...Burlington, Vt. Wintering at Phoenix, Ariz. Vermonter Lane's query about the "meaningless fragments" can never be answered. Now that the "mystery" is dispelled, not even the Cuneo Press typesetters could honestly say how little or much sense or sensation they derived from setting the disjointed Coolidge paragraphs.

"Any such policy of preference," said the Secretary, "must be based on quality. We can never ask the people of this country in the long run to pay a high price for the mere sake of Empire preference unless the butter offered them is of the highest quality. After my experience today I have only praise for the quality of Australian butter...
...much talk about the invasion of Oxford by Americans and this is so frequently blamed on the Rhodes Trust, that I hope that you will pardon me for seeking to correct any possible misapprehensions.
