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.

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 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, …

Convalescence will be defined for the purposes of this study as the more or less gradual …

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 …


The Policies Of Presidents Buchanan And Lincoln In The Fort Sumter Crisis., W. L. Dennis May 1943

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 …


A Study Of Twenty-Eight Working Mothers And Their Problems., Marianna E. Lawson May 1943

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 Concept Of God In The Poetry Of The American Negro, Sister Mary Helena Jones Ssf Jan 1943

The Concept Of God In The Poetry Of The American Negro, Sister Mary Helena Jones Ssf

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This thesis, submitted to the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Xavier University in partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in 1943, traces the evolving concept of God in the poetry of the American Negro from the era of slavery through the early 1940s. Sister Mary Helena Jones examines the poets' treatment of the divine attributes of God, including His Power, Love, Justice, Goodness, Immutability, and Mercy, and His relation to man as Saviour, Friend, Master, Shepherd, and King, arguing that this faith, once central to Black religious and poetic expression, has weakened over …


History Of Public Secondary Education In Louisville., Harold S. Keeling Jan 1943

History Of Public Secondary Education In Louisville., Harold S. Keeling

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The development of secondary education in Louisville is significant because this city (together with the City of Covington) took the lead in establishing high schools in Kentucky. Although the state legislature from early days encouraged county seminaries and private academies, it gave practically no attention to high schools until 1908. After the Civil War various cities established high schools. There were few county high schools until the last decade of the century (1890-1900). Fifty-nine Kentucky high schools were accredited by the State University in 1908, but there 1 were perhaps as many unaccredited (with two or three year curricula). The …
