This issue features a piece by Herbert Arntson (1911-1982), who went on to become an award-winning author of juvenile historical novels set in the pioneer milieu of Oregon and Washington. He served on the faculty of Washington State University, 1946-1974, where he was head of the creative writing program. (His papers are collected at the University of Oregon Libraries Special Collections). One of the longer prose pieces is a story titled, ''The Class Struggle in Yelm, Washington,'' by James Docherty. It's a quirky tale that centers on a sketchy communist barber and a pro-fascist editor of a local newspaper. This issue also includes a book review by Francis Galbraith, who became the U.S. Ambassador to Singapore, 1966-1969, and Indonesia, 1969-1974. (The other brief book reviews cover Aldous Huxley and Charles Erskine Scott Wood). Dorothy Belle Harriss (m. Cairnes) contributes a poem. In January 1937, she became the first woman to serve as President of the University of Puget Sound Student Body. The cover was done by Maurita Shank (m. Runions), president of the C.P.S. Art Club.

Paperback. Condición: New. Brand new softcover book! ; From the arrival of the first Mormon missionaries in New Zealand in 1854 until stakehood and the dedication of the Hamilton New Zealand Temple in 1958, Tiki and Temple tells the enthralling story of Mormonism's encounter with the genuinely different but surprisingly harmonious Maori culture.Mormon interest in the Maori can be documented to 1832, soon after Joseph Smith organized the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in America. Under his successor Brigham Young, Mormon missionaries arrived in New Zealand in 1854, but another three decades passed before they began sustained proselytising among the Maori people--living in Maori pa, eating eels and potatoes with their fingers from communal dishes, learning to speak the language, and establishing schools. They grew to love--and were loved by--their Maori converts, whose numbers mushroomed until by 1898, when the Australasian Mission was divided, the New Zealand Mission was ten times larger than the parent Australian Mission.The New Zealand Mission of the Mormon Church was virtually two missions --one to the English-speaking immigrants and their descendants, and one to the tangata whenua-- "people of the land." The difficulties this dichotomy caused, as both leaders and converts struggled with cultural differences and their isolation from Church headquarters, make a fascinating story. Drawing on hitherto untapped sources, including missionary journals and letters and government documents, this absorbing book is the fullest narrative available of Mormonism's flourishing in New Zealand.Although written primarily for a Latter-day Saint audience, this book fills a gap for anyone interested in an accurate and coherent account of the growth of Mormonism in New Zealand. ; 0.74 x 9.02 x 5.98 Inches; 354 pages.
