A vintage exhortation urges a twenty one year old to be a man who honors both parents. It calculates the cost of raising a child at twenty five thousand dollars and insists the son must live up to that investment by taking responsibility, shouldering burdens, and bearing his father’s and mother’s sacrifices with mature, cheerful resolve.
A Western Kansas paper prints a comic wedding report with Victoria Merrill and Edward Pest, awkwardly confessed by a nervous correspondent. The piece parodies wedding prose, noting the bride’s white dress, the groom, guests, and the editor’s plea to stop writing weddings. Also included are classified snippets about a steam tugboat for sale and a Ladies Hospital Association meeting at Elk's Home with dues request.
