Comment: The dates are not currently matching, 1907–1913, but then lower it states it was published past 1924? How is it related to the Lyceum movement? Also is the "Lyceumite and Talent" and "Lyceumite World" related publications, its not clear. Still needs clean up work. PigeonChickenFish (talk) 00:19, 10 January 2026 (UTC)
