"Atlanta this is listener funded 90.1 W ABE good afternoon I'm Jim burris Thanks for listening to all things considered right now in the city we have clear skies 64° Residents of Atlanta's Buckhead community will not be voting this year on whether to separate and form its own city That's after Republican House speaker David ralston said today the issue won't move forward during this year's General Assembly session Now that decision comes less than 24 hours after lieutenant governor Jeff Duncan also said it's time to kill the bill Without their support it has no chance of passing a busy Friday under the gold dome no doubt and politics reporter Rio valley is with us from the capital with more Welcome Raoul You know Jim when passing a $30 billion state budget is like topic three or four in this building you know what kind of day we've had today You've been working We'll just say that Did we see this coming I think we first saw this coming even before this legislative session started You know when speaker ralston raised questions about precedent Lieutenant governor Duncan had pointed questions about what would happen with Atlanta public school students who live in Buckhead what would happen with city bonds But in terms of what's really what's happened here in the past 48 hours it really started with lieutenant governor Jeff Duncan yesterday you know we had the interview here on WAB just saying hey we're running out of time B I have not gotten the answers to those questions Along with the answers of what crime really be solved just by creating a new city And then we heard from the speaker as I mentioned the state budget was on the House floor today and the speaker traditionally speaks to reporters right after that and we asked them about Buckhead and he made he made his comments that got all of our attention about Buckhead And he linked it to Atlanta's crime rate Let's take a listen The problem of how we got here is not solved that being the crime problem I'm hopeful that mayor Dickens recognizes the importance of the problem and I'm inclined to believe that he does but you know we'll be back next year if things haven't changed a lot So I'm looking for some forceful vigorous action on the part of the city to tackle that problem He really put the ball in Atlanta mayor in the Atlanta mayor's court Absolutely And that's been the main topic for leading stock lawmakers You know the governor mentioned the crime Jeff Duncan the lieutenant governors mentioned crime and the speakers mentioned and the speakers talked about crime that's been involving state lawmakers down here whether it's car break ins or other break ins Crime has kind of been the focus when they're talking about Atlanta and where they're talking about Buckhead And that's why I kind of laid down that marker today of hey let's get things cleaned up In the Atlanta area or we may be bringing this we as lawmakers speaking for the house and bring that back And this is what lieutenant governor Duncan pointed to yesterday as you reported that there's no connection though that how breaking away into a separate city would make that area safer off the bat somehow And that's what lieutenant governor Duncan's been focusing on He's been saying explain to me having a new police force Does that solve it You know the answer from bucket city supporters we're going to pay them more But Duncan was looking for more answers when it came to that And have the speaker or the lieutenant governor indicated how they will judge what improvement looks like I mean are we talking about one fewer robbery for example is that better or what's the grading standard here I'll be honest I haven't asked that question yet You know we're figuring out the breaking news of today but I think that's going to be a very good question that reporters like me are going to put to especially the speaker and to gubernatorial candidates of you know is it less high profile crimes overall numbers What is that going to look like I believe that's a question that we're going to have to answer here But make no mistake this movement is not dead for good Absolutely not Politics royal ballet with us live from the state capitol this afternoon Get some rest this weekend if you can Yeah I will All right thanks so much Our time now 5 48 It's all things considered continues here on WAB and taking a look at a traffic.

"I am with food saying all right so we had the last question. If you ready for the last question this is this is kind of suggestion oriented and maybe brandon question again. But what is a little known book that you would like to see like make it may extra points if you can go local. I don't know if you guys were aware of point based system this podcast based on just one second year year a sudden death overtime or have you. Yeah yeah right exactly. No well i would say i so largely at the thing is like little known is what's tripped me up because the thing is everybody knows james baldwin and tony morrison but not everybody has read their stuff like everybody knows them by name. You know so. I weigh like Like toni morrison's possibly my favorite novelist. James baldwin's possibly my favorite fiction writer. And i feel like it's because they both have content that crosses into beaufort those lanes so again are they little known authors know. How often am i discussing. Either their work with someone not that often not often enough. And i feel like that's something important to me That being said you know how shoutout seles doke. Sue has a small collection of poetry with us who's always just good warm energy so i'm selling her book right now but i'm i'm selling like her. Her energy to her vibe or vibe is really. i love her yeah you know. Yeah like go go. Pick up a black classic writer. You know somebody that you've heard of but you probably haven't read that's Go tell it on the mountain for james baldwin and they're not say home for tony morrison specifically There you go for that. Yeah there you go got a veracious reader. Giving you suggestions that suggestion listeners. Take advantage so that's pretty much the end of the questions so i like to Offer the opportunity for both of you to shamelessly shamelessly..

When you're trying to read you trying to trying to figure out how to get into a rhythm. I know for me i have to really get myself to a point like all right. Get up refi pay just retain pages whatever that looks like. Then you're you're in in. It's like it's almost like watching a show sometimes for me. It's like you might be a little slow. Initially than i'm hooked. What are your specific reading preferences. Can you just read through a book. And i know it's books are very but he just breezed through one. What does that reading preference. I've heard someone say they like to eat french fries and drink a beer while reading a book. That's the most that's my girlfriend us and she gets gender stands it. She's reading dune right. Now there's a lot of french fries and a lot of beers sitting around a so if you will does that reading preference for you over year reading like twelve books a month her slow down for sure. I definitely so for me. This coming here was a a shift in occupation. I wanted it's this is why believe manifestation could somewhere towards the beginning. She said i'm to get back or do more into literary space. I wanted to read more. Want to write more just wanted to be in the presence of literature more law whole. I decide for whatever reasons they leave. The restaurant. Industry altogether by Just for lots and lots of personal reasons to just be like. Okay thank you for the last eight and a half years. I'm good you know a out the Doors books were wide open. And i was able to walk in and you know that that was really that was really the first step into like really making that goal.

"Her. Your volunteer your hold in the boom for some reason but it's the theatrical production wiser mike. You don't worry about is fine and so truly and then you know the end. There's a lot of devices. Especially i think in the dc maryland area a lot of devising in different smaller companies. And so. i think you know knowing that those are experiences that like joan. I had made us very adaptable. Able to do a lot of things and think creatively an outside the box as far as like how to engage people because honestly as as a theater artist you know there is maybe unfairly an expectation that you are also as an actor you have to figure out how to engage people to come to your show so there is that element of like okay. How can we get more people to be involved in so just knowing that. Like tina and brandon had that background. It's like you just know that you're going to have someone who's going to be able to collaborate really well create and then come with ideas in like you know. That's i think the best part about our team is that we all have ideas and we all worked together and nobody has an ego about you know visiting working. Let's try is you know i. It's been again like for me. I think i just constantly have as my background is in light administer like artistic administration amp producing as well as directing and writing. So it's so. Yeah i actually. I don't particularly put acting at the forefront because it's like my mind has just been so different and i think that's what's been my strong suit around here just because i'm kind of. I'm a solution as as well as an idea generator. So like if you know if i'm i. I tried to fix the problem off in my tool for fixing that problem. It's something creative or something. Artistic artsy whatever you wanna call it. It's You know and. I think that you know one of the reasons for me has been been in a space. I think this is what helps with our here is because the energy is just not just good but it's also familiar And i think that being able to put the input from my background's even if it doesn't stick to the wall at least i. There's nothing wrong with me. Taking the shot there and there's space and almost expectancy that that's the track that i take and or because we again because we're all just kind of in that mindset naturally as it is and so you know it's been cool you know again using that in a creative space which is you know it is like you know i you know i i i i i right because i used to read all the time and i just kind of a way that i can give back now hopefully passing on a book to someone else who honestly like. It's nothing that makes me happier. That specifically young black boys come into the bookstore because it was i. I was always in the library. But i was often the only one that looked like me in the library..

"I i it. Yeah we jingle or like a gesture by some now commercial material here. This is great on spot somewhat sinus. That is important when you have whatever the the local shop is in whatever like whatever. The item is doesn't matter as much as the people vibe if you will that the community component. That's there so. I always go back to like when i go into. Let's say a bookstore. Where have you war. Go to a coffee shop or go into anything. That's kind of like right there. That i'm going to a regular hunt and they know my thing it's like oh you want an ice coffee with sentiment in simple syrup little pinella so you get you get it is. Cuban is giving us great and as for the robbery when you go to a sophomore coffee. Shameless flood bayer. Or if i go to a bookstore. Have you say oh. We got this latest thing in that you asked about last time and say oh you remember me. Oh wow this is now more more than me just going there to get this book in this one instance now turns into a gift shop now discharged into a place when get these other items that are within the community because by local supporting your local everything is very important especially now is very important especially now with how things have gone over the last year and a half. Were speaking on that. This philip of natural segue point so being being open for less than six months before this health. Scape as i like to call pandemic happened. How how has that. The business shifted. I know this that for some places they said oh we invested more online the orlando infrastructure and more on like having videos of hosting events with different authors. And things like that. Wh- what happened there at Books in terms of going from starting to pivoting. because that's been the word of twenty twenty two twenty twenty one. I was well you you. You can start off with like the beginning since i started literal months before the band. Yeah it was We were just started getting our feet under us and we were we had been doing previously the pandemic like twenty to twenty five in store events a month and so it was a really big bummer. We march because me were starting to get some momentum with a lot of things we were doing and You know the biggest things. Initially that we did.

"So far and i think that that's great ends. I think that's within the like the initial blurb that i read as community gathering space and community. Is you know it's the second thing right at the bookstore. So it's as important. I think and i i always use. The eh may not work as well. Always use this kind of comparison when i go to a different city and i go to a coffee shop. It's like i want to see something. I'm gonna go to the local place before i go to the starbucks. I may have the discount starbucks. But don't taste chicory or something. When i go to new orleans denison. I'm not getting the ripe bright experience. So i think the same thing applies when you go to a community. So if you're going to pay town in this place is like no. If that's really a baltimore place i don't know if there's really a big town place it's just sticks out is like this was planted here. It's not really a part of the community. And why should in the same space in the same way. Why should community wanna wanna embrace it in a way. But i think you guys are doing the opposite and that's great. That's great to really be involved in that way. Being a good neighbor i guess. Almost it's almost insurance ad- right there. That's because he's there must be cautious nine nine state all stay stand act and maybe maybe this but if you would in each of you or make it hard between the two of you described at the store in three words so you can use one and a half ass. You can finish the other person's half word. Our you want to do this but you know us controlling. This is great. I mean i think we we agree like even though that you know it's already in the name of the store like charming. I definitely feel like is a way to describe the store. Also a word that we've heard a lot from people will walk in because it is in this very old building you know it's an historic building. you know before it was a bookstore. It was like a police substation before that it was gallery. And before that. It was like a spirituality shop were a psychic greetings. And then like before that. It was someone's house so and a lot of lives a lot of iterations And yet it's a very old little row house and you know it has all these little nooks and crannies and you know we've done a lot to really make the space feel warm and inviting..

"Everybody here all of the enthusiasm. I appreciate so so. I'm going to look like a hero because this is i. Think the second bookstore. That i've had on this podcast and my girlfriend's gonna be very happy about it because she is a writer and she's like pretty much any book that she has in her home has been from a local bookstore in the last couple of years has been by me so now i'm just looking like i'm a hero in that regard. Oh you know another bookstore. So yes i do so so speak on. I guess just that background elevator. Pitch tell us more about the store for those who initiated. I was initially. And then i did a little bit of a deep dive but the history location and things like that. Yeah so we opened officially october two thousand nineteen so just five months before this lovely pandemic and originally so my my siblings all live in baltimore and went to school here and I really wanted to be close to family. We my husband. And i are both. The artists have an artist background accidents. I mentioned jobs out of town for months. And that's because he's actually doing a movie And so he. And i both have a shared love for like skill sharing and teaching in just gathering artistic creative people together and The the bookstore idea sort of came from that knowing that there was this reemergence of india bookstores as these spaces that collaborate with other businesses in the community and also like invite writers and other artists and musicians. I've worked for a while at this bookstore in old town alexandria and pre pandemic. They were having these awesome like music. Nights and writers workshops in author toxin is just a really cool space for created people So that's sort of wear idea for creating business came from and yeah and then you know it was sort of a matter of figuring out..

"Uranus in astrology So he'll brick welcome to the studio welcome to the studio for a second time. We had a little bit of a urine is transit. Did we not. We did this attempt number two to record this episode and we literally restarted recording About an hour ago and then Thirty seconds i think into it The power cut off in the entire building and saturn was actually read on the ascendance in in aquarius at that moment and we lost power for about an hour yet completely. Everything just went absolutely dark like like a year. I need uranian lightening. Strike it. we we couldn't have planned it better or worse right. So maybe i'll put like an out out. Take maybe at the end of this episode of that absolutely do so people can see that because that was really brilliant. Yes sometimes when you're doing astrology and talking about the planet. Sometimes you invoke the planet do and in fact the power came back on as jupiter. Hit the ascendant. It just flipped on just slightly and then when pisces began derise jupiter's domicile than we were able to begin recording again. The timing is just crazy. Yeah i love that. So in this episode this is part of my series ongoing series on the the meaning of each of the planets in astrology and We're gonna read through some passages from different astrologers gonna talk about the history of the planet and its discoveries. The first of the outer planets ralston read some passages from astrologers from the past and how they talked about urine s to get some context about how astrologers have talked about the planet but not very far in the past. Yeah we're only one hundred or a hundred and fifty years in the past because that's as far as we can go when it comes to your ns which is only discovered a few centuries ago and then we're going to use that as a jumping off point as sort of riff on that and talk about the meaning of the planet as well as maybe some combinations with other planets as well right yes. Yeah so you've seen the other episodes we've done the planet. I've seen a couple of them. Yeah okay cool Well i thought you would be a good person for the planet urinate because you actually half year. Ns rising in the first house right. i do. it's Definitely in the first house. It's about ten degrees off the ascendant. But it is the first planet up and on top of that i have an aquarius mid heaven and on top of that i have four planets. End the north node in the eleventh house. So even though i am an aries i often introduce myself as an aquarian and yes definitely i identify with uris. Okay do you mind. If i show your chart absolutely not asked you ahead of time. But i was like make sure. So here's your chart What's your birth neta for the audio listeners. April sixth nineteen forty nine. And that would be in the bronx new york and it's eight thirty two and it's eight thirty two am. I don't know whether have that right. It's tiny some places. Have eight twenty nine. Because that's what i had for years but it's close and i've got eight twenty seven. Yeah it's it's actually eight thirty. Two okay makes a difference of less than a degree on the ascendant Well nonetheless. I feel like i've failure by having birth time wrong and i apologize for that for that ahead of published everywhere because i actually thought this was my birth time and about three or four years ago. An old birth certificate surfaced after. How many years of practicing astrology forty fifty. Oh that's wild okay. Well that's my worst nightmare. Some astrologers worst nightmare at least it was the same within the railways within five minutes earth time which meant a degree on the ascendant and none of the other planets changed noticeably. Okay so you didn't have like a complete breakdown So you're charges for those with the the audio listeners. You have a fourteen fifteen degrees of gemini rising and urine. Ns is also gemini at twenty six degrees of the same sign right and actually in the corrected version at sixteen gemini. I rising zouren. Ten degrees off the ascendant. Nice okay. well those are pretty good. You're in accolades then in terms of being my my astrologer talk talk with about this planet. And the other thing is is that you're in is's Is sex style to saturn though that gives me a little bit of authority perhaps are fake authority nice. I'll take i'll take that Otherwise you've got a Areas stellian in the eleven holstein house eleventh quadrant houses. Well yes okay But moon cancer down there in the second ish and saturn just barely in leo at twenty nine leo yet. That's right twenty nine fifty. Leo like it's almost it's almost an aquarius. I'm sorry it's almost virgo. But it's retrograde so it's like don't make me be a saturn in virgo red eye and then jupiter and capricorn. Which i also have some fan of that placement. I e yeah. I'm always puzzled over the idea of Of that being in it's just slightly to left. Okay i'm always puzzled about that being you know in opposite it's exultation You know in its fall. And i love editor and capricorn. It's a saving grace. My chart read. Yeah definitely Same same here alright. So let's get into talking about urine as talking about the planet uranus yom so first off. Here's a little illustration of your ness and also the glib for the symbol that for the most part has come to us for your through his one variant cliff that sometimes used more in european countries. But i think even there. This cliff is is really started to take over over the past two decades. Yeah i this is. The glyphosate is most widely used for a while. The other one was in more usage. And i love the fact that we can see here. Clearly that urine in like saturn is a ringed planet. And and that was kind of shocking. When we i realized that but but yeah and you know the cliff of uranus I in the ron davidson discussion of the g- lifts in his book astrology. He talks about how a lot of the lifts have the cross somewhere in the and the cross represents the material world right matter matter that right. The cardinal cross and that with saturn cardinal crosses elevated and we have the curve that backwards s off the bottom but with the cardinal cross is contained within what he calls the pillars of good and evil. In other words. There's the extreme opposites that are somehow containing the the the material universe and the whole thing is poised above that you know the sphere of potentialities the the circle tub. Yeah it's a. it's a cool cliff. I liked the cliff of uranus. Yeah that's something. I'd like to get into an episode on at some point the symbolism of the cliffs. And how that's been interpreted in modern times. I think i talked to al about it a little bit. Because his was the first book. I read about that sort of theory. And he goes into it one of his books but that'd be episodes so with this planet. We have to do some historical background because I mean we should start right there. Because you're s was the first of the newly discovered outer planets after you know three four thousand years of basically a history of western astronomy in the history of science where we only had the seven traditional celestial bodies the seven traditional quote unquote planets which includes the sun and the moon but also mercury venus mars jupiter and saturn. So the seven traditional planetary bodies eventually on march thirteenth seventeen eighty one This new planet was discovered and this was actually a big deal because it completely changed our understanding of the of the solar system and some west yet it. It actually is a huge deal that will come back to in in a few minutes because it it was more than just changing our perception of the solar system the outer world in which we lived but it also changed our perception.

Thanks, Mark 608. We're live and local 40487207 51 800 WSB talk chase Earlier in the show, Shelly Winter gave a rant about Herschel Walker and why he thinks it's it's bad for his people. The conservatives to endorse Herschel Walker running for a Senate seat. What are your thoughts? So, Shelly, I'll tell you this is, uh, why I think Herschel Walker will win And it's a bit of political trivia and what I'll do is I'll ask the question. And then I'll give you the answer. Okay, so I'm going to start. I'm gonna start with a list of names so House Speaker David Ralston of Georgia, former America seem read. Governor Brian Kemp. Herschel Walker himself and all of the governors of Georgia since Jimmy Carter. Do you know what they all have in common? I don't all right. The answer is they're all part of the gridiron gang. So the Gridiron gang is University of Georgia's version as a skull and bounce so all these people, they're all brothers. And that's it. I'll see you later. Alright. Love your show. Have a good one. You two don't appreciate you great information and and and and not, and not far off. I mean, that that is when you have a powerful organization behind you. It does help. So I'm not going to argue with Dylan on that great great information. Dylan. Great call. Luke wants to weigh in on her show Walker as well for him against them. So I got a lot to share. And I appreciate you guys give me the platform real quick. I'm just going to start off saying God is real. No matter what title it is, you give him or it. Um, life goes on. Not all family, our friends but true friends, really our family all the points that have been discussed so far. I kind of think they all go together and I'll start with the man friends. And I think the generation of men now whether millennial or post millennial We had fathers and grandparents that might have served in the wars that were tough guys that had higher expectancies in live a much larger demand on personal accountability. And after that went to the other spectrum of you learn in the sensitive side, really appreciating not being in that kind of stuff. We really did go through a culture shock of Waterman is supposed to do what a man is allowed to do. And men sometimes are too ashamed necessarily of their own past. And, uh Lives to really share with other men. Uh, that's why you find great groups and therapies. But that kind of goes to the whole Herschel Walker thing. Where you know, Shelly, I don't want to say you only had three Um you know, three ways of being a hip great, but I think almost you touch the fourth one of yourself grouping all conservatives together. Kind of like the do liberals and Democrats really do what they do is they grouped themselves together, So I think by grouping all of everybody into one group of Whether you're for or against Herschel is based only on political, but that kind of goes to the glorifying glorifying of celebrities that we do today. There's no reason why one individuals should be able to make a contract that could literally one person to change of Third World country. But that goes to Melanie Kai's version and maybe back to yesterday, talking about the road trips and gospel music and stuff. Being a preacher's kid. I am so far from religious but I am spiritual.

It's a production line in columbia south carolina. That's turning out a novel injection device that the trump administration is counting on to help deliver the covid nineteen vaccine as early as this spring. Npr's learn that later today the administration will add to its already hefty investment in a company called apogee systems america and extend more than half a billion dollars to its effort to backstop the country's covid nineteen vaccine program.

They were all avid skiers who were familiar with the local mountains and the conditions that day were ideal sunny with lots of fresh powder. They were only a few runs in. When Anna tripped losing her skis tumbled and slid toward a frozen stream when she hit the ice broke and her upper half was pulled into the frigid rushing.

Things happen to keep you as close to that number as possible but the world is a cold place. Sometimes when the body census you getting too cold it begins to protect you from the outside in since air polls heat away from the surface of the body. Blood vessels in the skin begin. Constricting less blood is going to your arms and legs and more is staying in your core to keep your internal organs warm. This leaves -ceptable to frostbite. But you've got bigger problems. If the vessel constriction doesn't stop the temperature drop. The body tries to make more heat by moving the muscles. You'll start to shiver. Usually from the chest muscles outward. This too can be a problem if it goes on too long as it tears through your nutritional reserves and taxes heart increasing the risk of heart attack or stroke if your body temperature drops below ninety five degrees Fahrenheit thirty five Celsius hypothermia sets in your blood pressure drops and your breathing becomes shallow. This means less oxygen is getting to your brain which can bring on slurred speech. Confusion nonsensical action and none of which will be particularly helpful. Arctic Explorer Robert Falcon Scott referred to this in his writings on his nineteen eleven expedition as a half thawed brain. And there's a truly bizarre reaction that happens sometimes paradoxical undressing the freezing person suddenly feels like they're burning up and strips off all their clothes so now you're dead and everybody can see your hoo-ha as the cooling continues. The brain and other organs begin to shut down when the helicopter landed at University. Hospital fog and homes core temperature was fifty six degrees Fahrenheit fourteen degrees Celsius about sixty percent of what it should be. She had no signs of life. But the head of the Emergency Department mads Gilbert and his team made a decision. Anna was not dead until she was warm and dead. They rushed log home into an emergency room and hooked up to a heart lung. Bypass machine pumping her blood out of her body to warm it and then pumping it back in hours past. And her temperature's slowly rose. The staff watched her vitals. The ekg machine blipped then flatlined again. Then booked again. Suddenly homes heart jumped back to life coming on its own. The cold had preserved her brain like an organ waiting to be transplanted even while it was starving. Her brain of oxygen on a bag home was alive but she had a long row to Hoe.

An elephant is to use an old-fashioned tracking method. We saw the fresh. Dung piles along the road and followed those found him in this clearing. It's an enormous elephant is money grass less than twenty feet in front of us. It's magical the one day. National Park is two hundred square miles of seems leans just like that and seeing them makes it hard to believe that just four years ago the park was on the verge of collapse so I always describe me Wendy as we founded as being in a state of terminal decline. That's park manager Craig Reid. He arrived here four years ago with a nonprofit organization called African parks and his job job was to bring Lewanda back from the brink so fictitiously what would have happened.

What's the Controversy Behind 'Mary Had a Little Lamb'?
"Brain stuff, Lauren Vogel bomb here. If you visit the town of sterling Massachusetts today, you'll find a small copper statue of woolly little creature meant to be a replica of the original Lim that followed nine year old Mary Sawyer to school in eighteen fifteen below the statue is a plaque inscribed with the famous opening verse end ascriptin Mary had a little lamb. It's fleece was white as snow and everywhere that Mary went the lamb was shared go. Jon Rao stone. So who exactly was Mary Sawyer? And who was this John Ralston who allegedly wrote the original poem, according to a sixty page book, titled the story of Mary and her little lamb and published in nineteen twenty eight by none other than karma yoga, Henry Ford. More on that later, Mary Sawyer was a typical New England schoolgirl who nursed starving lamb back to health winning a lifelong friend in this book, an adult Sawyer recounted. I got the lamb worn by wrapping it in an old garment and holding it in my arms beside the fireplace in the morning much to my girlish, delight it could stand and from that time and improved rapidly. It soon learned to drink milk and from the time it would walk about it would follow me anywhere. If I only called it. The books behind the music story of the song explains that before leaving for school one morning Sawyer whistled for the lamb and it came faithfully trotting over at which point her brother NATs justed. Let's take the lamb to school with this. She tried to hide the lamb in a basket under her chair. But it was discovered when she stood up to recite a lesson and the fluffy critter started to bleat her teacher. Polly Kimball laughed outright, which caused Sawyer some embarrassment. So she took the lamb out to a shed until school was over for the day. John Ralston was a local boy preparing for college who happened to be visiting the old red school has that day and was according to Sawyer very much pleased with the instant of the lamb so Ralston went home wrote a three stanza poem and return the next day on horseback to hand deliver the original verses of Mary had a little lamb to Sawyer herself. Or so the story goes in sterling Massachusetts meanwhile in Newport, New Hampshire the folks celebrate hometown hero. Sarah Joseph a hail as the author of this beloved nursery. Rhyme HALE is also famous for her role in creating the modern American thanksgiving by a long running letter campaign to five US presidents as a young poet and writer HALE moved to Boston in eighteen twenty eight to become the editor of the first women's magazine in the United States later known as good he's ladies book. It was in Boston that helmet Lowell Mason, a young musician composer intent on bringing music education into America's public schools. Mason inhale shared, the belief that sim. Children's poems set to music could be used teach good Christian morals to kids that would help them. Grow into productive and upright citizens at Mason's. Request HALE wrote a short book fifteen poems called poems for our children, which was published in eighteen thirty Mason than wrote simple melodies to accompany each poem, including these six verse poem, then known as Mary's lamb. Interestingly the tune Mason wrote for Mary's limb, which was included in his eighteen thirty one book, juvenile liar likely the first public school songbook sounds nothing like the melody we know today that melody was borrowed later from the course of a popular minstrel show song called good night ladies, so which story is true. So you're claimed that the first three verses of Hale's poem were identical to the one written by young John Ralston, although the piece of paper gifted to Sawyer had long since disappeared and rows don't tragically died while a freshman at Harvard. So he wasn't around corroborate. When hails version was included in school readers nationwide in the eighteen. Fifties. So you're assumed that the author had simply expanded on Ralston's original three verses, but HALE denied ever seeing another version of Mary had a little lamb and swore. She had conjured the story holy from her imagination. Both Sawyer inhale signed letters in sworn statements in their old age hail just days before death in eighteen eighty nine professing that they were telling the truth of the origin of what had already become a classic nursery rhyme. Enter Henry Ford after both of the women were long gone automobile. Magnate Henry Ford stepped into the fray in nineteen twenty seven he took up the cause of Mary Sawyer moving the wooden frame of Mary's original red schoolhouse from sterling Massachusetts to the nearby town of Sudbury where Ford owned an inn and then in nineteen twenty eight he published the aforementioned book, which gives Ralston full credit for the original versus and asked. Why a respected local woman who served as a matron of the local hospital would make up such a wild story in repeat it her entire life. Hails defenders asked the same question. Sandra Sonics in volunteer archivist of these Sarah j HALE collection at the Richards free library in Newport, New Hampshire writing for the library's website said the story of Mary Sawyer implies that somehow Sarah HALE came across this never published schoolhouse poem, and plagiarized it. How could you have come across? It. Henry Ford's book explains the two towns where Sawyer inhale lived. We're close to each other. They're ninety miles apart over the most direct route. That would have been followed in eighteen fifteen Henry had not yet invented the automobile. So the distance was considerable in a Baltimore Sun story from nineteen ninety eight about the ongoing feud between sterling Massachusetts and Newport, New Hampshire a hail supporter and Newport librarian weighed in let's face. It. Henry Ford made good cars. I don't think he's a good
