"I Made It Myself" published by McLoughlin Bros. of Springfield, Mass. No copyright date found, but most likely the 1920's. Designed by Louise D. Tessin. Eleven double-sided pages plus both one-sided paper-board covers, which can be converted into calendars. This appears to be the companion book to "Something to Do for Everyday," also designed by Tessin and published in 1928.

When Herbert wakes up and finds he has become an elephant, his mother worried about her floors. Herbert's girlfriend Annie is not worried at all, and goes for a ride on herbert's back, to the park and even right into the pond...

(the thumbnail photo of me there is horrid. They asked for a passport photo of me, so I gave them one... I didn't think they'd publish it, or I would have given a better one! Ah, oh well)
In 1819, Sir Walter Scott published a story called the Bride of Lammermuir. Like most of the stories Scott wrote, it was based on fact - and fact of course, is often stranger than fiction. The story upon which Scott based his story concerns the Rutherford family and Scott's mother was a Rutherford, which is likely where he heard the story. The (true) story goes as follows:
Janet Dalrymple (Lucy Ashton in Scott's novel), was the eldest daughter of James Dalrymple, 1st Viscount Stair, and his wife Margaret Ross of Balneil. As a young woman, Janet secretly pledged her troth to Archibald, third Lord Rutherfurd, cousin and heir of the Earl of Teviot. (Archibald was therefore the model for Edgar of Ravenswood in The Bride of Lammermuir.)
In keeping with the customs of the time, Janet's parents eventually arranged a marriage for her - the candidate being David Dunbar, heir of Sir David Dunbar of Baldoon Castle. Janet's mother, on finding out from her daughter about the earlier bethrothal, insisted on the match with Dunbar. Rutherfurd's politics were unacceptable to the Dalrymples, Lord Stair being a staunch Whig, while Rutherfurd was an ardent supporter of Charles II. And to make matters considerably worse, he had no money!
Archibald Rutherford wrote to Janet, but her mother (upon whom Scott based the haughty and manipulative Lady Ashton) intercepted the letter and wrote back saying that her daughter had seen her mistake and was intent on marrying David Dunbar.
The marriage went ahead on 24 August 1669, in the church of Old Luce, Wigtownshire. Her younger brother later recollected that Janet's hand was "as cold and damp as marble", and she remained impassive the whole day. Eventually the couple retired to their bedroom, shortly after which, screaming was heard coming from within. The door was forced open and the guests found Dunbar stabbed and bleeding and Janet, whose shift was bloody, cowering in the corner, saying only "take up thy bonny bridegroom." Janet died, apparently insane, on 12 September 1669, without divulging what had occurred. She was buried on 30 September, either at Newliston near Edinburgh, or at Old Luce.
David Dunbar recovered from his wounds, but similarly refused to explain the event. He remarried in 1674, to Lady Eleanor Montgomerie, daughter of the Earl of Eglinton, but died on 28 March 1682 after falling from his horse between Leith and Edinburgh.
Archibald Rutherfurd died in 1685, without children.
So nobody really knows what happened inside the bedroom. It was generally believed that Janet had stabbed her new husband, though other versions of the story suggest that Rutherfurd had hidden in the bedchamber in order to attack his rival, before escaping through the window. Naturally enough, the involvement of the devil or other malign spirits was also suggested - this is Scotland after all!
In consequence, Baldoon Castle is said to be haunted (although I would doubt the events would have happened here, as weddings don't usually take place at the groom's home, particularly when the bride's father is a viscount.)
I was the set photographer for a short film by Brooke Shaden last fall. Kodak's In Camera magazine decided to run a story on her film and used one of my photos. Needless to say, I am thrilled.

The Postcard
A Matteson Series postcard that was published by R. Steinman, St. Paul, Minn. The card was posted in Raton, New Mexico using a one cent stamp on the 30th. October 1907. It was sent to:
Miss O. S. Higgins,
East Gray,
Maine.
The message on the divided back of the card was as follows:
"A little different
from Maine.
E. M."
Sol Tax
So what else happened on the day that the card was posted?
Not a lot, but the 30th. October 1907 did mark the birth, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, of Sol Tax. The following obituary was published by the University of Chicago Chronicle on the 19th. January 1995:
"Professor Sol Tax
Sol Tax (Ph.D. 1935), an internationally renowned anthropologist, Professor Emeritus and former Chairman of Anthropology and former Dean of the University Extension, died on the 4th. January 1995. He was 87.
Tax organized anthropology as a global discipline, and helped establish the field of action anthropology, an approach in which researchers work to help solve social problems. He also was a specialist on Native American cultures.
In 1957, he founded Current Anthropology, an international journal that publishes research and commentary. He was editor of the journal from 1957 to 1974.
George Stocking, the Stein-Freiler Distinguished Service Professor in Anthropology has said:
"More than any other single person, Sol Tax
was the facilitator and organizer of anthropology
as an international discipline.
He used Current Anthropology as a means of
providing communication worldwide on important
issues in anthropology.
Particularly in developing countries and in the
former Soviet Union in the 1960's and 1970's,
Sol Tax was the name people associated with
anthropology."
Throughout his career, Tax was a leader in bringing people together to discuss social and anthropological issues. In 1961, he was coordinator of the American Indian Chicago Conference, which brought 700 Native Americans from more than 80 tribal groups to the University in order to prepare a "Declaration of Indian Purpose."
The declaration sought for the first time to present a unified Native American position on the relation of native people to the federal government.
In 1968, Sol organized a conference on the military draft that brought together military leaders and political figures. The conference led to the publication the same year of Tax's book The Draft: A Handbook of Facts and Alternatives.
In 1973, Sol organized the Ninth International Congress of Anthropological and Ethnological Sciences, "One Species, Many Cultures," which was held in Chicago.
More than 1,000 papers were presented at 85 conference sessions. The conference was attended by 4,000 scholars from more than 100 countries.
Tax's main area of specialization was the social anthropology of North and Middle American Indians. As a researcher in that area, he established the approach known as action anthropology.
Tax said in a paper that he delivered at a meeting of the American Anthropological Association in 1950:
"By definition, action anthropology is an
activity in which an anthropologist has
two coordinate goals, to neither one of
which he will delegate an inferior position.
He wants to help a group of people to
solve a problem, and he wants to learn
something in the process."
Tax received his Ph.B. in 1931 from the University of Wisconsin and his Ph.D. in 1935 from Chicago. He was an ethnologist for the Carnegie Institution from 1934 to 1946.
Sol also served for much of his career, from 1938 to 1962, as director of the Fox Indian Project in Tama, Iowa.
Tax joined the University of Chicago faculty as Research Associate in 1940. He was named Professor in 1948.
From 1963 to 1968, he served as Dean of the University Extension. As dean, he oversaw the off-campus education programs of the University, and also organized conferences, including one held in 1965 on the theme "The Origins of Man."
The research presented at that conference added new insights to work that had been presented at a conference that Tax had organized and chaired in 1959 -- the Darwin Centennial Celebration held at the University.
In addition to being on the faculty at Chicago, Tax served as director of the Smithsonian Institution's Center for the Study of Man. He also served on the U.S. National Commission for UNESCO, and on President Johnson's special task force on American Indian Affairs.
Sol was a consultant for the U.S. Office of Education, the U.S. Bureau of Indian Affairs, the National Institute of Mental Health, and the Smithsonian Institution.
Tax was widely honored for his work. In 1962, he received the Viking Fund Medal and Award from the Wenner-Gren Foundation for Anthropological Research for his outstanding achievements.
He was an honorary member of the Royal Anthropological Institute of Great Britain and Ireland, the Chilean Anthropological Society, and the Czechoslovakian Anthropological Society.
From 1958 to 1959, he was president of the American Anthropological Association."
The Death and Legacy of Sol Tax
Sol Tax died of a heart attack following a short illness on the 4th. January 1995, at his home in Chicago.
Sol was laid to rest at the Spring Hill Cemetery and Mausoleum, Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
Tax was survived by his wife, Gertrude Katz Tax; daughters Susan Freeman of Chicago, and Marianna Choldin of Champaign, Ill.; and three grandchildren.
Sol's published works include:
-- "Penny Capitalism: A Guatemalan Indian Economy" (1953).
-- "Evolution After Darwin," co-author and editor (1960).
-- "Horizons of Anthropology" (1963).
-- "The People vs. The System: A Dialogue in Urban Conflict" (1968).
-- "The Draft: A Handbook of Facts and Alternatives," co-author and editor (1968).

The People’s Bicentennial Commission formed by democratic socialists Jeremy Rifkin and John Rossen published a Declaration of Economic Independence in 1976 in conjunction with demonstrations and July 4, 1976 rallies in Philadelphia and Washington, D.C.
The declaration identifies corporations as the cause of economic distress in the United States and calls for a decentralized ownership of the means of production.
Rifkin was a relatively young anti-Vietnam War activist and Rossen a former member of the Communist Party from the 1930s-50s. Both took part in the founding of the New American Movement. In 1983 NAM merged with the Democratic Socialist Organizing Committee to form the Democratic Socialists of America.
Some excerpts from the declaration:
“The history of the present giant corporations is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having as their direct object an establishment of absolute tyranny over the states.”
“We therefore, the citizens of the United States of America, hereby call for the abolition of these giant institutions of tyranny and the establishment of new economic enterprises, with new laws and safeguards to provide for the equal and democratic participation of all American citizens in the economic decisions that effect the well-being of our families, our communities, and our nation.”
“In furtherance of our joint hopes and aspirations and mindful of the lessons of history, we steadfastly adhere to the general principle that a democratic republic can only exist to the extent that economic decision making is above the exercise by the people and not delegated to a few.”
“Such is the necessity which compels us to act in support of decentralized economic enterprises with ownership and control being shared jointly by the workers in the plants and by the local communities in which they operate, with similar patterns of shared representative control being exercised on a regional and national level to insure the smooth and efficient coordination of all economic operations.
“For the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection, of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor.”
