    • Dioclesian Lewis [1823-1886], commonly known as Dr. Dio Lewis, was a temperance leader who practiced homeopathy. He studied at the Harvard medical school and at the Homeopathic Hospital College of Cleveland, Ohio, and he practiced for several years in Buffalo, New York. However, because he only received a degree in homeopathic studies and no M.D., his use of the title doctor was fraudulent and his practice of medicine was illegal.
    • From 1852 till 1863 Lewis was engaged in lecturing on hygiene and physiology, and at the latter date he settled in Boston and founded the [Boston Normal Physical Training School], at which, in seven years, five hundred pupils were graduated. His influence had much to do with the establishment of the present system of physical culture in most of the institutions of learning in the United States. Wikipedia, 2008

A full-time librarian instructs the students in the use of the library and aids them in selecting materials. [18. Frederick F.

Jones, Director of Libraries for the Santa Monica City Schools, the most widespread influence of the platoon school idea is the continuation of the library program in the elementary schools. Each elementary school has a complete library unit staffed by a library clerk, all textbooks,supplementary texts, unit books, reference works, and recreational reading books being supplied by the individual schools. Each fourth, fifth, and sixth grade class spends a number of periods in the library every week, while upper grade pupils are allowed to come to the library or take books back to their rooms to supply reference materials supplementing their regular class work. [45. Personal interview with Grace W. Jones, June 9, 1951; Santa Monica, California.], 1952
      • The library clerk is responsible for the library environment and sees that the books are properly shelved. She also assists teachers in the selection and placement of reading books and materials, and is responsible for the collection of audio-visual materials as well as the scheduling of instructional films for the various classes. The library program had become fully established in the elementary schools of Santa Monica by 1933. Following the earthquake of that year, however, and the subsequent condemnation of buildings, the progress came to an abrupt halt. An attempt was made to relocate the specially equipped rooms in tents that had been erected to house the dispossessed classes; but lack of space and the restriction of materials and supplies due to the "hard times" of the depression years forced curtailment of the platoon program, 1952, 1950s, 1940s, 1934, 1933, 1930s, 1920s

    • The Lincoln School, founded in 1912, and the John Adams School, established in 1914, became full junior high schools when the state adopted legislation in 1919 making possible a 6-3-3 plan of organization. Later, as a result of the success of the junior high school program, the board approved the design and construction of four new elementary schools patterned after the platoon system, 1952
    • This further refinement of the elementary school program, together with the organization of the evening high school and adult education program and the establishment of the junior college, completed the present span of the Santa Monica City Schools as they exist today, 1952
    • The Junior High School Movement
    • The first junior high schools to appear in the United States were opened in Berkeley, California, and in Columbus, Ohio, in 1919. [5. William T. Gruhn and Karl R. Douglass, The Modern Junior High School, New York: The Ronald Press Company, 1947, p. 37.] Superintendent Frank Bunker of Berkeley and John H. Francis of Los Angeles were the first to establish junior high schools in California. In 1911, Los Angeles adopted a full 6-3-3 program, and seeing the advantage of such a program, Superintendent Rebok requested permission from the Santa Monica Board of Education to set up an intermediate school in the soon to be vacated Lincoln School Building. [6. Board Minutes, July 11, 1912.], 1952
    • Late in the nineteenth century, when the American ladder system of public education had been quite fully developed; and when, for the first time, the elementary, then the secondary, and finally the higher segments of the school systems had been placed under public control and given public support, leaders in the field began to turn critical attention upon the entire system of public instruction. As defects became increasingly obvious, plans for reorganization were formulated. These plans, however, did not get under way until 1910, a year after the junior high program in Berkeley and Columbus had begun. [7. Gruhn and Douglass, op. cit., p. 38], 1952
    • John Dewey, a pioneer in the 6-6 movement, found many to agree with him when he voiced it as his opinion that the mere acquiring of knowledge is not the proper end of elementary education. The real aim, he said, should be to organize the instincts and impulses of children into working interests and tools. [8. John Dewey and Evelyn Dewey, Schools of Tomorrow, New York: E.P. Dutton & Company, Inc., 1915, pp. 15-16.], 1952
    • Limiting the time in elementary school to six years, he believed, would tend to make clear the real issues of elementary education. Other educators strengthened Dewey's position by pointing out that the seventh grade, rather than the ninth, is the natural turning point in the pupil's life, marking aa it does the beginning of adolescence when new methods and more specific instructions are necessary.
    • Superintendent Horace M. Rebok, 1952, 1907
      • was an educator of strong convictions and courage and his
      • leadership often turned strenuous opposition into active support of the schools.
      • He so won the confidence of the public that not one of the five bond issues submitted to the voters during his administration met with defeat. [2. Pearl, Santa Monica Schools, p. 122.]
    • Educators generally had become concerned about the 8-4 organization of the school program.
    • Rebok's particular concern centered upon the fact that because of late school entrance, retardations, and high grade standards, there were pupils of sixteen to eighteen years of age still in the grammar grades.
    • He pointed out that because of these wide differences in age the smaller children were being subjected to situations often unwholesome. [3. Loc. cit.]
    • Upon the recommendation of the superintendent, supported by the backing of the women of the town, the board ordered that a study be made of age-grade distributions and possible plans of organization for the district. [4. Board Minutes, Mar. 31, 1910.]
    • The results of this study began to appear in 1912 when the board approved the establishment of the first intermediate schools.
      • John McNeeley, John Adams Junior High and Lincoln Junior High principal and Lincoln Junior High teacher of history, geography, and civics, 1952, 1919, 1910s
      • Josephine Roberts, teacher of art and English, 1952, 1923, 1910s
      • Georgia Scott, Lincoln Junior High Teacher of English and arithmetic, 1952, 1923, 1910s
    • In Santa Monica, Horace M. Rebok, city superintendent of schools, became deeply interested in the junior high movement. Upon his recommendation, John G, McNeeley was employed as principal to organize the Lincoln School in 1912. In 1914, another school , John Adams was constructed and designated as an intermediate school. The two institutions, however, offered only the seventh and eighth grade work. [9. Board Minutes, Aug. 5, 1912.] But in 1919, when the state legislature enacted a measure legalizing the junior high school program, both Lincoln and John Adams were immediately established as full junior high schools.
    • Lincoln Junior High Schools
    • The organization of an intermediate school in the old ten-room Lincoln building coincided with the removal of the high school to its new building on Prospect Hill.
    • The Lincoln School opened with an enrollment of 110 pupils, and a staff of three teachers. From September, 1912, to February, 1913, classes were held in a finished portion of the new high school building, still under construction, and for a time in the council chamber of the old city hall.
    • When the original Lincoln building had finally been vacated by the high school grades, the Lincoln Junior High School claimed the old structure. Here it remained until 1923, when a new plant designed for its use was completed. [10. Pearl, op. cit., p. 74.], 1952, 1923, 1910s
    • Departmental work was introduced with specialized teachers for each subject, 1952, 1910s
      • The first three-teacher faculty consisted of John McNeeley, principal and teacher of history, geography, and civics; Josephine Roberts, teacher of art and English; and Georgia Scott, teacher of English and arithmetic, 1952, 1923, 1910s
      • Following its move into its own building in February, 1913, the school grew and changed in many ways. Increased enrollment made it possible to offer a greater variety of courses under instruction of specialized teachers in the subject field, 1952, 1923, 1910s
      • Thus four additional teachers were employed the first semester in the new school and by June of 1914, the faculty totaled fifteen, 1952, 1923, 1910s
      • Special teachers of music, Spanish and French were the new additions to the staff, 1952, 1923, 1910s
      • There were no facilities at Lincoln for work in domestic science or shop; thus the facilities at Jefferson School, four blocks away, were used for these classes. [11. See supra, p. 136.] However, in 1922, two large bungalows were purchased and equipped for these special subjects at the Lincoln School. [12. Board Minutes, May 10, 1922.], 1952, 1923, 1910s
      • General science and a course in agriculture were added to the junior high school program in 1915. [13. Manual, Santa Monica City Schools, 1915, p. 7.], 1952, 1923, 1915, 1910s
      • A large plot of ground was set aside for use of the classes in agriculture. Here the boys and girls planted vegetables and flowers, acquiring much valuable information for application to home gardening. They harvested and sold the crops, using the money to purchase seeds and equipment, 1952, 1923, 1910s
      • A school bond issue, passed that in 1923, had provided the board with the funds necessary to purchase a site and build a new plant for the Lincoln Junior High School. Accordingly, it selected a nine-acre site between California and Washington Avenues and extending eastward from Fourteenth Street to Sixteenth, and advertised for bids on the new plant. [15. Board Minutes, Nov. 28, 1923. Among the lots acquired for the school were those set aside by Senator Jones and Colonel Baker for a young ladies' seminary. [Pearl, op. cit., p. 75.], 1952, 1923
    • The unexpected and rapid development of the city in the early 1920's indicated that a more extensive junior high school plant would be required in the northern part of Santa Monica. Indeed, by 1923, the Lincoln School, which served that area, had become so inadequate to house the number of pupils attending, that the board determined to take immediate action to remedy the situation. A school bond issue, passed that year, had provided the board with the funds necessary to purchase a site and build a new plant for the Lincoln Junior High School. Accordingly, it selected a nine-acre site between California and Washington Avenues and extending eastward from Fourteenth Street to Sixteenth, and advertised for bids on the new plant. [15. Board Minutes, Nov. 28, 1923. Among the lots acquired for the school were those set aside by Senator Jones and Colonel Baker for a young ladies' seminary. [Pearl, op. cit., p. 75.]]
    • When the Lincoln Junior HIgh School plant was completed in 1924, it represented an investment of more than $600,000. The property had been purchased for approximately $50,000 and the cost of the buildings, exclusive of equipment, was $443,000. The remainder of the overall cost was applied to landscaping, fencing, and equipment. [16. Pearl, Santa Monica City Schools, p. 75. ]
    • The new plant was considered by educators of the time to be among the most complete of its kind. Special facilities had been provided each department, and the arrangement of the buildings and the departments was such as to allow accessibility, adaptability, and quietude when needed. The open U formation of the plant permits an impressive view of the main classroom and administration building, which is a two-story, red brick structure with tile roof. The approach to this building is along open corridors which flank the sides of those adjoining it. One of these buildings contains the auditorium and music rooms, while the other houses the cafeteria and homemaking rooms. The auditorium has as a seating capacity of 700 and is fully equipped for junior high school use. The cafeteria dining room will seat 300 students and is used for school dances and other student activities. [17. Ibid., p. 76.]
    • The Lincoln Junior High School has a most complete library, both in point of books and of physical details. The reading room and reference room, separated by folding doors, together will seat approximately 140 students. A full-time librarian instructs the students in the use of the library and aids them in selecting materials. [18. Frederick F. Martin Annual Report of the the Santa Monica City Schools, 1929-30, unpublished report in files of Santa Monica Board of Education.]
    • The Santa Monica schools secured maximum benefits from the funds provided by the Works Progress Administration. John Adams Junior High School, the Roosevelt School, the Washington School, and the Grant School were provided with new plants . . . Each of the buildings was modernized and brought up to state standards. Although few changes were made in the original plans of the Lincoln Junior High School and the Madison and McKinley elementary schools, all these buildings were completely rehabilitated and made earthquake resistant. Structural reinforcement, walls filled with concrete by the Gunite process, and modernization adapted these plants to more modern school use, 1952, 1930s
    • Smaller buildings house the shop rooms and boys' locker room. The girls' physical education department is housed in a large gymnasium which provides adequate dressing rooms. The boys' physical education department needs more adequate shower and dressing room facilities, and present plans call for construction of a boys gymnasium to meet these needs. It is also planned to remodel the present boys' locker room for use as additional shop facilities, and to add a classroom wing when increased enrollments require it. At present, there are just under 1000 students at Lincoln, and it is anticipated that an expected peak enrollment of approximately 1300 students will be reached between 1956 and 1958. [19.

      • In the earliest days, it was not considered to be quite the modest thing for a woman to read and write.
      • Several small attempts were made to start schools in the pueblo. An ensign of cavalry presided at one time over a small private school. Don Antonio Coronel later started a successful private school. William Wolfskill, the Kentucky trapper and first orange grower, had a tutor for his children to which his neighbors sent their children.
      • The first thing that the gringos did was to start ringing school bells. Stephen C. Foster, one of the early mayors, was a graduate of Yale of the Class of '40; and he brought about the first public school at Second and Spring Streets then far out of town. The school nearly expired at the end of the first term, as the pueblo was perennially and continually flat broke; but William Wolfskill and Don Benito Wilson came to the rescue and subsidized it.

      • Thus, on Fitts' further advice, Superintendent Davis filed with the grand jury a complete report of the steps taken to provide earthquake-proof school buildings for the children of Santa Monica. [12. Pearl, op. cit., p. 61.], 1952, 1933, 1930s

    • And so, in November of 1933, three members of the citizens' committee-C.H. Cromer, structural engineer, Fitts, and Dr. Ellet Harding, the President of the Board of Education-met with the grand jury for further discussion of the problem at hand, 1952
    • This meeting precipitated an inspection of the Santa Monica schools by the State Department of Architecture, the first such inspection to be made by this department; and the information gleaned during this investigation guided the State in formulating its "earthquake code' for public schools.

      • from Wilmington, Delaware, was the father of the [San Pedro] harbor. He started the first stage-line to the pueblo; took a long chance and towed the first schooner into the inner harbor; promoted the first railroad between Los Angeles and the bay.
    • "I am not going to dig up the details of this old battle now. Only this: Senator Jones of Nevada really lived in Santa Monica but held office by virtue of a technical voting residence in Nevada. He had an ambitious plan to make Santa Monica a seaport and built a wharf. Collis P. Huntington, the ruthless old boss of the Southern Pacific, who held the politics of California in a strangling fist, rushed at him like a watch-dog over a tramp. He had the Jones wharf condemned as unsafe. Shipping would stay at San Pedro, what there was of it.
      • "In his day, it was the only connection between the pueblo and San Francisco . . . then the big city of the coast. Los Angeles was a contemptible, one-horse, sleepy adobe town so inconsequential that the first railroad had to be coaxed hard to build the rails into Los Angeles instead of driving straight down to San Bernardino.
      • "There was a weekly mail steamer which anchored off shore and took on passengers from the pueblo by lighter."
    • Significance relates to the loss of Corporate Control of California?
    • "[p. 223] Its real career as a harbor started only after a knock-down and drag-out fight between the Southern Pacific Railroad, whch political combat is still remembered in the halls of Congress for its ferocious quality. It was the beginning of the end of corporation control in California.

    • "[Footnote: Comstock mines during the past three years have been steadily increasing the yield from low-grade ores extracted from old workings in the upper levels; no dividends being paid, but nearly all steadily levying assessment. Of course there is no profit in the business on that basis," says the Mining and Scientific Press of December 27, 1884, "and yet most of those interested in the operations of these mines manage to get a profit out of them by ownership of the mills that crush the ore. ", 1943
    •  [p. 250] "In 1883 Senator J.P. Jones, who had been mining low-grade ores from the old stopes of the Crown Point and the Belcher for three years (as a lessee) [Jones leases his old mine (s) in 1880] was given a lease on the Con. Virginia stopes from the 1550 level upward under an agreement to pay a royalty of 50 cents a ton for every ton milled. All of the openings into the stopes had been sealed since the fire broke out in 1881 and it was stipulated that he should not begin operations until the stopes could be entered. [Footnote: "When the [1881-1883] fire burned out the millions of feet of timbers which had been packed into the stopes as the ore was removed, the whole country caved downward to fill the vacancy. The cave extended far up on the hillside back of the town leaving a long crack like an earthquake slip. So great was the pressure in the stopes that pieces of old 14-inch timbers were compressed to 6 and even 4 inches and resembled petrified wood. The town itself slid downward a little, but without damage except to brick buildings." Nevada Historical Magazine for 1911-1912.], 1943
    • [p. 285] "The Belcher and the Crown Point, controlled by the Jones interests, and the Yellow Jacket, by the Sharon interests, reduced 750,000 tons of ore averaging $12 a ton, mill returns, during the eight years following 1882, but only to the advantage of their mills. No dividends were paid, but on the contrary a few assessments were levied when the mill returns failed to pay the expense of mining and milling. Such of the other mines as could find a little ore were producing on the same basis, 1943
    • [p. 250] "Mackay was in Europe practically all of that year engrossed in the affairs of the proposed Atlantic cable, and it is evident that neither he nor Superintendent Patton had much confidence that the fills and margins of the old stopes could be mined at a profit. All of their efforts during the preceding four years had been spent on a search for a new ore body below the Con. Virginia bonanza. Development work down to and including the 2900-foot level had been a continual disappointment, and on January 1, 1885, deep mining in the North End mines was abandoned. Ten months later the water was at the 2000-foot level and still rising.

    • [p. 250] "Patton notified Jones in the spring of 1884 that he had extended a drift into the stopes o the 1200-foot level and that he could begin operations. Jones commenced in May, and up to November 1, 1885, had mined and milled 18,487 tons of ore yielding $310,109.69, or $16.70 a ton, valuing silver at $1,2929 an ounce. The discount brought the value down to $14 a ton. 1943
    • [p. 250] "As soon as it appeared that Jones was succeeding the Con. Virginia company began to extract low-grade ore below the 1550-foot level. For economy of management and operations the Con. Virginia and California companies were reincorporated on October 1, 1884, as the Consolidated California and Virginia Mining Company with a capital of 216,000 shares of the par value of $100 each. The company itself mined 19,670 tons, yielding $15.91 a ton during the first year, which gave a small profit. Mackay wanted the company to take over all of the operations and he [p. 251] persuaded Jones to surrender his lease to the company by agreeing to give him a one-third interest in the new milling company to be organized to mill the ores. James L. Flood who had taken his father's place in connection with mining affairs,, was the third partner. [p. 251 Footnotes: James C. Flood [ -1889] died in 1889 of a long and distressing illness with Bright's disease. It is said that Mackay and James L. Flood bought all of the stock in the treasury at the market price when these operations were begun.] 1943
    • [p. 251] "The Jones lease was surrendered on January 1, 1886, and the Consolidated Company entered upon ten years of very profitable mining in and about the old stopes, although the operation would have been far less successful except for the lucky discovery of three narrow sheets of good ore adjoining the old California stopes. The first one was found in the summer of 1886, the second in 1891, and the last in 1894. It happened that the first was encountered after Mackay returned to take charge while Superintendent Patton took a vacation. Fair had done little crosscutting on either side of the bonanza owing to the rush of water that followed the cutting of clay walls. In these later years the stopes were practically dry as the water had been drained by deeper workings. 1943
    •  [p. 252] ". . . Mackay and Flood . . . withdrew from the Comstock in 1895. 1943
    • [p. 252] "During the years 1884 to 1895, inclusive, the mine produced 860,661 tons of ore, yielding $16,447, 221, coin value, or $19.11 a ton, from which dividends amounting to $3,898,800 were paid, after the payment of $1 a ton royalty to the Sutro Tunnel Company. The value of the gold exceeded that of the coin value of the silver by nearly $2,000,000. The average milling charge was $6.50 per ton, with an 80 percent recovery rate. Mackay and Flood had large idle mills at that time, which enabled them to make a low milling charge . . . 1943

      • (The scope of the stopes)
      • Not less than 150,000,000 feet of timber, board measurement, had been packed into those stopes and workings-enough to build a dozen small cities-and a fire would turn the mines into a volcano. Lord tells of that danger and of the vigilance of Mackay and Fair, 1943, 1890,
      • Every ton of ore extracted from the Con. Virginia and California mines left a corresponding vacuum. That space was filled with solid 14- and 16-inch timbers, leaving only a sufficient space between the huge bulkheads for the passage of men and cars . . . The cost of these timbers at the mines is $21 per thousand feet (board feet), but even at these figures, it is much cheaper to fill with timber than to employ men to fill with waste rock, 1943, 1880s, 1870s, 1860s, 1920-1850
