Poetic piece by Highlord Laddie urging defense of the Empire and unity. It honors mothers sisters wives and says courage and patriotism protect the loved ones left behind. It calls for charity toward the homeless and weary and a hopeful end to conflict.
Under Hamiota council auspices the Home Economics Society presents Beatrice Brigden with a week of talks. Sunday sessions at 11 a.m. and 7 p.m. at Oranges Hall and Knox Church outline themes on building homes and girls’ issues. Each day features talks for different age groups, with general meetings and offerings to cover expenses. Public invited.
A speaker boasts of a simple bachelor life with a fixed roof and trusty stove. He describes a small, tidy dwelling with a rusty stove, fair floor, iron bedstead, straw tick, and clean bed clothes. He vows to remain loyal to himself if no one will marry him, ending with a resolve to live alone.
A dated rural poem mixes farm anxieties about drought hail and bumper crops with a blunt antiwar rant accusing a war leader of exaggerated exploits. The speaker contrasts weather woes with boastful claims and ends with a sharp political dig toward wartime propaganda.
