    For Reference Not to be taken from this library J Crawford. NJ. 07016 CRANFORO PUBLIC LIBRARY N.J. 2 1 3 9520 00116 7230 f\ high school yearbook should be more than merely a record of the seniors, their activities, and the work that they have done in their high school years. It should also relate and record the important events of the world which personally affect the students. The tragedy of November 22, 1963 is an event which can neither be forgotten nor ignored. Our yearbook is an attempt to correlate the prin- ciples of President John Fitzgerald Kennedy with the everyday events of our school life, so that we may dedicate ourselves to the achievement of the goals which he has set forth. We have chosen excerpts from the words of our late President to show the relationship between our activities and the more universal concepts with which he dealt. GOLDEN C 1 9 6 4 Cranford High School Cranford, New Jersey "Let the word go forth from this time and place to friend and foe alike that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Ameri- cans . ." Thus did John Fitzgerald Kennedy in his first and, as fate has cruelly ordained, his last inaugural address, personify his pro- found understanding of the role each generation plays as the link between our historic past and the promise and peril of the future. It was this recognition that no nation may rest upon the laurels of past greatness, coupled with his proud confidence that this generation could effectively carry the burdens of leadership which made John Kennedy a symbol to both young and old, but most especially to the young.

Or in the shower, but mostly at the conference. Even though the sessions we schedule focus on small businesses, particularly small retail businesses, there’s so much for me to learn as well— not just ways to help educate my readers, but also to help Yarn Market News and aspects of my own personal life. Branding, negotiating, trends—all of these things come into play. IStore owners who attend the conference tell me it changes their perspective on just about everything. The people who attend year after year keep coming back for that very reason (and it’s a point of pride for us, too). In an atmosphere of support and openness, we can discuss obstacles and challenges, share thoughts and ideas and so much more. Early next year we will return to Seattle for our annual meeting of the minds. A recurring “theme” for the shows has been “how to be successful in a changing economy.” We know it’s tough out there for all business owners.

  • Knitting in Australia: Artefact & Exegesis
    1 Knitting in Australia: artefact & exegesis Sue Green Approved for the award of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Swinburne University of Technology August, 2018 2 3 Abstract This project, undertaken by artefact and exegesis, draws together a book about knitting in Australia intended for a general readership, with a scholarly framework. The exegesis arises from issues identified in producing the artefact, an interview-based, non-fiction publication, Disruptive knitting: how knitters are changing the world. Its nine themed chapters are created through autoethnographic, Practice-Led Research based on reporting and interpreting 87 interviewers with knitters and related interviewees. This includes their knittings’ relevance to key social issues such gender, women’s role and social inequality. It enriches the discussion of how, for many, knitting has become a tool for rebellion, art making and activism on feminist and political issues. It examines and demonstrate knitting’s ability not only to reflect the wider Australian society, but to influence that society through both individual and collective acts of knitting in the context of the gendered nature of the craft.
