Glasgows Entertainments. Criticism at Moss Meeting.
Article detailing the criticisms levelled at Moss Empires, Ltd. during the annual shareholders meeting. Among the complaints was a perceived decline in quality of the companys entertainment venues, the success of which, according to the shareholders, was being steadily usurped by rival entertainment venues. The author of the article seems to support the views of the critics, as certain key phrases of the text, such asnot what it should be (in reference to the quality of Moss Empires Ltd. entertainment venues) have a larger font size and are emboldened.

Town Council Jottings.
Town Council Jottings is a very interesting piece of writing from the Evening Times. The piece consists of a narrator explaining the daily activities of a council official, recounted using very poetic, decorated language. It is unclear whether the piece is meant as a satire of the inner goings-on of the city council or as a genuine account of adays work. The obvious disdain towardsthe unemployed worm and apparent fear of a communist revolution seem too controversial to suggest the latter. Moreover, the piece begins with a reference tolast week which might indicate thatTown Council Jottings is part of a satirical serial.

Article from The Eagle detailing the Glasgow Corporations promotion of Superintendent William Waddell to the position of Chief of the City Fire Brigade. The article celebrates the illustrious career of Waddell, proposing that his promotion was very well deserved on account of his long tenure with the service and his varied list of professional achievements. It is also noted that this promotion of a local figure signifies a redemptive decision by the Glasgow Corporation who, according to the author, often ignore theunquestioned abilities of men in their own service and promotesome highly-recommended subordinate from another city.

I Sometimes Forget The Combination Pickard Tells Glasgow Court.
Article from the Evening Times describing the evidence Mr. Pickard gave in court relating to the theft of one of his personal safes, containing around £7000 and a first edition of Robert Burns. At the time of the court case Pickard was 87 years old yet according to the article he was full of humour about the incident andreplied to some of the questions in his characteristically pawky vein. Rather surprising is Pickards admission that, due to strict personal principle, he never revealed the combination of his safes to anyone, including his own wife, and was prone to temporarily forgetting the combinations.

Under the Hammer - The Last of Glasgows Zoo.
Article from the The Evening Times describing the events which took place at the auction of the animals comprising the Scottish Zoo. According to the author, the excitable atmosphere of the occasion seemed to register with the animals as well as the buyers; the collections snakes, for example exhibited a greater degree of animation than the visitor of the zoo was apt to witness in this section on ordinary occasions. A list of the animal dealers and circus proprietors present at the auction is given, as are many of the prices for which various animals were eventually sold.

Municipal Zoological Garden.
Lengthy article written by representative of the University of Glasgows Natural History Department decrying the Town Councils apparently hasty decision to dismiss plans concerning a zoological garden for Glasgow. The writer systematically addresses the concerns of the councillors in opposition to the proposal (Councillor Martin and Councillor Gibson especially), explaining why a zoological garden would be of tremendous benefit to the city as well as a financially feasible endeavour.

Glasgows Opportunity.
Article taken from the Edinburgh Magazine concerning Glasgows opportunity to purchase the animals being sold by Mr. E. H. Bostock from his Scottish Zoo and form a zoological garden to showcase them. The article is very complimentary of Bostock, praising his generosity and his lineage; citing him as one in a distinguished line of entertainment caterers. Conversely, the article attacks the apparently substandard class of councillor at present in the city chambers and the reluctance of the Town Council to enrich Glasgows educational potential; the decision to reject the zoological garden being considered by the Parks Committee being offered as an illustrative example. The writer urges that this decision be reconsidered, stating that great is the shame attaching to our city council if the opportunity be passed over.

My Teddy Bear.
Short rhyming poem in two stanzas entitled My Teddy Bear, which seems to be written from a childs perspective about their pet bear. The poem describes how the bear, once wild and free, is now a beloved pet. Though there is no date of the poems publication, due to its inclusion with articles and letters deliberating on a zoo for Glasgow, it would follow that the poem might be designed to highlight the strong affinity children have with animals and what a tragedy it would be if the rejection of a zoological garden in Glasgow deprived of them of such opportunities to enjoy the presence of animals.

A Civic Zoo.
Article from the Evening Times supporting the decision of the Glasgow Town Council to reject the motion that the possibility of a zoological garden be considered and reported upon by the Parks Committee. Although the author states that there would have been no particular harm in passing the motion, he/she questions the appropriateness of such an expensive hobby during a time of implied economic hardship in Glasgow. They also point out that Glasgows climate would not be hospitable for animals in the way that the climates of continental cities which house zoos are. The writer then concludes that theoretically a municipal zoo is an excellent idea, but [owing to the factors outlined] the time is not yet.

No Public Zoo.
Article from the Evening Citizen providing a detailed account of the rejection of a motion, proposed at a meeting of the Glasgow Town Council, to have plans concerning a new Zoological Department to be remitted to the Parks Committee of the Corporation. The tone of the article seems broadly sympathetic to the cause of Councillor Galbraith, the person who proposed the motion, making clear that in no way was he asking the council commit themselves in any way, but merely to consider remitting the matter to the Parks committee for their consideration. The article describes how, after contentious deliberation over whether or not a fee for entry to the proposed attraction would be imposed, the motion was ultimately rejected by 29 votes to 9.

Continuation of the list of animals available for purchase at The Scottish Zoo auction. The diverse variety of animals on sale and the descriptions which accompany them are indicative of not only the ambitious nature of the zoo when it was in operation but also the practices it engaged in for entertainment purposes, some of which are problematic from a contemporary viewpoint. The Boomer Kangaroo on sale, for example, is described as having been trained to box, suggesting that the zoo did not conform to particularly high animal welfare standards.
