New York AP dispatch reports a mailbag worth of observations on daily life. A study finds women need less sleep than men and people in their 70s sleep less than those in their 60s. Seventy two percent averaged under eight hours, five percent nine hours or more. Fire breaks out in American homes roughly every 49 seconds. The piece notes the tradeoffs of executive life and asks what personal possessions people truly own as others use them more. A New York Visitors Bureau survey shows over half of married men attend conventions with their wives.

A 236 mile Kansas Turnpike from Kansas City to the Oklahoma line showcases Kansas life from industry to agriculture.
