I Give You Texas by Boyce House
The essay recalls vaudeville in Memphis at the Orpheum with stars like Bernhardt Eva Tanguay and James J Corbett. It laments readers who value understanding over speed and notes old prices from 1931, such as East Texas gasoline at 9 cents a gallon and hamburgers at a dime.

Food For Thought from Gustine preacher on peace and faith
Minister W. Willis questions how Congress and local leaders seek protection through scouts and the military while urging Christians to rely on God's word for peace. He cites Acts 20 28 Eph 1 22 23 and Acts 2 38 47 urging faith and obedience to form the Lord's church and influence nations toward peace. The piece ends reflecting on prices and a plea for turning swords into plowshares.
