Download or read book Memoirs of an Elusive Moth written by Adele Friel Rhindress and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Harry Blackstone presented a full-evening production called the Show of 1001 Wonders. It lived up to that billing, as a stage-filling spectacle combining spectacular illusions, magnificent costumes, gorgeous girls, a corps of assistants, humor, dancing, and intimate conjuring, into a seamless two-hour production. Beginning at the turn of the 20th century, Blackstone toured North America ceaselessly. His matchless personality transcended theater footlights, and his magic set minds agog. By 1947, after over four decades entertaining the public, Harry Blackstone was unquestionably one of America¿s greatest and best-known magicians. It was in that year, at the age of 17, that Adele Friel was swept into Blackstone¿s world of magic. She joined the ranks of his show unexpectedly, making the transition from solo song-and-dance act to one of ¿Mr. B¿s¿ ¿gorgeous girls¿ in the blink of an eye. It was a decision that would change her life. For the next three seasons, she trouped with Blackstone, playing an integral role in his show, both onstage and backstage. Memoirs of an Elusive Moth gives readers a rare and intimate first-person account of one of America¿s greatest touring magic shows. Laid bare in its pages are many of the secrets behind Blackstone¿s magic, as well as details of life in the theater, behind the scenes, on the road, and more ¿ all told here for the first time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Butterfly and Moth Book: Personal Studies and Observations of the More Familiar Species MY interest in Moths and Butterflies was awakened some ten years ago while at the farm on which we spent our sum mers. The big flower garden and the Old orchard served free luncheons to these insects and, judging by numbers, they appreciated the treats offered. At the time I was in need of an entire change of thought a relaxation from the strain which had come with the long illness Of the little mother. She had grown better, but I realized that henceforth she would always require my personal care and attention, and I wanted to give her not only these but some new interests which might replace in part other interests that she would be obliged to relinquish. It was then that the Moths and Butterflies solved these problems, for they led us into the fairy-land of Natural Science, where, as we journeyed, we forgot much of the fatigue and pain Of earlier days.

Book excerpt: "In the tradition of book anthologies created from public radio programs such as StoryCorps and This I Believe, THE MOTH collects the best storytelling moments--most in print here for the very first time--straight from their archive of more than 3000 shows since the first Moth Evening in 1997. From James Braly's struggling with what to do when his three-year-old son wants a pink bicycle to Dr. George Lombardi's flying to India to save Mother Theresa's life, from former U.S. Press Secretary Joe Lockhart's oversleeping after a long night in a Moscow bar and missing Air Force One on his first international trip, to Ed Gavagan's surviving being stabbed by a gang and then testifying at their trial, these 40 stories range from sublime to heartbreaking to hilarious, and this collection will feature the very best. Backed by The Moth's own efforts and their expanding syndication and live event efforts in 2012-2013, this book will be an important and cherished read for existing fans of the program, literary fans of some of the featured storytellers, and oral history buffs coast-to-coast"--

This book was released on 2008-10 with total page 594 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1917 edition. Excerpt: ... (6) Columns for Discount on Purchases and Discount on Notes on the same side of the Cash Book; (c) Columns for Discount on Sales and Cash Sales on the debit side of the Cash Book; (d) Departmental columns in the Sales Book and in the Purchase Book. Controlling Accounts.--The addition of special columns in books of original entry makes possible the keeping of Controlling Accounts. The most common examples of such accounts are Accounts Receivable account and Accounts Payable account. These summary accounts, respectively, displace individual customers' and creditors' accounts in the Ledger. The customers' accounts are then segregated in another book called the Sales Ledger or Customers' Ledger, while the creditors' accounts are kept in the Purchase or Creditors' Ledger. The original Ledger, now much reduced in size, is called the General Ledger. The Trial Balance now refers to the accounts in the General Ledger. It is evident that the task of taking a Trial Balance is greatly simplified because so many fewer accounts are involved. A Schedule of Accounts Receivable is then prepared, consisting of the balances found in the Sales Ledger, and its total must agree with the balance of the Accounts Receivable account shown in the Trial Balance. A similar Schedule of Accounts Payable, made up of all the balances in the Purchase Ledger, is prepared, and it must agree with the balance of the Accounts Payable account of the General Ledger." The Balance Sheet.--In the more elementary part of the text, the student learned how to prepare a Statement of Assets and Liabilities for the purpose of disclosing the net capital of an enterprise. In the present chapter he was shown how to prepare a similar statement, the Balance Sheet. For all practical...
