8 i7 \# U) ]7 h: U) wi want to welcome each and every balloon enthusiast to philadelphia .thank you for coming here this morning to commemorate the first bollon voyage in the unite states.on junary 9th 1793,at ten o'clock in the morning,a  balloon lift into the sky above the city.which was at the  time the capital of the country.
. u  u" C3 n2 l6 L9 _according to the original records of the flight ,the voyage lasted for fourty-six minutes.from it's departure from in   philadelphiat  to it's landing across the  delaware river in new  jersey.though our pilots  today ,will try to approximate the original landing site.there are at the mercy of the wind.so who knows where they will  drift off to .even the balloonist  in 1793,exprienced  some uncertain weather that  day.they were clouds ,fog. and mist in various  directions.# w/ Y5 y6 z7 u& D  n+ T/ M
our reenact ment promises to be nothing less than spectacular,the yellow balloon directly behind me is five stories high .it's inflated with helium ,unlike the original ,which was filled with hydrogen and unbeknownst to the pilot ,potentially explosive ,gas filled mode s are pretty uncommon mow because of the ectremely high cost ,so the eighty other balloons in today 's launch are hot air ,heated by propane burners .these balloons are from all over the counrty .

listen to the professor talk to the city planer in class.

a number of socialogists blame the automobile for the decline of downtown area of major cities.in the 1950's and the 1960's,the automoboile made it possible to  work in the city and yet live in the suburbs  mile away.shopoing pattern changed.instead of patronizing  down town stores,people in the suburbs went to the large shop malls outside of city and close to home .merchants in the city failed ;and their sores closed.down town shoping areas became deserted.
1 X! ?( c+ D. Fin recent years ,there is been the rebirth of downtown earas,as many of suburbanites have  moved  back to city. they have done this.of course to avoid highways clogged to the commuters from the surburbs .
8 g- }- y+ T) S- H. U1 f2 t; Yi have  chosen this particular city planing problem,our  dependent on  private transportation to disscuss in groups.i am hoping you all will come up some innovative   solutions.oh,and don't approach the problem  from a purely sociological perspective;try to took into account  environmental and economical issue as well., V* H7 H( \* e* G9 A3 ]& Q& p

in today's class,we will be in examing  some 19 -centery  pattern books ,they were used for building houses.i think it's fair to say that  these pattern books was the most important influence on the design of north american's house during 19-centery.
9 i2 j1 g1 R" j' d! t; }2 fthis was because most people who wanted to build a house couldn't affort to hire architect. instead they  bought pattern book . pick  out a plan and took it to the builder. the difference in  cost was substancial .in 1870, for example ,hiring  architect  wouldn't cost about a hundred dollors.at the same time ,a pattern book  writtened by a architect cost only  5 dollors.
  T. o. o( G; p/ O+ z0 m7 J1 kat that price ,it's easy to see why pattern books was so porpular .some are  back  in print again  today.and of course they   cost  a lot more than they did a hundred years ago.but they'r invaluble resource  for historians..and also for people who restore  old houses ,i have modern reprint here that'll be  passing around the room in a  movement so that  everyone can have a look.

last week,we talk about anne bradstreet and  a role of wonen in puritan colonies.today ,i want to talk about some other women who've contribute to american history.some famous some not so famous.the first women i'd like to talk about is molly pitcher.those who 're famliar with his name may know her as a hero of the amerian revolution ,but in fact ,there never was a women named molly pitcher.her really name was actually mary ludwig hays .she got nickname molly pitcher for her acts of breavery during revolutionary  war.3 F6 \/ J+ k6 A
as the story goes,when  mary's -or molly's,-husband ,john hays, enlisted  in the  artillery .mary followed like many other wieves did.she helped   out doing washing and cooking for the soliders.she was known to be a pretty unusually women.she smoke a pipe and chewed the tobacco.anyway ,in the summer 1778,at the battle of monmouth,it was a blistering  hot day .maybe over hundred degrees and fifty soliders died of the thirst during  the battle.molly was  content to stay  back camp.instead,she ran though the gunshot  and cannon fire.carrying  water in peacher  from a small stream out to thirsty american soliders, the relieve that he brought with pitchers of  water.gave her lengendery  nickname, molly pitcher.the story also says that she continued to load and fire her husband's cannon after he was wounded .they says she was so well  liked by the other soldiers that they call her "sergeant molly".in fact ,lengend has it that george washington himself gave her the special military title.

one of the porpular myths about us in the 19th centry was that  a free and simple life of the farmer,it was said farmer  work hard on their owner land to produced whatever their family needed.they might sometimes trade with their neighbours.but in general they get along just fine by relie on themseleves not on comercial tie with others.
3 r3 [3 B, ^. _" a; hthis is how thomas jefferson  idealized the  farmer  at the beginingpf  19th century.and that time this may has been close to   the truths especial on the frontier.by midcentry,sweeping  change in agriculture were well underway.as farmers begin specialze in raising the crops such as cotton or  corn or wheat," L1 r4 P* z/ b0 r
by  late in the century,revolutionary in advances in  farmer matchinary has vastly  increased production of specialary crops,and it is extensive  network railroad had link the farm throughout the county to markets in  east and even the oversea.by raising and selling specialized crops ,farmers could afford more and finer  good and achieve  a much higher standard living,but at a price.+ F: b0 K. W! v. D' t4 W3 R& a
now farmers  were  no longer  depend  just on weather or their  owner efforts.their live increasingly  controled by  banks which had power to grand or deny loans to the new machinary ,and by the railroad,which set the rates for shiooing their srops to market.as business man farm worried about the world economic depressions and influence the world supplies and demend for exemple ,the price of wheat in kansas.

i am going to talk about the train exemplifies the rise and fall of passenage train  in the united states:the twenty century  limited.let me go back just a bit.in 1893,special train was established to take people from new york to a exposion in chicago.it was so sucessful  in regular sevice was then set up between these city ,* f' ^5 E( ~; d/ r2 l) e, G, D
the inaugural  trip of  the twenty centry  limited was made in 1902,the train was different from what anyone've ever seen before.it was pulled by steamed engine and have five car.two sleepers,a dining car,a observation car,and a baggage car which believe or not ,contained a libary.the fourty-two passage the train could carried were waited on by a large staff,they are even secretries and barber on board.)

it was long before a person had to wait two years to  get a reservation,as time$ i; K" x& k8 W; Z/ h( q& ]
passed,techenical  improvements shottened  the trip  by a few hours.perhaps the biggest techenical change occurred in 1945,the swiche from steam to  diesel engines .by 1960,people are traving by  car and airplane.the great old train didn;t survive the end of the century it was named for .
