The Life of Justine Ward, her Work in Comparison to Orff and Kodaly, and Applications for the Public School Classroom. Published Doctor of Arts dissertation, University of Northern Colorado, 2006. Justine Ward was born August 7, 1879, into a life of great privilege, yet chose to devote her life to teaching her method, which was designed to teach the fundamentals of music instruction in order to equip students to sing chant. Although Ward’s method was used throughout the world during the first half of the twentieth century, it fell into disuse following Vatican II in 1962. There is no chronological history in English tracing the Ward Method from its inception to decline. This work provides such a history, with explanations of important people and topics that may be unfamiliar to the reader.

D., 1603-1673 of Monybroch, Ancrum, and Stranrear, Scotland, The Parish of Killinchy, County Down, Ireland, and of his Descendants in America LIVINGSTON OF CALLENDAR The earlier Scottish peerage writers state that a Livingus or Leving, a noble Hungarian, came to Scotland in the train of the Princess Mar­ garet when she and her brother, Edgar the Atheling, took refuge at Court of Malcolm Canmorc, whom Margaret married circa 1o68, and though quoted by others for many years, is clearly a tradition, as a com­ pari.on of dates clearly indicates. Later authorities claim him to have been undoubtedly of Saxon origin and cite the rivers Leven in Cumber­ land and in Yorkshire with manorial estates of Levington, and that these manors drew this name from being situated on these rivers, and were owned by Saxons circa 851.

  • Robert Fulton As an Artist
    Robert Fulton As An Artist By ELEANORE J. FULTON "A child of Lancaster, upon this land, Here was he born, by Conowingo's shade; Along these banks our youthful Fulton strayed, Dreaming of Art. Then Science touched his hand, Leading him onward, when, beneath her wand, Wonders appeared that now shall never fade: He triumphed o'er the Winds, and swiftly made The giant, Steam, subservient to command." 1 Thus wrote Lloyd Mifflin, a distinguished Lancaster Countian, artist, and "America's Greatest Sonneteer," of Robert Fulton, Lancaster County's most famous son.2 Robert Fulton, artist, civil engineer, and inventor, was born in Little Britain, now Fulton, Township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, November 14, 1765.3 The next year, the family returned to the town of Lancaster, where they had formerly resided, and where his father had been a useful and important citizen. 4 He was a founder of the First Presbyterian Church, leading the singing when the congregation occasionally met in the old Court House which stood in Center Square (and lies buried in its churchyard) ; 5 a charter member and secretary of the Union Fire Company, along with Adam 1 Lloyd Mifflin, "Robert Fulton."

CLAES lvIARTENSZEN VAN ROSENVELrf arrived in New Netherland, now New York, in one of the most memorable years in the history of his time, for it was about 1649, when the Dutch government was seriously embarrassed. A contest had been waged between the people and the Sovereign of England, as it had long be£ ore been carried on in the Netherlands. Oppo­ sition had been succeeded by revolt and civil war. Charles the First was beheaded in front of his own banqueting hall, an<l England declared a republic. The shock which troubled Europe was felt in America. In that year Winthrop died. The Dutch and other traders were forbidden to trade with the New England savages. Arms were brought to New Amsterdam from Holland, the people fearing that war would break out with the savages. Public opinion was running strong against Stuyvesant. Food was scarce. The winter was so cold that "ink froze in the pen.'' About this time a Burgher government was demanded, and dele­ gates were sent to Holland. Katskill and CI31-verack were settled. Stuyvesant opposed the reformers. Fort Nassau was demolished. Esopus (N. Y.) and Newtown (L. I.) were settled. The Burgher government was conceded to Manhattan. War was declared be­ tween the English and the Dutch nations. The Dutch built forti­ fications across New Amsterdam.

Bronson Cutting arid the Early Years of the American Legion in New Mexico RICHARD LOWITT It was Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., charged by a group meeting in Paris in February and March 1919 to return home and launch a veterans' organization, who involved Bronson Cutting in the American Legion. He asked Cutting to assist in identifying possible New Mexico delegates for a caucus to be held in S1. Louis. Cutting wired Roosevelt the names of forty men representing all branches of the armed forces. From this list two names, those of Lieutenant Colonel Charles M. de Bremond of Roswell and Private Canuto Trujillo of Chimayo, were seleCted by the national organization and included in the formal call issued by the temporary national committee. Roosevelt then requested that a temporary secretary and a tem­ porary central committee be selected in New Mexico and that a state caucus elect delegates for the S1.
