Scopolamin hailed as truth extractor in bold claim
A long excerpt extols scopolamin as a truth extracting drug used in San Quentin to force convicts to tell the truth. It lauds the drug as rendering liars unable to lie while maintaining other faculties. The piece then pivots to a separate defense of Latin as a practical auxiliary language for diplomacy and commerce, championed by Willis F. Johnson.

The Class in Latin and World Languages
A discussion compares Volapuk and Esperanto with English postwar progress. Volapuk, created in 1879 by a German, and Esperanto, promoted by a Russian since 1887, claim growing support yet show little observable spread. The piece notes English has advanced remarkably after the war, though universality remains contested by a professor.
