Description
Dallas, Texas: National Association of Pro America, 1940. Fine.. A 1930s pamphlet promoting the Dallas Chapter of the "Pro-America", a "national volunteer educational organization for women, dedicated to the preservation of the Constitution ... It includes in its membership Republicans, Constitutional Democrats and women who have never before been interested in government" (cover).

The umbrella organization was founded in 1933 by Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt. Printed bifolium (6.25" by 3.5"), with red white and blue ribbon with organization name on cover. Principles - Believes in the founding fathers, individual freedom and individual responsibility as God given rights, the need for spiritual guidance and much more.

Description
Hartford, CT: Earth Closet Co., 1870. Very good. Small broadside, n. d. (1870s - 1880s); 8 1/4 x 5 1/4; off-white stock, printed in black and illustrated with a small engraving; a small spot to lower left corner, else minor wear - in very good or better condition. Published by its American manufacturer, the advertisement and price list represented Moule's Patent Earth Closet - the first, revolutionary, composting, dry toilet system, invented and patented in 1860 by the Reverend Henry Moule (1801 - 1880). A Victorian clergyman in the Church of England, Moule was motivated by the widespread cholera outbreaks of the mid-19th century (especially the one during the summer of 1858, the latter called the "Great Stink") to find a more sanitary solution to human waste. Disapproving of the earlier water-based systems, for their pollution of the rivers and the sea, Moule came up with a design for a dry toilet, resembling a wooden chair with a toilet seat and a metal bucket underneath, which used dry earth or peat to cover the waste, to suppress the odor, and to initiate the composting process. It contained a hopper for storing the dry material and a lever to release it into a bucket beneath the seat. When full, the bucket's contents were used as fertilizer in the field or the garden. The current price list, issued by the Earth Closet Company - American manufacturers of Moule's toilet, included descriptions and prices for the various commodes (mixed wood, walnut, etc.), fixtures, etc.
