Ube 1Loohout VOL. XVIII. APR! L, 1913. No.7. A Junior week has been planned which, if satisfactorily carried out will prove successful. The prime object of this mid-term occasion, this clustering around Memorial Day of the various social events of the spring season, is to afford a pleasant week of entertainment to the young men who having visitors naturally desire to present the college when it is at its greatest social height. Nature at this tin1c is most attractive with her blossoms ancl rrturnin?· crcatt1res, and the customary beauty of Storrs becomes even more delicious as balm­ laden June steals over the hills. ·visitors cannot but feel a new life as the cool, bracing atmosphere contrasts with the svveltering ait of the city. No sounds of th metropolis are heard, but the troubled tumult frotn a rollicking dormitory must to newcomers at fir st be startling, althong·h in perfect keeping ,.vith the fre clom and joyousnes of the surrounding campus. Social activity con1bined with natural beauty means a wider knowledge and deeper appreciation of the college. Contrary to expectation, the military battalion does not go into camp this spring. The object of the camp is to acquaint the cadets with the conditions and dispositions familiar to the regular army camp. Lieutenant Goodwin found it impossible to obtain regulation army tents without incurring heavy expense. The circus tents, the college standbys, might, to be sure, be used, but the military arrange­ ment into streets and squads of eight men to a tent would be marle impossible. Moreover the possibility of a stormy week like the camp week of last year cooled the ardor of all concerned. Although the idea of camping in the open has heen abandoned, still the selected week from a military standpoint will not be a dead loss. The time wi ll he devoted to military exe rci ~ e s at the college. 148 TI-IE LOOKOUT Q)liver <Bolbsmitf1 One writing a sketch of Oliver Goldsmith might almost use as a caption the title of a recent novel, The Beloved Vagabond. How much so ever he may have been a trial to his family and to his friends, those very qualities that met with and deserved their disapproval, -his impulsiveness, his lack of financial responsibility, his utter want of any regulative sense of order in his life,-endears him to his reader. More than most writers he makes them understand the fine simplicity of his character, his absolute sincerity, and his fidelity to truth. But in its conduct his life would hardly present a model even to his most beloved reader. Yet his writings, his sentiments, his feel­ ings, his fidelity to details, go straight to the heart. If he has no conscious philosophy of life, he at least presents life or one side of it with a kindly humor that brings a smile to the lips of him who reads even to-day the reflections, the pictures, the adventures, and the ex­ periences of Goldsmith.

Alfred Harmsworth, Lord Northcliffe (1865-1922), acquired The Times newspaper in 1908. In adding the most influential and reliable voice of the British establishment and of Imperially- fostered globalisation to his growing portfolio of newspapers and magazines, Northcliffe aroused some opposition among those who feared that he would rely on his seemingly infallible ear for the popular note and lower the tone and weaken the authority of The Times. Northcliffe had long hoped to prise this trophy from the control of the Walters family, convinced of his ability to make more of the paper than they had, and from the beginning applied his singular energy and intuition to improving the fortunes of ‘The Thunderer’.

    29004_U01.qxd 2/6/06 3:54 PM Page 13 Chapter 1 American Variety and/or Foreign Features The Throes of Film Distribution Imagine that you are a young woman who has decided to join one of your store clerk or stenographer friends going to the movies after work in down- town Des Moines, Iowa, in the spring of 1913. On Sunday, May 4, you read the Des Moines News and know what programs will be playing in at least four moving picture theaters that next week.1 On Tuesday, for instance, what are your choices? At the Casino (just opened in December) is Pathé’s Weekly (a newsreel), Essanay’s The Crazy Prospector, and Vitagraph’s Cinders. At the Fam- ily, Bison-101’s two-reel The Indian’s Secret and Billy’s First Quarrel. At the Unique, Majestic’s two-reel Children of St. Anne and Her Sister’s Secret. The Colonial has a special feature (running all week), the five-reel Satan or “The Drama of Humanity . from Creation to the present time.”2 Which theater you and your friend choose could depend on several factors, but, as a fre- quent moviegoer, you could count on familiarity and the relative quality of the variety programs at three of these theaters, each changed daily and sup- plied by a different film service or distributor: the Casino (General Film), the Family (Universal), and the Unique (Mutual). You also could be attracted, however, by Satan’s promotion as a sensational historical epic or by its nov- elty as a special feature (from Europe, no less), since the only previous film of four reels or more to play in the city was Queen Elizabeth, with Sarah

  • Historical Overview of the National Woman's Party
    Historical Overview of the National Woman’s Party Origins in the NAWSA Congressional Committee The origins of the National Woman's Party (NWP) date from December 1912, when Alice Paul (1885-1977) and Lucy Burns (1879-1966) were appointed to the National American Woman Suffrage Association’s (NAWSA) languishing Congressional Committee. Paul and Burns were young, well-educated Americans who worked with Emmeline and Christabel Pankhurst in the militant wing of the British suffrage movement. Radicalized by their experiences in England–which included violent confrontations with authorities, jail sentences, hunger strikes, and force-feedings–they sought to inject a renewed militancy into the American campaign. They also endeavored to shift NAWSA’s attention away from winning voting rights for women at the state and local levels to securing an amendment to the U.S. Constitution to enfranchise women nationally. Their first activity on NAWSA’s behalf was to organize a massive national suffrage parade in Washington, D.C., in March 1913. This parade was modeled on the elaborate suffrage pageants held in Britain and local marches organized in New York by the Women’s Political Union (WPU) and its leader Harriot Stanton Blatch (1856-1940). Blatch, the daughter of Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815-1902), married an Englishman and became active in the militant British suffrage campaign. She supported NAWSA’s appointment of Paul and Burns, who shared her enthusiasm for British- Contingent of women representing foreign countries in the March 3, 1913, suffrage parade in Washington, D.C.

About this image The March 3, 1913, parade coincided with President Woodrow Wilson’s inauguration and put the president-elect and Congress on notice that NAWSA would hold the Democratic Party responsible if it failed to pass a women’s suffrage amendment.

Carlgren, 1888-1920 Date Published: n.d. MICROFILMS OF GERMAN FOREIGN MINISTRY RECORDS RECEIVED BY THE US DEPARTMENT OF STATE ON THE GERMAN WHITE BOOK, 1939, AND FROM THE SWISS GOVERNMENT, AUSTRALIAN GOVERNMENT, THE LONDON SCHOOL OF ECONOMICS, AND FOR DR. W. CARLGREN, 1888-1920 Introduction This microfilm publication consists of seven rolls of microfilmed German Foreign Ministry records, mostly for the pre-1920 period, that constitute selected documents from specialized collections or filmings of specific series that are typically unavailable elsewhere among NARA holdings. For example, roll 2 contains reproductions of records excerpted from two of five reels of records filmed by the Swiss Government; rolls 3 and 4 reproduce documents filmed on four of 14 reels filmed by the Australian Government; and rolls 5 and 6 reproduce selections from four of 37 reels filmed by the London School of Economics. Some of the selected documents are reproduced elsewhere on Microfilm Publication T120, Records of the German Foreign Ministry, especially in serial 6377, roll 2843, serial 6378, roll 2857, and serial 6392, roll 2859. The best general description to these records, including specific references to all the pertinent microfilming projects, remains that prepared by the American Historical Association Committee for the Study of War Documents, A Catalogue of Files and Microfilms of the German Foreign Ministry Archives, 1867-1920 (Oxford, 1959).
