Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Newfoundland Quarterly, Vol. 4: June, 1904 The arrival of the Christian Brothers gave fresh life to the schools, and in a very few years the effect of their work was felt throughout the whole educational system in the Colony. The Christian Brothers were and are recognised throughout the world as being among the first educators of the day. What they have done for the lifting up and improvement of their youthful charges is well known to the people of Newfound land and to others who have followed their progress in Ireland and in foreign lands where the Brothers have established them selves. For themselves or their work they seek no earthly praise or pay. Their only recompense is the success of their charit able mission and to see their boys turn out good, sober and industrious citizens.

Book The Newfoundland Quarterly  Vol  12

Download or read book The Newfoundland Quarterly Vol 12 written by Jonh J. Evans and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-15 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Newfoundland Quarterly, Vol. 12: July, 1912 April, 1913 But when we come to consider its value in the Economy of amre. It becomes a factor of serious importance. Nearly all the power we see in things around us comes from the sun. From that great central orb. Stupendous quantities of heat are thrown out in all directions: and the share which finds its way to our earth is. In a large measure. Transformed into mechanical energy. The sunbeam hearing this energy spend the same in promoting the growth and development of all living things. The power that propels Niagara; the hurricane that uproots the forest; the force that drives the engine; as well as the life power that builds up the body of the developing infant. May all be analysed in the gentle sunbeam! Yet how prone are.we to deprive the growing innocent of this world-wide principle. Plants are placed in the sunlight. And they thrive. And grow; but the children are denied this health-giving power. And they wither and decay. Next to sunlight is [fa/l air. And in order to develop a healthy organism. Fresh. Pure air must be supplied. Small apartments. With closed doors and windows. Bring scores of children to a premature death. It is astonishing how few people adequately understand the value of pure air. Or have the slighest knowledge of the laws of ventilation. To raise a window. Or open a door. Is not ventilation. In the proper acceptance of the term. In fact it often happens that by so doing more harm is done than by allowing them to remain closed. The purity of the air in dwel lings depends upon the amount of cubic space allowed for each individual. And the facilities afforded for the entrance of fresh. And the exit of foul air. When these points are properly atten ded to. The air. Although rather more impure than the external atmosphere. Will not be productive of much injury. But in those extreme cases where many persons are crowded together. And the ventilation totally inadequate. The air. After a time. Becomes so impure as to cause headache. Lassitude. Nausea and fainting. The air in its natural state contains about four parts of carbonic acid in and no room in which people are living. Should be allowed to contain more than six parts in to.ooo. Therefore. The object of ventilation is to supply a sum cient quantity of pure air so as to prevent the carbonic acid from rising above six parts in So you see the permis sible limit is two parts in to.ooo. The long continued breath ing of vitiated air is one of the chief causes of rickets in children. And it tends to produce a lowered state of vitality in older per sons. Characterized by poor blood. Dyspepsia. And other forms of debility. People in this condition of low b odily vitality offer less resistence to the attacks of acute sickness; and. At the same time. Are more prone to chronic. And other wasting forms of disease. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Rule of the Admirals written by Jerry Bannister and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jerry Bannister's The Rule of the Admirals examines governance in Newfoundland from the rule of the fishing admirals in 1699 to the establishment of representative government in 1832. It offers the first in-depth account of the rise and fall of the system of naval government that dominated the island for more than a century. In this provocative look at legal culture in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Newfoundland, Bannister explores three topics in detail: naval government in St. John's, surrogate courts in the outports, and patterns in the administration of law. He challenges the conventional view that early Newfoundland was a lawless frontier isolated from the rest of the Atlantic world, and argues that an effective system of naval government emerged to meet the needs of those in power. An original and perceptive work, Bannister's argument demands that we reconsider much of our knowledge of early Newfoundland history. As he re-examines governance prior to an elected assembly and places his analysis firmly within the material conditions of Newfoundland society, Bannister provides a groundbreaking reinterpretation of a critical period in the island's colonial development. Ultimately, The Rule of the Admirals sheds light on one of the most misunderstood chapters in Canadian and British colonial history.
