My Loves and the Nation in a Patchwork Page
A Chicago Tribune note blends verse by Margaret Eleanor Wilson praising loves of nature with a columnic flow of 1920s social commentary. It touches on college youths at Northwestern, Methodist patriotism, liquor laws, and the 18th Amendment, then shifts to crime trends and murder rates, firearm sales, and a school play critique. It cites Prudential statistics and motor-vehicle fatalities, ending with accident figures.
