🌷This adorable photo of Yvonne of the Dionne quintuplets is from 1935! The Dionne quints, as they were sometimes called in the press, were the first quintuplets known to have survived their infancy. #GardenParty #ChronAmParty

Take advantage of these warm spring days without the Illinois humidity and bugs by hosting a garden party! Not sure where to start? Perhaps Mrs. Frank Learned's article in the August 3, 1913 issue of the Chicago Examiner might be of use! #ChronAmParty #GardenParty

#OnThisDay in 1945, FDR died. The 32nd president was the longest-serving in American history, and one of the most beloved. These front pages include coverage of his inauguration in 1933, his second election in 1936, WWII coverage from 1941, and his death in 1945. #NDNP #ChronAm

🐻 “Miss Ella Harrington tries to score a hole-in-one though a live brown bear is one of the hazards at the hole on the third green of a Los Angeles, Cal. miniature golf course. The bear has been taught to grab at passing balls by dipping them into honey and rolling them by him.”

Ready for the eclipse? In CT, it is expected to start at 2:11 p.m. At 2:52 p.m., the moon will cover roughly half of the sun before peaking roughly 30 minutes later with 92% coverage. You will have until 4:36 p.m. to sneak outside to catch the tail end of the eclipse.
