Fred Hayden Carruth : Author and Journalist, 1862-1932

This study was undertaken to compile information about Fred Hayden Carruth during the period of his life-time, 1862-1932, his activity as author and journalist forming the guidelines. Carruth\u27s success as a western humorist and local journalist on two Dakota Territory weeklies, the Estelline Bell and the Dakota Bell, was probably the factor which helped him obtain a position as a humorous editorial witer with the New York Tribune, foremost paper in the country in 1888. He went on his own in 1892 and after free-lancing his way onto the pages of more than nineteen popular periodicals, Carruth began a thirty-four year career with the Woman\u27s Home Companion (1905-1932). In 1915 he established the Postscript page, the Companion feature which formed the focal point of his later fame. Carruth authored four books for boys: The Adventures of Jones (1895), The Voyage of the Rattletrap (1897), Mr. Milo Busch and Other Worthies (1899), and Track\u27s End (1911). “South Dakota: State Without End, an essay which appears in E. H. Gruening\u27s These United States, is his best known short article. The absurd exaggeration of the tall tale combined with droll western wit to recapture the lighter aspects of frontier life earmark Carruth’s writing

Димитрије Данић : (1862-1932)

Dimitrije Danić was born on January 21,1862 in Belgrade, and died on March 23,1932. He finished elementary school in Belgrade, secondary school in Zurich; then he completed three semesters at the Polytechnical School at Berlin and seven semesters at the Department of Natural Science and Mathematics of Berlin University, majoring in mathematics. He defended his Ph. D. Conformal Mapping of Elliptic Paraboloid on Plane at. Jena University, in 1885, where he also passed oral part of his doctoral examination. He applied for the post of lecturer of lower mathematical analysis at the Belgrade College for two times, in 1885 and in 1887, but was not accepted as full time professor. Disappointed, he left the Belgrade College and joined the Military Academy where, after only nine months, he was elected full time professor of mathematics, in December 1888. He was teaching at the Military Academy till his retirement. Dimitrije Daniel lectured all the courses in mathematics at the Military Academy, which, according to school curriculum were of the same quality as courses taught at the Belgrade College and later on at the University. In his doctoral dissertation Dimitrije Daniel considered conformal mapping of elliptic paraboloid to plane according to Gauss definition, i.e. the mapping of characteristic inter-sections of elliptic paraboloid for different forms of the function. In his work the author used differential and integral calculus for solving obtained differential equations. He had to solve complex elliptical integrals. His contribution is also in introducing elliptical transformations of variables and in using elliptical functions. He considered their interconnection, and connections with elliptical integrals. In the widest sense of its meaning, he used the theory of complex functions of complex variables. Bearing in mind the time when this work was presented to the public and the level of development of mathematical analysis applied at the Belgrade College, then it could be concluded, without any doubt, that his dissertation represented significant contribution to the development of mathematics here. He wrote eight textbooks and manuals: Formulas and Theorems in Trigonometry (1888); Analytical Geometry on Plane (1893); Lectures on Trigonometry with Theory of Logarithm and Complex Numbers (1889); Foundations of Infinitesimal Calculus — Differential Calculus (1920); Foundations and Theory of Combination and Principles of Probability (1921); Foundations of Infinitesimal Calculus and Integral Calculus (1922); Analytical Geometry of Plane and Space (1922); Formulas and Theorems of Mathematics (1927). All those works consist of over 2.000 textbook pages. Some of the textbooks were a pioneering endeavor, as for example Analytical Geometry of Plane and Analytical Geometry of Space, or Foundations of Theory of Combination and Principles of Probability. At the Military Academy, professor Danić was very strict professor, person of high criterium vis-a-vis his students. Besides his pedagogical work, he was interested in the problems of inner and outer ballistics of various arms and weapons. He was analysing the results of combat marksmanship, fire dispersion and marking of the target. In his analysis he applied his knowledge on Jacob Bernoulli's independent experiments. For his distinguished achievements he was decorated with the Order of St.Sava of IV, III and II class.Биографије и библиографије / Српска академија наука и уметности ; књ. 3.

Building for the Future: Rosenwald Schools in Warren County

Julius Rosenwald (1862-1932), merchant and philanthropist, learned the clothing business from his uncles in New York City, and eventually opened his own establishment in Chicago. In 1895 Rosenwald invested $75,000 in Sears, Roebuck and Company. By 1908 he was the company’s president. Rosenwald’s philanthropic interests were numerous. He was particularly interested in rural and agricultural development, better education for African Americans and improved race relations. His School Building Program provided seed money to build over 5,000 African American schools, shops and teacher’s homes across the southern United States. Between 1917 and 1920 Kentucky built its first 33 Rosenwald Schools in 25 counties. The Fund supported three schools in Warren County, one each at Delafield, Rockfield and Bristow
