Newspaper-era proverb about wit and wallets
A garbled set of lines reflects folksy aphorisms on leads to riches and the cost of subscriptions. It hints that cleverness grows while money dries up and mocks efforts to woo or impress, ending with a jab at those who overestimate their understanding.
Splendid Progress at Both Tunnel Portals
Reports from the Moffat tunnel describe underway work on both portals with permanent camps forming. The west portal camp houses 170 workers, with 50 carpenters added at the east portal. transformers and compressors are due late fall, and a full hospital, recreational facilities, and postal services will support crews. The project aims to show efficient, humane treatment of workers and steady bond financing approaching seven million dollars.
