John Donne The Preacher., Dick Houston Hall
John Donne The Preacher., Dick Houston Hall
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
In the year 1573 when Shakespeare and Marlowe were already boys of nine, Chapman in adolescence, Spenser, Lyly and Richard Hooker men of twenty, John Donne, then important to only a few but destined to the company of royalty, was born. Walton says, in his very excellent but inadequate and often inaccurate “Lives of Dr. John Donne, etc.,” that his father as descended “from an ancient and worth family in Wales.” Gosse, however, calls this simply “a pious wish” because nothing is known of his father’s parentage. He was prosperous iron merchant of London, who died in 1576 leaving his …

The Effect Of Endocrines Upon Animal Behavior., J. Hubert Geyer
The Effect Of Endocrines Upon Animal Behavior., J. Hubert Geyer
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
It is not the primary purpose of this present work to treat the problem of the evolution of behavior, but rather to give an analysis of animal behavior as observed. These observations may appear as simple tests, but they make possible a new way to measure the capacity and determine the rate of learning by the animal mind. Progress in learning takes place through increased variety and precision of the movements brought about by stimulation and is very clearly observed in Amoeba, where we find the production of varied movements and the resolution of one physiological state into another. Thus …
The Influence Of The Diet Of The Cow And The Effect Of Heat Upon The Antiscorbutic Potency Of Milk, Lynn Copeland
The Influence Of The Diet Of The Cow And The Effect Of Heat Upon The Antiscorbutic Potency Of Milk, Lynn Copeland
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Inroduction: For a long time there has been a belief among scientific investigators and medical men that certain diseases, both of man and animal were the direct result of a faulty diet. In other words, something which was needed by the body for maintenance of growth and health was thought to be frequently lacking in the diet of man and animal. Attention was first called to these accessory substances thru investigations into the cause of the disease beri-beri. In 1884, the Japanese Navy, under the direction of Admiral Takaki, positively demonstrated that beri-beri was the result of a faulty diet, …
A Comparative Study Of Methods Of Proportioning Concrete, Lawrence C. Maugh
A Comparative Study Of Methods Of Proportioning Concrete, Lawrence C. Maugh
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
A continual increase in the use of concrete as a building material has greatly increased the demand for more definite knowledge of the factors that are conductive to strength and economy of construction. It has been found necessary to acquire this knowledge largely through definite and extensive experimental work under conditions that can be carefully controlled and regulated. Although a considerable amount of experimental work upon the properties and proportioning of concrete has been performed in the last decade, the conflicting statements that have been made clearly indicate that this field of research and investigation is by no means complete. …

The Regular Army As A Factor In Maintaining Peace In The United States., A. Robert Ginsburgh (Abraham Robert) 1895-1958
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The function of the army of the United States is to protect the country against all enemies foreign and domestic. Everyone is cognizant of the accomplishments of the American forces against its foreign enemies; but there is another work, of equal importance, fraught with as great a danger, which is too often overlooked that is, the use of the army as an auxiliary force to strengthen the arm of municipal authority, in the suppression of riots and disturbances; and to maintain order, where for some reason or other, the municipal authority has been unable to cope with the situation. Wars …
Concerning The Degree Of Self Fertilization In Corn (Zea Mays Indentata) That Is Obtained Under Normal Field Conditions, George Janssen
Concerning The Degree Of Self Fertilization In Corn (Zea Mays Indentata) That Is Obtained Under Normal Field Conditions, George Janssen
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
"Like begets like”. This well-known phrase which aroused so much comment among students in genetics and animal breeding has almost unconsciously become an adage to a part of their philosophy. Whatever truth or lack of it is associated with these words we admire the keenness of observation of him who wrote them. However significant the words "like begets like" could it be strictly adhered to our problem in breeding a cross-fertilized population would be greatly lessened. Much has been done in plant and animal breeding and the methods employed in accomplishing the greater part is without written history. Here and …

George Meredith's Ideas Of Religion., Mary Ellis Duncan
George Meredith's Ideas Of Religion., Mary Ellis Duncan
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Every man is to a greater or less degree a product of the influences surrounding his life. The more commonplace minds of the race, no doubt, are chiefly affected; and occasionally we find a man or woman of so keen an intellect, so striking an individuality, that it is difficult to trace the influence of his age upon him. Rather he becomes a power in forming the opinions of the next generation, stands in advance of his own period. Of this individualistic type if George Meredith, one of the greatest of the nineteenth century writers, if not foremost among them.

Cooperative Marketing Of Farm Products In South Dakota, Wendell Frichiof Kumlien
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Introduction: General Facts Underlying the Whole Problem of Distribution and Marketing of Farm Products Before entering into a detailed discussion of cooperative marketing of farm products as applied to South Dakota, I wish to briefly mention a few general historical facts which in a large part go to make up the background for the whole present day problem of distribution and marketing. 1. Pioneer America’s Agricultural Problems Mainly Those of Production During the period when our country was predominately agricultural, each farm produced practically everything it needed and was in the main self-sufficing. Each farmer produced his own wheat and …
Analysis Of A Chylous Fluid., Elizabeth C. Franke
Analysis Of A Chylous Fluid., Elizabeth C. Franke
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Not many analyses of chylous fluids have been published. The analyses reported here were accordingly undertaken when a somewhat unusual opportunity for obtaining chylous fluid presented itself, with the object of adding to the data already published, confirmation or correction of the usually accepted ideas regarding the composition of chyle. The samples of the fluid analysed were drawn from the thorax of a woman fifty-eight years old and were collected over a period of about three months. From the second of November until the eight of April (date of patient's death) fifteen extractions, with a total volume of forty-eight and …
The Potato, I. S. Oakland
The Potato, I. S. Oakland
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
I respectfully submit this investigation and thesis to the committee of Master of Science, realizing that a long time is needed for proving any scientific principle no matter how large or small that truth may be. I have labored patiently for the last two years trying to find what part inheritance takes in lowering the yield of tubers in this state. I found that inheritance plays an important part in lowering the yield. I also found that there was a direct relationship of size of seed piece to yield, and that possibly the low yield of today is due to …
Le Misanthrope., Henry William Lenz
Le Misanthrope., Henry William Lenz
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The aim of this thesis is to show that there is found in this "noblest of comic masterpieces" an absorbing study of mankind and a profound knowledge of the human heart. It is In his work that man gives himself to the world; in his literary efforts he gives a vivid portrayal of himself, his real and inner self is splendidly revealed, though the merely material man is kept in the background. Bearing this in mind the writer has endeavored not so much to depict the character of Moliere, but, rather by an analytical process, to designate the elements which …
Analysis Of Water-Insoluble Proteins Of Flesh : An Application Of Van Slyke's Method Of Analysis Of Pure Proteins., H. H. Mcgregor
Analysis Of Water-Insoluble Proteins Of Flesh : An Application Of Van Slyke's Method Of Analysis Of Pure Proteins., H. H. Mcgregor
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The fundamental importance of a definite knowledge of the quantity of each amino acid yielded by the several food proteins justifies the expenditure of much effort in studying the analytical methods in order that these may be improved or their limitations definitely ascertained." "From the standpoint of physiological chemistry it is highly desirable that the present very limited knowledge of the protein substances of flesh be increased." The desirability of a knowledge of the amino acid content of food proteins has led to much experimentation looking towards a method that will yield quantitative results without involving excessive time or manipulation …

A Comparative Study Of Degenerative Tissue, Homer Davis
A Comparative Study Of Degenerative Tissue, Homer Davis
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Nutrition is the earliest and most constant of vital operations. So prominent is the nutritive apparatus of an animal that the animal has been likened to a moving sac, organized to convert foreign matter into its own likeness, to which the complex organs of animal life are but auxiliaries. In growth more material is used by the body-protoplasm that is expelled. Nutrition includes excretion i.e. the removal of spent material which is usually poisonous and which if allowed to remain in the body organism would impair nutrition in its fullest sense. The objects of nutrition are growth, repair, and propogation. …
The Trend Towards Socialism In Recent Law-Making, James Arthur Brown
The Trend Towards Socialism In Recent Law-Making, James Arthur Brown
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Introduction: It is an undeniable fact that civilized nations are drifting towards socialism. Whether we reach the goal of ideal and theoretic socialists at last, or stop short of socialism in its modern accepted meaning it is not the purpose of this work to investigate. Socialism is of recent origin. It was started less than seventy years ago in France. The progress that it has made is worthy of some attention. It has spread to all civilized nations and has won many earnest supporters in England, France Germany and the United States. A great deal of confusion results from the …
