Disjointed Topics Highlight Early 20th Century Trade and Education
A fragmentary piece discusses disarmament in Montgomery County near Boyds and Poolsville, Weyler’s reconcentration system, and the value of agricultural education.

Queens teachers trapped by pictorial fraud scheme
A large number of women teachers in Queens public schools were solicited by a smooth young man posing as a publishing house agent. He offered Kipling novels as a bonus for a three month subscription paid up front, then left many teachers with contracts for a year and balances owed. Teachers alerted the publisher, who denied involvement, and many cancelled deliveries. A similar scam previously affected Frederick residents.
