The Town Slouch by Ellis M Clarke
The piece humorously notes a chap may intend to act yet stay moral and straight. It jokes about the printing office devil keeping the supposed stone clean and mocks British and French corn meal compared to flour. It ends with a remark on wartime music.
War era wordplay and homefront contrasts in brief
A collage of wartime notes mocks fashion and manners while praising discipline. References to Senator LaFollette hair, munition workers restricted social behavior, and spark dangers with powder mix satire with domestic economy notes on a war loaf price and a market report. The piece notes broomstick drill by soldiers and Uncle Sam’s pledge to purge the Kaiser.
