Validity Of Scale Analysis As A Means Of Age Determination Of The Winter Flounder, Edgar L. Arnold Jr.

Open Access Master's Theses

A steadily decreasing yield in the winter flounder stock has led to a series of investigations into its life history by the Federal Fish and Wildlife Service, in an attempt to ascertain the cause of its decline. Disagreement in age determination by scale analysis has been responsible for much delay in solving an urgent problem. To devise an accurate method for determining age by scale reading, a series of specimens of gradually increasing sizes, beginning with those known to be of the currently-spawned stock, were selected and their scales subjected to detailed study.

Results showed that age can definitely be …

The Individual And The Kingdom Of God, Frederic A. Chandler

Graduate Thesis Collection

The Kingdom of God as depicted by Jesus Christ is the only human society that will effectually eliminate the conflict between the individual and society.

To prove this thesis, the succeeding chapter's will proceed as the nature of the subject dictates. First, as the individual human being is the fixed and unchangeable factor in this problem, the first step will be to give an adequate definition of a person. Next, since his conflict with his fellows reaches the very essence of his being when it touches his moral nature, morality will be defined and it will be shown what that …

The Increase In Rates, Amounts, And Complexity Of The Federal Income Tax And The Importance Of Accounting, Frank R. Demmerly

Graduate Thesis Collection

The author felt that a short history of world income taxes including the earlier American eras would provide a strong foundation on which to build the development of the present Federal income tax structure.

The problems arising in connection with these categories are discussed in the second chapter from the standpoint of the different returns filed. The third chapter presents the varied complex problems that …

Experimental Studies In Junior High School Monotonism, Lina Baldauf Knight

Graduate Thesis Collection

The individual who lacks the use of his voice as a musical instrument lacks the natural, fundamental medium of musical expression. Not only does he lack the means for the closest and most direct relationship with music, but also there is a serious danger that, as a result, his whole range of musical appreciation will be impaired and finally obliterated. This is likely to occur because he does not have at his command and under his control this power which he so definitely needs. Children who are thus handicapped are often designated by the use of the word monotone.

The North American Indian As Presented In Early Chronicles, Edith Stephens Blessing

English Language and Literature ETDs

The inhabitants of the newly discovered North American continent were of great interest to contemporary Europeans. What manner of creatures lived in this new land? Were they monsters? Were they men? A few Indians were brought back to Europe by Columbus, by Cartier, and by Smith, but these were seen by a limited number of the populace. The widespread impressions of the natives came, therefore, from the early writings, the chronicles, the reports, and the letters of the explorers and the first settlers. It is from these sources that the picture of the North American Indian was created for the …
