A damaged OCR snippet presents a cryptic poetic fragment attributed to Oliver Curwood in a monthly issue. The wording suggests an abstract meditation on life and perception, with references to sky, light, fear, and quiet repetition. The readable text is fragmentary and lacks a clear narrative or event.
In a Portland letter, two prominent thinkers Mayer Williams and Wood discuss gambling. Williams argues major cities cannot suppress gambling by law and urges moral and educational actions. Wood counters for individual improvement and that harsh penalties fail to deter the habit. They debate legality, enforcement, and the role of society.
The text presents a fragmented discussion touching on gambling ethics, moral character, and the influence of heredity, along with a long section praising Zionist aims in Palestine and contemporary political appointments. It references Edgar Pf HN of Portland, legal stances against gambling, and mentions figures like Wood, Clive Wena, and Meir, interspersed with unrelated musings on hair color and classical references. The overall piece reads as a rough OCR excerpt with scattered political and social commentary, lacking a single coherent narrative.
Professor Karl Pearton of London advocates a census of red-haired schoolboys via schoolmasters to test whether red temper is linked to red hair. The notion of prejudice against red hair traces back to the Middle Ages with depictions like Judas painted red-haired, while Lord Macauulay notes ongoing anti-red-hair sentiment.
