A poignant Philadelphia scene follows a young reader who, lacking funds, is helped by a stranger to buy a book about James A. Garfield. The act triggers talk of local readers and educators who promote books on history, biography, travel, and poetry. The piece blends personal detail with a broader call to value reading over streetcorner idleness.

Season Opens for Shepherd College Team and Orchard Warnings
Shepherdstown Collegians held their first workout of the season with about twenty players, electing Brandy Myers captain and outlining practice twice weekly. The schedule includes matches with Martinsburg and Wayne County, as Martinsburg Collegians won 28 26 and both teams promise lively games. Separately, Ohio Experiment Station warns orchard owners that 1922 may see disease outbreaks like apple scab blotch and black rot unless spraying is intensified, urging fungicidal sprays as infection accumulates. The Virginia legislature is expected to lean Democratic with 9 of 14 seats in the House Democrats and 45 of 50 in the Senate Democrats.
