Presettlement Vegetation And Vegetational Change In Three Valleys In Central Utah, Earl M. Christensen, Hyrum B. Johnson
Presettlement Vegetation And Vegetational Change In Three Valleys In Central Utah, Earl M. Christensen, Hyrum B. Johnson
Brigham Young University Science Bulletin, Biological Series
Historical information, survey records, and relict vegetation were used as sources of data for determining the nature of the presettlement vegetation of Pavant, Round, and Juab Valleys in central Utah. The foothills were covered with bunch grasses (principally Agropyron spicatum and Poa secunda), scattered junipers (Juniperus utahensis), and sagebrush (Artemisia tridentate). Western wheatgrass (Agropyron smithii) was common on level areas within the foothills. Below the foothill region on the more gentle slopes and benchlands there was a broad belt dominated by bunch grasses. The grassy area intergraded into a zone dominated by northern …
Metabolism Of Thiamine And The Effect Of Some Antagonists, Russel M. Bender
Metabolism Of Thiamine And The Effect Of Some Antagonists, Russel M. Bender
Theses and Dissertations
To investigate the possibility that thiamine has more than one vital role in the mammalian system, it was decided to use the antagonists pyrithiamine and oxythiamine, and to utilize carbon-14 labeled compounds to more effectively study the vitamin and the above-named antagonists. To make it more effective, we felt that perhaps differences between the localization of oxythiamine and pyrithiamine could be detected in the brain. We also considered and tested the possibility that either or both of the antagonists would alter the localization of thiamine. Essentially, two procedures were used in this study. One was a counting method and the …

Origin Of The Welfare Plan Of The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter-Day Saints, Leonard J. Arrington, Wayne K. Hinton
Origin Of The Welfare Plan Of The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter-Day Saints, Leonard J. Arrington, Wayne K. Hinton
BYU Studies
The welfare plan of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, initiated during the Great Depression, was praised by conservatives as an effective New Deal protest and criticized by liberals as a step backward. The Church's philosophy of providing work relief as opposed to a dole is based in its doctrines and statements from early leaders. Early work relief programs were adopted in local congregations starting in 1931, but when the federal government began to decrease its direct relief programs, church leaders increased church-wide work relief programs. The Church welfare system was not a political move but simply an …
Curse Upon A God, Charlotte Winzeler
Curse Upon A God, Charlotte Winzeler
BYU Studies
Ben Jonson's "An Execration upon Vulcan" is an excellent example of how the poet blended classical styles with those of seventeenth-century England. Written after Jonson's library burned, the poem cursing the Vulcan God is a subtle satire of classical and Elizabethan forms as well as the popular literature of Jonson's day.

A Study Of Boy Scout And Aaronic Priesthood Activity (Boys Age Twelve To Fourteen) In Selected Lds Wards, Orval Leonard Nelson
Theses and Dissertations
This study had two main purposes. Its first is to test the theoretical proposition that there is a carry-over into other systems of behavior as a result of group cohesion. For example, as scouting activities increased, Aaronic Priesthood activities increased. And according to the reference group theory, individuals join reference groups to fulfill certain needs, wants, goals, etc. In an active Boy Scout program many of these needs, wants, and goals are satisfied as the boys participate in the activities outlined by the Boy Scouts of America. Furthermore, once these needs are satisfied, change toward conformity tends to carry over …

George Romney And The Michigan Gubernatorial Compaign - 1962, Richard C. Fuller
Theses and Dissertations
Politics in Michigan had been on a low plane for a number of years. The troubles were many and their roots could be found deep in the structure of the state's government.
In April of 1959, the sagging governmental structure gave way to the extent that the state was unable to meet its payroll. The result was the much publicized "Payless Pay Day" which attracted national and international interest.
Seeing that their elected officials were seemingly powerless to correct even the basic flaws in Michigan's government, many of the state's leading business and industrial leaders decided to apply their considerable …

The Origin And Original Meaning Of Sacrificial Blood Offerings As Revealed In The Bible And Modern Scriptures, Theo Emory Mckean
The Origin And Original Meaning Of Sacrificial Blood Offerings As Revealed In The Bible And Modern Scriptures, Theo Emory Mckean
Theses and Dissertations
This study is concerned with the origin and original meaning of sacrificial blood offerings as practiced by the ancient Israelite people and their progenitors. "Modern" scriptural sources including the Pearl of Great Price, the Book of Mormon, and the Doctrine and Covenants are used along with the Bible as the basic reference material.
The lack of explicit information in the Bible as to the inception and meaning of sacrifice has resulted in the development of many theories which suggest that this rite had a human beginning. These theories imply that by natural expression man began to seek favor from his …
