A long composite spreads from poem fragments to wartime essays urging home gardens to feed troops, with anecdotes of heroism and moral tales. It includes a campaign against German goods, a Swiss boy’s cow rescue, and fables about kindness and resilience in wartime Europe.
The piece ponders the true cost of victory beyond money, warning a German occupation and loss of independence would follow if the Allies fail. It contrasts civic peril with patriotic resolve and includes snippets on prohibition in Denver, fruit as essential, and a comic parable about being one's own grandfather.
