    Wichita Area Library Association WALA News Volume 21, No. 3 Summer President’s column Another busy school year is coming to a close. This will also be our last newsletter this year, and the last one edited by Amy Arnold. We will be sad to see her go, and hope she remains active in WALA. Babies can be time consuming, but Amy will still miss us. Right? :-) I would like to give a HUGE thank you to Sharon Ailsliegar, chair of the WALA 30th Anniversary Committee. Sharon and the committee members all did an outstanding job of pulling together a very impressive program for the Kansas Library Conference held April 11-13. Cindy Bailey, a 30th Anniversary Committee member, also happened to be the KLA Confer- ence Local Arrangements Chair, and deserves special thanks from the Board as our liaison to the Hyatt Conference Center. We served white (banana) and chocolate cake on the morning of Thursday, April 12, at conference, and promoted not only our anniversary, but our Annual Meeting, as well. We have one more event before my term is finished. Our Annual Meeting will be May 17 at Eberly Farms. Unfortunately, our original program was changed when Jeff Davidson, the cowboy poet, was in a car accident. However, we were quickly able to find a replacement speaker, and I think you will be pleased with the program. A WALA business meeting will also be part of our Annual Meeting. We will vote on an addition to the by-laws and have elections. WALA is a very important part of our library community.

  • 80 Kansas History “Peerless Princess of the Southwest”: Boosterism and Regional Identity in Wichita, Kansas
    “Corn is King” (1887). Courtesy of the Wichita-Sedgwick County Historical Museum. Kansas History: A Journal of the Central Plains 38 (Summer 2015): 80–107 80 Kansas History “Peerless Princess of the Southwest”: Boosterism and Regional Identity in Wichita, Kansas by Jay M. Price n 1887 the Wichita Board of Trade issued an elaborate map celebrating the city’s prominence as a regional trade and commercial center. Wichita appeared as a bustling powerhouse of activity in Kansas and the central United States. Exaggerated scale highlighted Wichita’s purported status as a hub of rail lines that extended to New Orleans, Galveston, El Paso, Los Angeles, Denver, Kansas City, Omaha, and Chicago. Equally striking were the slogans and titles that described the city as the “Peerless Princess of the Plains,” the “Magical Mascot,” the “Mecca of Men,” the I“Jerusalem of the West,” and the “Favored City.” In the upper corner was a blank space for a sponsoring organization. The Wichita Journal of Commerce, for example, did so, mentioning that it was in “the Great Southwest, Wichita, Its Metropolis.”1 A century later, equating Wichita with the Southwest would seem odd. By the 1980s, the term “southwestern” evoked images of howling coyotes, saguaros, Mexican food, and adobe architecture.2 Depending on the speaker, Wichita was a city of the Midwest, which extended from Kansas to the Great Lakes; the Great Plains, which ran from the Dakotas down to Texas; or an ill-defined “Heartland,” where fields and farms extended to the flat horizon, punctuated by massive grain elevators. Regardless of specific regional affiliation, however, one feature stood out: location.
