WAKE FOREST UNIVERSITY LIBRARY Alexander Baptist Association CONSTITUTION OF THE ALEXANDER BAPTIST ASSOCIATION PREAMBLE: We, the messengers of Missionary Baptist Churches in the County of Alexander, State of North Carolina, do hereby propose to establish and maintain the order and rules of a district Baptist Association in con- formity to the following plan: Article I. NAME The name of the body shall be the Alexander Baptist Association. Article II. PURPOSE The purpose of this Association shall be to counsel together for the enlargement and strengthening of God's Kingdom and for the promoting of unity and growth among the churches related to the Association. To this end the Association will cooperate with the North Carolina Baptist State Convention and the Southern Baptist Convention and their agencies in the work of Missions, Christian Education, and Social Service. Article III. MEMBERSHIP Section 1 : The Alexander Association shall be composed of the pastor and three messengers from each Missionary Baptist Church that vol- untarily cooperates as the Alexander Baptist Association, the general officers of the Association, chairmen of standing committees, and the pastor and messengers from any church that may hereafter be recognized as a cooperat- ing church by the Association. Section 2: A cooperating church shall be defined as follows: a. One that shares the missionary spirit of the Association, b. Elects and sends messengers to the annual meeting, c. Contributes financially to the work of the Association each year, and d. Provides an annual report to the Association upon the forms pro- vided by the Associational Clerk. Section 3: Any church may sever its working relationships with the Association at any time it chooses. Likewise, the Association may refuse to continue recognition of a church as a cooperating church when for two consecutive years without sufficient reason that church does not meet the stipulations stated in Section 2, or when for any other reason, approved by the Association in annual session, a church is considered by intent and ac- tion to be a liability to the fellowship and work of the Association. Alexander Baptist Association 5 Section 4: Churches desiring to relate themselves to the Association in its work and fellowship may do so by adhering to the following procedure: a. Make application to the Associational Fellowship Committee for recognition as a cooperating Baptist church, such application to be made at least three months before the annual meeting of the Asso- ciation. b. Furnish the Fellowship Committee the information required in the annual letter of churches to the Association, plus such other informa- tion as the Committee may request for properly evaluating the ap- plication. c. Upon recommendation by the Fellowship Committee and approval by the Association in annual session a church may come under the watch care of the Association for a period of one year. At the end of one year of watch care relationship and upon recommendation of the Fellowship Committee and approval by the Association, a church may be recognized as a cooperating church eligible to all privileges and responsibilities of a church cooperating in the work of the Alexander Association. d. During the period of watch-care relationship a church shall meet the stipulations of Section 2 above. e. In the case of new churches which anticipate a working relation- ship with the Association, duly elected representatives of the pro- posed church shall consult with the Moderator and Fellowship Com- mittee of the Association relative to the need for another church, its location, and its proposed ministry. Upon the recommendation of of the Fellowship Committee the Executive Committee shall author- ize such other assistance as is requested by the church or deemed necessary by the Executive Committee in developing a cooperating Missionary Baptist Church.

Baptista © 2009 Gregory S. Baptista Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy December 2009 ii The dissertation of Gregory S. Baptista was reviewed and approved* by the following: Mark S. Morrisson Associate Professor of English Graduate Director Dissertation Advisor Chair of Committee Robin Schulze Professor of English Department Head Sandra Spanier Professor of English and Women’s Studies James L.W. West III Edwin Erle Sparks Professor of English Philip Jenkins Edwin Erle Sparks Professor of the Humanities *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT This dissertation explores the presentation of the Spanish Civil War in selected American periodicals. Understanding how war-related works functioned (aesthetically and rhetorically) requires a nuanced view of the circumstances of their production and an awareness of their immediate cultural context. I consider means of creation and publication to examine the complex ways in which the goals of truth-seeking and truth-shaping interacted—and were acted upon by the institutional dynamics of periodical production. By focusing on three specific periodicals that occupied different points along a line leading outward from the mainstream of American culture, I examine the ways in which certain pro- Loyalist writers and editors attempted to shape the truth of the Spanish war for American readers within the contexts and inherent restrictions of periodical publication. I argue that responses to the war in these publications are products of a range of cultural and institutional forces that go beyond the political affiliations or ideological stances of particular writers.

    Prediction and Control: Global Population, Population Science, and Population Politics in the Twentieth Century by Emily R. Merchant A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) in the University of Michigan 2015 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor John Carson, Chair Professor Barbara A. Anderson Professor Howard Brick Professor Paul N. Edwards Acknowledgements In many ways, this dissertation was a joy to write. I found the topic fascinating when I began writing and it continues to fascinate me today. Going to the archives shaped the story in ways that I did not expect when I wrote the prospectus but that only deepened my interest in and commitment to this project. The enthusiasm of my advisors, research subjects, and interlocutors helped keep my own enthusiasm for the project high, even through difficult and frustrating moments in the archives and while writing. I could not have written this dissertation without the assistance and support of many people and organizations. The seeds of this dissertation were sown in Barbara Anderson's demographic theory and methods courses in the Department of Sociology at the University of Michigan, which I attended in 2008-2009 at the urging of Myron Gutmann. Myron Gut- mann and Barbara Anderson encouraged my critical interest in the history of demography, and this encouragement eventually led me back to the Department of History at the Uni- versity of Michigan, which I had left after earning my M.A. in 2005. I am grateful to John Carson for agreeing to be my advisor at our very first meeting, and to Kali Israel, Farina Mir, Nancy Hunt, and Gabrielle Hecht, who helped me successfully petition for re-admission to the Ph.D.

As we pause in the history of the New Hope Baptist Church and look back, truly we join in singing from our hearts a song of praise to God from whom all blessings flow. This centennial anniversary of our church is a time to pause and look back; to thank God for His guidance and blessings, to take stock of what has been passed on to us and then move on to higher and greater achievements for His glory. We cannot express in words our sincere affection for those who dared to be first. Their courage, faith, spiritual insight and dedication to God in 1874 challenges us today. Across the years many have entered into the labors, and despite small numbers, destruction of buildings, disappointments, poverty, rebuilding, depressions and problems, they have marched on in sacrificial devotion to the causes of Christ through this church.
