This Scrapbook contains a wealth of newspaper clippings relating to the constantly changing programme of Pickard's Casino Cinema, dating from approximately between 1912 and 1916. Tickets admitting entry to various Glasgow cinemas can also be found, as well as a humorous article relating to an escaped bull entering La Scala Picture-House. Also present is an article detailing Pickard's being honoured by the city carters for allowing them to use the Panopticon for meetings during their strike, as well as a short, presumably semi-autobiographical, story entitled 'The Millionaire's Gratitude'.

Description
An account of the resource
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.
