Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Newfoundland Quarterly, Vol. 9: July, 1909 Gentlemen you should see clearly from this Petition that my Government has been a failure, a total failure, else why thus desire for an absolute change. I will not, gentlemen, wait to be dismissed by the Home Government, I will at once resign. The school master leader, Harry Simms, cried out lose the best Governor that ever came to Newfoundland, perish the thought, and suiting the action to the word he tore the. Petition into shreds and threw it into the fire. After their retirement Sir John remarked to his genial Colo nial Secretary Did I not humbug those fellows well, Crowdy.

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.

Download or read book How Deep is the Ocean written by James E. Candow and published by Cape Breton University Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The collapse of the North Atlantic cod fishery in 1992 was one of the world's worst ecological disasters, and in 1995 Spanish and Canadian trawlers faced off over the dwindling supply of turbot. Where there used to be plenty, there is now virtually nothing; fishing communities that once survived (or even prospered) now face ruin.The twenty essays in How Deep is the Ocean? take a detailed look at the evolution of the Canadian east coast fishery. The book begins with aboriginal fishers before European contact; then it follows the European fishery through the days of sail, when boats could scarcely make headway through the teeming cod, to the diesel age, when electronic aids can find almost no cod. How Deep is the Ocean? covers the sociology of early fishing communities, the impact and significance of the credit system, and the techniques and technologies of aboriginal, European, and Canadian fisheries. The essays on the twentieth century include old-time fishing patterns of living memory and the changed state of the North Atlantic's ecology.

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 Newfoundland Railway 1898 1969 written by Les Harding and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2016-04-20 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The building of a narrow-gauge trans-island railway in nineteenth century Newfoundland was a reckless and even desperate experiment. The island was poor, the population small, and the local politics rife with bitter sectarian conflict. Against these unpromising odds, the Newfoundland Railway came into existence on June 29, 1898, and operated successfully for well over half a century. This book offers a comprehensive history of the Newfoundland Railway, focusing especially on the railroad's early years and the important early contributions of railway engineer R.G. Reid. A chronology and glossary are also included, along with several appendices which offer eye-witness accounts of the railway as recorded in period news articles, personal correspondence, poetry, and songs.

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.
