War Thoughts and Peace Reflections in a Snowbound Letter
A reader letter from Edna V. Funderburk muses on the first snow as a symbol of purity while linking it to World War I's bloodshed. The piece contemplates whether nations’ fates hinge on divine justice and moral cleansing, ending with hope for peace when the last gun is fired and soldiers return home. It is followed by brief notices: a Hartford court case for liquor sales to soldiers and a sales pitch for Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
