The quest for interested new members goes on continually, and your help is solicited in obtaining them. In every family, and in every community, there are individuals who are sincerely interested in the collection, preservation and dissemination of the his­ tory of Missouri. Why not nominate these people for membership? Annual dues are only $2.00. Life Memberships $40.00. R ichard 5.

To remail a returned issue of the REVIEW under new postal rates is very expensive. In addition to elim­ inating this costly procedure, the immediate notifica­ tion of a change of address will enable the member to receive the REVIEW at an earlier date. Changes of address should be sent to: State Historical Society of Missouri Corner of Hitt and Lowry Streets Columbia, Missouri 65201 SOCIETY TO PRESENT AWARDS At the Annual Meeting in October the Society will confer three awards. An engraved citation and a medal­ lion will be awarded to a member who has given distin­ guished service to the Society and to the State of Mis­ souri in the promotion and dissemination of knowledge concerning the history of our region. A second en­ graved citation and a one-hundred-dollar cash award will be given for the REVIEW article during the calendar year which has contributed most in depth in a scholarly and popular sense to the history of our State. The two- hundred-fifty-dollar Floyd C. Shoemaker History Award will be presented to a Missouri senior high school student who has written the best historical article that relates to Missouri events or personalities. The distinguished member will be selected by a three-member committee appointed by the Society president. One member of the selection committee will serve for two years and two members for one year. No active officers or trustees of the Society, with the excep­ tion of past presidents, may be nominated for the Dis­ tinguished Service Award. Nominations should be made in writing to Richard S. Brownlee, director of the Society, any time during the calendar year. The prize- winning article will be selected by three historians ap­ pointed by the editor of the REVIEW.

Shoemaker History Award will be judged by the Department of History of the University of Missouri-Columbia. CONTENTS COMMEMORATING GEORGE CALEB BINGHAM: AN EXHIBIT 407 MR. BINGHAM'S TOMBSTONE.

Day by day he studied the Missouri riverman, the farmer, the local politician and the frontier villager, reproducing these familiar figures in great genre paintings. His fine portraits included prominent Missourians of his day. These paintings are valued as masterpieces of color and composition in their sensitive portrayal of Missouri frontier life. Born March 20, 1811, in Augusta County, Virginia, Bingham's family moved to the Boone's Lick Country of Central Missouri in 1819. Although apprenticed to a Boonville cabinetmaker at the age of 16, he turned to portrait painting in the 1830s. Lacking formal training, Bingham visited Philadelphia in 1838 where he was briefly exposed to the study of color and works of art. In 1840, he moved to Washington, D.C, where he spent four years painting portraits of prominent political figures. Returning to Missouri in 1844, he began to paint genre pictures of the river, political scenes and frontier life. In 1856, Bingham received a commission to paint full-length portraits of 407 408 Missouri Historical Review Washington and Jefferson for the Missouri State Capitol, and from 1856 to 1859, he proceeded with this work in his Dusseldorf, Ger­ many, studio. Later he received commissions from the state legislature for portraits of Clay and Jackson. Politics also intrigued Bingham. He was elected to the state legislature in 1848, appointed state treasurer in 1862-1865 and ad­ jutant general of Missouri in 1875. In 1877 he became professor of Art at the University of Missouri. Bingham died in Kansas City, July 7, 1879. A fine colorist, Bingham used an unusual palette to achieve mood, perspective, light and atmosphere with smokey, sometimes im­ pressionistic, off-shades and brush work.

PUB DATE 1998-11-00 NOTE 31p.; Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the National Communication Association (84th, New York, NY, November 21-24, 1998). PUB TYPE Reports Research (143) Speeches/Meeting Papers (150) EDRS PRICE MF01/PCO2 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Communication Research; Higher Education; *Organizational Climate; *Organizational Communication; *Story Telling; *Student Attitudes; Universities; Values ABSTRACT This study examined the culture of a university by analyzing its stories. Stories were collected over a period of five years at a large midwestern research university. Results suggest that a strong student subculture is frequently in conflict with the organization's dominant tradition-based culture. Stories illustrate the conflict between these two, as well as provide examples of unity between them. Other stories are ambiguous, not clearly espousing any values. In this way, the analysis suggests the importance of using all three perspectives on organizational culture defined by J. Martin (1992). The results seem applicable to studying other organizations as well, since stories of conflict and unity may provide insight into organizations' cultures. Contains 21 references and a figure illustrating the typology of organizational stories.

THE IDEOLOGICAL ORIGINS OF THE FOURTEENTH AMENDMENT Daniel A. Farber* and John E Muench** Most of the vast historical literature about the fourteenth amendment addresses the legislative intent regarding specific is­ sues such as school segregation. Our purpose is broader. Our concern is less with whether the framers believed in school segre­ gation than with how they felt about natural law. What did they regard as the sources of human rights? How did they think those rights related to the Constitution? In what ways did they expect the amendment to change that relationship? How did their ideas about rights relate to their thoughts about citizenship and govern­ ment, and to the experiences of Civil War and reconstruction? Our goal, then, is an intellectual history of the amendment. Our thesis is that the fourteenth amendment was based on a coherent theory of government. By the time it attained power in 1861, the Republican party had become identified with a well-ar­ ticulated theory of rights.
