  • The Ruth Atwood Black Collection of Alexander Black and Edith O'dell Black Collection #4
    THE RUTH ATWOOD BLACK COLLECTION OF ALEXANDER BLACK AND EDITH O'DELL BLACK COLLECTION #4 SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE This collection was presented to St. Lawrence University in July 1980 by Ruth Atwood Black, daughter-in-law of Alexander Black. Alexander Black was the originator of the "picture play," the fore-runner of the motion picture, and was the pioneer of the screen drama. This collection contains an original manuscript of one of these "picture plays" and other works by Black. Also contained in this collection are approximately 275 letters sent to Edith O'Dell Black and Pomeroy Burton of the New York World from around 1903 to 1944. The letters are by eminent journalists, educators and authors of the first third of the twentieth century and often contain lengthy responses to queries by the World editors. The collection also contains around 50 copies of Edith O'Dell's letters to her various correspondents; several autographed manuscripts, signed; and newspaper clippings (xerox copies) relating to the achievements of Edith O'Dell, Alexander Black and their contemporaries. St. Lawrence University does not own the literary rights to this collection. BIOGRAPHICAL Alexander Black was born in New York City on February 7, 1859. After a grammar school education he became a reporter for the Brooklyn (N.Y.) "Times" and later became the literary and art editor for that paper. Black became interested in photography early in his career and eventually became a leading authority on the camera. In 1886 he became the first president of the department of photography in the Brooklyn Institute of Arts and Science.

From this event developed over a one hundred year span the international War on Drugs. This examination stems from the belief the War on Drugs fails as a policy aimed at addressing public health and safety concerns. Rather, the War on Drugs fosters criminality that presents an even greater threat to public health and safety. This examination seeks to understand the historical framework of the international War on Drugs. Research found the U.S. largely responsible in both philosophy, creation, and enforcement in instituting international narcotic policy. An examination of U.S.

  • Johnstown, Pa
    Chapter 1 Springtime in the mountains. Graceful slopes and frowning precipices robed in darkest green of hemlock and spruce. Open fields here an there verdant with young grass and springing grain, or moist and brown beneath the plow for the planting time. Hedgerow and underwood fragrant with honeysuckle and wild blackberry bloom; violets and geraniums purpling the forest floor. Conemaugh creek and Stony creek dash and plunge and foam along their rocky channels to where they unite their waters and form the Conemaugh river, hastening down the Ohio, to the Mississippi, to the Mexican gulf. Trout and pickerel and bass flash their bronze and silver armor in the sparkling shallows of the streams and in the sombre and placid depths of the lake up yonder behind the old mud dam. Along the valley of the Conemaugh are ranged villages, towns, cities: Conemaugh, Johnstown, Cambria, Sang Hollow, Nineveh, and others, happy and prosperous. Conemaugh nestles at the very foot of the Alleghenies; all railroad trains eastward bound stop there to catch their breath before beginning the long climb up to Altoona. Sang Hollow nestles by the river amid almost tropical luxurance of vegetation; yon little wooded islet in midstream a favorite haunt of fishermen. Nineveh is rich in bog iron and coal, and the whirr of the mill-wheel is heard. Johnstown, between the two creeks at their junctions, is the queen city of the valley. on either side the creek, and beyond, the steep mountain sides; behind, the narrow valley reaching twenty miles back to the lake before, the Conemaugh river just beginning its romantic course.
