Title A name given to the resource Ad Encouraging Women Description An account of the resource I found this article while I was looking for sources for my Collections Project and I thought it provided the perfected summary of how women's roles changed in society based on their realization of how their health was being compromised. This article discusses how they escape the clothing that kept them fro being healthy involved women to wearing looser petticoats and playing significant roles in society. The future women in this article are praised because they offer educated, and responsible Christian view on different aspects of society, which is why this article makes it seem they are more competent than men. "The woman of the future will have a strong mind and a sound body, and she will be ready to do cheerfully and readily whatever may be asked of her," which is ironic because the women are suppose to be free of duties to other people, but they still were expected to do whatever people told them to do.

Was Martin Dressler a good businessman or was his head in the clouds. One of largest and most prominent hotels in NYC during the gilded age was the Waldorf-Astoria. This hotel was a very impressive building for the time and Dressler wanted to make his hotel over twice as impressive. The Waldorf was a 13 stories high with various amenities. Dressler wanted his hotel the Grand Cosmo to be 30 stories with all sorts of gardens and restaurants. In relation to the Waldorf, this is a mammoth task. This demonstrates how Martin was unrealistic in his expectations. To be able to beat out the finest and biggest hotels is a huge task and Martin was unrealistic in the way that he would do that.

Title A name given to the resource Saloon in the Slums Description An account of the resource "The open mouth of a saloon called seductively to passengers to enter and annihilate sorrow or create rage" (Crane, 39). This photo almost directly correlates with this image because it shows how the poor of the 1890s were controlled by saloons due to alcoholism and it being one of the only things the poor did as amusement. Crane describes how this saloon "seductively" called out to the passengers giving the reader the idea that the saloon acted as a living, important thing in the lives of the poor. It is also interesting to note that it looks as if everyone is annihilating "sorrow" or creating "rage".

Title A name given to the resource Lady America Opens the Gates Description An account of the resource On the cover of this issue of The Jewish Immigrant is depicting Lady Liberty standing in front of the Gates to the United States. She is wearing a cap that has the word “America” written on it in Yiddish. This picture is representative of the mass amounts of Jewish immigrants that came to the United States during the 1890’s through the 1920’s to escape persecution. Lady Liberty is representative of freedom for these Jewish Immigrants. She is also holding a key in her hand which represents that the United States is the key for most of the immigrants seeking freedom and a new life. Below each side of the gate there are two passages in Hebrew. One reads Open the gates of righteousness for me" and the other reads "Open the gates and let a righteous nation enter.” This symbolizes that The United States was the new land for European Jews during this time and that mass amounts of Jewish immigrants thought the same.

Title A name given to the resource Chaotic Streets Description An account of the resource "Above the muffled roar of conversation, the dismal wailing of babies at night, the thumping of feet in unseen corridors and rooms, mingled with the sound of varied hoarse shoutings in the street and the rattling of wheels over cobbles, they hear the scream of the child and the roars of the mother die away to a feeble moaning and a subdued bass muttering" (Crane, 11) I believe that this image that Jacob Riis took directly correlates with this quote because it shows how the slums had a chaotic and out in the open look to it. During the time, the poor were forced to live in over-packed tenements that were huddled together extremely close to each other on the street. Due to this, the poor held little to no privacy during personal affairs allowing for the rest of the people on that street to watch people struggle in amusement. This quote and picture also give off the vibe that because the slums were so overpopulated that the noises were unending and that there was always something dark happening around the corner. Crane uses the words "babies" a lot in this quote to show the reader that this happened to any and all ages because the environment treats all the same.

Title A name given to the resource Long Live the Land of the Free Description An account of the resource In this song book by Solomon Smulewitz, Long Live the Land of the Free, was a song to represent the loyalty of which Jewish immigrants had towards the United States. This song was popular for recent arriving Jewish immigrants in the United States during the turn of the twentieth century. This song opened with "To express loyalty with every/fibre of one's being, to/this Land of Freedom, is the/sacred duty of every Jew." This is how many Jews felt during this time. After coming to the United States many Jew felt love and loyalty towards America and want to show their appreciation, this song was how they were able to. This is not the only song written by this composer. There were many others, all of which represented a different figure in United States history. This one had the Statue of Liberty on the cover. The loyalty that these songs portray are similar to the kind of love and respect that Jake had for the United States. Once he arrived here he changed as a man. He wanted to be everything that America represented and he was more loyal to this country than he was towards his own family.

One of the first was the Flatiron Building which when built was the tallest building at 22 stories. One of the major innovations with the building was the use of steel in the building’s construction. This not only allowed the building to grow higher, but it helped to make it more fire resistant that typical buildings of the day. With the new building process, the Flatiron Building was built much faster than typical buildings of the day. Although its design and location are a bit unusual, the building is still a major tourist attraction to this day.

Title A name given to the resource The Metropolitan Museum of Art Description An account of the resource This article from Harper' s New Monthly Magazine focuses on the New York Metropolitan Museum of Art. The article begins by describing the origins of the Museum which began on fifth avenue in 1869. The museum originally opened with nothing but a gallery dedicated to paintings. Which at first had been criticised for having some below average paintings included, though the magazine defended this saying that the the same was true of many museums, even those of Europe. European visitors to the museum stated that it was up to the standards of those of Europe and in some cases beyond them. In 1873 the Museum began to look for works of art from the homes of New York that they could display in a new building near sixth avenue. This became the greatest early success of the museum as a collection of porcelain and pottery came together. This collection resulted in demands for such items to be sold in the stores of New York and lead to New York as being one of the best places in the world to find such items, which obviously had positive economic implications. With this the museum began to expand again and a new building was commissioned in central park, pictured on the first page, that would be the new home of the museum. By this time the museum had begun to compete with the very best of Europe. The second half of the article is dedicated to describing the best works that can be found in the museum, and throughout the whole article images of pieces of art are displayed.

Title A name given to the resource Nikola Tesla Description An account of the resource This article by Thomas Martin from the February 1894 publication of The Century focuses on Nikola Tesla. Tesla is often overshadowed by Thomas Edison for their respective works on electricity. However, Edison essentially cheated Tesla out of credit and payment for some of his inventions. Even so Tesla's inventions are the ones that are really more influential today, despite all the credit that seems to go to Edison. Primarily it is the use of Tesla's alternating current that build the electrical infrastructure of today by allowing the transmission of power over great distances and through much smaller wires. Had Edison's direct current been used a city would require a power station every few city blocks, and each small town would need its own. The article introduces Tesla and gives a description of his accomplishments so far, then going on to give a short summary of his life and research.

Title A name given to the resource Wistaria Description An account of the resource The reason "Wistaria is often times used at weddings and as a symbol of marriage is because of the meaning of the word. Like the wistaria clings to buildings, the married couple clings to each other. However, Mrs. Mantsey lost her husband and has no one to cling to. Mrs. Mantsey was married but her husband died seventeen years before the story took place. Knowing this, the sentence, "Soon the wistaria would bloom, then the horse-chestnut; but not for her" is pretty sad. The use of this flower and the previous sentence makes Mrs. Mantsey a much more tragic character. Once a married women, she now sits alone with no real purpose or someone to care for. Maybe the Wistaria once did bloom for her, but no longer.

Title A name given to the resource The New Negro Subject The topic of the resource The Harlem Renaissance Description An account of the resource Harlem Renaissance what was painted by a man named Aaron Douglas. The name of the piece was created for the book The New Negro by Alain Locke. The art work is meant to depict different parts of Afro-American history. You see on the left people picking cotton in a field and as the painting moves right, it changes to what seem to be the Harlem Renaissance, which is characterized by the sillottes of jazz players and dancing people. The New Negro as we learned was a way of describing the new culture that was rising, one that did not stand for the Jim Crow laws of the south or of segregation.
