    The nature and tendency of balls : seriously and candidly considered, in two sermons, preached in Medway, the first, December 21: the second, December 28, 1818

    Rare Books

    This book consists of two sermons delivered by Jacob Ide (1785-1880), pastor of the Second Church in Medway during December 1818. In these sermons, the pastor declares that balls are too expensive, "excite very ardent feeling," and lead to an "inordinate love of company" resulting in idleness. The second sermon is devoted to a common theme in nineteenth-century antidance literature, that dancing and attending balls are contrary to Scripture. Ide's sermons were reprinted in 1859

    Visual Materials

    One sample magazine entitled Design, Vol. 34, No. 1, edited by Felix Payant, published by Keramic Studio Publishing Co., Syracuse, New York, May 1932. This 12-page illustrated issue is a publisher's sample: it contains select pages from previous issues and is smaller than a standard issue. The subtitle reads: "A monthly magazine devoted to the decorative arts." The inside of the front cover contains a statement addressed to art teachers, and the inside of the back cover bears an advertisement for a portfolio of plates meant to be used for reference purposes. Laid into this sample issue are three publisher's advertisements (flyers) for the magazine: one promoting the sale of portfolios which feature international design; one advertising a decorative arts portfolio; and the third is a letter to Design readers with new subscription rates.
