Hall 21-C 1-C Passage A Grade 6 The Ocean’s Cleaning Stations by Sandy Fox The green moray eel slithers from its hole in the coral and swims to a certain rock. There it lies, unmoving, with its tooth-filled mouth wide open. Most fish flee from this fierce predator. But a bright-striped goby fish swims boldly into the moray’s mouth. The eel stays motionless until the fish swims back out. What happened? Why didn’t the fierce moray eat the little goby? The moray came to an underwater cleaning station. Here certain species of small fish and shrimp clean the parasites off larger host fish. All fish have parasites, tiny ani­ mals that feed on their blood or skin. If parasites aren’t removed, fish can sicken and die. Several times, scientists have removed all the cleaners in an area and discovered that, after a few days, the fish population diminishes. And after two weeks, most of the fish left alive are covered with sores and fungus—and in bad need of a cleaning. Cleaners and host fish have a relationship called symbiosis, where each animal both gives and receives help from the other. A host fish gets its parasites removed, while a cleaner gets its food delivered. But, normally, small fish and shrimp are food for big fish. How does the goby know when it will be eaten and when it can eat? Host fish signal their need for cleaning with a set of elaborate movements. Although each species moves differently, all fish within a species move the same way. Bonnet- mouths and parrotfish, for example, approach a cleaner and then stop swimming. They hang in the water with either their heads or their tails straight up. The mouths open and gills spread. Goatfish (they have a “beard” like a goat’s) approach a cleaner and hang motionless. Some even change color to make their parasites show up better. By hanging upside down, a fish makes itself more vulnerable to predators. Some scientists think that this signals to cleaners that they have nothing to fear. It’s like laying down your weapon. Several kinds of shrimp, small gobies, and wrasses are cleaners. Some angelfish and hogfish are cleaners in the juvenile stage of their lives. Most of these have bold stripes on their bodies. The stripes of the juvenile cleaners disappear as the fish mature and stop cleaning. 2C Passage A Grade 6 Cleaning shrimp skitter across a host fish’s body, feasting on the crustaceans cling­ ing to its sides. Shrimp and cleaner fish will even swim into the host’s mouth, cleaning teeth and gullet like a tidy housekeeper. Cleanings can take from several seconds to two or three minutes. During this time both cleaner and fish are in danger from other animals. If either fish fears for its life, it immediately ends the cleaning ritual. If the host fish senses danger, it gives a little shudder. Then the cleaner has a chance to escape before the host fish swims away. Wrasses and other small cleaners move away more slowly, somehow knowing that they’re under a truce until they reach shelter. Small hosts are jumpy, leaving the cleaning station at the first sign of danger. Larger morays or groupers stay longer, even allowing divers to come quite close before backing away. Many ocean animals mimic or act like other animals. Aspidontus rhinorhynchus, the false cleaner fish, looks very much like a wrasse—stripes and all. But the false cleaner doesn’t clean other fish, it eats them. It hangs around the cleaning station, acting like a cleaner, even swimming in the jerky motion of a true wrasse. The host fish arrives and takes its position. Then the false cleaner boldly swims up and bites a piece off the host’s tongue or scales. By the time the surprised host fish responds, the false cleaner has fled with its meal. The only obvious difference between real and false cleaners is that the impostors’ mouths are on the lower part of their heads. Some host fish spot this difference and swim away from the cleaning station. Wise old ones open their mouths wide—and swallow the fake. But in undersea cleaning stations, most large and small fish cooperate. They call a truce, and their symbiosis improves the health and prolongs the lives of both host fish and cleaners.

She had been born sixty-three years earlier on a Yankton Sioux Reservation in South Dakota and given the Native American name Anpetu Waste, or Beautiful Day. Her father, Black Lodge, was part French and part Sioux. He also became one of the first Dakota Episcopal priests. Her mother, Mary, was Sioux and Irish, a granddaughter of the famous painter Thomas Sully. Ella was raised in a large and loving family in the traditional Sioux manner. She spoke Sioux before she spoke English. Her parents felt it was important for her to get a good education, and so she went away to boarding school and then on to college. It was at Columbia Teachers College that Ella met the person who would give purpose to her life. Franz Boas was the leader of a group of anthropologists studying Native American cultures. When he discovered Ella could speak Sioux, Dr. Boas asked her to trans- late a huge collection of stories by George Bushotter, a Sioux whose unpublished works had been left to the Smithsonian Institution. Ella agreed, and Dr. Boas paid her eighteen dollars a month to translate the texts while she was at school. Ella found she loved the work. After she graduated, Dr. Boas asked Ella if she would “study . the habits of action and thought . among the Dakota children and among adults. You will have to know all the details of everyday life. .” So Ella began her work as an ethnographer, or one who studies a people’s culture. She traveled to the Sioux reservations, collecting information on language, family and tribal structure, religious ceremonies, and the role of women. The old people were delighted when they found she could speak their native tongue, and they freely gave her their biographies, their myths, and their humorous stories. In the process, Ella assembled the largest body of information on any Plains Indian tribe. She wrote a Sioux-English dictionary, scholarly texts, collections of myths, and Speaking of Indians, a book to help people understand the Native American culture. She also lectured and performed dances for the YMCA and other organizations. Through it all, she considered “Father Franz,” as she called Boas, to be her inspiration. She wrote to him on his eighty-first birthday, saying, “I would not trade the privilege of having known you, for anything I can think of.” 1Dakota: another word for Sioux 4C Passage B Grade 6 Still, the science of ethnography that he taught her had to be objective and impersonal. Ella felt “one of the reasons for the lagging advance­ ment of the Dakotas has been that those who came out among them to teach and preach, went on the assumption that the Dakotas had nothing, no rules of life, no social organization, no ideals.” Ella wanted to show the larger culture that the Sioux were really feeling and caring human beings, with a deeply rooted culture of their own. The Dakotas were a people who put one another ahead of possessions. As Ella wrote, “The ultimate aim of Dakota life was quite simple: . One must be a good relative. Every other consideration was secondary—property, personal ambition, glory, good times, life itself.” Someone who did not care for the others in the tribe would no longer be considered Sioux or even human. In 1942 Ella Cara Deloria sat down to write the novel Waterlily. Based on research, Ella created the character Waterlily and followed her life from birth, through her childhood surrounded by lov­ ing relatives, and into adulthood and the birth of her own child. After careful writing and rewriting, Waterlily was finally finished in 1947, but no pub­ lisher would take it. The editors told her not enough readers would be interested. Ella sadly put Waterlily away with her other papers. She went back to doing research, lecturing, and caring for friends and family. As a true Sioux, Aunt Ella (as she now was called) always put others first. Sometimes that meant postponing an important research project to care for her father when he was ill, or helping her sister with her children.

  • Delaware: Allan Mclane
    Delaware: Allan McLane Born in Philadelphia, PA on August 8, 1746, Allan McLane was one of George Washington’s boldest soldiers, but most reluctant U.S. marshals. By the time the American Revolution began, McLane had moved to Delaware, where he had a trading business, and immediately enlisted as a lieutenant in Caesar Rodney's Delaware Regiment. McLane’s company numbered about one hundred men, and included some Oneida Indian scouts. So devoted was he to his troops, that McLane used much of his inherited fortune for their pay and equipment. McLane participated in Washington’s disastrous New York Campaign of 1776.109 During this military campaign and the Battle of Princeton in January 1777, McLane earned a promotion to captain and began a legendary career as a cavalryman and spy.110 McLane utilized different disguises to infiltrate British camps and gather vital information that contributed to the success of American forces at the battles of Monmouth Courthouse (June 28, 1778) and Stoney Point (July 16, 1779).111 On another occasion, a wounded McLane personally killed two British soldiers and escaped capture, despite being abandoned by his three companions. Collectively, McLane’s courage and daring personality helped him earn the rank of colonel by the end of the war in 1783.112 Portrait of Allan McLane.

  • Thomas Mifflin-Revolutionary Patriot*
    THOMAS MIFFLIN-REVOLUTIONARY PATRIOT* By KENNETH R. ROSSMAN THERE is no biography of Thomas Mifflin, and usually his- 1torians angrily dismiss him as a plotter against Washington in the notorious "Conway Cabal."' Although only a secondary figure in a period studded with great men, he nevertheless does not de- serve this neglect. Provincial and state assemblyman, ardent patriot, delegate to the Continental Congress and once its president, quarter- master-general and major-general in the Continental Army, Board of War Commissioner, member of the Federal Convention, chair- man of the state constitutional convention, president of the Supreme Executive Council, three-times governor of Pennsylvania-these bespeak eloquently his influence and prominence in local and conti- nental affairs. Several factors help to explain Miffin's failure to receive biographical treatment. The materials for a full-length portrait are still wanting, especially private and personal letters. His sup- posed complicity in the Conway Cabal, as well as bitter contro- versy over his work as quartermaster-general, deterred other biographers who might have undertaken the task. This essay, a study of an early portion of his career, may in part fill the gap. Thomas Mifflin, the oldest son of John Mifflin and Elizabeth Bagnell, was born in Philadelphia, January 10, 1744.2 Descendant of an old Quaker family of prominence and wealth in this city, he was assured a good start in life. His father was a prosperous mer- chant, and very active in public affairs. *Before it was revised and completely documented, this article appeared originally in Abstracts in History, V, 1939-1943 (Iowa City, 1943).

  • Caesar Rodney's Services and During the American Revolution
    E207 .R6 .F73 Delaware's hero for all times and all seasons by William P. Frank I © Copyright, 1975, by the Delaware American Revolution Bicentennial Commission Design by James A. Collins B IVES hero bv William P. Frank Illustrations by A. N. Wyeth Delaware American Revolution Bicentennial. Commission Wilmington, Delaware 1975 This booklet is dedicated to The Honorable Sherman W. Tribbitt, Governor of the Delaware, in recognition of his own dedication to bringing proper recognition of Caesar Rodney's services and during the American Revolution. Thomas McKean, Caesar Rodney, and George Read, Deirnt·are 's signers of the Declaration of Independence. Caesar Rodney rides through American history as the patron saint of his native state, Delaware's principal hero of the American Revolutionary War. In his brief 55-year life he held more public offices than any other Delawarean before or since. He was a soldier, a judge, a delegate to the American Continental Congress, speaker of the Delaware Assembly, a chief executive of Delaware, a justice of the state's Supreme Court, and held many other offices of public trust. Unlike Thomas McKean, George Read, and John Dickinson, with whom he served in Congress, Rodney was not a scholar. McKean and Dickinson, because they were more learned, were better known beyond Delaware's boundaries than was Rodney. But it is Rodney's name, not McKean's, Dickinson's nor Read's that is familiar to Americans today. The equestrian statue in Wilmington, Delaware, of Rodney riding to Philadelphia to cast Delaware's deciding vote for the Declaration of Independence in July, 1776, has been adopted by scores of writers, artists, playwrights, poets and businesses as the symbol of Delaware's participation in the American Revolution and the Declaration.

  • Focusing on Firsts: Delaware Doctor Was First U.S
    Focusing on Firsts: Delaware Doctor Was First U.S. Army Surgeon General By Stacey Inglis elawareans have become accustomed to being first. We have bragging rights. Caesar Rodney made certain of D that when he rode through the night, signed his name and established Delaware as the First State. In fact, for five or so celebratory days, Delaware basked in the glory of being the only state. Pennsylvania was second, and New Jersey third, to ratify and claim statehood. Since the time of ratification and setting the standard of firsts, Delaware has had a series of them. Delaware’s first permanent doctor was Tyman Stidham, a Swede who came over with Governor Risingh, landing at Fort Casimir (New Castle) on May 21, 1654.1 On June 21, 1768 medical honors were conferred for the first time in America. Ten gentlemen received their Bachelor of Medicine degrees on this occasion and three of the men were from (what would become) Delaware. Not even a country yet, or a state for that matter, and we had three doctors in the first graduating class in the first medical school; John Archer of New Castle, James Tilton of Kent County and Nicholas Way of Wilmington.2 Original bronze sculpture of James Tilton, M.D. One of those three men went on to achieve a lion’s share of firsts. by sculptress Olga Nielsen in 2017. It’s a name familiar to the medical community in the First State: Dr. James Tilton. Tilton was a founder and first President of the Medical Society of Delaware, incorporated in 1789.3 In a letter to George Washington (you know, the first President of the recently elected the first President of the Medical Society of Delaware:4 established United States) dated February 15, 1787, Tilton shared “…..contrary to my opinion & inclination, the state society have the news with his friend, announcing to him that he had been hitherto continued to elect me their President.” Tilton was born on a farm in Duck Creek in Kent County, Delaware, which at the time was still one of the three lower counties of Pennsylvania.

Only New Castle County, heavily dominated by Presbyterians, could be relied upon to support the principles of independence~both Kent and Sussex Counties would have preferred to remain aloof from the conflict For the American Revolution to succeed in Delaware, at least two of Delaware's three counties had to accept the principles ofindependence, which meant that leaders from the counties ofeither Kent or Sussex had to join with their brethren in New Castle.

  • The Signers of the Declaration of Independence
    The Declaration of Independence: About the Signers (Continued) The Signers of the Declaration of Independence All of the colonies were represented in Philadelphia to consider the delicate case for independence and to change the course of the war. In all, there were fifty-six representatives from the thirteen colonies. Fourteen represented the New England Colonies, twenty-one represented the Middle Colonies and twenty-one represented the South- ern Colonies. The largest number (9) came from Pennsylvania. Most of the signers were American born although eight were foreign born. The ages of the signers ranged from 26 (Edward Rutledge) to 70 (Benjamin Franklin), but the majority of the signers were in their thirties or forties. More than half of the signers were lawyers and the others were planters, merchants and shippers. Together they mutually pledged “to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.” They were mostly men of means who had much to lose if the war was lost. None of the sign- ers died at the hands of the British, and one-third served as militia officers during the war. Four of the signers were taken captive during the war and nearly all of them were poorer at the end of the war than at the beginning. No matter what each of these men did after July 1776, the actual signing of the Declaration of Independence which began on August 2 ensured them instant immortality. The following gives a bit of information about each signer AFTER the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Connecticut Samuel Huntington (1731-1796)—Samuel Huntington was a self-made man who distinguished himself in government on the state and national levels.
