Evening Republican, Volume 14, Number 277, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 21 November 1910 — Another Thanksgiving Proclamation. [ARTICLE]
Another Thanksgiving Proclamation.
I hereby proclaim and set aside Thursday, Nov. 24th, at 12. o’clock high noon as the day and hour to give thanks and be tickled to death that you have been permitted to live and to talk about your neighbors without getting your face punched. And also furthermore that “The Fat Dinner Man” has not busted up yet, so that he can give, which he will do, on the day and hour set forth above, one of those famous “Thanksgiving Turkey. Dinners.” Roast turkey, cranberry sauce, oyster dressing, mashed potatoes, celery, etc., mince pie. All for the small sum of 25 cents. This meal is not to make money, only to be a good fellow. GEO. FATE, The Fat Dinner Man.
