(Proceeds for the Benefit of the Children under the care of the Sisters.) STEREOTYPED AND PRINTED AT THE NEW YORK CATHOLIC PROTECTORY, WEST CHESTER, N. Y. 1673. A Entered according to Act of Congress, in the year 1873, by THE INSTITUTION OF MERCY, NEW YORK, In the Office of the Librarian of Congress, at Washington. TO THE SERVICE OF THE POOR, AS IT MAY BE PROMOTED BY THE PROTECTION, EDUCATION, AND TENDER CARE OP THEIR DEFENCELESS CHILDREN AND YOUNG DAUGHTERS, THESE VERSES ARE AFFECTIONATELY INSCRIBED BY THEIR DEVOTED SERVANTS IN OUR lord's LOVE, THE SISTERS OF MERCY. ; TO THE READER. In offering this volume of unpretending verses for cir- culation in the Institutions conducted by Religious, and among Catholics in general, we are actuated by a two- fold motive : the desire of obtaining means to support the poor, dear children under our care; and the hope of eliciting a new interest and a greater zeal in behalf of suffering childhood. No city in the world has done so much within the last ten years for the protection of its children, as New York and the noble work done by the Catholic Protectory, and some other recent Institutions, may be pointed to as proof; yet the Catholic World, for November, 1872, tells us that there are still 40.000 homeless children in this metropolis exposed to every misery, "who tread the paths that lead to moral destruction with such rapidity, that hundreds of them are confirmed thieves or drunkards before they reach the age of twelve years." * Yet every one of these forty thousand children is capable of being trained to Christian modes of life, to usefulness, to piety, and truth. Help us to help them. * Catholic World, Nov. 1872, page 207. ' TO THE READER. Whoever buys a copy of this little book contributes to the great work, and may look for a reward to Him who has said: "Whatsoever you do to the least of these, my little ones, you do it unto Me." What a joy to rescue a young innocent child from the haunts of vice and misery, and bring it up in ways of virtue and industry! Then, why are not the children rescued ? Alas ! for want of means ; for want of money. Every little mouth must be fed, every tiny pair of feet must have shoes, and each one must be decently clothed, and these things cost money ; ever so much money, when you have some hundreds of little mouths to feed, and twice as many pairs of restless little feet to keep covered. We defy fashion, as far as we can, but we admit that the philosophy of clothing is something wonderful. You cannot teach a child to be self-respecting, well- mannered, and ready to work for a living, unless you clothe her properly; nay, you cannot induce her to be earnest in the practice of her religious duties ; whereas, if you take the most wretched and neglected little creature and clean and clothe her, you have done, perhaps, as much to improve her in moral sentiment as in appearance. Our aim, as Sisters of Mercy, is to catch the children before they fall into habits of vice, before they have been corrupted by the influence of evil example : and the chil- dren in our Institution are all of this class. We design to educate them respectably, to teach them useful trades, to train them up in habits of virtue and ; TO THE HEADER. piety; and so to fit them to become blessings to society and models of good example among their friends. Every aid given to enable us to accomplish this task will be highly appreciated, and no doubt amply rewarded, for it is one of the best of all good works ; one of those charities dearest to the Heart of that all-merciful Saviour ' who said : ' Suffer little children to come unto Me, and forbid them not." Ah! but the world forbids them; the world and the flesh and the devil forbid them in a thousand ways, and it is for you, Catholic people, —fathers and mothers of happy home-loved children, to help them to come ; it is for you, young men, young girls, with all life's enjoyments, to brighten each hour of your existence it is for you to reach out your hands to the little sufferers, and help them over the thorny paths their poor young feet are treading. Yes, it is for you, children of the rich, —little boys and girls who never knew a want, —it is for you, numerous, happy band that you are, to help those who have no mother's heart to rest upon, —no father's kindly smile to sweeten the bitterness of their lonely child-lives. Our Lord loves a cheerful giver; if you spare some of your pocket-money to help our little ones to have a better dinner, to be more comfortably clothed, or to have a better bed to sleep in ; if even from the number of cast- off garments and toys grown distasteful to your feasted eyes, you spare a mite to those to whom these things would be like rays of sunlight, —you may be sure, you will enjoy your own comforts with lighter and happier TO THE READER. hearts, while your bright Angel will be ever presenting your gifts before the throne of One whose love will for ever overshadow, and bless, and surround you, both here and hereafter. A word about the verses themselves. Some of them were printed a few years ago in different Catholic Journals; some of them, viz., those peculiarly referring to country and kindred, were composed before their writer entered the Convent, and none of them were expressly written for publication. The book is divided into two parts, of which the second is suited only for children, and school purposes. In days when literature is used so powerfully against the interests of the Church, may not even these poor verses be tolerated as being, at least, wholly and de- votedly Catholic ? Sb. M. A.

  • Zu Ella Fitzgerald Vom 2.12.2019
    Ella Fitzgerald Story auf Radio 700 vom Montag, den 2.12.2019, 18.55 - 21.00 Uhr Autoren: Klaus Huckert/Uwe Lorenz Einleitungsmusik: A Tisket, A Tasket Anmoderation: In der heutigen Sendung des Jazz-Cocktails wollen wir uns mit dem Star des Vocal- Jazz Ella Fitzgerald beschäftigen. Im 20.Jahrhundert prägte keine andere Stimme den Jazz so sehr wie die von Ella. Ihre Beinamen waren „The Queen of Jazz“ oder „The first Lady of Jazz“ bzw. auch „The first Lady of Song“. Zur Eröffnung haben wir bereits ihren ersten Millionen-Hit „A Tisket, A Tasket“ aus dem Jahr 1938 gehört. In der fast sechzig Jahren währenden Welt-Karriere nahm die Sängerin mehrere hundert Platten auf, erhielt 14 Grammys und eine Vielzahl an Ehrungen. Schnelle Tempi im Bebop-Gesang, melancholischer Grundton bei Balladen, mitreißender Groove bei Swing-Nummern und hochinteressante Scat-Einlagen kennzeichneten ihren Stil. Basis ihres Könnens war eine Genauigkeit in der Intonation und glasklare Töne, wie man sie heute selten findet. Ihr Repertoire umfasste den Swing, Bebop, Blues, Bossa Nova und Gospel. Musik aus dem genannten Repertoire (Swing, Bebop, Blues, Bossa Nova und Gospel) z.B. „Please don’t talk about it when I am gone“ (Swing“) CD „Count Basie/Ella Fitzgerald: The perfect Match“, „One note Samba“ (CD „Ella & Pass …Again“) Track 14, „St. Louis Blues“ (CD „Ella & Basie The Perfect Match Track 10), „Mack the Knife“ (Swing) (CD Ella in Berlin, (10er Pack REEL TO REEL) …….. Die Anfangsjahre von Ella Fitzgerald (Take 1) Ella Jane Fitzgerald – geboren 1917 in Newport News/Virginia, verstorben 1996 in Beverly Hills/Kalifornien -, hatte eine relativ schwierige Kindheit.

  • Ella Fitzgerald from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Ella Fitzgerald From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Background information Birth name Ella Jane Fitzgerald Born April 25, 1917 Newport News, Virginia, United States Died June 15, 1996 (aged 79) Beverly Hills, California, United States Genres Swing, bebop, traditional pop, vocal jazz Occupation(s) Singer, actress Instruments Vocals Years active 1934–1993 Labels Capitol, Decca, Pablo, Reprise, Verve, Brunswick, HMV Website ellafitzgerald.com Ella Jane Fitzgerald (April 25, 1917 – June 15, 1996) was an American jazz singer often referred to as the First Lady of Song, Queen of Jazz, and Lady Ella. She was noted for her purity of tone, impeccable diction, phrasing and intonation, and a "horn-like" improvisational ability, particularly in her scat singing. After tumultuous teenage years, Fitzgerald found stability in musical success with performances on many stages in the Harlem area, including her rendition of the nursery rhyme "A-Tisket, A-Tasket" that helped boost her to fame. In 1942, Fitzgerald left the amateur performances behind, signed a deal with Decca Records, and started her solo career by redefining the art of scat singing. It was not until her manager, Norman Granz, built Verve Records based on her vocal abilities that she recorded some of her more widely noted works. Under this label, Fitzgerald focused more on singing than scatting, providing perhaps her most career-defining works in her interpretation of the Great American Songbook. While Fitzgerald appeared in movies and as guests on popular television shows in the second half of the twentieth century, her musical collaborations with Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, and Bill Kenny and the Ink Spots were some of her most notable acts outside of her solo career.

Mapping plausible pathways into alternative futures Niclas Meyer LEQS Paper No. 136/2018 August 2018 Editorial Board Dr Bob Hancke Dr Jonathan White Dr Sonja Avlijas Dr Auke Willems Mr Hjalte Lokdam All views expressed in this paper are those of the author and do not necessarily represent the views of the editors or the LSE. © Niclas Meyer EU break-up? Mapping plausible pathways into alternative futures Niclas Meyer * Abstract Following Brexit, the rise of populist Eurosceptics across the EU, Central Eastern Europe's flirtation with 'illiberal democracy' and the sovereign debt crisis, which essentially still remains unresolved ten years after it started, even some of the EU’s most enthusiastic supporters are today wondering whether the EU could actually break apart. In the paper, I propose the scenario-planning method to address this question and to think about the future of the EU in a structured way. While the method is already well established in the study of socio-technical systems, the paper tests its transferability to the political economy of the EU. Along two drivers, the material struggle to tame globalization and the ideational struggle to fill the void that is resulting from the deconstruction of neoliberalism, the paper maps four plausible pathways into alternative futures. I conclude with a discussion of the potential of scenario-planning to improve the transfer of knowledge from academia into practice. Keywords: EU, future, neoliberalism, populism, inequality * Fraunhofer Institute for Systems and Innovation Research ISI Email: [email protected] EU break-up? Table of Contents 1.

    Pinnacle Sequoyah High School Literary Magazine 2020 through 2021 Cover Art by Briana Redner 1 My dear reader, Thank you for picking up this magazine. This project is the culmination of this class's best pieces. Hours were spent on these creations, these extensions of self, and for you to open this magazine and read this message, means so much to us. So go on, and enjoy! --Dominic Lattanzio, Co-Chief Editor This magazine is the result of long, caffeine-filled nights filled with swimming words and splitting headaches. The pieces it contains are the results of the inner emotions of a classroom of writers. Personally, Lit Mag has been a place of growth, a sanctuary, an outlet from the onslaught of the outside world. Looking back on old pieces of mine not only shows me how immensely my writing has grown; it shows me how I have grown. I want to thank Dr. Murphy and this class for both these areas of growth, for offering the timid fourteen-year-old I once was an outlet. So, reader, as you flip through our magazine, be aware that each piece contains a piece of its author. Read them, listen to them, and you will hear each author’s story.
