Let's Explore Your Mind by Albert E Wiggam
A Cedar Rapids Gazette reader asks why women like to see men in bathing suits more than men see women. Wiggam wryly notes the question stumps him and invites readers to write in. A Purdue study finds running a school like a city government improves law obedience but brilliant students are not more law-abiding.

Oxfords Dodgson and the Alice in Wonderland tale
The Thames runs through London to the North Sea while upstream reaches Oxford home to a historic university. In 1862 Charles Dodgson, later known as Lewis Carroll, planned a boat trip with the Liddell sisters Lorina Alice and Edith and began a tale about Alice who falls underground. The story was left unfinished as the day ended and a leaflet offer followed.
