Extremist rants spark debate and local notes
The column lampoons political extremism around Wilson, Mrs. Galt, and the suffrage movement, mocks sterilization talk, and comments on crime laws. It highlights a Temple Telegram quote on leadership, a Kansas City shooting case, and local items about Rev. Shelton and a Honey Grove burglary with a nod to humor about buttermilk theory.
Baking Powder Biscuits Recipe Promises Superior Bread
A vintage recipe extols baking powder biscuits as far superior to ordinary ones. It lists ingredients including baking powder, shortening, milk, salt, and flour, with instructions to lift flour and shortenings together, form a soft dough, avoid kneading, and bake in a hot oven with space between biscuits.
Reforms and noise debate echoed in Ballinger and beyond
The piece quotes praise for a blue back speller exhibit at the fair and critiques reform efforts as mostly self serving. It laments ongoing reform waves, calls for selective noise limits, and argues that excessive disturbance harms daily life and safety.
