In June, 1911, President Schurman, having been unable to avail himself of the leave of absence granted for a specific time, was granted a year’s leave of absence to be taken at such time or times as might be agreed upon by him and the Executive Committee. The period of this leave of absence was on the 22d of August, 1912, fixed from September, 1912, to September, 1913. President Schur­ man having been appointed by President Taft, Minister to Greece, sailed from New York on September 5th for his post at Athens. The duties of the president of the University until the appointment of an acting president by the full Board were assigned to T. F. Crane, Emeritus Professor of the Romance Languages. At a meeting of the full Board held at Ithaca, November 7th, 19x2, Professor Crane was elected acting president of the University from September 1st, 1912, for the period of the leave of absence granted to President Schurman or until the return of President Schurman if he returned before its expiration, and during said term the duties and powers of the president of the University were assigned to the acting presi­ dent. The Acting President of the University, therefore, has the honor to submit to the Board of Trustees the following Report for the year 1912-13. The Report covers the period from September, 1912, to September, 1913. It would be manifestly improper for one filling a temporary posi­ tion to have any policy of his own or to make any recommendations of a permanent nature which might embarrass the President of the University. The Acting President has, therefore, very carefully TRUSTEES AND FACULTIES confined his activity to the necessary management of the University. This report will therefore be in the nature of an historical resume of the progress of the University during the year 1912-13. TRUSTEES AND FACULTIES The terms of office of Alumni Trustees, Judge Albert H. Sewell and Judge Harry L. Taylor expired in June. To fill these vacancies the alumni elected Mr. Franklin Matthews, A.B. ’83, and Judge Cuthbert W. Pound, Professor of Law in Cornell University from 1895 to 1904. At the meeting of the Board in November a letter was presented from Mr. Emerson McMillin, suggesting that his resignation presented to the Board on October 21st, 1912, be acted upon, and on motion his resignation was accepted and the Secretary instructed to convey to Mr. McMillin the sincere regret of the Trustees at losing his services on the Board, which he had served in such an agreeable and helpful manner. The vacancy caused by the resignation of Mr. McMillin was filled by the election of Mr. Charles E. Treman. At the meeting of the Board in June, Messrs. Henry H. Westinghouse, Roger B. Williams, and Charles E. Treman were re­ elected trustees for a term of five years to succeed themselves. On February 14th, 1913, General Stewart Lyndon Woodford died at his residence in New York City. The Acting President of the University acted as pall-bearer at the funeral and the Trustees residing in and near New York City attended as representatives of the University. Mr. Woodford had been a trustee of the University for forty-six years and was most punctilious in the discharge of his duties and as long as health and presence in the country permitted he was active in the councils of the University. His loss from the membership of the Board will be deplored not only for his adminis­ trative and legal wisdom, but also for his singularly amiable and engaging disposition. His death removes another of the few who were closely connected with Mr. Ezra Cornell in the inception and early development of the University and leaves a gap in the Board which cannot be filled. As an additional token of respect to his memory the Trustees voted to take no action at present in regard to filling the vacancy in the Board caused by his death. Professor Charles Babcock, professor of Architecture and head of the Department from 1871 to 1896, and Dean of the Faculty and Director of the College of Architecture from 1896 to 1897, and since that time Professor of Architecture, Emeritus, died at his residence TRUSTEES AND FACULTIES 7 on the campus, August 27th, 1913, in the eighty-fifth year of his age. He was the first professor in the Department founded in 1871, and he saw it grow into the College of Architecture, and the number of students increase from 2 to 144. He trained a great number of architects who have won fame for their University and whose affec­ tion for their teacher has been profound. His professional skill and advice have been of great value to the University and Sage College, Sage Chapel, and Lincoln and Franklin Halls were designed by him. The Memorial Chapel of Sage Chapel, where lie the founders and benefactors of the University is a beautiful monument of his architectural skill and artistic taste. He was not only an accomplished and devoted teacher, but his genial charac­ ter and noble personal qualities made him a power for good in the academic community and in the city. He was a loyal servant of the University for over forty years and has left a name and repu­ tation which will ever prove an incentive and example to future generations of professors and students. On the 14th of June Director L. H. Bailey presented his

  • The Argument of the Broken Pane', Suffragette Consumerism And
    1 TITLE PAGE ‘The Argument of the Broken Pane’, Suffragette Consumerism and Newspapers by Jane Chapman, Professor of Communications, Lincoln University School of Journalism, Campus Way, Lincoln LN6 7TS, tel. 01522 886963, email: [email protected] 2 Abstract Within the cutthroat world of newspapers advertising the newspapers of Britain’s Women’s Social and Political Union (WSPU) Votes for Women and The Suffragette managed to achieve a balance that has often proved to be an impossible challenge for social movement press – namely the maintenance of a highly political stance whilst simultaneously exploiting the market system with advertising and merchandising. When the militant papers advocated window smashing of West End stores in 1912 - 13, the companies who were the target still took advertisements. Why? What was the relationship between news values, militant violence, and advertising income? ‘Do-it-yourself’ journalism operated within a context of ethical consumerism and promotionally orientated militancy. This resulted in newspaper connections between politics, commerce and a distinct market profile, evident in the customization of advertising, retailer dialogue with militants, and longer-term loyalty – symptomatic of a wider trend towards newspaper commercialism during this period. Keywords: suffragettes, Votes for Women, The Suffragette, window smashing, advertisers, ethical consumerism, WSPU. Main text Advertisers ‘judge the character of the reader by the character of the periodical’ (George French, Advertising: the Social and Economic Problem, 1915) ‘The argument of the broken window pane is the most valuable argument in modern politics’ (Emmeline Pankhurst, Votes for Women, 23 Feb.1912). Introduction and contexts One of the great achievements of the many and various activist women’s groups in Britain was their ability – despite, or more likely because of the movement’s diversity – to maintain a high, if fluctuating, public profile for a sustained period in history.

  • The Twelfth Decade
    1911-1920 The Twelfth Decade Overview The twelfth decade was one of several significant developments and events. After 82 years as a Village, Batavia became a City. Batavia came to have its first City Hall. The police department for the first time had its own building. Also for the first time, there were full-time paid firemen. The community finally had a sewer system and sewage treatment plant. The municipal water system was upgraded and a water filtration plant added. And, as was the case with other cities across the Country, Batavia felt the impact of World War I. Batavia’s population continued to grow rapidly. The number of residents reached 13,541 in 1920 (“Genesee County Information,” Richmond Memorial Library, online, accessed 3 January 2014). This was an increase of 1,928 individuals since 1910. In the view of the author, this decade may be regarded as Batavia’s “golden age.” Main Street still had most of its mansions. A large number of the major manufacturing concerns that defined Batavia were in place. The housing in the City was still mainly single-family homes. Retail activity was almost entirely in a centralized “downtown.” A trolley ran the length of Main Street and the Tonawanda Creek was a major recreational attraction that drew crowds on summer weekends. 1: Infrastructure As indicated in the last chapter, work on constructing sewers began in December of 1909. The layout resulted in all of the sewage being conveyed to a central station at the Municipal Building at 3 West Main Street. As of July in 1911, the work on the sewers was well along.

  • The Buffalo Soldiers in Vermont, 1909–1913
    The Buffalo Soldiers in Vermont, 1909–1913 The arrival of the Tenth Cavalry sent Burlington into demographic shock. Almost overnight the small city acquired a substantial black community, a situation that clearly dismayed many residents. By David Work n July 1909, the Tenth United States Cavalry Regiment, one of four regular army black regiments collectively known as the Buffalo ISoldiers, arrived in Burlington, Vermont, to begin a four-year tour of duty at Fort Ethan Allen in neighboring Colchester. Their arrival alarmed the almost exclusively white population. Many people feared the presence of sizable numbers of African American soldiers in their community and a bitter debate ensued over whether the city should adopt Jim Crow facilities. For the next four years, the Tenth Cavalry would encounter similar reactions as it traveled throughout the north- east and as far south as Winchester, Virginia. Wherever they went, the black soldiers faced fear and suspicion and had to demonstrate good behavior to win the acceptance of the white population. Created in 1866, the Tenth Cavalry achieved its greatest fame in the late nineteenth century on the western frontier and then served with distinction during the Spanish-American War. In that conflict, the regi- ment charged up San Juan Hill with Theodore Roosevelt’s Rough Riders and won public renown as the “fighting Tenth Cavalry.” In the early twentieth century, the Tenth fought in the Philippine War, served in .....................

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’.
