Mr. Horace Kephart,
Bryson City, N. C.
Dear Mr. Kephart:
At its meeting yesterday the North Carolina Park Commission voted that you be added to the Committee on Nomenclature
to assist the National Geographic Board in naming the principal
topographic features within the Smoky Mountain National Park. Mr.
Hiden Ramsey and you and myself constitute this committee, provided
you agree to serve. I earnestly hope you will, since you know more
about it than either Ramsey or myself.
I am aware of what both you and George Masa have done
in this regard, and am most appreciative of your helpful efforts in
this particular.
Mr. Squires himself may notify you of this appointment.
He left town feeling unwell yesterday and it may slip his mind.
Therefore, I am taking this opportunity of writing you myself.
With sincere regards, I am
Very truly yours,
Verne Rhoades,
Executive Secretary.

The Spectre and Spectacle of Cannibalism in Consumerist Society
Attempting to explain the insistence of the image of the cannibal in contemporary popular culture, the author presents cannibalism as a symbolic practice perfectly representative of a proliferation of the symbolic competition on the contemporary marketplace and of other forms of ritualised interaction, where each individual represents a subjectivity that, by its nature, tends toward its own limitless expansion through the absorption of difference and exteriority. The first section of the paper explores the idea and nature of cannibalism. and various ways in which it translates into the structure of consumerist society. The second section looks at recent examples from popular entertainment in which depictions of cannibalism reveal cannibalistic mechanisms at work in commodity production and consumption.Lance Rhoades

A Generalization of a Theorem of Móricz and Rhoades on Weighted Means
No full textIn this paper,we prove a theorem which gives an equivalent formulation of summability by weighted mean methods. The result of Hardy [1] and that of Móricz and Rhoades [2] are special cases of this theorem. In this context, it is important to note that the result of Móricz and Rhoades is valid even without the assumption as
Nowe spojrzenie na planowanie architektury mieszkaniowej w afryce subsaharyjskiej
No full textThe author shares his reflections on state of art in housing and urban planning, deficiencies, expectations and possibilities in the Sahel region of Africa. He notices, that the housing problem in Africa is one of the challenges, which should be solved in order to recover life dignity of African people and secure their rights to traditional family life in acceptable conditions. The paper describes the studies on the typical dispersed urban structures and the need to foster this type of settlement structure and proposals of introduction of new on light steel frame housing system in the area of Sahel, combining the traditional way of building houses with modern technology. The particularly analysed case, is the housing problem in the Republic of Chad. The author presents the basic discussion on this topic and his architectural proposals. Unfortunately, the gap between the needs and the financial feasibility of housing construction in this area, makes this project already at the starting point extremely difficult to be realized without external subventions.Problem mieszkaniowy w Afryce jest jednym z wyzwań, które należy rozwiązać, aby Afrykanie mogli odzyskać godność życiową i zabezpieczyć swoje prawa do tradycyjnego życia rodzinnego w akceptowalnych warunkach. W artykule opisano badania nad typowymi rozproszonymi strukturami miejskimi i potrzebą wspierania tego typu struktur osadniczych oraz propozycji wprowadzenia nowego systemu konstrukcji domów, opartym na lekkim szkielecie stalowym, łączącym tradycyjny sposób budowania domów z nowoczesną technologią. Przypadkiem szczególnie analizowanym jest problem mieszkaniowy w Republice Czadu. Autor przedstawia podstawową dyskusję na ten temat i swoje propozycje architektoniczne. Niestety luka między potrzebami mieszkaniowymi w Czadzie a finansową wykonalnością budownictwa mieszkaniowego w tym obszarze sprawia, że projekt ten, już w punkcie wyjścia, jest niezwykle trudny do realizacji bez uzyskania zewnętrznych dotacji
