To many rural Iowans, the stock market crash on New Yorks Wall Street in October 1929 seemed an event far removed from their lives, even though the effects of the crash became all too real throughout the state. From 1929 to 1933, the enthusiastic faith that most Iowans had in Iowan President Herbert Hoover was transformed into bitter disappointment with the federal government. As a result, Iowans directly questioned their leadership at the state, county, and community levels with a renewed spirit to salvage family farms, demonstrating the uniqueness of Iowas rural life. Beginning with an overview of the state during 1929, Lisa L. Ossian describes Iowas particular rural dilemmas, evoking, through anecdotes and examples, the economic, nutritional, familial, cultural, industrial, criminal, legal, and political challenges that engaged the people of the state. The following chapters analyze life during the early Depression: new prescriptions for childrens health, creative housekeeping to stretch resources, the use of farm playlets to communicate new information creatively and memorably, the demise of the soft coal mining industry, increased violence within the landscape, and the movement to end Prohibition.the challenges faced in the early Great Depression years between 1929 and 1933 encouraged resourcefulness rather than passivity, creativity rather than resignation, and community rather than hopelessness. Of particular interest is the role of women within the rural landscape, as much of the increased daily work fell to farm women during this time. While the women addressed this work simply as making do, Ossian shows that their resourcefulness entailed complex planning essential for families emotional and physical health.ossians epilogue takes readers into the Iowa of today, dominated by industrial agriculture, and asks the reader to consider if this model that stemmed from Depression-era innovation is sustainable. Her rich rural history not only helps readers understand the particular forces at work that shaped the social and physical landscape of the past but also traces how these landscapes have continued in various forms for almost eighty years into this century.

Stick Welding 101: How To Strike an Arc

By


Description given on Youtube:
All you need to know to get your electrodes started stick welding. This video is for everyone who’s asked for it, hope it helps!! 🙂

Now, everything in this video assumes you’re running on the right amperage and polarity. 6010 and 7018 do NOT run well on AC, especially if you’re new. The 7018 will run, just not as well as it will on DC. 6010 will NOT run period.

If you’re trying this and still having problems, try turning up your amperage some. 1/8″ electrodes run from the 90 amp range (6010/6011) up to 140ish amps (7018) just depending upon a number of other factors. I know this is vague, but if you’re trying to start 1/8″ 6013 or something at like 70 amps, we’ve found your first problem.

Happy welding! 🙂

The flamboyantly camp ‘Entwistle’ in Australian film “Dad and Dave Come to Town” (1938)

By


Description given on Youtube:
The character ‘Entwistle’, played by actor Alec Kellaway, in the “Dad & Dave” series of movies was one of the first positive portrayals of an effeminate man in Australian cinema. “Dad and Dave Come to Town” was Kellaway’s debut as the shop assistant / floorwalker ‘Entwistle’.

In this clip, Dad (Bert Bailey) and Dave (Fred MacDonald) arrive at Cecille’s dress shop to inspect their new inheritance. After some confusion with the mannequins, they meet the floorwalker, Mr Entwhistle, a flamboyantly effeminate man who shows them around. Dave mistakes one of the models, Myrtle (Muriel Flood), for a mannequin, but he likes what he sees.

The homosexual ‘sissy’ was a relatively common stereotype in American comedies of the 1930s, although in somewhat more disguised form. They were often prissy Englishmen, rather than transparently gay (as in some of the Fred Astaire films). There was a similar tradition of effeminate Englishmen in Australian comedy, going back to the silent era, but Alec Kellaway’s performance here set a new benchmark. The humour in this film is more openly ribald than in any earlier Cinesound film, and the depiction of Entwhistle appears to be part of that new boldness on Ken Hall’s part. Entwhistle was certainly popular, because Kellaway played him again in Dad Rudd, MP (1940), the last of the Dad and Dave films, two years later.

The film is a ‘Dad and Dave’ comedy in which Dad unexpectedly inherits a woman’s fashion store in the city, and the family moves there to take charge but find it hard to adapt to city life. Climax is a spectacular fashion show which is a huge success and allows Dad to return to the farm. Commercially successful in Australia and Britain. It was released in England as “The Rudd Family Come to Town”, and was the first Australian film to screen in a cinema in the West End.
