Description |
Annual Christmas number. Cover illustration by Irene Ewing Davis. Page 21 article "Prohibition" discusses the start of national prohibition. Page 23 features photograph by Wayne Albee. Page 25 includes article "Music and Seattle's Attitude Toward it" discussing Seattle's music community. Page 27 article "A Few Pictures Owned in Seattle" features art collections in Seattle and includes photographs of Charles Frye's gallery. Illustration/cartoon by Stewart Morris. It presumably illustrates this poem by Herbert H. Gowen, which was on the facing page. It's a somewhat confusing allegory. In the foreground what appears to be a muscular working man is punching a wealthier man, his blow having knocked a top hat off his head. It is not at all clear if one of these people is specifically to be seen as good and the other bad, though the politics of The Town Crier and its readership would probably have meant sympathy for the wealthier man. Meanwhile, near the bottom is a skull, an empty bottle, and a spilled-out deck of cards; people except for one woman at right are all turned away from the Star of Bethlehem (upper right), looking and reaching toward the dollar sign at upper left. |
