Scenes from the High Desert

JULIAN STEWARD'S LIFE AND THEORY

By: Virginia Kerns

If a religion cannot attract and instruct young people, it will struggle to survive, which is why recreational programs were second only to theological questions in the development of twentieth-century Mormonism. In this book, Richard Ian Kimball explores how Mormon leaders used recreational programs to ameliorate the problems of urbanization and industrialization and to inculcate morals and values in LDS youth. As well as promoting sports as a means of physical and spiritual excellence, Progressive Era Mormons established a variety of institutions such as the Deseret Gymnasium and camps for girls and boys, all designed to compete with more "worldly" attractions and to socialize adolescents into the faith. Kimball employs a wealth of source material including periodicals, diaries, journals, personal papers, and institutional records to illuminate this hitherto underexplored aspect of the LDS church. In addition to uncovering the historical roots of many Mormon institutions still visible today, Sports in Zion is a detailed look at the broader functions of recreation in society.

The Walter and Eleanor Gillen Story

As Told By Their Children

By: Virginia Gillen Poole,Sherry Gillen Butcher Belmonte

The Walter and Eleanor Gillen story is an account of daily life in a large family raised on a farm in the Midwest during the sixties, and the trials and tribulations that led to their individual success. The youngest of nine children, Walter was born and raised on the family farm 20 miles from Toledo, Ohio. “Walter was 5 years old when his father bought his first car - a 1921 Willy's Overland Aster.” He enlisted in the U.S. Navy during World War II and returned to help run the family farm. “After finishing a day of farming, and supper was over, he washed up, changed into clean clothes, and went out for the evening. On his way to town, he picked up friends and cousins along the way to share the evening. He could also be found frequently stopping at a brother or sister’s home for a visit and was often seen with a niece or nephew in his arms.” Eleanor was the eldest of two children, and a city girl from Toledo, Ohio. Her family owned a Hupmobile, but mostly used city transportation. They took the train to visit family in New York every summer. Eleanor was married for two years when her first husband died. After six years, her mother encouraged her to start dating again. She went square dancing with her girlfriends at the Trianon Dance Hall and round dancing at the Odd Fellows Hall where her uncle worked, and where she met Walter in 1946. “Walter was 30 when he married Eleanor and won a longtime bet with Dudley that he wouldn’t marry before age 30. Eleanor was 27.” As a new couple they learned the farming and agriculture business and had nine children between 1947 and 1957. Their third child died the day after her birth. The family went to church on Sunday’s and often spent Sunday afternoons at a different aunt and uncle’s home. Everyone lived on a farm. Walter and his brother Leslie sold the family farm in 1959. Leslie moved to Wauseon, Ohio, and Walter and Eleanor moved to a 180-acre farm on Stony Lake in Brooklyn, Michigan. Walter had a manufacturing job to supplement the farm income. There was time to play after chores were done. Weekends included visits with family and friends, Sunday drives, singing along with Eleanor playing the piano, or games and cards. Walter and Eleanor bought a family restaurant in 1964 where the children worked before or after school when they were old enough. They lost the restaurant in 1970. “Failure. Lost the battle. Do what has to be done and keep your damn mouth shut.” They lost the farm in 1972 and rented an old house in nearby Onsted. The four younger children were still at home. “…everyone still at home spent weeks getting the house ready to live in. Every room had old wallpaper to be removed, up to 13 layers in some rooms.” Research found the house to be an 1830s plantation house and a stop along the Underground Railroad. No one wants to endure or experience hardships, but they are what builds and strengthens character, and enables one to overcome future challenges. “Eleanor had the great privilege of watching her children grow up to be well-adjusted, responsible, and happy adults.”

Eanger Irving Couse

Eanger Irving Couse

The Life and Times of an American Artist, 1866–1936

By: Virginia Couse Leavitt

Eanger Irving Couse (1866–1936) showed remarkable promise as a young art student. His lifelong interest in Native American cultures also started at an early age, inspired by encounters with Chippewa Indians living near his hometown, Saginaw, Michigan. After studying in Europe, Couse began spending summers in New Mexico, where in 1915 he helped found the famous Taos Society of Artists, serving as its first president and playing a major role in its success. This richly illustrated volume, featuring full-color reproductions of his artwork, is the first scholarly exploration of Couse’s noteworthy life and artistic achievements. Drawing on extensive research, Virginia Couse Leavitt gives an intimate account of Couse’s experiences, including his early struggles as an art student in the United States and abroad, his study of Native Americans, his winter home and studio in New York City, and his life in New Mexico after he relocated to Taos. In examining Couse’s role as one of the original six founders of the Taos Society of Artists, the author provides new information about the art colony’s early meetings, original members, and first exhibitions. As a scholar of art history, Leavitt has spent decades researching her subject, who also happens to be her grandfather. Her unique access to the Couse family archives has allowed her to mine correspondence, photographs, sketchbooks, and memorabilia, all of which add fresh insight into the American art scene in the early 1900s. Of particular interest is the correspondence of Couse’s wife, Virginia Walker, an art student in Paris when the couple first met. Her letters home to her family in Washington State offer a vivid picture of her husband’s student life in Paris, where Couse studied under the famous painter William Bouguereau at the Académie Julian. Whereas many artists of the early twentieth century pursued a radically modern style, Couse held true to his formal academic training throughout his career. He gained renown for his paintings of southwestern landscapes and his respectful portraits of Native peoples. Through his depictions of the domestic and spiritual lives of Pueblo Indians, Couse helped mitigate the prejudices toward Native Americans that persisted during this era.

Writing Development in Children with Hearing Loss, Dyslexia, or Oral Language Problems

Implications for Assessment and Instruction

By: Barbara Arfe PhD,Julie Dockrell EdD,Virginia Berninger PhD

Writing is challenging for the majority of learners. For students with language problems, difficulties with written expression are considered one of the most common learning challenges. There is much to learn about the ways in which oral language skills impact on the acquisition of written language in children. Writing Development in Children with Hearing Loss, Dyslexia, or Oral Language Problems focuses on the nature of the writing problems experienced by children with oral language problems. Three clinical groups are considered: children with hearing loss, oral language difficulties, and dyslexia. Each contribution comes from an expert or team of experts in these three areas and in the field of language and writing. The volume provides current understandings to help guide and support practitioners and researchers alike. It provides timely information across languages and countries, enhancing our understanding of the links between oral language and written language across languages.
