(I was born GARDEN Mblessed with an identical twin sister.) I recall our entering Old Orchard Jr. High where the three local grammar schools merged, excited to move with large packs of our fellow pubescents while being exposed to diverse and interesting concepts — plus, boys. NOW OPEN! When I had kids of my own, unlike the omnipresent “buckle your seatbelt” Visit zoo.org for more information warnings we all hear about middle school, I found their experiences to be a most fascinating time that I have come to cherish. Don’t get me wrong — we faced nearly every predictable issue of this age and then some, from bullying (lightweight, thankfully) and awkward puberty to posturing for popularity. But I always found there to be “Magic in the middle” (p. 13) that stemmed from our kids wanting more independence as they contemplated who they wanted to be as adults. Being Jewish, we also had a built-in ritual to acknowledge this important threshold. At age 13, our kids became accountable for their actions as they began presenting their insights on their weekly portion of the Torah, then merging their thoughts with the great commentators of the past and present. No matter how bumbling or clumsy each kid is when approaching their bar (or “bat,” for girls) mitzvah day, they are magically elevated at this life-changing moment as they are lovingly embraced by the community. Our executive editor and reformed middle-school-fearing feature writer Natalie Singer-Velush captures this magic as she masterfully elicited wit and wisdom from a pack of local kids as they enter sixth grade. Deep gratitude to our dear friend and gifted photographer Will Austin for capturing their spirits so beautifully. Also new this month: Our column “Full STREAM ahead” (p. 9). The debut piece features, among other science superstars, self-described nerd and MIT graduate Dianna Cowern. At first, we all said “Who?”, clueless that her Physics Girl YouTube program has more than 19 million views. She’s the Neil deGrasse Tyson of tomorrow and one of many must-know scientists motivating the most reluctant learners to be enthusiastic about science, technology, robotics, engineering, arts and math. corrections Finally, if you’re getting close to back-to-school anxiety, jump to our In the 2016 Golden Teddy Out and About feature, “Bellingham” edition, ParentMap incorrectly (p. 23). Better yet, pack this issue and listed Dr. Diane Tung as a hit I-5 N and in 90 minutes you’ll find dentist at Lynnwood Kids endless opportunities to paddle, bike, Dentist; she has left that hike, explore and play. practice and started her own, Happy final days of summer!

Hagen A Thesis in the Field of History for a Degree of Master of Liberal Arts in Extension Studies Harvard University November 2017 Copyright 2017 Paul B. Hagen Abstract Founded in 1851, Seattle was little more than a rough-and-tumble frontier town at the onset of the Civil War. However, by 1880 the young community had developed into a small, but prosperous city. Not only did the population grow immensely during this time, but the character of the town also changed. By 1880 Seattle was no longer just another western logging town, but rather a civilized metropolitan center. Although the rapid development of Seattle is widely accepted, the connection between it and the Civil War has not been reported. Historical data suggest that the Civil War did influence the development of Seattle. The Civil War caused Seattle’s population to grow through recruitment of unemployed war widows and orphans. These recruits brought New England culture to Seattle, which served as a civilizing force. The Civil War also led to policies that helped Seattle develop in other ways.

  • Methodist Pioneers, Founding Fathers of Seattle by Everett W
    Methodist Pioneers, Founding Fathers of Seattle by Everett W. Palmer Presiding Bishop of the Seattle Area, The Methodist Church. ERHAPS no major city in the United States owes quite as Pmuch to Methodist pioneers as Seattle, Washington. Most of its founders were Methodists, as were those who played a dominant role in the early and decisive years of its development. Most, if not all, of the first settlers were Methodists. The &st church established was a Methodist Church. The first school was conducted by the wife of a Methodist minister in the Methodist parsonage. The first uni- versity, now the University of Washington, was founded through the initiative of a Methodist minister supported by a loyal Method- ist laity. And this is but a sample. Let us reverse the calendar a century. It is September 25,1851. A party of three men paddle up to the shore of what is now West Seattle. It is the end of a long journey. Since early April they have traveled, first by wagon train from their homes in Illinois to the Willamette Valley, and from there by foot and Indian canoe to the "Puget Sound country." They have been sent ahead by other mem- bers of their party to explore this region and determine its promise. The oldest of the group is John Low, 31. The other two are David Denny, 19, and Lee Terry, also a teen-ager. A tribe of Indians nearby is busily engaged, fishing for salmon. Their chief, a noble man of regal bearing, strides down the beach to bid them welcome.

Leonard, Ph.D., Chair _________________________________ Lisa Guerrero, Ph.D. _________________________________ Thabiti Lewis, Ph.D. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENT As I think about this dissertation and all the people who played some part in its creation, it is hard to know who to thank first. Yet, perhaps it would be fitting to begin with my dissertation chair, David J. Leonard, whose outstanding mentorship and support has been instrumental to this project. In addition, I was also honored to have Lisa Guerrero and Thabiti Lewis serve on my committee, therefore their service has also been appreciated. Several other Washington State University faculty and staff have made major contributions to my growth and development in the American Studies Ph.D. program including C. Richard King, chair of the Critical Culture Gender and Race Studies (CCGRS) Department, Rory Ong, director of the American Studies Program, and Rose Smetana, Program Coordinator for CCGRS. Moreover, all the faculty and staff of Comparative Ethnic Studies, Women Studies, and other departments/programs who worked with me deserve special acknowledgement for providing invaluable knowledge and guidance.

    Media History Monographs 15:3 (2012-2013) ISSN 1940-8862 College President to Cattle Town Editor: Asa Mercer And Frontier Journalism on the Northern Plains Ross F. Collins North Dakota State University, Fargo Abstract This research looks at cattle town newspapers of the Old West by considering the career of one frontier editor, Asa Shinn Mercer. Mercer became a newspaper editor and publisher after leaving the University of Washington. He eventually published the Northwestern Live Stock Journal in Cheyenne, Wyoming Territory. Beginning with this editor, the research examines other primary and secondary sources to find connections with significant but less-researched cattle town newspapers on the northern plains: the Yellowstone Journal, Bad Lands Cow Boy, Black Hills Daily Times, and Sturgis Weekly Record. These cow town papers are examined for and their attitude toward cowboy culture and the range cattle business. The researcher discovered cow town newspapers did not reflect the industry in a similar manner, possibly based on their location and patronage of cattlemen. ©2013, Ross F.

  • The Pritchards of Hyattville, Wyoming and Why They Left West Virginia
    The Pritchards of Hyattville, Wyoming and why they left West Virginia By Linda Huey and David Dronsick The Pritchard family in West Virginia around 1900 before moving to Wyoming. Top row: Jennie, Addie, Alice, Clara Middle row: Lucy, Thomas Tavner and Lucy Ann Elizabeth (the parents), Cort Front row: Irl Preface “Count me in!” was my excited response during a conversation at the Thanksgiving dinner table in 2014. My brother, Paul Huey, and his wife, Lois, retired archaeologists who love to travel, had just announced that they were planning to take a trip to Wyoming. Suddenly my sleeping sentimental memories and desire to return awakened with a jolt. I hadn’t been there since I was a child when we visited my mother’s relatives in 1949, 1957, 1961, and 1963. We would drive in our 1949 Ford from where we lived in New York State when few super highways existed. Now it had been more than 50 years, and time for another trip. I nostalgically remember our wonderful visits to my mother’s Aunt Jennie and Uncle Ralph’s ranch near Hyattville in Big Horn County. Addie Pritchard, my mother’s mother, seemed to have been particularly close to her sister, Jennie Pritchard, who had married Ralph Mercer. Addie had died shortly after I was born, but for my mother, there was still Jennie to visit, as well as other Pritchards in Hyattville. My mother’s grandparents Thomas Tavner and Lucy Ann Elizabeth Pritchard were long gone, but their children (her aunts and uncles) were all still in Wyoming - Jennie, Alice, Lucy, Clara, Irl, and Cort - not to mention the many cousins she grew up with.
