Uncle Phil relates a reader request about color planning for living room furniture and curtains using a rug chart. The notice advertises Book 1 Sewing for the Home Decorator and No 2 Gifts embroideries at 25 cents each with a tie in leaflet offers and a Chicago address for orders.
The page lists ten quiz prompts with answers. Topics include days in a fortnight, national emblems, weights of dairy, definitions of a counterpane, how bulbs shine, turtle versus tortoise, time abbreviations, Shetland islands, passports for travel, and a Bible proverb about women whistling.
