  • William Mcguffey and the Mcguffey Eclectic Readers by Karla Perry
    May 18, 2012 The Restoration of America: William McGuffey and the McGuffey Eclectic Readers By Karla Perry American children of the mid-nineteenth century were essentially educated by the works of one man, William Holmes McGuffey. The McGuffey Eclectic Readers sold 120 million copies between 1836 and 1920. These sales are comparable only to the Bible and Webster’s Dictionary.1 William Holmes McGuffey [1800-1873] began his educational profession at the age of fourteen after receiving a teaching certificate from his educator, Reverend William Wick. As instructed, he put an advertisement in the local paper that he would begin a four-month session of classes, six days a week, and eleven hours a day on the first day of September 1814. Forty-eight students assembled from the West Union, Ohio community, now Calcutta, Ohio. McGuffey drew his lessons primarily from the Bible.2 A traveling Presbyterian Pastor took notice of McGuffey’s teaching skills and offered to take him to reside in his home while he attended Old Stone Academy. McGuffey did so for the next four years. He then continued his education at Washington College for the next six years, where he worked the farm to pay for his education, taught, and studied. When he couldn’t afford to buy his books, he copied them longhand. Before completing his degree, he was offered to become a professor at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. He accepted this position which he held for ten years before moving to Charlottesville, Virginia, where he would be a professor at the University of Virginia for twenty-eight years.

  • Vertner Woodson Tandy Diverse Workforce 2021-22 Scholarship
    Vertner Woodson Tandy Scholarship Application Vertner Woodson Tandy Diverse Workforce 2021-22 Scholarship For Incoming Students 2751 Circleport Drive Erlanger, Kentucky 41018 (859) 331-9500 Sponsored by Al.Neyer, Inc. Vertner Woodson Tandy Scholarship Application This scholarship was established by Al. Neyer, LLC to increase the participation of females and minorities in the construction industry. It is named after Lexington, Kentucky–born Vertner Woodson Tandy (1885-1949). For him, construction ran in the family: His father was a respected mason whose firm built his hometown courthouse, among other prominent structures. After attending the Chandler School and the Tuskegee Institute, Tandy matriculated into Cornell to study architecture, where he was a founding member of the nation’s oldest African American fraternity. He would soon become the first black architect registered in New York state, where his landmarked structures include the 1910 St. Philip’s Episcopal Church in Harlem—the first black Episcopal church in New York and the second in the United States—which he designed with his firm partner George Washington Foster, the first black architect registered in New Jersey. Al. Neyer, LLC traces its inception to 1894. Gerard Joseph Matthew Neyer started a carpentry and contracting business in Cincinnati, OH. Today, Al. Neyer is an employee-owned corporation, led by Molly North, President & CEO, that designs, builds and develops projects in multiple states. For further information visit www.neyer.com. This scholarship will be awarded to an incoming first-year student in the Enzweiler Building (EBI) Institute who demonstrates strong potential and the desire to excel in the construction industry.

  • Emerson: a Brief History
    Old picture post card of Emerson, looking east toward Emerson Hotel and Linwood School. Emerson: A Brief History Beginnings e take for granted what Emerson is today - a bustling community of over 7,000 W residents, with modern roadways, our own public school system and retail establishments that cater to our many needs. But we didn’t get that way overnight, and our community’s foundations were laid long before we were incorporated as a borough in 1903. Prior to the first non-native settlers, what is today Emerson was part of a tribal territory of Lenape Indians. Since there’s no written record of their activity, we cannot be sure how intensively they used the land – whether they made settlements here or just passed through. But we are reminded of their presence by Kinderkamack Road, which gets its name from a Lenape word for the local area. Though the true meaning of Kinderkamack has been debated for many years, most historians now agree that it should be translated as “upland”, a reference to the prominent ridge that extends from western Emerson south to River Edge. Of course there was no “Emerson” when the first non-native settlers came to this region. The area was known by two unofficial names, the aforementioned Kinderkamack on the west, which included parts of present-day Oradell and River Edge, and Old Hook on the east, the “hook” from a Dutch word meaning “angle” or “corner”. That angle of land was delineated by three connecting water courses – the Hackensack River, the Pascack Brook and the Musquapsink Brook.

The end of this age is near, Tbut the excitement is far from over. These are the days that the prophets and righteous of old longed to see, and we get to live in them. There may not have been a greater honor than this, but also there may have never been a greater responsibility. Being responsible begins with understanding the times and our place in them. Then we must make an intentional effort to be prepared. Soon those who have done this and those who have not will be easy to distinguish. Just as the biblical prophecies foretold, an army is gathering like no other that the world has ever seen. It will be both the irresistible force and the immovable object. Where it marches, it will conquer. Where it takes a stand, it will not be moved. That it is now gathering is one of the great signs that the end of this age is at hand, and the King will soon come to establish His kingdom. It is time to prepare the way for the Lord.
