A fable-like tale contrasts parental cautions to youths with a stubborn youngster who ignores advice. At Thanksgiving the fattened turkey pays the price, while others learn a harsh lesson about heedless choices and consequences. The story uses a farmyard setting and a moral about listening to wiser voices.
Fragmentary OCR notes mention a cream station and a dairy facility with unclear phrases. The readable items suggest a commercial announcement related to a creamery or cream station in the local area.

A Utah obituary notes the death of Mrs Josephine Nelson on Sunday afternoon at 3 o clock after a battle with complications. She recently welcomed a baby girl and left a husband and six other children. She lived in Ovid for about 35 years and served as Relief Society president for six years. Her passing follows medical care from two doctors and a Salt Lake City nurse. Funeral arrangements are not listed.

Last week Judge Bryan substituted for a Cal dwell judge in the change of venue for the state v George Winter. The case was moved to Bear Lake county for the January term. Winter oversaw Pocatello water works amid a dispute with the water company. An officer went to serve papers at the dam. Winter reportedly fired a gun at the official.
