An urban Thanksgiving tale follows Tim Dowling a boy from a rough street gang who is guided by a compassionate Angel through charity venues and a reforming Guild. Tim’s journey from theft to reform includes a city mission hospital the rise of a new talent in pyrography and leather work and entry into the Art Students League after experiences among crippled children and care workers.
A quirky from the era guide shows a magic bird cage trick and other simple feats to astonish playmates. It promises an easy, surprising effect and claims to amaze observers with a self-acting performance, like a boot or prop that misleads the eye.
A magazine style description explains a trick using a Yuko box of safety matches and a drawer. Two upright matches are set apart and a third is inserted between them to hold the drawer and box in a horizontal position. A fourth match is lit to burn the horizontal match, causing the others to spring inward while being extinguished. The article notes the experiment relies on specific match properties and warns against using volatile materials or dangerous substitutions.
