Fragmented Reflections on Dutch People and War

A dated, stream of consciousness prose contrasts Dutch people and language with vivid personal opinions. The narrator lauds Dutch hospitality, decorum, and self respect, compares national qualities with other nations, and recalls imperialist thoughts and court etiquette. It ends with a religious-tinged musing on the perpetual conflict between spirit and flesh.

Flux of events greets a nation in turmoil and wonder

A collage of disasters and headlines spans from a deadly electric car crash in Gloversville to heat waves in Pittsburg and Boulder. The piece notes labor strikes by Chicago freight handlers, a major rail alliance shift, floods and crop damage in Iowa, high corn prices, and a mine explosion near Johnstown. It also covers a vast international scene from Manila to Bucharest, and mentions the Vatican dispute over marriage and Philippines land.
