A woman follows her husband down the stairs and sits opposite relatives at breakfast. She asks if he was annoyed after she sharpened a pencil with his razor, to which he replies twice yes, then explains she attempted to write with the pencil after giving up sharing.
A collage of humorous anecdotes and light exchanges from early papers. A traveling golfer in bunkers, a landlord debating rent with new contract terms, college letters and money requests becoming more grammatical, a misheard thermometer joke, and a playful school term mix up.
A light column exchange contrasts Mrs Oldwed asking if husbands discuss their mothers cooking. Mrs Newwed replies that he talks about hers instead, turning on playful marital banter with a wink to motherly influence.
Dialogic fragments depict a satirical conference where Billi the Burg and Dick the Dip banter about protection and influence. A wedding scene follows with a playful exchange between bridegroom and best man about appearance at the altar. Miscellaneous catalog-like phrases appear, including references to a Brontosturaa, Ramayana, Athanisius, Usambara, Neptunism, and a Swiss periodical.
