Battle Creek Sanitarium Women Nursing Eugenics Seventh Day Adventism
Archive of Photographs Correspondence and Ephemera from a Student at the Battle Creek Sanitarium School of Nursing Most 1925-1926.
<p>The Battle Creek Sanitarium School of Nursing Battle Creek Sanitarium ran a school of nursing on its campus from 1883 onward when it was started by Dr. Kate Lindsay following the principles of nursing learned at Bellevue Hospital in New York. The Battle Creek Scooh of Nursing was the first Adventist nursing school in the country. The school was aligned with the Battle Creek Sanitarium with Dr. John Kellogg's principles of nutrition and self-restraint taught throughout the program. </p>The collection of material here belonging to the student Ethel Roop represents a surprisingly intimate portrait of a young woman's life while at the School of Nursing from 1924 to 1926. The large scrapbook mixes intimate portraits of Roop and her student friends with a wide range of ephemera some printed some kept including Halloween decorations medical paraphernalia appointment receipts letters and other keepsakes. Roop kept her correspondence - acceptance letters etc. and most interestingly her correspondence from her fellow students. One smaller well-kept photo album shows scenes from the college including a portrait of Kellogg in the snow with the caption "Dr. Kellogg Himself / Hale and Hearty at 74 / Our Inspiration and Guide" a photograph of three women cleaning produce "Cleaning celery - cleaning lettuce too / In Diet Kitchen there's lots to do" several pictures from the infant ward one picture of a young boy on the toilet and other pictures from the grounds. The level of comradery among the students seems quite high and despite the institution's ideological leanings many of the sentiments seem typical of a student album. <br /><p>Of particular note are several handwritten pages of verse which relate the difficulties in nursing student life: "I wish I was a surgeon / That's what I'd like to be / On every one that had a grouch / I'd perform an 'ectomy.'" One makeshift card gives a "recipe for making a good nurse" mixing together "equal parts pluck good health and well balanced sympathy stiffen with energy and soften with milk of human kindness." </p>Overall an interesting group uncommon in its insider look at the Kellogg empire and quite broad as a record of a young woman's life. Good to very good condition with some staining to larger album contents generally excellent. <br /> N.p.

Bayley, Emily Metcalfe; Metcalfe, Thomas & Kaye, M.M.
The Golden Calm: An English Lady's Life in Moghul Delhi Reminiscences
Emily Annie Theophila Metcalfe, the eldest daughter of Sir Thomas Metcalfe, was born at Meerut in the North West Provinces, India, in 1830. Her earliest recollections were of the family home in Delhi, where she spent most of her childhood until the age of five, when she was sent home to England; she was not to return to India until early in 1848, when she was seventeen. Just over two years later, at the age of nineteen, she married Sir Edward Clive Bayley in Delhi. Her reminiscences, skilfully edited by M.M. Kaye, provide a sparkling account of a young lady growing to maturity amid the flamboyant finery of the dying Moghul Empire. Through her eyes we see a world fascinatingly remote from our own in terms of both space and time. But an extra dimension is added by the inclusion of over 110 facsimile pages of the "Delhie Book" compiled by her father, Sir Thomas Metcalfe, who commissioned illustrations from some of the finest of the Delhi artists and wrote detailed descriptions of the places and personages around him. 217p.

Winter Parva is a �picturesque� touristy Cotswold village with gift shops a medieval market hall and thatched cottages. After a disappointing Christmas season the parish council has decided to hold a special event in January complete with old-fashioned costumes morris dancing and a pig roast on the village green.� Always one for a good roasting Agatha Raisin organizes an outing to enjoy the merriment. The rotary spit turning over a bed of blazing charcoals is sure to please on this foggy and blistery evening. But as the fog lifts slightly the sharp-eyed Agatha notices something peculiar about the pig: a tattoo of a heart with an arrow through it and the name Amy. �Stop!� she screams suddenly. �Pigs don�t have tattoos.� The �pig� in fact is Gary Beech a policeman not exactly beloved by the locals including Agatha herself. Although Agatha has every intention of leaving matters to the police everything changes when the Gary�s ex-wife Amy hires Agatha�s detective agency to investigate�and another murder ensues. With that provocation how could any sleuth as vain and competitive and secretly insecure as Agatha do anything other than solve the case herself . Minotaur Books hardcover
