A duck of some sort skirts the still water headed north (must be that mo- ment between the incoming and outgo- ing tides). I can see houses, a small city in the distance. There’s a hint of distant hills, and even more distant mountains. A train scurries north not a half hour since the last one did the same. Things must have gotten blocked up down in the city, I think. Behind me is a small hillside, fields to the north and forest to the south. I’m facing east, of course, towards Columbia and Dutchess counties, and Connecticut and Massachusetts, along with the rest of New England.

ANALYSIS OF STREAM RUNOFF TRENDS IN THE BLUE RIDGE AND PIEDMONT OF SOUTHEASTERN UNITED STATES by USHA KHAREL Under the Direction of Seth Rose ABSTRACT The purpose of the study was to examine the temporal trends of three monthly variables: stream runoff, rainfall and air temperature and to find out if any correlation exists between rainfall and stream runoff in the Blue Ridge and Piedmont provinces of the southeast United States. Trend significance was determined using the non-parametric Mann-Kendall test on a monthly and annual basis. GIS analysis was used to find and integrate the urban and non-urban stream gauging, rainfall and temperature stations in the study area. The Mann-Kendall test showed a statistically insignificant temporal trend for all three variables. The correlation of 0.4 was observed for runoff and rainfall, which showed that these two parameters are moderately correlated.

  • The Origins of Camp Louise in the Settlement House Movement of Baltimore’S Jewish Community
    1 “Fresh Air and Cheer”: The Origins of Camp Louise in the Settlement House Movement of Baltimore’s Jewish Community by Barry Kessler One day in 1921, three Baltimoreans set out to visit a potential site for a summer retreat that would serve the city’s immigrant Jewish women. Ida Sharogrodsky, a social worker, and Lillie Straus, a philanthropist, had pleaded with Lillie’s husband, Aaron, one of Baltimore’s wealthiest merchants, to consider purchasing an old hotel in the Catoctin Mountains which they envisioned as an extension of the social service work they were doing in East Baltimore. Midway on the seventy‐mile trip, Aaron Straus seized on the pretext of a storm to turn back, but the ladies were undeterred, and once they arrived, the enchanting view of forested hills and fertile valleys overcame his reluctance. 1 The story of the three founders’ trip has served as the origin myth of Camp Louise, which matured from a vacation spot for working women to a traditional Jewish girls’ summer camp and is still operating almost a hundred years later. It’s a charming tale, retold over generations by camp alumnae and counselors, staff and community leaders. But the actual history of how Camp Louise emerged from Baltimore’s Progressive era efforts to aid, acculturate, and assimilate immigrants is more complex and in many ways more interesting. In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Baltimore faced the twin pressures of industrialization and immigration, which gave rise to enormous challenges as well as critical opportunities for the city, and for its Jewish community in particular.
