1. John R. Mott - Biography
john raleigh mott (May 25, 1865January 31, 1955) was born of pioneer stock in ofYoung Men's Christian Associations, with a Foreword by john R. mott.
http://www.nobel.se/peace/laureates/1946/mott-bio.html
John Raleigh Mott (May 25, 1865-January 31, 1955) was born of pioneer stock in Livingston Manor, New York, the third child and only son among four children. His parents, John and Elmira (Dodge) Mott, moved to Postville, Iowa, where his father became a lumber merchant and was elected the first mayor of the town.
At sixteen, Mott enrolled at Upper Iowa University , a small Methodist preparatory school and college in Fayette. He was an enthusiastic student of history and literature there and a prizewinner in debating and oratory, but transferred to Cornell University
In the summer of 1886, Mott represented Cornell University's Y.M.C.A. at the first international, interdenominational student Christian conference ever held. At that conference, which gathered 251 men from eighty-nine colleges and universities, one hundred men - including Mott - pledged themselves to work in foreign missions. From this, two years later, sprang the Student Volunteer Movement for Foreign Missions.
During Mott's remaining two years at Cornell, as president of the Y.M.C.A. he increased the membership threefold and raised the money for a university Y.M.C.A. building. He was graduated in 1888, a member of Phi Beta Kappa, with a bachelor's degree in philosophy and history. In September of 1888 he began a service of twenty-seven years as national secretary of the Intercollegiate Y.M.C.A. of the U.S.A. and Canada, a position requiring visits to colleges to address students concerning Christian activities.

He was one of the organizers of the World Missionary Conference (Edinburgh, 1910), which marked the beginning of the modern ecumenical movement and which ultimately resulted in the formation of the World Council of Churches. He was chairman of the Student Volunteer Movement for Foreign Missions (1915-28) and of the International Missionary Council (1921-42) and president of the World's Alliance of YMCAs (1926-37).

Swarthmore College Peace Collection (b. Jan. 8, 1867, Jamaica Plain, now part of Boston, Mass., U.S.d. Jan. 9, 1961, Cambridge, Mass.), American sociologist, political scientist, economist, and pacifist, a leader of the women's movement for peace during and after World War I. She received the Nobel Prize for Peace in 1946 jointly with John Raleigh Mott . She was also noted for her sympathetic and thorough study of Slavic immigrants in the United States. A member of the first graduating class at Bryn Mawr College (Pennsylvania), Balch taught at Wellesley College (Massachusetts) from 1897. She founded a settlement house in Boston and served on the Massachusetts commissions on industrial relations (1908-09) and immigration (1913-14) and the Boston city planning board (1914-17). She researched Our Slavic Fellow Citizens (1910) by living in Slavic-American neighbourhoods in various cities and traveling to eastern Europe for firsthand knowledge of the Slavic homelands. A member of the Society of Friends (Quakers), Balch was a delegate to the International Congress of Women, The Hague (1915), and she helped found the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom, of which she was secretary-treasurer (1919-22, 1934-35). For opposing the United States' entry into World War I, she was dismissed from her professorship at Wellesley in 1918. Realizing the intractability of Nazi Germany and Japan, she approved U.S. participation in World War II. Her writings on peace include

John R. Mott
By Kate Luckert
Graduate Student, Grand Valley State University
Definition/Life Highlights John Raleigh Mott was an American Methodist evangelist active in world service and a winner of the Nobel Peace Prize in 1946. Mott organized student missionary movements and united churches around the world in an effort to promote peace and world alliance.
Historic Roots John R. Mott was born May 25, 1865, in Livingston Manor, New York. He died January 31, 1955 in Orlando, Florida. At a young age, his parents moved the family. His father became a lumber merchant and was elected the first mayor of Postville, Iowa. As the only son (John had three sisters), it was thought that he would follow his father's footsteps in the lumber industry. However, a Methodist minister persuaded his parents to allow him to continue his studies. When he was 16, Mott attended Upper Iowa University, a Methodist preparatory school. He later transferred to Cornell University where he received a bachelor's degree in philosophy and history. It was at Cornell that Mott first became involved in world service through the YMCA. In 1886, he represented Cornell University's YMCA at the first international, interdenominational student Christian conference. Then, for twenty-seven years (1888-1915), Mott was the national secretary of the Intercollegiate Committee of the YMCA of the U.S.A. and Canada. He also served as chairman of the Student Volunteer Movement for Foreign Missions (1915-28) and of the International Missionary Council of the YMCA (1921-42). Mott was president of the YMCA's World Alliance from 1926-37.

Project: Biographies of Peace Prize Winners
A biography is the story of a life. Biographies can be just a few sentences long, or they can fill an entire book - or two. Some biographies include basic facts of someone's life and importance, and sometimes a little more detail is added to tell a good story. Biographies can also analyze and interpret the events in a person's life, and they can present information about the significance of the person's accomplishments or life activities. The 9-4 and 9-5 Language Arts students at Birchwood Intermediate School were each paired with the name of a Nobel Peace Prize recipient. Each student conducted research and gathered information from the Internet and the Birchwood Library Resource Center to learn about their Nobel Peace Prize recipient. Each student wrote a brief biography about that person or organization. Students also conducted an Internet search to locate other Internet sites that provided additional information about their recipient. Students were taught the 5 basic components of HTML writing, and were taught how to create web pages using an HTML editor. This site "Peace Project: Biographies of Peace Prize Winners" is the result of their work.

III. Alfred Nobel And The Nobel Prizes Alfred Nobel is the man who invented dynamite. He is better known today, however, as the man who established some of the most prestigious prizes in the world. Born in 1833 in Stockholm, Sweden, Nobel from his youth had a dream of inventing an explosive so devastating it would deter humans from making war. Instead, his invention made war easier. Though he was a Swede by birth, he was very much an international man, being educated in St. Petersburg, Russia, where his family moved when he was a child. In St. Petersburg, he studied with private tutors, particularly showing interest in chemistry and languages. He mastered Swedish, Russian, English, French, and German. At the age of 17 he began two years of educational travel throughout Germany, France, Italy and to the United States. Then at the age of 19 he became a chemist, working with his father in St. Petersburg. The family returned to Sweden and in 1863 he was a chemist in his father's explosives factory at Heleneborg near Stockholm. In 1864 Nobel received a patent covering detonating charges and percussion caps. Called "The Nobel Igniter," it was to be called at a later time "the greatest discovery ever made in both the principle and practice of explosives." His 1866 invention of dynamite revolutionized mining, road building and tunnel blasting. In 1875 a later improvement was patented as blasting gelatine. In 1887 he patented ballistite, the first of the nitroglycerine smokeless powders. This was to serve as the basis for cordite which was eventually to change the use of firearms.
