Wasps and excuses in old newspaper lore
A mixed excerpt describes a government survey method using a machete to frighten wasps from nests and compares it with fire. It argues that human odor can deter wasps more effectively than burning, then shifts to a lesson on the inexcusableness of excuses, citing H. Clay Trumbull. The Alberta line at the end cites a 16,218 mile province with $9,000,060,000 value.

Squirrel Rises to Defend Nest from House Cat in Germantown Park
A park in Germantown Philadelphia once home to the Wister family hosts a gray squirrel colony now thriving around a colonial house. A tame squirrel bravely confronts a porch cat, leaping to a tree and biting back with aggressive claws.
