Thanksgiving week amid war talk and early progress reports
The article reflects on World War I's impact on American life as of November 26, 1914, noting rising prices and government export shifts. It cites reports from the New York Times about easing restrictions on gold and goods shipments, and mentions various international observers and spy activity in the U.S. economy. It recounts early 19th and 20th century milestones, including suffrage history, the first street railway, and notable women in public life, ending with a reader’s note about ear anatomy and a request to forward proofs.
