Picnic Misadventures and Old-Time Village Tales
A jumbled column blends picnic woes with domestic excesses, suggesting tame fare spoils a day in the woods. It recounts a Silver Age barbered mix of sandwiches and beverages, then shifts to anecdotes of school alcaldes, a bed prank among judges, temperance unions, and a Indiana church stock scheme.

Boston Silly Mix of Chinatown and Bull Pup Tales
A jumble of comic vignettes and juvenile mischief unfolds in a Boston scene. A Chines e nickname exchange leads to a clerk being overwhelmed, a Highland car ride yields a nickel hoard, and a dog bull pup dispute ends with a stubborn bet. Photographs and family lore close the fragment in a nostalgic, chaotic local mood.
