THE NEW YORK TIMES, December 26, 1924
- Babbs Switch, Oklahoma school house fire disaster
The top of the front page has a one column heading:
"TEACHER GAVE LIFE TO SAVE CHILDREN AS 33 DIED IN FIRE" with subheads. (see) Coverage on the Christmas eve fire at the Babbs Switch rural school house near Hobart, Oklahoma. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this World famous publication.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 26 pages, minor irregularity along the spine, a few margin tears on inside pages, generally nice.
