A Sociological Study Of Part Time Employment In The Senior High Schools Of Louisville, Kentucky., Thomas Hoskins Kettig Aug 1948

A Sociological Study Of Part Time Employment In The Senior High Schools Of Louisville, Kentucky., Thomas Hoskins Kettig

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Today with the advent of an ever increasing industrialization, the importance of developing the skill, strength, and knowledge of the young people to meet the new age is recognized as never before. Not only must the fundamentalism of traditional education be revised in terms of a more progressive education, but also the practical, non-academic courses should be given more consideration. In this thesis I have attempted to analyze one particularly important aspect of the problem of youth and employment. I have presented here a sociological analysis of part-time employment in the Louisville, Kentucky Senior High schools. It was my intention …


A Study Of The Reading Of Fifty Teachers Of Louisville And Jefferson County During The Year Of 1947-1948., Glenn Gray Aug 1948

A Study Of The Reading Of Fifty Teachers Of Louisville And Jefferson County During The Year Of 1947-1948., Glenn Gray

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Teacher Reading is the topic of this professional paper which has been written to fulfill partially the requirements for the Degree of Master in Education for the University of Louisville, Louisville, Kentucky. The purpose of this study is neither to condone nor to condemn teachers in their discrimination or quantity of reading, but is, instead, a rather limited survey to portray the extent and type of reading done by teachers in the schools of Jefferson County and the city of Louisville during the year 1947-1948.


The Poet At War., E. R. Hagemann Aug 1948

The Poet At War., E. R. Hagemann

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The artist, whether he was novelist, poet, painter or essayist, was caught in the maelstrom of violence and destruction that was World War I. Conscription was employed in most nations participating in the War and the artist, with his accurate, discerning eye and his sensitivity, was destined to report the War as he actually saw it unfold before him. A great part of the creative activity these artists engaged in was an analysis and reportage of the years from 1914, to 1918. Before the Armistice had been signed on November 11, 1918, Henri Barbusse had published his indictment of war, …


Milton's Religious Attitude In Samson Agonistes., Milton Gerald Miller Aug 1948

Milton's Religious Attitude In Samson Agonistes., Milton Gerald Miller

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The criticism of Milton's Samson Agonistes has generally centered about interpretation of its autobiographical content and the interpretation of its classical form. The aim of this thesis is to show the relation of the inner, psychological form to the Puritan tradition. The biblical story from which Samson was derived, Judges 13-16, offers little to the scholar in understanding the psychological impetus of Samson. It is mainly a treatment of a pagan narrative demonstrating the snares inherent in trusting a woman with secrets. Samson finally regains his strength and pulls down the temple at Gaza and the narrative ends.

A Study Of Fifty Epileptic Children., Jean M. Dockhorn Jun 1948

A Study Of Fifty Epileptic Children., Jean M. Dockhorn

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This study has been fostered by developments in three fields of endeavor, each of which has contributed directly to the writer's approach to the subject and the conclusions which will be made. First is the trend in medical care toward the recognition'of the fact that particular illnesses imply particular problems and necessitate specific forms of medical and social treatment with these ideas in mind and to provide the recommended treatment specialized programs have been developed and purposive organizations founded. Also, during the past ten years medical research has provided a much better understanding of epilepsy, its implications, and methods of …

The Place Of Rehabilitation In The Home For Incurables : A Study Of One Hundred Patients In The King's Daughters' Home For Incurables, Louisville, Kentucky, December 31, 1947., Gretna Lillian Brown

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Since 1909, the King's Daughters' Home for Incurables in Louisville, Kentucky, has provided institutional care for physically handicapped persons who are residents of Kentucky. A hospital survey done by the Kentucky State Board of Health in 1945-46 classified the Home as a "custodial-type institution", and did not include it in the survey, as it was not considered a hospital. Surveys on phases of the work of the institution were done in 1914 (Haven Emerson Survey) and in 1940 (Health and Welfare Council Survey) for administrative purposes. This year the work of the Home has provided the material for three theses …

Significant Modern Interpretations Of Joan Of Arc., Virginia Quarrier Wynn Jan 1948

Significant Modern Interpretations Of Joan Of Arc., Virginia Quarrier Wynn

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Five hundred years have passed, and Joan remains a living breathing presence, when those others of her day have become little more than names, a museum of labelled shadows. What is the explanation of this continued interest in a young girl who lived for only nineteen short years in the first part of the fifteenth century? Before attempting to answer this question, let us briefly summarize the facts of her life: she was born, it is believed, on January 6, 1412 in Domremy, a small town in north-eastern France. There, at the age of thirteen, she first heard voices and …

The Development Of Professional Education For Social Work At The Raymond A. Kent School Of Social Work Of The University Of Louisville, 1918-1946., Maurice L. Kohnhorst Jan 1948

The Development Of Professional Education For Social Work At The Raymond A. Kent School Of Social Work Of The University Of Louisville, 1918-1946., Maurice L. Kohnhorst

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

It would be impossible to single out any individual or group and give credit tor the development of the Raymond A. Kent School of Social Work. There are names which bring to mind real achievement and tremendous effort in the field which they had chosen and to which they had dedicated their service; names which lived through years of discouragement and disillusionment; names which perhaps have been forgotten with the passage of time but played vital roles in different periods of the development of the school. This, therefore, is not an account of things happening, but in reality, an account …

A Study Of The Academic Success Of Veteran Former Probation Students In The College Of Arts And Sciences Of The University Of Louisville., Rollin E. Godfrey Aug 1947

A Study Of The Academic Success Of Veteran Former Probation Students In The College Of Arts And Sciences Of The University Of Louisville., Rollin E. Godfrey

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The University of Louisville, like most other universities, played an important role in World War II in the training of Service Men for active duty in the Navy, and now in the post-war era, finds herself taxed to the limit to provide educational facilities for her veteran students. To admit large numbers of students, whether veteran or non veteran, without some sort of screening process to identify those who obviously could not do college work would be wasteful of manpower and public moneys. The policy which the University has used for many years is known to be a valid procedure, …

Fellow Americans : Source Material For A Unit On Brazil With Emphasis On The Region Surrounding The Amazon River., Henrietta Frances Alpiger

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Teachers are a busy group. Contrary to the belief of many persons who are not in close contact with a teacher, the school day does not end when the children leave the building. No indeed--there are faculty meetings, committee meetings, P.T.A. meetings, educational association meetings and supervisor meetings to mention but a few of the functions every teacher is expected to attend. In the evening there are papers to grade, lessons to prepare, professional books and articles to read, and numerous records of many varieties to keep. Few teachers enjoy the luxury of an eight hour working day. It is …
