Editor argues for making garbage collection unprofitable to curb hog farming growth in King County. Supporters of Coun Mn Tindall’s bill regulate restaurant waste as a concrete remedy to influence the hog industry. The piece presents no theory, only asserted facts.
A reader argues that parental influence shapes children’s minds, warns against crude imagery in films, and urges coordinated action to curb harmful entertainment. The letter also includes wartime assurances and a political plug for the Tindall bill to curb Jap influence in hog raising and garbage collection, framing it as an economic stand against Nipponese penetration.
The piece argues future presidential candidates may come from specialized city schools yet reflect farm origins. It notes Cox and Harding, born in Ohio hamlets, embody old fashioned farm grown leadership. It predicts a shift to less picturesque, city linked rise in coming eras.
The piece notes reversed customs in parts of South America, social distinctions tied to dress in Bolivia, and growing U S trade interest. It cites Montevideo port entries in 1914 and 1915 figures, mentions a proposed transandine railway between northern Chile and Buenos Aires, and estimates a $25 million cost to cut shipping time to interior Argentina by ten days via the Panama route.
A critique argues successful leaders emerge from regular, well-rounded youths not exceptional prodigies. It contends the ordinary boy, tempered by social contact and challenges, develops leadership, resilience, and the ability to “play the game,” unlike narrowly trained specialists. The piece likens this to notable figures and notes skepticism about extraordinary early ability.
A Moscow mill sample tour is described to show only active or conveniently showcased sections. The piece cites shortages of raw materials and machinery, with 1913 data noting 145 cotton and six spinning mills pre war reduced to 64 large mills in Soviet Russia, amid dire clothing and food prospects for 80 million people.
Doctor Crane profiles Mary Elizabeth Pivans a Syracuse candy maker who started at sixteen and built an extensive business. He argues learning reputation and a strong work ethic are forms of capital and praises a self made young woman advancing workers and industry.
A fragmented humorous tirade riffs on gas prices, fashion absurdities, and social quips. It blends jests about fish skin shoes, a shark meal, matrimony jokes, and odd exchanges in a second hand store, revealing a playful, stream of consciousness style.
