The Terrible Third and Secret Society Pranks
A humorous account from a newspaper clipping recounts a woman disguising as a man and joining a secret order, where in the third degree an India rubber rat and a clockwork snake test nerves. The tale notes reactions, jokes about lodge foot checks, and ends with a local request to tighten scrutiny of initiates. Also included is a notice for Jasper Missouri school district elections and tax measures.
