The Brooklyn Daily Eagle Cook Book of 1926. The Eagle had also published cookbooks in 1922, 1923, and 1924. They were part of the newspaper’s “Libraries,” a series of pamphlets on diverse topics. The recipes were submitted by readers. It sold for a quarter, which was the equivalent of about $30 today.

1913 Fall fashion "Originality rather than uniformity in dress is the aim. Coats broken at the waistline by vests or girdles. Short skirts show the feet. Draperies follow lines of the figure. Sashes play an important role." From The Brooklyn Daily Eagle. America in the 1910's, FB.

Reginald Cliff Ingram, M.D., better known as Rex Ingram, graduated from Northwestern University, where he was an athletic star and earned his Doctor of Medicine. Ingram graduated with honors and was the first member of the university to cross as Phi Beta Kappa. Soon after, Ingram left for California to practice medicine but soon realized that he would never attain his ambitions as a doctor because "the white man was too thoroughly ensconced in the mantle of science," and he found that they relegated him to clean up after them.
So instead, he decided to pursue an acting career. In July 1936, Ingram said in the Brooklyn Daily Eagle, "For weeks, I hung around the studios of Hollywood waiting for a chance. I had many ambitions, most of which concerned raising my people's intellectual and cultural standards. But a man must eat, so when they offered a job as an extra, I took it. I appeared first as the cannibal chief in 'Tarzan of the Apes in 1918. Elmo Lincoln was the star." After several small roles throughout the silent era, Ingram finally caught his big break in "The Green Pastures."
Rex appeared in "Cabin in the Sky" (1943) and "Anna Lucasta" (1958), giving an outstanding performance for moviegoers. He has an excellent speaking voice and captures the attention of many. Rex is a pioneering actor that has paved ways for many African performers today.

Swift Retribution. Hugo’s Account of an Incident of the Riots of 1830. How a Cowardly and Unprovoked Murder by a Disguised Police Agent was Summarily Avenged by Enjolras, a Young Student, Leader of the Mob. 
In that wonderful book, "Les Miserables" Victor Hugo devotes considerable space to descriptions of the riots of 1830, which were of such importance that they are often termed a revolution. He was an eyewitness of the events and says of them. . . 
Source: the San Diego Union and Daily Bee, 1 November 1895
. . .they proceed to print a version of 4.12.8, “Many Interrogation Points With Regard to a Certain Le Cabuc,” including mentioning Enjolras’s “expression of chastity” and “virgin lips” (but that is besides the point.) But they wrote “Carbuc” instead of “Cabuc.” So by looking for other instances where that mistake was included, I found the same so called news story printed in Minnesota’s Mankato Free Press and New York’s Brooklyn Daily Eagle, both in 1895, as well as Indiana’s Terre Haute Express in 1897. So yeah, I guess there were really people out there thinking that Enjolras was real and that he killed a police spy in 1830.

An article in the Brooklyn Daily Eagle dated Saturday, May 26, 1900 titled "New Fashions for a New Century", discusses what women will be wearing at the beach on Coney Island this summer. Mother was appalled. Father was amused.

FIXING SISTER
1916
Tumblr media
Fixing Sister is a four-act play by Lawrence Whitman (aka William Hodge). It was originally produced by Lee Shubert starring Mr. Hodge. 
‘Fixing Sister’ tells how a devoted brother outwits a headstrong sister who has been carried away by the temptations of luxury, title-hunting, and bridge whist gambling, in the midst of the gay society life of the metropolitan rich. As a result of her foreign travels, she has almost annexed a foreign nobleman of untested lineage. Her brother. John Otis, a representative American of a shrewd and humorous sort,  learning of his sister’s peril, hastens to New York from Kansas City. It Is his native common sense and shrewdness which effect a not sudden, but finally very effective, cure, including staging a police raid at her bridge party. He also rescues his own sweetheart, a tantalizingly Independent sort of American girl, from the wiles and the guiles of New York society and foreign nobility.
All four acts take place in New York City.
Tumblr media
Bridge whist is a card game popular in the early 20th century. It was derived from whist with the additional rules that the players would take turns as dummy and that the trump suit would be deliberately chosen (including the option not to have one) on each deal rather than random. 
"Next Thursday night will be ‘police night' at Maxine Elliott's Theater, when the members of the police department gambling squad will attend in a body to see the performance of William Hodge in ‘Fixing Sister,' in order to enjoy the spectacular police raid of a gambling party, which furnishes an exciting climax to the third act.” ~ EVENING STAR
Tumblr media
The somewhat odd title was one of a dozen considered by Hodge. It was originally announced as The Social Climbers, but that seemed too similar to Clyde Fitch’s 1901 play The Climbers.  
Tumblr media
Fixing Sister opened in Atlantic City at Nixon’s Apollo Theatre on January 16, 1916. From there, it traveled to Wilmington DE, Altoona PA, Pittsburgh PA, and Boston MA.    
Tumblr media
After Beantown (Boston), Hodge and company went to the Motor City (Detroit) before returning to Boston’s Majestic, where business was brisk.
“As an indication of the volume of business being done, it was necessary, on Ash Wednesday, to place the orchestra on the stage and sell seats in the pit usually occupied by the musicians.”
In mid-March 1916, Hodge made a formal announcement confirming the rumors that he was indeed playwright Lawrence Whitman. At the end of March, Hodge took on a second play in his downtime: Hobson’s Choice at the Wilbur. He requested that Mr. Shubert cancel one of his Fixing Sister matinees so that he might perform in Hobson’s, but Shubert declined. Instead, he arranged a special benefit of Hobson’s at an alternate time.

Although the above item appears to be an article, it is actually a paid advertisement! Do not send Miss Maxwell-Conover stray cats!
Tumblr media
The Boston engagement finally came to an end on April 22, 1916. Although Broadway seemed the next logical step, the play moved to Maine through the end of the month. Hodge then retired to his summer home on Long Island to be with his wife and three small children, looking forward to bringing the play to Broadway in the new season. 
Tumblr media
Getting the play back on its feet, Hodge chose Pittsburgh, returning to the Alvin, where the play initially enjoyed a brief stay. 
Tumblr media
Fixing Sister opened on Broadway at Maxine Elliott’s Theatre (109 West 39th Street) on October 4, 1916.
Tumblr media
“Early in the play the audience is let into the secret. The onlooker is taken into the confidence of the leading character and the game is won. The audience plays the rest of the piece. The interest and enthusiasm is so alive that it comes in waves to me across the footlights. Such a play is bound to be a delight to both the folk who play it and those who are entertained by it.” ~ WILLIAM HODGE
Tumblr media
“Mr. Whitman’s play dramatizes the yellow journal idea of society life in Manhattan.” ~ BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE
Tumblr media
“When will Missouri stop ‘showing’ us New York?” ~ CHARLES DARNTON
Hodge’s character, John Otis, is from Kansas City, Missouri (aka the ‘Show Me’ State)
“Interest is sustained as long as [Hodge] is on the stage, making droll remarks about everything in general in his inimitable manner, but it lags perceptibly when the other characters are depended upon to keep things going.” ~ BROOKLYN LIFE
Tumblr media
In early November, the production cleverly addressed rumors that Hodge would close the New York production and tour. A week later, the play was extended, selling advance tickets for as far ahead as New Year’s. 
Tumblr media
Despite this, Hodge packed his tents and moved the play to Chicago a week before Christmas. It ran on Broadway for 85 performances.

January 4, 1950 was an unusually mild day. These four women—Marilyn Wichlenski, Ruth Meserole, Terry Darcy, and Marian Krish—enjoyed the weather in Cadman Plaza in downtown Brooklyn and read the papers. One is the Brooklyn Eagle.

“The radio, I know I’m its father, but I don’t like it. I just don’t like it. It’s a nuisance. I never listen to it. The radio is a distraction and keeps you from concentrating. There are too many distractions in this life for quality of thought, and it’s quality of thought, not quantity, that counts.”
–Nikola Tesla
“Father Of Radio, Who Hated It.” Brooklyn Daily Eagle, 1943.
