drag force is sometimes used to correlate drag characteristics.

A Phytosociological Study Of Coprophilous Ascomycete And Basidiomycete Communities From Santaquin Canyon, Utah, A. Clyde Blauer
Theses and Dissertations
Numerous reports have been published on the taxonomy and distribution of the coprophilous Ascomycetes and Basidiomycetes. No known quantitative work has been done, however, on the succession and structure of the communities formed by these higher fungi. This research was undertaken to study those two phases of the ascomycete and basidiomycete communities which grow and fruit on cow dung collected from Santaquin Canyon, Utah.
