Vacuums
Hoover 517
Materials: Aluminum Body with wood handle
Our thoughts: This is the second model from
the Hoover company. We found this vacuum
is pretty good but not the most state of the
art.
Eureka Model 2X
Materials: Aluminum body with plastic handle
Our thoughts: We would recommend this model over the
Hoover 517 just because it is much more state of the art with
a more powerful fan. We found that this model will help you
clean your house a lot faster.
We have found this model
to be the cream of the crop.
With its full aluminum
body it is an ease to push
around the house, unlike
the clunky previous model,
the Hoover 517. Everyone
in the office has taken their
turn pushing this beauty
around. If you are looking
to buy your wife a new vacuum you cannot go wrong with the
Hoover Model 700. The only down fall is it is so good you will
never be able to go back to another vacuum again.

The Sacco and Vanzetti Trial By Michael Easterlin
This decade there as a large trial that showed the unfair-
ness of the court system. The trail was called the Sacco- Van-
zetti Trial. We found the trial to be very unfair because these
people that were accused were falsely ac-
cused just because the magazines and
groups they were involved with. In the
trial two Italian anarchists were tried for
bombing Wall Street. The judge found
them guilty just because of the groups
they were involved with and that they
were anarchists. We found this to be un-
fair because through
the trial there was no real evidence that they
did it just evidence that they were a part of
the groups. The two men also were origi-
nally arrested just because they roughly fit
the description, but not really. Another
thing that made them arrest them was both
men were carrying guns, this wasn’t fair be-
cause it is the second amendment is the
right to bear arms. We also found the trial to be unfair because
the judge seemed to deem them guilty before any defense was
made.

THE MOVEMENT FOR WOMEN CHANGES THE FUTURE
FOREVER!!!!
Finally, after about one hundred years of waiting, the women on
August 26th finally got their wish, they finally have the right to vote
which changed not just the year of 1920, but for the future. The women
fought so hard that on that day the
19th amendment finally came it
clearly stated:
“The right of citizens of the United
States to vote shall not be denied or
abridged by the United States or by
any State on account of sex.” And
also, “Congress shall have power to
enforce this article by appropriate
legislation.”
This was all thanks to the women who started this ever since
the beginning of July 13th, 1848 like Elizabeth Cady Stanton,
Susan B. Anthony, Matilda Joslyn Gage and Lucy Stone started in
a conversation over a cup of tea. Talk-
ing about how Democracy has
changed where women has been do-
ing equal risks just like the men has.
Determined to do something about it,
Stanton agreed with her friends two
days after their tea together that they
would form an announcement on Se-
neca County Courier. They said it was
"A convention to discuss the social,
civil, and religious condition and
rights of woman," having the convention on July 19-20 at
Wesleyan Chapel.
For the preparation of the convention, Stanton came up with
“Declaration of Sentiments” not only just showed proof of the turning
point of society, but also saying "We hold these truths to be self-
evident; that all men and women are created equal; that they are en-
dowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights; that among these
are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." Stating how women have
been treated unequally. She pointed out eighteen ways of this stating
how: Married women were legally dead in the eyes of the law, Women
were not allowed to vote; Women had to submit to laws when they had
no voice in their formation; Married women had no property rights;
Husbands had legal power over and responsibility for their wives to the
extent that they could imprison or beat them with impunity; Divorce
and child custody laws favored men, giving no rights to women;
Women had to pay property taxes although they had no representation
in the levying of these taxes; Most occupations were closed to women
and when women did work they were paid only a fraction of what men
earned; Women were not allowed to enter professions such as medicine
or law; Women had no means to gain an education since no college or
university would accept women students; With only a few exceptions,
women were not allowed to participate in the affairs of the church;
Women were robbed of their self-confidence and self-respect, and were
made totally dependent on men.
For the day of the convention, Stanton was ready with 12
resolutions to the amendments and the Declaration of Sentiments,
but even with good ideas, she wasn’t successful with having eve-
ryone agree that women should have the right to vote.
Not only did the majority of the people disagree with the
idea of women’s right to vote, but editors started to criticize and
laugh at the idea of it becoming true. They tried every tactic to
bring down the women. Luckily, most of the women were firm in
their belief and raised awareness
across the neighboring towns. Hav-
ing more people join the women.
With everyone agreeing, there were
constant conventions that started
from 1850 to the beginning of the
Civil War, where drastic measures
were turned in Seneca Falls for
them to change the generation of
the future. Where women finally
got what they wanted... the right to
vote.
WHO WILL WIN…RELIGION OR SCIENCE?
The arrest of John Thomas Scopes in 1925 led “The Scopes Mon-
key Trial” on July 11th that would forever change so many viewpoints
in society. Bryan was asked by the World Christian Fundamental Asso-
ciation to represent teacher John Scopes from
the religious point of view. It was where William
Jennings Bryan and Clarence Darrow fought
against each other to represent religion and evo-
lution. To be more specific, it was a debate of
whether or not religion should be able to be
taught from public schools…where religion
would explain all of the reasons of why earth
was created, who created it, how it was created,
all of the questions that
one could ask them self.
For all of those questions would be answered.
So many people were blinded due to F.L.
Allen who’s from “Only Yesterday” who was
basically saying that Darrow humiliated Bryan
so bad during the trial, when in fact, that wasn’t
the whole entire case of the trial. Even though
there was an interesting question of "What is the
meaning of this harangue?" questioned Scopes,
while Darrow cried out in frustration "To show
up fundamentalism." Having, Mr. Bryan shouts out “To protect the
word of God from the greatest atheist and agnostic in the United
States."
From there on in the trial, tables turned after so many good argu-
ments, both sides finally came to an ending where religion won the
case! Bringing a huge accomplishment for everyone to understand why
Religion won.
Thankfully religion won because even
now, society has been brought up to
where they just rely on scientific facts,
when it has been proven that not all
things can be logically and scientifically
proven with facts.
For example, evolution can’t answer on
how it all began, of where all creatures
came from. They can start talking about
how they think everything began from the generation of the apes, which
has given people the theory that we people are from monkeys. Saying
how animals would be related to each other, etc. How there’s a whole
chain of relationships between each and every animal.
different hearings, and many wit-
nesses testified before the com-
mittee. On January 24, 1924, Ed-
ward Doheny, his friend, admitted
that he lent Fall one hundred
thousand dollars. Seven days after
that the Senate stated that the
leases to the Teapot oil reserve
“were executed under circum-
stances indicating fraud and cor-
ruption.” After that, Edwin Denby
and Albert Fall were forced to
resign from office. Harry Sinclair
appeared on trial and was charged
with conspiracy to defraud the
United States. The trial ended two
weeks later, because evidence
showed that Sinclair had hired
and detective agency to shadow
the jury. He was charged for
criminal contempt of court and
was found guilty, and sentenced
to six months in prison. Albert
Fall was charged with accepting
money from Doheny. Though M.
T. Everhart’s testimony showed
that Fall had lied to the senate
committee when he said he had
accepted any money from Sin-
clair. He was found guilty, fined
$100,000, and sentenced to one
year in prison. The thing is
though, President Harding admit-
ted to backing Fall up in the
whole deal, so the question is up
to you. Was the President behind
the whole plan of corruption
against the United States? Or had
Albert Fall and his friends fool
everyone, including the president?
Oil reserves were discovered in Teapot
Dome, Wyoming, at the begin-
ning of this century. In 1912,
President William Taft decided
that Teapot Dome and other gov-
ernment owned land and there
oil reserves should be set aside
for the United States Navy’s use.
On the 4th of June, 1920, Con-
gress passed a bill stating that the
Secretary of the Navy would have
the power “to conserve, develop,
use and operate the same in his
discretion, directly or by contract,
lease, or otherwise, and to use,
store, exchange, or sell the oil
and gas products thereof, and
those from all royalty oil from
lands in the naval reserves , for
the benefit of the United States”
This means that the oil reserves
were in the hand of the secretary
of the navy. Yet just a year later, Secre-
tary of the Interior, Albert Fall, con-
vinced Edwin Denby, the Secretary of
the Navy, that he should take over the
responsibilities of the Naval Reserves
at the Teapot Dome and other govern-
ment reserves. So Albert Fall, the Secre-
tary of the Interior, was now in charge of
the oil reserves. Later on, Fall decided that
his two friends, Harry Sinclair and Edward
Doheny, should be allowed to lease part of
the oil reserves. Many rumors and witness
have said that Albert Fall was spending
large sums of money. On the 14th of April
of 1922, it was
released that Fall leased the Teapot Dome
to Harry Sinclair. When reporters asked
President Warren Harding, he defended
Fall saying “the policy which has been
adopted by the Secretary of the Navy and
the Secretary of the Interior in dealing with
these matters was submitted to me prior to
the adoption thereof, and the policy de-
cided upon and the subsequent acts have at
all times had my entire approval.” By say-
ing this, President Harding conformed that
he was fully aware of what was going on.
When President Harding passed away on
August 2nd of 1923, Robert La Follette and
John Kendrick called for a senate investi-
gation into Albert Fall and the oil reserves.
Over the next few months there were many
