Her advice on love and marriage was syndicated in newspapers around the world. One of her most famous columns was her Dictates for a Happy Life. With an estimated audience of 60 million readers, she became a popular and recognized figure on her travels abroad.” ■ Dr. Joseph Milton Henry Papers contains information about the Land Between the Lakes ■ Hillman Papers, which have primary source material relating to the Hillman Land and Iron Company. ■ Robert Penn Warren Collection, collection recently highlighted on APSU’s library homepage.

Leo O’Donnell Archives ❍ CBU history ❍ The Edward F. Barry Collection ■ “Edward F. Barry was an outstanding civic leader, philanthropist, an avid sportsman and noted humanitarian. His personal archives of records show him to be the most outstanding Public Servant the City of Memphis has produced in the 20th Century.” ❍ The Reverend John Joseph Higgins Collection ■ “Father Higgins was one of those extraordinary people who heard an inner voice calling him, and who chose to answer by leaving his family and his homeland to help others….His mission…was the Republic of Bolivia in South America, once part of the Inca Empire.” ❍ The Leslie H. Kuehner Napoleon Collection ■ Collection Catalog ■ “Kuehner believed [this collection] may well have comprised the most complete private collection of its kind in the world….When the present collection arrived at Christian Brothers University it was a rich trove of approximately 1300 books and other Napoleonic memorabilia. While the collection is composed of books in twelve languages (English, Russian, Arabic, Flemish, Swedish, Japanese, Norwegian, German, Italian, French, Greek, Polish and Braille), only a handful of books are written entirely in French, Napoleon's native language. The real strength of this collection is its English materials which expose the British reaction to this French phenomena through books written during Victorian and Edwardian years about Napoleon and his campaigns. To put it in psychological terms, the British seem to have had a classic love-hate relationship for Napoleon which is captured in these materials. The British, especially after his death, loved Napoleon because he embodied the romantic ideal of the hero who brought down the ancient system of hereditary kings and princes. The British hated him, especially during his life, because he threatened their status quo, costing them the blood of their loved ones in the European theater, and set loose on their shores invasion hysteria.” ❍ The De La Salle Christian Brothers Midwest Province Archival Record & Museum Collections ■ “All accounts of functions, policies, decisions, procedures, operations and other activities which provide information about the Brothers of the former St. Louis District, the Central - Chicago District, the Winona - St. Paul and Minneapolis Districts and the Midwest District, shall be deposited in the Archives permanently. The archives shall serve as a source of valuable information and serious research, not a warehouse for storage.

  • A History of Iridium OVERCOMING the DIFFICULTIES of MELTING and FABRICATION by L
    A History of Iridium OVERCOMING THE DIFFICULTIES OF MELTING AND FABRICATION By L. B. Hunt The Johnson Matthey Group The use in unmanned space craft of iridium to encapsulate the radio- isotope thermoelectric generators, where temperatures of up to 20OO0C have to be withstood over several years of operation, with possible impact velocities of 90 metres per second, has focused greater attention on the remarkable properties of this member of the platinum group of metals. But these same properties of very high melting point and great mechanical strength have been the cause of difficulties in its melting and fabrication over a long period of years. How these problems were tackled and eventually overcome is described in this article. One of the less well-known members of the For some fifty years after the discovery of platinum group, iridium possesses quite platinum in South America and the early remarkable chemical and physical properties.
