A mixed column blends Dr George Crane advice with a case of a widowed mother overindulging her son Bob. The piece warns that double affection can create psychic cripples and urges self reliance, ending with a sales pitch for the 200 point Tests for Good Parents and Crane’s booklet. It also includes a separate real estate sale notice for Butler County with date, property, and sale terms.
