A historical poem and editorial barrage critiques fundraising for a large church. It praises the ornate sanctuary while condemning the Ladies' Aid for bearing the financial burden and questions if men shouldered less toil. The piece also notes political rhetoric on local option and calls voters to scrutiny.
The graphic marks its eighteenth volume as a young woman contemplates reaching “of age.” The remark ties the publication milestone to a cultural rite of passage and suggests a light social tone.
