Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Colonnade, Vol. 4: January, 1942 We drank in every word the other said that afternoon, darling, as if time were passing too quickly for us, and as if we couldn't catch up with what we had missed in not knowing each other before. I had never talked so earnestly or so freely. My voice went on and on. For the first time, I opened the door to my real self, and slipped from the disguises of sophistication and brusqueness. I wrote my chemistry formulas for you on a paper napkin and told you how great a part of me my labora tory had become. Nancy, I murmured as I called your attention to the formula in pencil on the crinkled napkin, these letters and you symbolize my whole future. Dr. James thinks that in this formula, I can make a discovery that will be quite beneficial to American industries, but it means hours of research, experiment, nights without sleep, and days of constant study. At this you expressed concern. You knew that I must keep myself in good phys ical condition if I were to endure the strain of long hours spent in the lab. I promised you that I would keep fit, and that I wouldn't drink again. I worked hard after that. Each day I went as much as I could and stayed as long as-my eyes were open and my hands were steady. Sometimes, I would fall asleep over the test tubes. I couldn't have done it with out you, Nancy; for you believed in me, and I didn't want to fail you.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Colonnade, Vol. 4: March, 1942 The very principles which have made possible the type of universal education and the freedom of expression which we believe in and enjoy are assailed. If the totalitarian forces win out, they will prostitue the public press itself, which is, of course, that Fourth Estate which moulds the minds Of our democratic people more than Church or State or School. And along with the press they will enslave the young ambitious writers whom the college publi cations aim to set on their way to useful careers. In comparison with the stupendous values now at stake, we must acknowledge, the college magazines may seem ephemeral and non-essential.

Your experiences should be acceptable, satisfying, and a joy to you. They should not be repugnant, repellent, and disagree able. You should so conduct your own affairs that you are happy, interested, and comfortable in the performance of duty. You should not expect to be happy every moment, but the activities in which you engage should, on the whole, be acceptable to you. If they are not, you should do some thing different, or do what you are doing in a different way. My wish is that your experiences be pervaded with happiness all the days of your life, and that you will seek in the home, the school; and the church, and in all the situations of life, to increase this same quality in the experience of others.

We had, as custom would have it, passed the time of day, and she, I realized, had uncovered two very pertinent facts concern ing me: the first that I was born a Virgin ian, the second, that I had doubtless been living in California. Strange, I thought, how one's loyalty to her home state will out. I have, in the course of recent travel, met innumerable people who, When asked if they are from a certain state, will 'reply that they've lived t h e r e thirty, forty, possibly fifty years, but that their home is really in such-and-such. So it was that I was somewhat preoccupied with my thoughts and the breakfast before me when she spoke again.

The updated Third Edition features expanded sections on circulation, light, views, and site context, along with new considerations of environmental factors, building codes, and contemporary examples of form, space, and order.

Book To the Immortal Name and Memory of George Washington

Download or read book To the Immortal Name and Memory of George Washington written by Louis Torres and published by . This book was released on 2010-09-01 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Washington Monument is one of the most easily recognized structures in America, if not the world, yet the long and tortuous history of its construction is much less well known. Beginning with its sponsorship by the Washington National Monument Society and the grudging support of a largely indifferent Congress, the Monument's 1848 groundbreaking led only to a truncated obelisk, beset by attacks by the Know Nothing Party and lack of secured funding and, from the mid-1850s, to a twenty-year interregnum. It was only 1n 1876 that a Joint Commission of Congress revived the Monument and entrusted its completion to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.In "To the Immortal Name and Memory of George Washington": The United States Corps of Engineers and the Construction of the Washington Monument, historian Louis Torres tells the fascinating story of the Monument, with a particular focus on the efforts of Lieutenant Colonel Thomas Lincoln Casey, Captain George W. Davis, and civilian Corps employee Bernard Richardson Green and the details of how they completed the construction of this great American landmark. The book also includes a discussion and images of the various designs, some of them incredibly elaborate compared to the austere simplicity of the original, and an account of Corps stewardship of the Monument up to its takeover by the National Park Service in 1933. First published in 1985. 148 pages, ill.

  • Author : Hendrik Petrus Berlage
  • Publisher : Getty Publications
  • Release : 1996-01-01
  • ISBN : 0892363339
  • Pages : 350 pages

Download or read book Hendrik Petrus Berlage written by Hendrik Petrus Berlage and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 1996-01-01 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hendrik Petrus Berlage, the Dutch architect and architectural philosopher, created a series of buildings and a body of writings from 1886 to 1909 that were among the first efforts to probe the problems and possibilities of modernism. Although his Amsterdam Stock Exchange, with its rational mastery of materials and space, has long been celebrated for its seminal influence on the architecture of the 20th century, Berlage's writings are highlighted here. Bringing together Berlage's most important texts, among them "Thoughts on Style in Architecture", "Architecture's Place in Modern Aesthetics", and "Art and Society", this volume presents a chapter in the history of European modernism. In his introduction, Iain Boyd Whyte demonstrates that the substantial contribution of Berlage's designs to modern architecture cannot be fully appreciated without an understanding of the aesthetic principles first laid out in his writings.
