Lines to Be Remembered in a Cheery Tone

A fragmentary quotation mosaic parodies social manners with wit and sarcasm. The piece echoes the idea that generosity lacks grace when it clings to personal gain and mocks romantic declarations through a coined definition by Z. R. C. and a biting Boston Transcript glimpse.

Paradise for criminals and the police

The piece argues U S crime thrives due to lax policing and graft. It cites 1918 New York murders six times London and 1916 Chicago murders far higher than England and Wales, blaming politicized police and urging merit-based appointments backed by voters to root out crime.

Tribute to the Clematis

A brief meditation on clematis as a distinct climbing plant, noting its unique growth patterns and interactions with different surroundings and companion flowers, with a gentle praise of its versatility and beauty.
