A Washington Post anecdote about a reporter chasing Senator Blank’s alleged divorce ends with a three and a half column cap. A. W. Canning notes tribal distinctions in hair and dress among northern Australian blacks, identifying bachelors by tidy chignon and married men by shaggy, unkempt hair.

A dialogue contrasts proverbs about being early with a modern view from the Washington Star. The exchange notes that early ascent may be disadvantageous for several respected continental builders and mocks the idea that punctuality guarantees good outcomes. A wedding joke injects playful banter about time and romance.
