A verbose meditation on the superiority of a firm backbone, contrasted with a satirical view of invertebrate men and women. It contains wartime medical statistics from 1916 to 1917, plus assorted domestic hints about cleaning, cooking, and household tips, ending with a humorous line on a husband hiding a lover’s items.
A quirky collage of jokes and mock dialogues features lines about war bonds and thrift stamps, patter from a cartoonish set including paw and Luke McLuke, with aside notes about weather, preachers, and small town foibles. The piece riffs on everyday cheer and public notices, mingling names, places, and playful quips.
