Ringtown, Pennsylvania Farmers you look to as leaders look to Firestone for farm tires Mountains and ridges in the heart of the Pennsylvania coal country are laced with level valleys. In Schuylkill County's Ringtown Valley, modern methods and irrigation help Raymond Hetherington wrest high yields of quality vegetables and other crops. The Hetherington farm — halfway between Wilkes-Barre and Harrisburg — has earned a name for progress. Mr. Hetherington walked away with first place in the Schuylkill County Potato Quality Improvement Contest three times in six years. And Pennsylvania State University has chosen the Hetherington farm for a "Ringtown Variety and Seedling Project." The farm is an efficiently run operation — thanks in part to the dependable performance of Firestone tires. Raymond Hetherington counts on Firestones to keep him rolling the year around. "I've got Firestones on all my wheels," says Mr. Hetherington. "We've found that they're by far the best tires — we wouldn't buy any other brand." You can get the same top quality in tires and fast dependable service by getting in touch with your local Firestone Dealer or Store.

Created by Grove Atlantic and Electric Literature. Susan Bernofsky. In a remote Swiss village, a grandfather tells a story during a christening, a tale that portends evil at large in society and provides a vision of cosmic horror. Jeremias Gotthelf was the pen name of Albert Bitzius, a Swiss pastor and writer who used his work to communicate his reformist concerns with regard to education and the plight of the poor. Next Article Hunter S. Now while I do readily admit that Die schwarze Spinne is definitely and in particular wit So yes, I did have a pretty massive and extensively comprehensive mandatory reading list for my second comprehensive exam for my PhD in German literature and of course and naturally, Jeremias Gotthelf's frame narrative horror novella Die schwarze Spinne The Black Spider was as a classic of 19th century Swiss German literature featured on said list and therefore also and absolutely required reading. Now while I do readily admit that Die schwarze Spinne is definitely and in particular with regard to Jeremias Gotthelf's writing style and his modes of literary expression absolutely and definitely a shining example of Swiss Biedermeier but that I actually and personally do tend to consider Biedermeier as in fact being simply and primarily a part of poetic realism and thus not all that much if at all a separate literary epoch , I for one have mostly extremely and personally uncomfortably negative reading experience memories of Die schwarze Spinne.

  • A Survey of Duelling in the United States
    The Woman's College of The University of North Carolina LIBRARY COLLEGE COLLECTION CQ no. 652 Gift of MARTIN LUTHER WILSON " WILSON, MARTIN LUTHER. A Survey of Duelling in the United States. (1969). Directed by: Dr» Richard Bardolph. pp. t2» This thesis was undertaken to study duelling as an aspect of social history in the United States. The aim of the researciier was to go beyond mere cnronicling of particu- lar duels, in an effort to ascertain feelings and attitudes toward the practice. To obtain such information, both pub- lished and unpublished sources were consulted, to reconstruct the story of duelling as it developed in America. The duel grew out of European practices, particularly the chivalry associated with knighthood. The custom was later transported to America by European settlers, though few duels occurred before the American Revolution. The presence of aristocratic European officers in America during that con- flict influenced natives, who retained the duelling custom. The duel was present in all sections of the new nation until Aaron Burr killed Alexander Hamilton in 160^-. At that point the duel lost favor in the Northern states, but held on pri- marily in the Southern states. Northern political leaders and military men continued to duel from time to time, however. For conducting the duelling ritual, there were various sets of written rules, the most widely used being those compiled by Governor John Lyde Wilson of South Carolina. These rules laid down the principles that duels should be only betv/een social equals, that all negotiations be con- ducted by seconds chosen for that purpose, and that the ( actual encounter be carried out fairly under rules agreed upon beforehand.

  • Teaching Basic First-Aid Skills Against Home Accidents to Children with Autism Through Video Modeling
    Educational Sciences: Theory & Practice - 12(4) • Autumn • 2759-2766 ©2012 Educational Consultancy and Research Center www.edam.com.tr/estp Teaching Basic First-Aid Skills against Home Accidents to Children with Autism through Video Modeling Yasemin ERGENEKONa Anadolu University Abstract It is known that children with DD can learn first-aid skills and use whenever needed. Applying first-aid skills was taught to three inclusion students with autism through “first-aid skills training package”. In the study multiple probe design with probe trials across behaviors was used. The findings indicated that first-aid skills training package was effective and the subjects maintai- ned and generalized their acquired skills to the cuts, abrasions, and minor burns on their own or researcher’s different parts of body and to different materials. Social validity data that was collected through social comparison revealed that the subjects could not accomplish these tar- get behaviors before the intervention but their peers with normal development could accomplish these skills at 78% level. Key Words Basic First-Aid Skills, Safety Skills, Home Accidents, Video Modeling, Children with Autism. The longest term objective of the education of indi- may increase in the daily lives of those people (Col- viduals with developmental disabilities (DD) is to lins, Wolery, & Gast, 1991; Hoch, Taylor, & Rod- teach them the skills which are essential for them riguez, 2009; Mechling; Taber, Alberto, Seltzer, & to live as a part of the society as independent as Hughes, 2003). For this reason, it is very important possible. Individuals with DD have difficulties in for individuals with DD to be taught to be aware of giving information to their parents about the ne- safe and unsafe situations via their teaching prog- gative events that they face and have limitations rams (Mechling).

  • From Serfdom to Self-Government
    From Serfdom to Self-Government: Memoirs of a Polish Village Mayor, 1842-1927 Jan Słomka, mayor of Dzików, Galicia Translated by William John Rose, 1941, Minerva Publishing, London First Edition, 1912 (chapters 1-10) Second Edition, 1929 Copyright expired Excerpts Notes on coinage It is well know how money, when scarce, had far more value than it has today. As a result the problem of getting English equivalents for the Polish originals has not been easy. The unit in Słomka’s younger days was the Rhenish guilder, worth two gold francs or two Austrian crowns; and it was divided into a hundred parts (German Kreuzer=two heller). I have preferred ‘guilder’ to ‘florin’, and have used ‘farthing’ as the tiny unit—the hundredth part.
