Thanksgiving poem and local notices mix in lively 1910s tone
A humorous seasonal verse by Walt Mason contrasts the speaker’s poverty with Croesus Russell’s wealth and lists humorous observations of rich society and common folk. The piece shifts to brief clippings about Gettysburg reunion delays, doctors warning about women's health hazards, motor speed, and a string of small classified notices offering hotels ranches and merchandise in Howell County and Greybull, Wyoming.
