The Army Officer and the Board of Censorship on Sensibility
A city social scene centers on an army officer and two prominent women who discuss people they've met and places they've visited. They praise many traits but conclude the key quality is sensibility, proposing horse sense as a compulsory art amid society’s rush to wealth, education, and status. The piece concludes reflecting on the rarity of true sensible people. The San Antonio Light.

Navy camping plan at Lake Geneva with strict discipline
The Navy Department will run a camp with a chief radio electrician and chief quartermaster as instructors and eight mess attendants, two for officers. Cooks, buglers, a drummer boy, and Red Cross doctors will wear naval uniforms as a military display. Navy officers push strict discipline and no dining away from the camp with limited recreation. Mrs. Scott and Mrs. Barnett plan a quick inspection visit. Girls recruits face increased study and end-of-course exams.
