A motivational piece urges resilience amid hardship. It cites Patrick Henry and Kipling to urge perseverance, self belief, and steady work toward a brighter future. It encourages keeping busy, believing in honest effort, and maintaining courtesy, generosity, and hope as a better day approaches.
Editorial notes challenge Vice-President Coolidge on his eulogy of postwar savings. They argue that apparent reductions from war-time spending reflect demobilization and wartime shifts, not genuine retrenchment.

The piece argues that European famine contrasts with Midwest corn burning, credits Democratic leaders with forging a naval arms conference, and claims Senator Lodge and Republican actions harmed markets. It notes Governor Denny defending constitutional supremacy and Miss Mary E. W. Risteau becoming Maryland State Board of Education member succeeding Warburton.
