History
|
 Canadian journalism was past thirty years of real progress. In addition to newspapers in thrall to political parties, newspapers and sensations imitated U.S. leaves, it was created before any of the newspapers devoted to the discussion of ideas. The tone of journalism is not high, and held literary journals policies themselves are won.
It is difficult to distinguish between all the journalists who have done best literary works. Especially as the work of these writers are usually anonymous or remain buried in the collections of the newspaper where it was published. It has often been said for this reason that the newspaper article does not belong to literary history, and that the journalist who does not publish or otherwise further his writings, must be resigned to not appear there. We believe, however, useful to make more complete panorama of our literary life and key workers, at least here recall the names of journalists who, since 1900, have left a larger written work.

 From school to Carpano Area: a centennial
Emile Peltre, Director of the School from 1889 to 1899, undertook to reconstruct the history of watchmaking Arve Valley since its inception. His idea is to gather the tools to clean the watch and be alongside a collection of items used to measure time.
Finally, his idea took shape in 1902 thanks to Jean Lavaivre, director from 1899 to 1905. A room called the Museum of Industrial Cluses hosts 86 machine tools and about 300 watches and movements, pendulums, dials, etc..
Generous donors and alumni enrich the collection over the years.
In 1960, the school becomes State Technical High School and the Museum is no longer a priority. The room was that the museum is also requisitioned for the purpose of education.
In 70 years, former students and teachers wish to inform the public treasure that is held by the school.
In 1978, a new school room is attributed to the Museum by Claude Gros, headmaster from 1977 to 1982. Inaugurated in 1980, she was baptized Jules Barut Room, named after a former professor appreciated by alumni.
But in practice, this place is small and, because it is located within the school, easily accessible to the public during the school year.

 Issues such as how the universe began? "," Where is he? "," How the laws that maintain the order and balance? " have always been topics of discussion and it particularly attractive for scientists and philosophers have always proposed new theories.
The thought that has dominated until the early 20th century was that the universe had infinite dimensions, it had existed for eternity and would continue to exist indefinitely. In this view, called "model of the universe static, the universe had no beginning and no end.
This approach, which formed the basis of the materialist philosophy, deny the existence of a creator and argued that the universe was just a constant accumulation, stable and unchanging material.
Materialism is a system of thought to the matter which is something absolute and, therefore, denies the presence of anything but that substance. Taking its roots in Ancient Greece, this system, which has gained greater recognition in the 19th century, has spread in the form of dialectical materialism of Karl Marx.
As we have said, the "model of the universe static" 19th century laid the foundations of materialist philosophy. In his book Fundamentals of Philosophy, George Politzer said, commenting on this model, that "the universe was not an object created," and added:
"If it were, then it would have been instantly by God and it was from scratch. Accept means accepting its creation, first, a time when the universe n 'existed, and that has created something from nothing. It is something that science can not access.
