Evangeline Booth
So what happened on the day that Elsie posted the card to her mother?
Well, on the 3rd. September 1934, Evangeline Booth was elected General of The Salvation Army.
Evangeline Cory Booth, who was born on the 25th. December 1865, was a British evangelist, and the fourth General of The Salvation Army from 1934 to 1939. She was the first woman to hold the post.
-- Evangeline Booth - The Early Years
Evangeline was born in South Hackney, London. She was the seventh of eight children born to William Booth and Catherine Mumford, who had earlier in the year founded The Christian Mission, which became The Salvation Army in 1878.
Catherine Booth had recently read Uncle Tom's Cabin, and wanted to name her baby 'Evangeline', but William Booth did not like the name, and wrote 'Evelyne' on the birth certificate.
Years later, while in the United States, Evelyne was persuaded by Frances Willard, founder of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union, to adopt the name 'Evangeline' as being more dignified and more befitting the commander of The Salvation Army in America.
-- Evangeline Booth and The Salvation Army
At 15 she was a Sergeant selling the Army's paper The War Cry in the slums of east London.
In 1887, at 21 years of age, she became the officer of the corps in Marylebone, where there was very strong opposition to The Salvation Army. Wherever trouble threatened, General Booth's solution was invariably the same: 'Send Eva!'.
Booth was appointed as Field Commissioner throughout Great Britain from 1888 to 1891, courageously facing riotous crowds.
From 1891 until 1896 she was in charge of Officer Training. In 1896 an American break-away group led by her brother Ballington Booth and his wife Maud attempted to tempt American Salvationists away from The Salvation Army and into a rival group called Volunteers of America.
In response General Booth sent Evangeline to New York. When she arrived the doors to Salvation Army headquarters on 14th. Street had been locked against her.
Not to be deterred, she mounted the fire escape and climbed through a rear window. The dissidents hissed and booed until she literally wrapped herself in an available American flag and challenged:
"Hiss that, if you dare."
In the stunned silence she played her concertina and sang "Over Jordan without Fearing." Ballington's rebellion was quelled.
She was appointed temporary Territorial Commander of the United States, then Territorial Commander of Canada. In 1904 she returned as Commander of the United States, and held this position until 1934.
In the aftermath of the 1906 San Francisco earthquake, she led a mass meeting in Union Square, New York, and raised over $12,000 for Salvation Army relief work among the victims of the disaster. During this period she became a US citizen.
-- Evangeline Booth and the Great War
In August 1917, despite the differences between Commander Evangeline Booth and US General Pershing, commander of the American Expeditionary Force (AEF), the first of 250 Salvationists left New York for the front line of the Great War in France.
They soon won the confidence of the troops with their cheerful brand of 'seven-days-a-week' Christianity. As tributes poured in, Evangeline protested:
"The Salvation Army has had no new
success; we have only done an old
thing in an old way."
The American people disagreed, and subscribed an unprecedented $13 million in order to clear debts incurred by The Army. These debts arose through its provision of canteens, hostels, and rest rooms during the war, and afterwards on the provision of care and accommodation for the returning forces.
For her work in support of the AEF, Booth was awarded the Distinguished Service Medal by the U.S. Army. Booth was one of only a very few civilian women to be so honored for service during the Great War.
-- Evangeline Booth and her Dog Mazie
In 1926, Booth recounted a story in which her dog "Mazie" saved her life by fetching others in her household to give her mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
-- General Bramwell Booth
In 1927, Booth visited her brother, General Bramwell Booth, with a memorandum which set to change the way in which The Salvation Army appointed its General.
At first Bramwell refused to speak with Evangeline, and forced communication through his speech writer, Commissioner Cornelius Obadiah Phelps.
After finally agreeing to meet, Bramwell was not convinced; he was adamant that he would appoint his successor, just as his father had done before him.
However in January 1929, the first High Council of The Salvation Army decided otherwise, and since then the General has been elected by the High Council, in line with Evangeline Booth's original proposal.
-- Evangeline Booth as Fourth General
Evangeline Booth was elected General by the second High Council in 1934. She brought to the Generalship experience in many areas of The Army's work, but never lost the zeal and enthusiasm of the early years.
Dubbed 'The Musician General' by Salvation Army papers of the time, she took great interest in the soul-winning activities of the musical sections of The Salvation Army.
Like her father, the Founder, Evangeline extensively travelled the world. After her election as General she toured Great Britain, and in 1935 India, Ceylon, Australia, New Zealand, Hawaii and the United States; then, immediately upon her return, Norway and Sweden.
Later in 1935 she undertook a 'motorcade' - the entire East Coast of England up to Darlington, then several Western Counties and the Thames Valley.
The following year she went on another motorcade from Land's End to John o' Groats, and visited Canada, the United States and France, even though by this time she was over seventy years old.
The Salvation Army's work greatly prospered during Evangeline Booth's leadership, with Salvation Army activities being commenced in Singapore, Algeria, Egypt, French Equatorial Africa, the Philippines, Mexico, and Malaya.
-- Evangeline Booth - The Later Years
Her term of office ended on the 31st. October 1939 when Commissioner George Lyndon Carpenter was elected as the Army's fifth General.
Towards the end of November 1939, Evangeline left Great Britain for her home in up-state New York, and spent the remaining years of her life there.
--The Death and Legacy of Evangeline Booth
General Evangeline Booth lived in Hartsdale, New York, until her death on the 17th. July 1950 at the age of 84 from arteriosclerosis.
She was laid to rest in Kensico Cemetery, Valhalla, Mount Pleasant, New York.
Her home, the Evangeline Booth House, now known as St. Andrew's Episcopal Church, was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2011.
She wrote several books, including Toward a Better World and Songs of the Evangel.
The Salvation Army Evangeline Booth College in Atlanta, Georgia is named after her, as is The Evangeline Booth Lodge in Chicago which is:
".... a haven for families and individuals
suddenly homeless because of eviction,
disasters such as a fire or flood, loss of
utilities, domestic violence, being
stranded while traveling, or other crises."
Irvine Sellar
The 3rd. September 1934 also marked the birth in London of Irvine Sellar.
Irvine Gerald Sellar was an English fashion retailer, and later property developer. He was the founder of the Sellar Property Group, and the developer of The Shard, which is Europe's tallest building.
-- Irvine Sellar - The Early Years
Irvine worked with his father on markets in and around the East End of London. His family was Jewish, and he grew up in Southgate, London.
Sellar left school at 16 and studied accounting, but decided to start working instead.
Having worked as a market trader, Sellar opened his first shop in St Albans. A second shop followed in Soho's Wardour Street in 1964.
The following year, along with his wife Elizabeth, a third shop was opened on Carnaby Street, a parade that became a world-wide Mecca for fashion, helping to define London's swinging 60's.
Meanwhile, Irvine founded the first unisex fashion company in the United Kingdom, Mates by Irvine Sellars. The company later became Great Britain’s second-biggest fashion chain with 90 shops in 1981. That year, he sold it to a South African investor.
Sellar founded Ford Sellar Morris, a property company listed on the London Stock Exchange. Sellar borrowed £111m in 1989 and, because of a property downturn in 1991, the company went bankrupt in 1991-92, when Sellar lost £30 million.
-- Irvine Sellar and The Shard
Sellar founded the Sellar Property Group. He acquired the headquarters of PwC in London Bridge in 1998. That year, he acquired the site of what would later become The Shard.
Despite facing deep scepticism from the industry when the plans were unveiled, construction of the 1,016 ft-tall building finally got underway in 2008 following Irvine's rather unlikely partnership with the celebrated Italian architect Renzo Piano.
With an 80% input from Qatari investors, Sellar completed the construction of The Shard in July 2012.
-- Irvine Sellar's Subsequent Investments
Irvine subsequently developed buildings near Paddington Station. In December 2016, his plan to develop the 19-storey Paddington Cube for £775 million was approved by Westminster City Council.
-- Irvine Sellar's Personal Life and Death
With his wife Elizabeth, Sellar had two sons, James, who went on to serve as chairman of SPG, and Paul, a playwright, as well as a daughter, Caroline.
In 2015, Irvine and James Sellar had an estimated joint wealth of GBP £220 million. Sellar was a black belt in judo, drove a Rolls-Royce and smoked cigars.
Irvine Sellar died at the age of 82 on the 26th. February 2017.
Manny Silverman, former managing director of Moss Bros, told Drapers magazine that Sellar was one of a rare breed:
“He’d grown up in the retail industry
selling clothes, or anything that was
going.
The great thing about him, no matter
how big he got, how great his reputation –
if he thought you had something serious
or sensible to say, he would see you.
And by having that almost open door
policy, a lot of opportunities came his
way.”
Consultant Marshall Lester added:
“I was making faded denim jeans at
the time he ran Mates, and he was a
customer. He was a very shrewd guy.
Mates was one of those important
boutique retailers at the time: if you
wanted to do volume business, you
wanted him in your portfolio of
customers.”

Artist Bio: Danny Lyon was born in Brooklyn in 1942. He is a photographer and a filmmaker, neither of which he received any official schooling for. He graduated from the University of Chicago with a history degree in 1963. His first published photographs were for the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee, one of the largest civil rights groups in the 1960’s. After this, he began publishing his own books. For his first book, Bikeriders, he followed around biker gangs and took photos of them, even becoming a member of the Chicago Outlaw Motorcycle Club. In all his works, he becomes immersed in the subject. For perhaps his most famous work, Conversations With the Dead, he photographed the grim realities of prison life in the United States, befriending many of the prisoners along the way. His most recent project, Indian Nations, was published in 2001. Lyon received the Guggenheim for photography in 1969. He sums up his thoughts on photography as such: “Photography works best when it does what it is uniquely qualified to do as a medium: reproduce the real world.”
Caption: This photograph follows a long line of Danny Lyon documentary style photographs. It is part of his most recent collection, Indian Nations, in which he visited nineteen different Indian Reservations in the Western United States and took photographs of the people and landscapes there. If we follow along with his idea of photography, using it to reproduce the real world, then Lyon certainly saw the Native American world as a bleak one, and chose to show it as such with this photograph. The expression on the man’s face is downtrodden, as he stares off into the distance. However, it is the inclusion of the fence right behind him that separates this image. The way it is composed, it is difficult to tell whether the man put up the fence to keep something in, or if somebody else put it up to keep him out. His arm is grabbing the bars of the fence much as a prisoner might grab the bars of his prison cell. The image can be looked at as symbolic of the Native American’s ongoing struggle to regain their freedom, still stuck behind the bars of the society that we imposed on them hundreds of years ago.
Last Wednesday I couldn't get to work due to the snow, so I met my Wife from work and spotted the Police fencing off the front of M&S in Queensway Crawley Town Centre. On closer inspection it appeared that a few of the coping stones on the roof had fallen off.
When I got home I emailed the photo and details to a local paper. This week they published this article and included my photo 8-)

(Includes 400D-10308-R)
One of my favorite shots aboard IOWA, taken in 2015 on Father's Day. Totally candid. The kids were having a great time, and just as I released the shutter the little boy gleefully waved to a passing boat! If you look thru this album, you will see it used a lot, in many ways. This was for the upcoming "Family Fun Week" for the neighborhood, aboard the Battleship IOWA Museum!
The Postcard
A postally unused Ed. d'Art Guy carte postale that was published by André Leconte of 38, Rue Ste.-Croix-de-la-Bretonnerie, Paris.
The image is a glossy real photograph, and the card, which has a divided back, was printed in France.
Tour Saint-Jacques
The Tour Saint-Jacques is a monument located in the 4th. arrondissement of Paris at the intersection of Rue de Rivoli with Rue Nicolas Flamel.
This 52-metre (171 ft) Flamboyant Gothic tower is all that remains of the former 16th.-century Church of Saint-Jacques-de-la-Boucherie ("Saint James of the Butchers"), which was demolished in 1797, during the French Revolution, leaving only the tower.
The Way of St. James
The tower's rich decoration reflects the wealth of its patrons, the wholesale butchers of the nearby Les Halles market. The masons in charge were Jean de Felin, Julien Ménart and Jean de Revier. It was built in 1509 to 1523, during the reign of King Francis I.
With a dedication to Saint James the Greater, the ancient church and its landmark tower welcomed pilgrims setting out on the road that led to Tours and headed for the Way of St. James, which led to the major pilgrimage destination of Santiago de Compostela.
A relic of the saint was preserved in the church. The tower was listed in 1998 as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO as one of the sites and structures marking the Chemins de Compostelle, the pilgrimage routes in France that led like tributaries of a great stream headed towards Santiago in the northwest of Spain.
Tour Saint-Jacques in the Nineteenth century
The church, with the exception of the tower, was demolished in 1793. Preservation of the tower was a condition of the contract by which the church was bought for the value of its building materials. In 1824 it was used as a shot tower to make small shot.
The tower was re-purchased by the City of Paris in 1836 and declared a Monument Historique in 1862. A statue of Saint Jacques was installed on the top of the tower during the 19th. century. A meteorological laboratory is also installed at the top of the tower.
During the Second Empire, the architect Théodore Ballu restored the tower, placing it on a pedestal and designing a small city park around it. This coincided with the construction of the Rue de Rivoli and the Avenue Victoria nearby, requiring huge quantities of earth to be removed to ensure the Rue de Rivoli had a smooth flat path.
The pedestal allowed the tower to retain its original elevation. Nowadays, the change in ground level can best be appreciated in Rue St.-Bon, just northeast of the tower, where a staircase leads up to the original street level at Rue de la Verrerie.
A statue of Blaise Pascal is located at the base of the tower, commemorating his experiments on atmospheric pressure, though it is debated whether they were performed here or at the church of Saint-Jacques-du-Haut-Pas.
The tower inspired Alexandre Dumas to write the play La Tour Saint-Jacques-de-la-Boucherie in 1856.
Nicolas Flamel, a patron of the church, was buried under its floor.
Modern Restoration of the Tower
The tower was surrounded by scaffolding and obscured by sheeting for some years as surveyors investigated the condition of the stone. Recent findings show that most of the stone and its ornamentation originates from the late-medieval era of the tower's construction, and was not added by the 19th.-century restorers.
Unfortunately, the survey also revealed serious cracking which needed to be addressed. The top three quarters of sheeting were taken down in March 2008, revealing a renovated upper section of the tower. From October 2008 to February 2009, the scaffolds and sheeting were completely removed, and the surrounding park's landscaping was restored. Finally, on the 18th. April 2009, the park was re-opened to the public.

C’è soul, c’è jazz, c’è funk e c’è energia pura… Torna al Blue Note la band pioniera dell’ Acid Jazz presentanso l’ultimo album, “Surreal”, nel più brillante stile Incognito.
Formatisi nel 1979 la band capitanata dal carismatico Jean-Paul “Bluey” Maunick (chitarrista, anima e mente del gruppo) ha pubblicato, in 35 anni di carriera, 15 album in studio e ha visto alternarsi negli anni decine e decine di musicisti e cantanti, sempre di altissimo valore.
Negli anni gli Incognito hanno mantenuto fede alla loro idea musicale, ovvero quella di un sound non solo da ballare ma anche da ascoltare, che potesse conciliare la raffinatezza del jazz con il calore e la sensualità sonora del soul-funk. Musica coinvolgente, arrangiamenti ineccepibili ricchi di fiati e percussioni e un groove irresistibile sempre più orientato al contemporany R&B.
