The notice from St Johnsbury Caledonian in Vermont lists subscription terms for one year at 41.50. It appears as a damaged OCR fragment indicating class mail handling and postal details.
A collection of rambling opinions and wry observations on postwar life. Notes on automobiles, cigar prices, shoveling walks, politics, censorship, Prohibition, editors, and the Peace Conference. Casual jabs at Hindenburg, Bolsheviks, and the Kaiser mingle with domestic chores and aging furniture.
A long, satirical column argues against Bolshevism and for the Prohibition amendment, insisting unemployment won’t rise, breweries won’t shut, and emigrants should abstain from liquor. It warns of social decay, defends temperance, and counters anti prohibition critics with a call to uphold the law and moral order.
A robust critique argues Americans should feed liberated peoples first and withhold Germany aid until war crimes are addressed. It condemns German leaders, cites atrocities in Belgium, and asserts that humanitarian duty favors conquered nations and displaced groups over the Kaiser’s regime.
An advertisement touts BI shoe soles with sturdy construction and comfort, claiming lasting durability after months of use. It highlights water resistance and a tough, neuron-like material, praising many styles and the partnership with Goodyear Tire & Ail Company in Akron, Ohio and Wingfoot Heels guaranteed to out wear outer heels.
A Republican campaign broadside and counterattack debate flood the era with mudslinging against Democrats led by Wilson. The piece rebukes Hearst style crusades and mocks petty partisan rants while praising Democratic wartime mobilization and questioning GOP leadership and cohesion.
A Washington based weekly supply from the Republican National Committee is dismissed as wasteful publicity aimed at diminishing the party's prestige. The office labels the material childish and out of date and regards it as ineffective propaganda.
A writer reflects on how the Pacific voyage dissolves the idea of a distant Far East. The Near West emerges as Japan, Korea, China and more approach America by sea. Religion, culture, and humanity form the common ground, urging open dialogue rather than clashing civ ilizations. A call to bridge gaps through understanding rather than doctrine.
