Another scrapbook page.
There are three distinct themes here. The first is a series of "Test your Knowledge" Q&As. These include "What job is held by Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis?" and "What American Indian was a famous baseball pitcher on Philadelphia Athletics team for many years?"
The answers are "National Baseball Commissioner" and "Chief Bender". Landis was 10 years into what would be a 24 year term, and Bender was a coach with the New York Giants.
The next two articles detail the same car accident which seriously injured several people in one family; presumably a family the owner was close with. These days were always hear how the injured in the hospital are resting comfortably - here two of the victims were "not resting so well". Hopefully everyone had a full recovery.
Finally, some country humor from Aunt Het. Aunt Het's got quite an attitude - my favorite here is "I mean't to give away that old black taffeta, but Pa's been ailin' lately and' there ain't no use takin' chances." If you're interested in more Aunt Het, someone has a blog called,
If Your Aunt Had Balls, She'd Be Aunt Het.
That's too funny about the Aunt Het blog. I guessed the two baseball trivia (technically they weren't guesses.....I knew the answers).
