      General note

      Photo caption from published photo [no suitable substitute]: "THANKSGIVING MISGIVINGS - This turkey, looking anxiously at an axe on the Irvin C. Fromm turkey farm near Hespeler, has something to be thankful for this Thanksgiving. Five-year-old Ellen Fromm is only teasing him because, like thousands of other gobblers in the district, this fellow gets a respite until Christmas, the turkey season being late this year."

      Photo caption from published version of 47-508_001: "THREE DAYS TO GO - Christmas will be only a pain in the neck to these succulent turkeys on the Irwin Fromm farm near Hespeler. Birds like these brought [58?] to 64 cents a pound dressed on the Kitchener market Saturday. A shortage is reported of family type, 12 to 16 pound turkeys, but there a surplus of big birds."
