[ Education ]Popple, William]
A Rational Catechism
<p>Amsterdam: Printed for the Widow of J.J. Schipper 1712 Second edition not so stated dedicated to the author's "dearest daughters" with a long quote from Locke's On Education on the title-page. The work is a significant distillation of the principles of toleration first published in 1687. . . Contemporary mottled calf. Gilt spine tooled in compartments yellow silk ribbon marker. . Twelvemo. Edges sprinkled red. Binding extremities slightly worn and boards a bit scratched. Front joint cracked but sound. The Macclesfield copy with the blindstamps shelf marks and the South Library bookplate. A very good copy clean copy. William Popple 1638-1708 was the nephew of Andrew Marvell and was educated under his guidance. He was a successful merchant in Hull before moving to Bordeaux where he lived from 1670 to 1688. After returning to London he met William Penn and became secretary of the Dry Club established by John Locke to debate issues of religious liberty. He also translated Locke's Letter on Toleration 1689 from the Latin. When Locke was appointed a commissioner of the Board of Trade in 1696 Popple became the board's secretary. Though this is a dialogue between a father and son the dedication to his daughters states: "I am desirous that it may be a common memorial of me unto all of you when I shall be no more I therefore make it yours also by this dedication: And for the same reason I have likewise added unto it a copy of that advice which I formerly gave him in such verse as my unpractised Muse then dictated.</p> Printed for the Widow of J.J.

Paper-folding and -Designing Combined. A Kindergarten Occupation for Infants and Juniors. The "A.L." Educational Serie
<p>Leeds: E.J. Arnold & Son n.d. ca. 1899. Fourth edition revised and expanded. Rare. OCLC records only 2 copies in libraries worldwide. Green cloth-colored boards. Title and paper-folding decorative design in black. . Small quarto. . With 27 full-page color diagrams and numerous half page diagrams. Upper right corner of first few leaves and last leaf clipped but text is unaffected. Minor edge wear. A few folding paper samples laid in and sample sheets at rear. Endpapers feature the publisher's logo. Very good copy. Z. Ford was a Froebel Kindergarten teacher during the end of the 19th-Century. We could not locate much more information on him in the sources available to us. The present work gives detailed instructions and diagrams for kindergarten students studying the Froebel gifts with colorful illustrated examples. According to the preface: "There is no Kindergarten occupation more pleasing and interesting to children than that of paper-folding … This little work is intended to show how the paper-folding occupation lends itself to the cultivation of the designing powers in children." It is also noted that "Juniors" can use this book as preparation for the study of geometry. The A.L. Educational Series focused on children's creativity and learning-through-play concept that was one of the central tenets of Froebel's educational method. Other titles in the series include Guide to the Drawing Examinations 1892 by D.E. Hillier and Paper-Flower Making 1897 by I.A. Williamson.</p> E.J. Arnold & Son, hardcover

[ Women Education ]
The Education of Undergraduate Women at Princeton: An Examination of Coordinate Versus Coeducational Patterns.
<p>Princeton New Jersey: Princeton University March 1969 Pale bule printed paper wrappers. . Octavo. With a full-page table comparing educational models. Fading and light foxing to front cover. Very bright and clean throughout. A very good copy of an uncommon item reporting the results of a study on how Princeton University could implement their decision to admit women. A committee of Princeton students faculty and administrators considered five models for incorporating women into the college: 1 "Separate educational institutions joined by a 'treaty' which makes possible some sharing of facilities and faculty"; 2 "Two institutions with separate formal identities but with one faculty identified with the men's college"; 3 "A separate women's residential college or zone within the University"; 4 "A single institution with an established ratio of women to men students but with no separate residential college"; and 5 "A single institution with no established ratio of women to men students." The present item summarizes the characteristics advantages and disadvantages of the five models. Princeton began admitting undergraduate women in the fall of 1969 under the fourth proposed model. The model allowed women to choose between living on campus in designated spaces women-only dorms or women's sections in larger dorms or living off campus and between eating and socializing in communal spaces with men or in their own dorms and private residences. The text reads: "This model avoids any connotations of 'segregation' and thus is attractive on grounds of principle to those who believe it is important that men and women students learn how to know each other simply as 'people'" p. 9.</p> Princeton University,]

[African Americana]: [Alabama]: [Education]
1955 Academy Bugle cover title
Enterprise Alabama 1955. Very good. 32pp. Original red wrappers decoratively stamped in gilt on front cover stapled. Minor rubbing along spine. A seemingly unrecorded yearbook for a segregated African American elementary school in Alabama. Enterprise Academy taught first through sixth grade to the African American community in Enterprise Alabama near Dothan in the southern portion of the state. Coffee County Training School opened in 1928 after Alabama finally began supporting public education for African Americans. Elementary students were moved to Enterprise Academy in 1947. The present work pictures the principal staff teachers and students at Enterprise; fifty-seven sixth graders are pictured individually. Fourth and fifth grades are each pictured in two group photos; second and third grades in three group photos each and first in four group photos. The school appears to have had no kindergarten though the present yearbook also pictures the school's Student Council cheerleaders choir and Boy Scouts. We could locate no other examples of this or any other yearbook for Enterprise Academy. unknown

[African Americana]: [Florida]: [Education]
Albumen Photograph Featuring Rev. J.L.A. Fish and His Wife Posed with Their African American Students Outside a "Colored School"
N.p. but likely Live Oak FL 1880. Very good. Albumen photograph 4.5 x 7.75 inches mounted on card. Card trimmed with pinholes at corners remnants of printed caption in bottom margin slight surface soiling and spotting. Penciled annotation on verso. A stunning original photograph featuring Rev. Joseph Leroy Atwell Fish 1828-1890 and his wife and children posed amongst their African-American students at an unnamed "colored school" which was very likely the Florida Baptist Institute. The images captures Fish his wife and probably his daughters in the middle of the frame standing in front of a large two-story schoolhouse surrounded by about eighty young Black men and women in suits and dresses. Revered Fish was a graduate of Amherst College and the Newton Theological Seminary who was ordained a Baptist minister in 1856. Fish was also a teacher who helped found Florida Memorial University Florida Baptist Institute in Live Oak in 1880 where he served as first president of the institution until his death there on March 26 1890. Florida Memorial University is the only HBCU in the southern part of the state. The penciled annotation on the present photograph provides some information on the photograph but is probably ultimately misleading in one regard: "Rev. J.L.A. Fish & wife In Virginia teaching a colored school -- He married my Father & Mother Mr. & Mrs. Milan Hills Lucy M. Williams Dec. 21 1875."<br /> <br /> The latter part of this inscription is indeed true. Reverend Fish married Milan Hills and Lucy Williams on December 21 1875 in Hebron New York where he was serving as a church pastor. But the historical record does not indicate that Reverend Fish ever taught at an African-American school in Virginia if he did it was so brief that it is now lost to history. Fish's first known foray into teaching African American students was a brief six-month stint in Natchez Mississippi in 1879. Immediately thereafter Fish was appointed to the Florida Baptist Institute where he served the last decade of his life. As such it is far more likely that the inscriber here meant to say that Reverend Fish and his wife were "In FLORIDA teaching a colored school."<br /> <br /> Reverend Fish's work at the Florida Institute is covered in the Obituary Record of Graduates of Amherst College for the Academical Year ending June 27 1883: "His chief work was with the Freedmen as he brought Florida Institute out of all its troubles financial and social changed the feeling of the whites from hatred to sympathy with his work and put the school on a permanent foundation. His aim was to educate leaders for the race and the principal effort of his school was to train teachers and preachers to go out through the state and by their example to lift up and educate both intellectually and morally the colored people. His influence was felt throughout the state both through his training of teachers and preachers and through his counsels given at conventions associations and other gatherings of the colored men and in private. He is mourned by both white and black. By the whites because they knew his teachings would help the colored people without causing trouble to them. By the latter because they miss their leader teacher and friend. unknown

The Ritual of the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority cover title
N.p. likely Washington D.C. 1939. About good. 476pp. of mimeographed text plus one leaf of sheet music. Original red printed wrappers brad bound. Substantial edge wear reinforced with cello tape repaired tear and large area of loss to rear wrapper some dust-soiling to covers. Ink ownership inscription on front blank belonging to Ruth W. Lee otherwise internally clean. A delightfully homespun pamphlet containing the revised edition of the various rituals of the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority one of the "Divine Nine" sororities of the HBCU community founded at Howard University in 1913 and still active today. According to the organization’s own website Delta Sigma Theta is "committed to sisterhood scholarship service and addressing the social issues of the time.and has become one of the preeminent service-based sororities with more than 350000 initiated members and over 1050 chartered chapters worldwide." The present work was issued by the Ritual Revision Committee whose names are listed here along with a note from the committee chairman Edna B. Johnson-Morris and a Preface from the committee which includes notes of gratitude to various members including honorary member Mary McLeod Bethune thanking her for "The Beacon Light." The body of the work contains chapters on conducting both grand chapter sessions and regular meetings the initiation ceremony the establishment of new chapters conferring honorary status the process of reinstatement the pledge ceremony the funeral ceremony the observance of memorials dedication exercises the order of business for chapter meetings and closing ceremonies for both types of meetings. Much of the work is literally comprised of the scripts for these various processes and ceremonies. These chapters are followed by the text of the DST "National Hymn" sheet music for "How We Love Thy Name" and the text for the sorority's prayer oath and the "Sorority Charge."<br /> <br /> "As a sisterhood comprised primarily of Black college-educated women the Sorority seriously considers the issues impacting the Black community and boldly confronts the challenges of African Americans and hence all Americans. Over the years a wide range of programs addressing education health international development and the strengthening of African American families have evolved. The major programs of the Sorority are based upon the Five-Point Programmatic Thrust: economic development educational development international awareness and involvement physical and mental health and political awareness and involvement" - Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Inc. website. Printed works issued by the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority are exceedingly rare. OCLC reports just a few items of any type printed before 1970 along with just a few institutional collections relating to various chapters of the sorority containing material before 1950. The present work is not separately listed in OCLC and very likely not present in the chapter collections. unknown
