Phillips County Museum News for November 25, 2015

Happy Thanksgiving. Looking back in the PC News 1948 edition this ad caught my attention (my how things have changed) I’m wondering how many people can relate to pin feathers and cleaning the inside of a turkey. Here’s what the ad said “Getting a turkey ready to roast used to be more trouble than getting Junior ready for school. Not these turkeys. These turkeys are really clean. Hardly a pin feather to pick. No singeing to do. No cleaning left to do inside – the turkey is completely ready for stuffing.” As I pop my Thanksgiving turkey in the oven I am REALLY thank-full it does not have to be singed!

Outhouses, owls, and peacock feathers are just a few of the items found on this year’s miniature trees at the PC Museum. Come and take a look! Vote on your favorite tree! Our doors are open Monday through Saturday 10-5.
