A jumble of poems and anecdotes blends verse about fate and happiness with comic vignettes and schoolchild chatter. The page includes marriage notices, party reports, church remarks, and social events, naming individuals and local venues in a busy roundup.
Owner reports a lost pocket book found in the public square area near the Metro. Contents include hair pins, a glove buttoner, bills of accounts, cream checks, wallpaper samples, Adam’s Pure Pepsin, small change, three stamps, and calling cards. Owner will feel grateful on return.
