Virtue rewarded and wisdom on street corners
A speaker argues that moral virtue and merit are rewarded, contrasting successful figures like Bert Walker with wise men who philosophize on tariffs and finance. He notes that clever critics fail to apply knowledge to everyday life, asking why the “wise-acres” lack power and jobs. It mocks lawyers, statesmen, umpires, financiers who never translate theories into action.

Meeting After 42 Years Rekindled By Telegraph Pioneers
In Kansas City a luncheon at the Hotel Baltimore brought together Theodore Cook, Western Union’s Western division head, and Frank A. Faxon, longtime Lawrence resident. Their reunion revived memories from 1863 when Quantrill’s raid disrupted Lawrence, and telegraph wires soon connected the town to the outside world. The event sparked reflections on prohibition, politics, and notable local figures, including Judge Brewer, Senator La Follette, and biographical tributes to Mr Foss.
