Across continents, leaders address looming crises in economic and military realms. United States, Britain, and France weigh policy moves as Mussolini and Franco allies shift, while industrial powers like Germany and Japan press for strategic gains and trade shifts before year end.
A noisy, fragmentary page parodies politics and culture with mocks of taxes and speed, reviews the Anthony Returns novel, lists titled Ten Greatest Pests, and critiques the League of Nations elevator metaphor. It mentions Breire, Marches, Gloria Grennson, Herbert Marthel, and other figures in a collage of opinions and satire.
An advertisement offers a satin shirtwaist frock pattern by Crystal or contrasting buttons, with sizes 16 to 42 and yardage details. It promotes elegant fabrics, fashionable collars, and long sleeves, and instructs sending fifteen cents for the pattern with size and address details to the Sewing Dress Pattern Dept in New York City.
Fragmentary text discusses countries and their rivers, habitations, and Wisconsin familiarity. It mentions knowing and loving diverse places and possibly a traveler’s perspective on sea, coast, and bearings. No clear events or names emerge. The passage appears exploratory and philosophical rather than reportable news.
A fragmentary, heavily distorted text discusses savage actions and reactions in a colonial context. It references Hat Jo Ht Ho, British embassies, and allegorical references to Italy and Egypt while hinting at perceived contempt and crumbling civilizational norms. The tone remains accusatory and sweeping amid garbled phrases.
A fragment discusses genius as more than technical perfection, citing mental and spiritual harmony. It compares athletic feats to artistic moments when performers seem touched by madness, producing extraordinary, almost superhuman results beyond mere technique.
A report on Sir George Grier, age eighty four, described as a linguist who catalogs hundreds of dialects spoken by Unesward communities in English lands. He prepared NW alphabet for the tongues and recorded words locals had spoken but seldom wrote, before studying the dialects properly.
The Postum Company invites readers to request a full week’s supply of their health drink. Send a written request to receive the Postum free, as advertised in this paper. The offer promises no cost for a week’s supply to any applicant.
The fragment seems to reference most people missing the moment when age or an event arrives, suggesting a general observation rather than a specific news item. No identifiable persons, organizations, or places are readable to confirm a factual record.
Odd kitchen guidance mixes food prep with refrigeration advice and odd cautions. It mentions cleaning electric refrigerators monthly and using bicarbonate solution, with scattered notes on roasting beets, ironed fabrics, and asbestos safety for stoves. The fragmented text reads like an unedited domestic column from a bygone era.
In the Pacific a four year old girl from San Fracelscn nearly drowned while wading toward a pool aboard the Japanese Hee Tatsute Maru. Thirteen year old Petcy Stoneham leaped into the water, pulling the child to safety.
Fragmentary report describes a rock forest in the Antipan range of Pere at about 14 000 feet. Marine shells embedded in ground mark ancient seabed. A nearby pure rock salt mountain is noted. The passage references a prehistoric site and historical names, but details are unclear due to garbled OCR.
