- Edward S. Wright.
- ...at the time this paper is written there are more convicts in the three State Institutions than at any previous period, and so it has ever been; the wave of crime ebbs and flows with financial crises.

- What an anomaly we have here! The Schenley Farms District with its wonderful semi-public buildings and magnificent rich men's homes produced by Pittsburgh's millions and these squalid hovels and dilapidated tenements for workingmen--they too a product of Pittsburgh's millions or should I say perhaps Pittsburgh's greed for millions?
- Robert Garland.
- We have exalted the lamp too long, and have been extravagantly wasteful of God's sunlight. We hear a great deal of "Conservation", and it has many applications, but our greatest effort along that line would, in my opinion, be in the proper conservation of our priceless inheritance of God's sunshine.
