A fragment from a wartime column critiques President Wilson and writers who lament their impact. It cites 1,500,000 dead in the war and questions civilization’s response while mocking posturing and American policy toward Mexico.
In reminiscences from Clark county and York district, the author recounts early schooling and beloved teachers from Miss Emma Bangs to John Royce. He recalls Pres Bradbury, Allen Gard, and the impact of teachers on his life, alongside political notes on county superintendents and personal losses. The piece closes with notice of a free Osteopathic Clinic in Washington D.C. hosted by Dr. G. B. Lord.

A person lies still with nostril holes for breathing while hair is slicked back and salad oil protects skin. Plaster covers the face in seconds, then must be carefully removed without any movement.
A humorous reminiscence critiques rigid spelling rules and their exceptions. An anecdote recalls a professor and a clever pupil named Gillies, highlighting mispronunciations and the quirks of orthography in a schoolroom anecdote from Youth's Companion.
