Antiochus Epiphanes., Brougher Petty Maddox
Antiochus Epiphanes., Brougher Petty Maddox
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
While the writer was an undergraduate he spent two Summers in the Panamint mountains above Death Valley, California. Hiking with one of the few old-timers remaining in that region he noticed that "the old desert rat" would stoop occasionally to pick up certain rocks which he would examine closely. Some went into a pouch he carried. They were later crushed and "panned." If they made a "showing" in the gold-pan, the prospector would retrace his steps and arduously search for the parent vein. In similar fashion the writer has ventured upon interesting features in the life and character of the …
The Development Of Ethyl Cellulose Lacquers For Automotive Use : An Ethyl Cellulose Lacquer For Coating Plastics., Robert Carlton Krueger
The Development Of Ethyl Cellulose Lacquers For Automotive Use : An Ethyl Cellulose Lacquer For Coating Plastics., Robert Carlton Krueger
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
There have been developed various colored ethyl cellulose lacquers that compare favorably with standard nitrocellulose lacquers in physical tests. Ultra violet light caused rather pronounced darkening of the lighter colors such as white and light yellow, probably because of the use of high amounts of phenolic resin. Also because of the presence of relatively large amounts of phenolic resin, the cost was somewhat higher than a comparable nitrocellulose lacquer. Suggestions for further work and improvement are included. An ethyl cellulose lacquer has also been developed to be applied by spray or brush to ethyl cellulose plastics with a minimum amount …
History And Development Of The Mental Hygiene Clinic Of Louisville, Kentucky., Mary-Elizabeth O'Brien
History And Development Of The Mental Hygiene Clinic Of Louisville, Kentucky., Mary-Elizabeth O'Brien
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Interest in the field of Mental Hygiene and psychiatry has been stimulated by tensions of World War II. As in other communities there are mental hygiene and psychiatric facilities in Louisville. Kentucky. Since there is no available history compiled of this development such a study seems especially valuable at this time. How the community has gone about meeting the needs in this area of work in the past may be seen through such a study and may in turn prove a guide for future planning. The purpose of this dissertation is to trace the history and development of the Louisville …

A Study Of Forty-Three Patients Who Left Waverly Hills Sanatorium Against The Doctor's Advice During The Period September 1 Through December 31, 1942., Frances Fanelli
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Why do patients leave tuberculosis sanatoria against the doctor's advice? This study of home conditions of patients who left Waverly Hills Sanatorium, Waverly Hills, Kentucky, against the doctor's advice is an attempt to answer that question. We believed that by studying data regarding age, sex, occupation and marital status of the patients who left against the doctor's advice, the Sanatorium and the community could come to some understanding of the reasons for the patient's actions. How many patients were leaving against the doctor's advice? What was the size of the problem? Did these patients have active or arrested cases of …

A History Of The Financing Of The Private Family Agency, Louisville, Kentucky., Verna Schwab Will
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Finances play an important part in the operation of any business or organization. Quite often, it is a part that is little understood or studied except by the specialists in the financial field. A large proportion of the general public pays little more than a passing glance at the published financial papers of an organization. Particularly is this true of the welfare or social service organizations. Yet such agencies are usually the ones which come in for a greater share of criticism in connection with the expenditure of money. The purpose of this study, however, is not to attempt to …
A Follow-Up Study Of Thirty Eight Single Unmarried Mothers., Rose Migdal
A Follow-Up Study Of Thirty Eight Single Unmarried Mothers., Rose Migdal
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This study of thirty eight unmarried mothers known to the Children's Agency of Louisville, Kentucky is an attempt to find out what happens to these girls after the agency has terminated its contact with them. The study is not concerned with the problem of unmarried motherhood as such, but rather with the individual girl who gives birth to a child out of wedlock. The study, further, is not concerned with causal factors, the why and wherefore but rather with those conditions which brought the girl to a social agency when she finds that either she cannot help herself or her …

Home Instruction For Physically Handicapped White Children In Louisville, Kentucky 1939-1940 To 1943-1944, Inclusive., Caroline Finzer Gray
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Eighty-four children have been enrolled in Home Instruction given by the Louisville Public Schools, during the past five years, 1939-1940 to 1943-1944, inclusive. Home Instruction is given only to those children who cannot attend school, due to various physical handicaps. The writer feels that it will be profitable to examine the data collected concerning the eighty-four pupils, not only for the guidance of those intimately concerned with the Louisville program, but also for the information of similar workers in other cities and of the large numbers of lay people whose chief interest is due to their feeling that "the physically …

A Ten Year Study Of The Schools Of Hamlin County, South Dakota With Objectives For The Post War Period, O.A. Shuck
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Nearly all the writers in the field of public school administration have pointed out the defects and inadequacy of the small school district system in the various schools in the United States. The trend in governmental sub-divisions is away from the small unit in favor of the larger and more practical divisions. Many states have not taken any steps to reorganize the old school system, but South Dakota has made some progress through consolidation.

A History Of The Council Of Social Agencies Of Louisville, Kentucky., Mary Trueheart Williamson
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Community social planning has recently received the spotlight of attention under the impacts of war and its related demands for a united nation and community. But to those who have had a more intimate contact with the field of social work this is not a new development. For more than twenty years there has been in urban areas a steady growth of organizations known as councils of social agencies, welfare councils, or community councils whose job it has been to coordinate and plan the social welfare programs for the communities of which they are a part. As in other cities, …

Convalescent Care In Louisville, Kentucky., Grace B. Caswell
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This study is undertaken to survey and evaluate the adequacy of convalescent facilities available for indigent persons who have been under the care of the surgical service at the Louisville General Hospital. The adequacy of convalescent care will be measured first, in relation to its scope, second, in relation to its help to the patients, and third, in its interaction with other community agencies. The study is prompted by the recognition of the fact that convalescence is a sadly neglected field of medical care. Convalescence will be defined for the purposes of this study as the more or less gradual …

It aims (1) to examine the operations of the Kentucky law in the area of Jefferson County tor which the records were made available by the State Department of Welfare, Child Welfare Division, Frankfort, Kentucky, and (2) to measure the local procedure by the standard …

A Study Of Day Care Particularly In Reference To Louisville, Kentucky., Nancy Lee Johnson
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
A problem of great concern to many communities in the United States is that of day care of children of working mothers. Since the beginning of the defense program and particularly after the United States entered the war, wide publicity has been given to the problem of children left without supervision while their mothers worked. Communities that were affected by increases in population began to establish committees to cope with the situation. Numerous surveys were conducted in an attempt to measure the adequacy of existing facilities and the extent of the need for additional day care centers. Congressional action made …

A Study Of Twenty-Eight Working Mothers And Their Problems., Marianna E. Lawson
A Study Of Twenty-Eight Working Mothers And Their Problems., Marianna E. Lawson
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
What are the problems of working mothers was the question that was uppermost in our minds when we began our study of twenty-eight working mothers and their families. We felt that through examining data regarding ages, occupation, education, marital status, number of dependents, et cetera that we would be able to ascertain at once some of the difficulties these mothers were facing. We wanted to know how much of the financial burden the mother carried and whether she was showing any signs of strain because of her double duties of wage earner and housekeeper. What help did she have from …

Some Phases Of Pioneer Education On The Kentucky Frontier With Emphasis On Nelson County, 1785-1860., Wenonah Maraman
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
"Kentucky owed most of her remarkable intellectual development at an early age in her history, to the fact that at the close of the Revolutionary War in 1781 many of the most intellectual and cultivated of officers and soldiers in that war from the states of Virginia, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Maryland - being unsettled in their homes and business by its great duration privations and calamities - sought new homes in the then richest land in the known world. Thus, the times and the country itself, the very life of hardship, self-denial, and self-dependence, combined to make a race …

The Incidence Of Human Infestation With Trichinella Spiralis As Revealed By The Examination Of 570 Diaphragms At The Louisville General Hospital, Louisville, Kentucky., Letitia S. Kimsey
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
With the advent of improved methods of examination of muscle tissue for the presence of Trichinella spiralis and the detection of trichinosis by the skin and precipitin tests, there has been an awakening of interest in the disease which has resulted in a greatly increased volume of statistical data. The present survey was undertaken with the thought in mind that it might be of statistical interest to determine the incidence of infestation with Trichinella spiralis in patients coming to autopsy at the Louisville General Hospital. This incidence was determined by the examination of the diaphragms of these patients.

The Policies Of Presidents Buchanan And Lincoln In The Fort Sumter Crisis., W. L. Dennis
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The purpose of this study is to review the period between the election of Lincoln and the beginning of the Civil War, especially in regard to the influence Fort Sumter was to play in the actual commencement of hostilities. Even in the colonial days there had been a reluctance to enter into a strong central Union, although such a Union had been required by the strongest necessity of self-interest and self-preservation. The old Articles of Confederation had demonstrated the reluctance on the part of the States to yield their sovereignty to a central Government. Although the new Constitution of 1789 …
