The Norwich Bulletin published on Thanksgiving day a reproduction from a photograph of a scene which is be- coming rare in Connecticut. It was a view of a flock of 100 turkeys on a farm in Norwich town. Adjoining this picture on the page was the head, “In- cidents In Soclety.” As turkeys of this sort retailed at 35 cents a pound and upward, being by all odds the costliest Thanksgiving dirds that ceuld be bought, it is indeed probable that many of the turkeys there on view are by this time “incidents in society”— in “soclety’s midst,” so to speak.—New Haven Register.
