O’Harra Collection, Glass Lantern Slides and Glass Plate Negatives page 1 Title C.C. O’Harra Collection: Glass Lantern Slides and Glass Plate Negatives Extent 1509 items: 1227 glass lantern slides, 282 glass plate negatives; 1358 unique images Scope and Content The C.C. O’Harra Collection consists of papers, publications, photographs, maps, and files of South Dakota School of Mines president and professor Cleophus Cisney O’Harra. The Devereaux Library’s glass lantern, sometimes referred to as magic lantern, collection consists of over 1200—3 ¼“ x 4” numbered slides and vary in subject matter from geology to meteorology to campus history and include photographs, drawings and maps of international, regional and historical interest. The glass plate negatives consist of 282 plates. The plates are of two size formats—4” x 5” and 5” x 7”, and have an unprotected photo emulsion on the back side. The purpose of the items was primarily instructional. They were produced either from a stationary camera, as shown in the photo or “on site” from a more portable unit. Glass plates were the first step in the reproduction process and, as is evidenced by the notations in the margins of many of the originals, were later submitted to a commercial photo processor to be made into glass slides Provenance The glass lantern slides and glass plate negatives have been a part of the university‘s holdings for several decades.

The company absorbed smaller utilities. It offered power and transmission services to other areas in collaboration with public power agencies and rural electric cooperatives. But tensions with the rural cooperatives were building over territories and customers.

    Interesting Things to Do in South Dakota

    Interesting Things to Do In South Dakota A) Western South Dakota: 1) Black Hills: Visit the awe-inspiring Mount Rushmore or view the magnificent carving of Crazy Horse. Take a trip through Custer State Park, in the heart of the Black Hills (where the buffalo roam). Or experience Sturgis, where motorcycles rule during August, time of the world famous Sturgis motorcycle rally. Other attractions may include a drive through Needles Highway, a visit to the natural cave wonders like Wind Cave (where the largest group of buffalo roam free), Jewel Cave (the third largest cave in the world), or Rushmore Cave, or a trip to Bear Country, an intriguing wildlife park getaway. Approximately 380 miles from Beresford. 2) Wall Drug: On your way to the west, no one can resist stopping at Wall Drug, one of the most famous stops in the U.S. This drug store was founded in 1931 and was made famous by offering free ice water to travelers. Today it typically serves 20,000 guests per day and has restaurants, gift shops, clothing stores and more. If you are looking for that perfect souvenir, you can probably find it here! Approximately 325 miles from Beresford. 3) Badlands: Drive through the Badlands National Park Scenic Byway for amazing views of rock formations and learn of the gangsters who hid out here – many of which got lost in the maze of rock and never made it out. The region of savage erosion, where 35 million years of wind and water have created 244,000 acres of strange and beautiful spires, buttes, and canyons.

    The Ridgeline and the Creek Landscape and Memory in Rapid City Executive Summary For millennia, the natural resources and allure of the Black Hills have drawn people to the region to hunt, explore, pray, recreate, and live in and around what is now Rapid City. The community sits where the open prairie meets rocky hills and thick forests. For generations, area residents have shaped their lives, in terms of both work and play, in response to the opportunities and limitations presented by these surroundings. High ridges on Skyline Drive and Cowboy Hill, flowing waters in Rapid Creek and Canyon Lake, and pine forests and grasslands fill the city limits. Rapid City’s scenery attracts visitors and transplants to the area. Although connections to place are articulated through different cultural and spiritual lenses, many residents feel a strong connection to the landscapes, waterscapes, and skyscapes in and around Rapid City. The settlement of Rapid City was part of the imposition of Euro-American land ethics onto the Northern Plains. Throughout Rapid City’s history, as in much of the American West, competition for land and natural resources has fueled tensions over public and private management, industry and development, and preservation and conservation. These tensions have shaped and reshaped the landscape even as natural forces have altered the environment through slow processes like erosion or climate change, as well as sudden disasters like floods, fires, and blizzards. The landscape that endures, reflected in public parks and open spaces, has played a critical part in building and sustaining community identity and character. In many cases, it has been preserved by private citizens and public policymakers at the behest of their constituents.
