Oversize Collection Inventory of the Oversize Collection In the Regional History Center RC 200 1 INTRODUCTION The Oversize Collection consists of unbound items from various Regional History Center collections which are too large to store in regular archival boxes. Property rights in the collection belong to the Regional History Center; literary rights are dedicated to the public. There are no restrictions on access to the collection. SCOPE AND CONTENT The Oversize Collection contains five major groups of documents: posters and broadsides, photographs and prints, maps, newspapers, and certificates. The Embree Collection's railroad calendars and posters show the locomotives of various railroads from the late 1930s through the mid-1950s. The war poster collection contains 629 posters from World Wars I and II depicting recruiting, morale, propaganda, and production incentive. Due to the fragile condition of these posters the researcher will view the color slide reproductions instead of the actual posters. An item level inventory of the World War I and II posters can be found at the end of the finding aid: http://library.niu.edu/ulib/content/collections/ rhc/collections/RC/RC% 20200.pdf. Oversize photographs and prints include scenes of northern Illinois and local residents. The collection of regional maps includes nine pre-1832 maps of the Great Lakes region from the Nelson Collection and sixteen maps of Illinois from 1835-1911 showing the development of Illinois counties. There are also special purpose maps concerning Illinois rail lines, coal fields, highways, and climate. Maps of DeKalb show the development of the county and city from the 1842 forward. The collection of newspapers is maintained for use in exhibits and provides front pages for such things as the Pearl Harbor attack, the Chicago Fire, the ends of World War I and II, the Kennedy Assassination, the Chicago Bears Super Bowl title, and so on. DeKalb city and county special anniversary issues are also available here.

    Saving for Democracy University Press Scholarship Online Oxford Scholarship Online Thrift and Thriving in America: Capitalism and Moral Order from the Puritans to the Present Joshua Yates and James Davison Hunter Print publication date: 2011 Print ISBN-13: 9780199769063 Published to Oxford Scholarship Online: May 2012 DOI: 10.1093/acprof:oso/9780199769063.001.0001 Saving for Democracy Thrift, Sacrifice, and the World War II Bond Campaigns Kiku Adatto DOI:10.1093/acprof:oso/9780199769063.003.0016 Abstract and Keywords This chapter recounts the war bond campaign of the Second World War, illustrating a notion of thrift fully embedded in a social attempt to serve the greater good. Saving money was equated directly with service to the nation and was pitched as a duty of sacrifice to support the war effort. One of the central characteristics of this campaign was that it enabled everyone down to newspaper boys to participate in a society-wide thrift movement. As such, the World War II war bond effort put thrift in the service of democracy, both in the sense that it directly supported the war being fought for democratic ideals and in the sense that it allowed the participation of all sectors in the American war effort. This national ethic of collective thrift for the greater good largely died in the prosperity that followed World War II, and it has not been restored even during subsequent wars in the latter part of the 20th century. Keywords: Second World War, war bonds, thrift, democracy, war effort Page 1 of 56 PRINTED FROM OXFORD SCHOLARSHIP ONLINE (www.oxfordscholarship.com).

  • Reviews & Short Features
    Reviews of Books American History in Schools and Colleges: The Report of the Committee on American History in Schools and Colleges of the American His­ torical Association, the Mississippi Valley Historical Association, the National Council for the Social Studies. EDGAR B. WESLEY, di­ rector of the committee. (New York, The Macmillan Company, 1944. xiv, 148 p. I1.25.) Do Americans know their own history? For the past two years this question has been much discussed in the public press. Patriotic societies, luncheon clubs, and public-spirited organizations of many kinds have, in rising crescendo, answered it with a vigorous "No." More recently the New York Times and national weeklies have opened their columns to the discussion. The climax was reached when the results of a test of information about American history administered to several thousand recent graduates of high schools were published. This seemed to prove that the charge was true. It seemed also to prove that the blame for this deplorable situation must be laid to the schools. Such a challenge could not be ignored. It was eminently proper that the question should be examined by the national associations of scholars and teachers of American history, for these are in a real sense the offi­ cial custodians of our common responsibility in this matter. On the initiative of the Mississippi Valley Historical Association, which was quickly joined by the American Historical Association and the National Council for Social Studies, a committee of fourteen, representing all sec­ tions of the country and all school levels, was appointed to make a study of the matter.

  • Civilian Evacuation to Devon in the Second World War
    VOLUME 1 OF 2 CIVILIAN EVACUATION TO DEVON IN THE SECOND WORLD WAR Submitted by S.J. HESS as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History, 2006 CIVILIAN EVACUATION TO DEVON IN THE SECOND WORLD WAR Submitted by Susan Jane Hess, to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History, July 2006. This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. ………………………………………. 1 ABSTRACT Extensive sources have been reviewed and analysed to piece together for the first time a detailed academic study of civilian evacuation to Devon1 viewed against the national backdrop. The primary focus of this thesis is the large number of unaccompanied children who were officially evacuated to the County under the auspices of the Government Evacuation Scheme during the Second World War. However, Chapter Six discusses the evacuation of mothers and accompanying children, unofficial (private) evacuees and private school parties. The majority of evacuated children arriving in Devon originated from the London area and southeastern counties. In addition large numbers of children were also evacuated to the County from Bristol and within the County from Plymouth (Devon) during 1941 and briefly from Exeter in May 1942. Each of the three national evacuation waves is considered individually throughout the text as they are quite distinct in complexion, a fact frequently ignored in generalised accounts which tend to focus on reaction to the initial wave.

This is the second of two CSD Working Papers covering the history of school-based savings programs. The first paper covers the early history of school savings banking during the Progressive-era, 1870-1930. This paper focuses on school-based savings programs from the early 1930s to contemporary times. Ultimately, this research aims to discover how these historical and contemporary school-based savings programs were started and managed, who has participated in them, their underlying values, their results and impacts, and implications for future asset-based programs for children and youth. Starting where the first paper ended, we examine School Savings Banks (SSBs) from the early 1930s to 1940. During the 1930s, School Savings Banks (SSBs) experienced a slowdown due to economic hardship and distrust of banks after the 1929 stock market crash. Starting in the early 1940s, the history of school-based banking dovetails with children’s activities on the home front during the Defense period and later during World War II (1941-45).
