Tonight, while laying a new dryer vent in the attic, we found a crumbling copy of The Evening Star from Nov. 13, 1918 — just two days after the end of WWI. Our Capitol Hill home was built in 1909. Here are some of the best clips. History of The Star here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Washi…
Can’t resist sharing a few more shots of The Evening Star from Nov. 13, 1918 that we just found in our attic. Two days after the official end of WWI, one hed read: Victory Bread Soon Banished From Table.
Okay, okay, a few more from The Evening Star on Nov. 13, 1918. Crazy to think about 101 years ago! And that this was in our attic, wrapped around an old water heater!
Had to include this column: Quickly Made Meals, for “a woman who has done a day’s win-the-war work.” ... “If you write to the Department of Agriculture, Washington, you can get complete directions for making a fireless cooker at home.” November 13, 1918, The Evening Star.
