I was so moved by what a good sister Beth had - then I found said sister's Dear Santa letter as well... and I'm thinking Beth may want to reconsider letting her sister have custody of her doll, even temporarily.
(sources: The Knoxville Sentinel, December 7, 1901, and December 19, 1903.)
#dear santa#1900s#history#knoxville#tennessee#kids#siblings#dolls#christmas#I've so far not found any information suggesting what the cause of Beth's disability may have been#but she appears to have remained disabled throughout her life#census information shows she was considered 'unable' to work and had never been employed outside the home#she had no formal schooling but was able to read and write suggesting she was educated at home#neither she nor Anna (who worked in a doctor's office) ever married and lived together their whole lives#Beth lived until 1970 and Anna until 1989

Tonka has been humanely euthanized following the onset of acute pain and severe swelling in his left forelimb last week. He was 46 years old, making him the second-oldest bull African bush elephant in North America. He was the largest land animal in North America. He was also a beautiful, captivating, and good-natured animal. My sincerest condolences go out to his keepers, and to everyone to whom he brought joy, like he brought me every time I saw him.
Rest easy, big buddy.

Japan Pavilion Painting Robot, 1982 World’s Fair, Knoxville, TN. In the waiting area of the Japan Pavilion, the "Painting Robot" skilfully draws patterns chosen by guests. "Japan, no longer a tiny nation struggling to recover from defeat, had created the world’s second-biggest economy, and had just surpassed the United States to become the world’s biggest automaker, becoming a serious rival on the global market for several U.S. products. Highlighting their technological wizardry, Japan created a pavilion offering both a virtual and heart-stoppingly realistic bullet-train ride and a painting robot with a flair for semi-abstract art. It was just a symbol of what Japan had learned to do with robots in factories." – 1982 Worlds Fair in Hindsight, Knoxville History Project.
