(This is an entry from the journal entitled “Mexico Summer” written by Elizabeth Whipple Lancaster Carsey 80-years-ago)

Sent Mrs. Ruiz cranberries, oive oil and toys.   Hope they are not held up at the border.  Wrote and sent Mrs. Ruiz the recipe for cranberry sauce.  Visited with Pete and Velma – Ate supper with them at the Busy Bee and looked over Christmas Cards at the shop –

Here’s what else was happening 80-years-ago today:

The sixteen Nazis who died in the 1923 Beer Hall Putsch were re-interred in the newly constructed Ehrentempel (honour temples) commemmorating the failed coup attempt.

The Croatian Ice Hockey Federation was established.

A new New Yorker and Saturday Evening Post.

The Committee for Industrial Organization (later the Congress of Industrial Organizations) was created.
