Metepilehed notice describes daily publication with a nine cent mail option and annual rates. It lists subscription costs and advance payment terms, signed by A. Mawker the pale toler.
A brief reflective note invokes biblical Luke 2 29 and medieval sounding phrases on death and sleep. The text blends religious cadence with personal musing and ends with a cryptic tag Richer and archaic phrases. It reads as a contemplative, devotional fragment rather than a news item.
A Wheeler editorial writer under Geeson argues against overbearing supervision of girls by school authorities and mothers. The piece notes 400 letters to parents urging proper sleep exercise and food, contends moderate indulgence in pleasures is beneficial, and asserts some mothers are delinquent while many simply ignore the supervisor’s notes. The author critiques the idea that a “supervisor” should dictate youth behavior and warns against excessive policing of adolescence.
A fragmented reflection on mothers and fathers within religious life and public discourse. The piece notes concerns about delinquent behavior and guidance, contrasting moral standards with everyday winter worries and social expectations. It highlights debates over parental influence, duty, and community norms amid a weary domestic tone.
The piece discusses how radio entertainment may shift church and theater attendance, influence clothing trends, and affect social habits while noting no clear outcome. It also reports December U S gasoline production hitting record levels with high kerosene output and a drop in retail gasoline prices despite demand.
Washington reports sport business expanding into major industries. Baseball and boxing dominate profits with vast audiences and stock-like trading for clubs. Dempsey earns multimillions as promoters and managers share in boxing wealth, while equipment manufacture and ball production support a multi-billion dollar national pastime.
A fragmentary melodrama parody features a blustering druggist and social oddities. The dialogue mocks gender, work pace, and mass meeting chatter, lampooning everyday pretensions and the hectic claims of a modern woman with comic ineptitude.
A damaged OCR fragment references a funeral set for tomorrow at 11 oclock. It also contains garbled phrases about Marines, Adam and Eve, a town, a crossword, and a stranger in Chicago with a pedestrian inquiry.
A reader’s Q and A sheet from the Bureau of Standards covers topics from inaugural ball histories to gold prices, Bible distributions, atomic structure, zoo diets, glacial deposits, beneficiary designations, a Lady Ursula book, and pasteurization. It presents brief fact answers with names, places, and figures, reflecting a general knowledge Q and A format.
The text explains that disease germs in milk die after thorough pasteurization and immediate chilling to prevent recontamination, making pasteurized milk the safest to consume.
