A history of the Mormon settlement of central California with emphasis on New Hope and San Francisco, 1846-1847, and Modesto, 1920-1954

Baldridge, Kenneth Wayne 01 January 1956 (has links) (PDF)
Mormon contributions to California history are generally well known. Most school children have heard of the march of the Mormon Battalion. The name of Samuel Brannan is known to almost any student interested in this area. The more inquisitive scholar is familiar with the voyage of the BROOKLYN and subsequent relations of the Mormons to the history of San Francisco. The mention of New Hope, however, brings puzzled looks to the faces of most people, including Mormons today living within twenty miles of the area. The Mormon movement to California was part of a general exodus by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints from the East and Mid-west. Persecuted for many reasons, the Mormons had been forced to leave their homes in Illinois for some place "beyond the Rocky Mountains". At the same time, those members of' the Church in the eastern states were directed to proceed by ship to a spot on the Pacific Coast. It is the latter group about whom Part I is written. Much of the history of the Mormons in California, and of New Hope in particular, is sketchy, misleading and at times in actual error. Although it must be admitted that almost all the material contained in Part I had been used before by other writers, this study, as far as it is known, offers a contribution in that every reference available on Mormons in central California, in New Hope in particular, is gathered together within one volume.

A study of nutrition as a mass educational movement during World War II : with particular reference to the work done in San Joaquin County

Garrigan, Maxine V. 01 January 1949 (has links) (PDF)
During the decade, 1930-1940, most of the government efforts were directed to the task of seeing that no one should starve. Through welfare programs it was possible to insure low income groups against starvation; "but through the depression years and the poet-depression months, it was recognized that just the guarantee against starvation was not enough. Our nutritional goal should be commensurate with natural resources of our country and with our ability to produce, have the land, the equipment and the man power necessary to furnish good food for our whole nation. Knowing this and recognizing from surveys that a large percentage of our nation was poorly fed, our government put more emphasis upon the study of the problem of nutrition and how it affects our nation.

Klapstein, Earl Loren 01 January 1952 (has links) (PDF)

The purpose of this study will, therefore, be to determine the relationship between financial status of the school district and the academic preparation of employed certificated personnel in selected secondary schools of San Joaquin County.
