Social Life and Social Services in Indianapolis Networks During the Gilded Age and Progressive Era KATHERINE BADERTSCHER ABSTRACT: In late nineteenth-century Indianapolis, a group of citizens, united by social networks, dominated the gov- ernance and management of the city’s social services for several decades. The tight-knit network of men and women worked together at the center of social and philanthropic life. Since its inception in 1879, the Charity Organization Society of Indianapolis (COS) wielded virtual control over social welfare—making it one of the most progressive and powerful philanthropic organizations in the country. An influ- ential coterie of men and women governed, donated to, and volunteered for the COS and many of its sub-agencies. Then, as now, social networks are as essential for us to understand as social entrepreneurs and charismatic leaders.

Everything we do is based on our mission as Indiana’s Storyteller and our commitment to collecting, preserving, interpreting and sharing our state’s history. We serve as an important resource for educators, students and researchers – professional and personal. We strive to make Indiana’s history relevant to the rest of the country’s history and to the world today. Connecting people to the past is our most important purpose, and we are able to do it in interesting ways thanks to your support and the support of our Board of Trustees and community advisors. Our particularly powerful You Are There about Italian POWs in Camp Atterbury has truly touched visitors to the History Center.

Historic Significance Photo Source: Vegetable Market on Delaware Street, 1905, Indiana Historical Society Collection 33 Monument Circle District Preservation Plan 34 Monument Circle District Preservation Plan HISTORIC SIGNIFICANCE City Planning and Development Carved out of the Northwest Territory, Indiana entered the Union as the nineteenth state in 1816. The city of Indianapolis was founded in 1821 as the state capital, when the Indiana State Legisla- ture sought a central location for the city and appointed a committee to choose the site. Once the site was chosen surveyors Alexander Ralston and Elias Fordham were hired to lay out the city, which was proposed as a grid of north-south and east-west streets in a mile square plat. This plat was influenced by the Pierre L’Enfant plan for Washington, D.C., which in turn was in- spired by the royal residence of Versailles. Since Indianapolis was planned as a state capital, the plat sited the State House Square and the Court House Square equidistant from Circle Street (now Monument Circle), located in the center of the Mile Square. The Governor’s house was to be situ- ated in the circular lot framed by Circle Street, and the four city blocks framing the Circle were known as the “Governor’s Square.” Four diagonal streets radiated out from the far corners of the four blocks framing the circle. All streets of the Mile Square were 90 feet wide with the exception of Washington Street, which was 120 feet wide to accommodate its intended use as the capital’s main street. The sale of lots in the new capital city on October 8, 1821 reveal the street’s importance, as lots fronting it com- manded the highest prices. -

ANNUAL REPORT 2014-2015 Dear LHS Family and Friends
ANNUAL REPORT 2014-2015 Dear LHS Family and Friends, Teachers, curriculum, students, activities, achievement, and a physical campus are the visible elements at Lutheran High School. Some believe that in order to reach our full potential, in order to show our value, in order to efectively reach our mission, we must maximize these elements. Wisdom, the application of knowledge and experience, is needed to lead this potential and validate our mission to prepare students for Christian life while providing academic excellence in a Christ-centered environment. The collaboration of wisdom and the gathering of knowledge and experience are aforded to us from an incredible resume of people which include teachers, parents, students, alum, school administration, the Board of Directors, the Association of Church Delegates, the Emeriti Association, Lutheran Church Pastors and Directors of Christian Education, the Indiana Department of Michael Brandt Education, the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod, the Indiana District Superintendent of Schools, the Athletic Directors and Head of School Principals from our Indiana Crossroads Conference, Indianapolis Public Safety Ofcials, the Department of Natural Resources, the Indiana High School Athletic Association, The College Board, Indiana University Advanced College Placement, the Department of Homeland Security, the North Central Association Commission on Accreditation, and last, and most importantly, our Heavenly Father. It is in Proverbs 9:10 we read, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.” The Bible uses the word “fear” over 300 times in reference to God. It is in this use that this word “fear” is actually referring to our immense respect and wonder of the power of God. -

Burlingame, Ph.D., Chair Doctoral Committee ______________________________ Robert G. Barrows, Ph.D. March 6, 2015 ______________________________ Nancy Marie Robertson, Ph.D. ______________________________ Philip V. Scarpino, Ph.D. ii Acknowledgments My thanks begin with my doctoral committee. Dwight Burlingame advised me throughout my entire program, chose the perfect readings for me in our dissertation seminar, helped me shape the project, and read each chapter promptly and thoughtfully. His steadfast belief in my scholarship and his infinite kindness have been invaluable. Phil Scarpino and Bob Barrows led the seminars during which my dissertation idea took shape. Nancy Robertson challenged me to look at the work from many different angles and suggested a veritable treasure trove of scholarship upon which to draw. All their questions, comments, guidance, and encouragement have helped my work more than mere words can express. My colleagues in the doctoral program and students in the undergraduate program provided unwavering support as I lovingly talked about my research, “my organization,” and “my time period.” I especially thank Barbara Duffy, who chose the Charity Organization Society of Indianapolis (1879-1883) for her History of Philanthropy doctoral seminar research project. I enjoyed talking about “our women,” sharing our emerging ideas, swapping sources, and basking in one another’s “Eureka!” moments as we made one connection after another. -
