The piece humorously critiques a new film about teachers and warns of potential spankings for pupils. It notes a canning process for sensitive machinery reducing warehousing, hopes for job gains, and mentions oyster shortages due to war. It also reports an eye bank being formed to provide corneal tissue, likening it to blood banks and suggesting a hair bank.
