Harris TAMERLANE’S TOMB AT SAMARKAND Vol. Ill JANUARY, 1926 No. 1 FEDERAL-AMERICAN FINANCE BY JOHN POOLE Who s Who in Washington in 1935 n HAT’S only ten years from now—not long, for the time passes swiftly by. The then leaders—the outstanding success¬ ful men of 1935—are but in the making today. Who will these men be? They are the younger men of today who are getting ready for tomorrow’s opportunities. They are setting up a money future—saving out of today’s earnings—build¬ ing capital of their own. Men who show selfmastery— men who know how to use and take care of their own money—have no trouble in borrowing additional funds from their banker when they need bank assistance to go into business. Your boy has a chance, but he needs help and encouragement from you now. Take a banker’s advice and give all your children bank accounts. Who knows but what your boy will be one of Washington’s leaders?

The Great Tri-State Tornado of 1925 Lucy Travis Junior Division
1 The Great Tri-State Tornado of 1925 Lucy Travis Junior Division Historical Paper Paper Length: 1,722 words 2 In 1925 meteorology was in its infancy. Forecasts were designed to comfort citizens and predict the general weather of rain, snow, or sun. The military controlled all weather reports and banned certain words like “cyclone,” “hurricane,” and “tornado” which were said to bring unnecessary fear (Sean Morris). When the Tri-State Tornado hit it was unexpected by residents throughout Missouri, Illinois, and Indiana. On its 219 mile trek it claimed the lives of 695 people and injured hundreds more (Tri-State Tornado). Air Force weather officers Captain Robert Miller and Major Ernest Fawbush were then assigned to study the event and convinced the military to rethink policies regarding permitted language. As a result, the change saved many lives in tornados to come (John Galvin). The Tri-State Tornado was a tragic event for hundreds of families in its destructive path and served as the triumphant catalyst for advancements in technology and storm tracking which resulted in hundreds of thousands of lives being saved over the past ninety years. In 1914 there were only 200 weather observers across the United States sending weather data by telegraph twice a day. Meteorologists in Washington DC processed the information and distributed it to communities around the country (Ronan Pioneer). At the time public broadcasting was very limited. There was no quick way to spread information across the countryside. At most, some households had radios, and television had not been invented. People would listen to the forecast at stores or on neighbor’s radios. -

P8.15 Simulations of the Supercell Outbreak of 18 March 1925
P8.15 SIMULATIONS OF THE SUPERCELL OUTBREAK OF 18 MARCH 1925 Melissa E. Becker, Matthew S. Gilmore*, Jason Naylor, Justin. K. Weber Department of Atmospheric Sciences, University of North Dakota, Grand Forks, ND Robert A. Maddox, Tucson, AZ Gilbert P. Compo, Jeffrey S. Whitaker, and Thomas M. Hamill NOAA Earth System Research Laboratory and Univ. of Colorado CIRES Climate Diagnostics Center, Boulder, CO 1. INTRODUCTION* On 18 March 1925, the "Tri-State Tornado" left a path of nearly complete destruction across portions of Missouri, Illinois, and Indiana and killed almost 700 people - the deadliest tornado in U.S. history (Changnon and Semonin 1966). The Weather Research and Forecasting Model (WRF) is being used to conduct storm-scale simulations of this event in an effort to understand the environmental conditions and environmental changes that led to the long-track tornadic supercell thunderstorm and overall severe weather outbreak (Fig. 1). 2. EVENT OVERVIEW* The Tri-State Tornado was first reported shortly after 1 PM CST north of Ellington, MO (Fig. 2). Around 2 PM, the town of Biehle, MO was struck before the storm crossed the Mississippi River and destroyed the town of Gorham, IL a half hour later. Four other towns in southern Illinois were hit by the tornado within the Fig. 1. Summary of severe weather reports from 18 March hour. By 3 PM, the storm had crossed into Indiana, 1925 (from Maddox et al. 2011) within the outbreak region continuing to destroy towns and farms in its path before (outlined in red). Several tornadoes (tracks shown), finally lifting around 3:30 PM (Changnon and Semonin thunderstorms (“ ” symbols), and widespread hail (“H” symbols) 1966).
