  • Public Health Reports Vol.44 October 4,1929 No
    PUBLIC HEALTH REPORTS VOL.44 OCTOBER 4,1929 NO. 40 A STUDY OF RURAL SCHOOL VENTILATION THE SCHOOL VENTILATION STUDY IN CATTARAUGUS COUNTY, N. Y., 1926-27 Prepared by THOMAS J. DUFFIELD, Execuive Secretary and Director of Field Studies, New York Commnission on Ventilation 1 I. Introduction, The school ventilation study in Cattaraugus County, N. Y., is one of the three field studies undertaken by the New York Commission on Ventilation following its reorganization in 1926. In this study, as in that conducted in Syracuse, which has been reported elsewhere (1) (2) (3), the commission has been fortunate in collaborating with an enlightened public-health organization engaged in a "health demonstration." Both of these "demonstrations," testing the thesis Yf the late Dr. Hermann Biggs that public health is purchaseable, have received financial assistance from the Milbank Memorial Fund. This fund is also supportmg the current investigations of the com- mission, as it supported those of its predecessor, the New York State Commission on Ventilation. To the trustees of the Milbank Memorial Fund, to the officials of the Cattaraugus County Health Demonstration, to the superintend- ents of the rural school supervisory districts, and to the trustees of the various school districts, the commission expresses its appreciation for the opportunity of conducting this study. II. Object of the Study The primary object of the study was to determine just what were the air conditions in one and-two room rural sch-ools, with-the sec- ondary purpose of learning, if possible, how these air conditions affected the health of the pupils. Although the State department of education reports that it is unable to supply information concerning the number of one and two room rural schools and the number of pupils attending such schools either in Cattaraugus County or in the State as a whole, there is evidence that suggests that there are still more than 8,000 schools of this type in the State, with an average registration of more than 150,000 pupils.

    Welcome We are delighted to welcome CALDY RUFC to Kingston Park, Newcastle- Upon-Tyne. This is our fourth relocated home match due to the floods at Tynedale Park. We are again grateful to the management and staff at Newcastle Falcons for providing the use of their facilities in order to play our home matches. Caldy RUFC – Club History (Courtesy of Caldy web site) On February 27th 1924 when some Old Boys of Calday School, with the encouragement of the then Headmaster, R. T. B. Glasspool, they decided that they must carry on playing rugby together so the 'Old Caldeians' R.F.C. came into being at a meeting held at the Blenheim Café in West Kirby. They started playing in a farm field at Caldy cross roads and changing in the farm buildings at Croxton Farm, bathing facilities were somewhat primitive they used a tin bath which was filled from a tap in the farm Yard. In 1925 Sir Alfred Paton, an Old Boy of the school, bequeathed to The National Trust 20 acres land bordering Thurstaston Common with a proviso to the bequest stating that this area was to be available to the Rugby Club to use as a playing area in perpetuity. So Paton Field came into existence. In 1928 the club finally took possession of Paton Field and built a Clubhouse with three changing rooms. The club continued to play Rugby during the war years with the support of the school and members who came back home on leave. During the conflict the club lost a number of members killed.

  • EAST RIDING of YORKSHIRE HEARTH TAX ASSESSMENT MICHAELMAS 1672 by David and Susan Neave
    EAST RIDING OF YORKSHIRE HEARTH TAX ASSESSMENT MICHAELMAS 1672 by David and Susan Neave 1. INTRODUCTION This volume comprises the hearth tax returns for the historic East Riding of Yorkshire and the town and county of Hull.1 The East Riding, the smallest of the three Yorkshire ridings, covers some 750,000 acres (303,750 hectares). It is almost totally bounded by water with the Humber estuary to the south, the North Sea to the east, and the river Ouse to the west and south and river Derwent to the north. The boundary, around 200 miles in length, is only land- based for seven miles between York and Stamford Bridge and eight miles between Binnington Carr and North Cliff, Filey (Map 1).2 Hull, more correctly Kingston-upon-Hull, stands at the confluence of the river Hull and the Humber estuary. The riding divides into four main natural regions, the Yorkshire Wolds, Holderness, the Vale of York, and the Vale of Pickering (Map 2). The Yorkshire Wolds, a great crescent of chalk stretching from the Humber to the coast at Flamborough Head, is the most distinctive relief feature of the region. Essentially a high tableland of gently rolling downs dissected by numerous steep-sided dry valleys it reaches a maximum height of around 808 feet (246 metres) above sea-level near Garrowby Hill. At the coast the chalk cliffs rise up to 400 feet (120 metres). Along the western edge of the Wolds are the Jurassic Hills, a narrow band of limestone that broadens out to the north to form an area of distinctive scenery to the south of Malton.
