Fragmented excerpts from Temple Telegram column mix satire and speculation

A collection of satirical and opinion notes includes a jab at political processes and Boom makers, Longevity figures, a Cleveland dispatch on Taft Roosevelt politics, praise for humor, geologist Serviss on Earth's iron core, and Bishop Candler invoking the term gringo in a Thanksgiving sermon.

Gringo term traced to Mexican invasion soldiers’ song origin

The piece notes the origin of the word gringo during General Taylor’s northern Mexico invasion. It explains the soldiers’ favorite song “Green grow the rushes” and how natives misheard it, coining the term gringo for Americans. A bakery ad follows offering custom orders by Mrs. Otto Boehme at phone 89.
