An evening of readings by William H Head is announced for July 16 at the M E church with Miss Cora Mel Patten helping.

America Beats the World and Fatherland Reflections
A mixed page notes P Ramer and Louis Hums trip to Germany with German-born American Ramer recounting liberal yet strict urban life. It recalls Hudson River travel and Liberty light, rail conductors, tolls, and a strong insistence on obedience tempered by nostalgia for home. The column includes Prairie City praise for Prof D M Kelly and a local wedding report about Fred Dennis and Belle Johnson, plus Knights of Pythias installation and a piano contest thank-you.
