  • John William Carlin
    John William Carlin MESSAGE OF GOVERNOR JOHN CARLIN TO THE KANSAS LEGISLATURE January 10, 1985 Mr. Speaker, Mr. President, Members of the Kansas Legislature, and Fellow Kansans: Last year, I stood before you and asked you to confront the "quiet crises" threatening our State. The overcrowding of our prisons had created a crisis that threatened the integrity of our criminal justice system. The absence of an organized effort to identify and clean up toxic wastes and to prevent their continued burial left unanswered questions of safety and health consequences. The rising cost of construction of the Wolf Creek Generating Station held the dark promise of unrestrained rate increases for electric customers. Most importantly, the State faced the prospect of a decline in the quality of public education without a major investment in teacher salaries. In each of these areas the Legislature responded. In each area a consensus for action was crafted, and the first steps to address the "quiet crises" were taken. The critics of our system of representative democracy would say that crisis is required to move it to action. Such a cynical view asserts that only under extraordinary circumstances will elected representatives risk their own political self interests. We in Kansas should not settle for decision- making in a crisis environment since it forces action, but not necessarily long-term solutions. I believe that you, as the elected representatives of the people of Kansas, are motivated by more than self interest. I believe that you are, first and foremost, concerned about the future of our State and its people.

A circle of his followers watched him as he spread the small roll of sheepskin before him, then tied the parchment with a purple thread, sealed it with his gem- studded seal and handed it to a waiting messenger, who mounted his camel and was away, across the desert, into the deepening dark. The scene shifts; the centuries pass. The Saxon abbot is alone in his meager library, and he scans once more the sheepskin on which the brilliant colors shine. They spell out in gold, ruby, sapphire blue, a secret message of great importance, that the student monks have written and illuminated with all care and laid before him. He forms it all into a booklet and ties it with a purple figment of silk that matches his robe. Then he reaches for his lead seal and presses the beeswax into the knot, so that the image of the mitre and the cross is plain to see. The document is ready for the fleet-footed messenger.

  • University Microfilms
    INFORMATION TO USERS This dissertation was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding o f the dissertation.

  • Chilton Historical Mural
    CHILTON HISTORICAL MURAL The imagery in the Chilton mural spans 75 yrs. from 1840 through 1915 and is portrayed in a ‘hand-tinted’ image. This style of imagery was a popular technique of the era bringing color into the monochromatic imagery of the day. Sitting firmly on the Manitowoc, Chilton’s matriarch, Catherine Stanton can be seen prominently positioned in front of the former State Street bridge. Just beyond the ironclad bridge you can see a suggestion of a fading grist mill that the Stanton’s erected and was fundamental in Chilton’s early development during the time. Catherine is flanked on her right by members of a Ho-Chunk family, each of which have tribal beads and patterns embedded into their clothing. Catherine's image is a hybrid of two different photos of her and she adorns a working-class dress of the era. Mrs. Stanton is flanked on her left by both Civil War veterans Harrison Hobart and George Breed. Both men were fundamental toward Chilton’s continued growth and prosperity after their Civil War military service concluded. Former Hotel Chilton and St. Mary’s parish stand as iconic backdrops for a section of the Chilton boys homecoming from the Great War. On the far right of the wall, an architectural sketch of the Malt House sits directly above Breeds shoulder. The central visuals are different tributes toward agriculture, each has a different emphasis but are all centrally positioned in their importance. In these options you will find two local women raking hay, and a group of farmers appear to be delighted by their new John Deere tractor.
