Abstract
Between January 1925 and June 1926 the New York Messenger ran a serialized romance story entitled “The Letters of Davy Carr.” The story, set in Washington, DC, centres on the youngest daughter of the middle-class Rhodes family. Caroline Rhodes, a grade-school teacher and a dark and lively beauty with “all the best and worst points of the modern flapper,” alternately fascinates and horrifies the priggish narrator, Davy Carr (Anonymous, Jan. 1925 26). Carr purports to be a well-educated twenty-something man, native of a “little provincial Southern city,” sojourning in Washington, DC, in 1922 to do research for a book on the slave trade. While boarding with the Rhodeses, Carr writes letters to a his war buddy back in New York, describing “colored society” in the nation’s capital, with a focus on the fascinating Caroline (Mar. 1925 146; Apr. 1925 165). Fussed over by her “Victorian” mother and elder sister, Caroline smokes and constantly visits Carr’s room to chat. He describes how she sat in his room, swinging her silk-clad legs with the abandon of a small boy, and regaled [him] in terms piquant and interesting, if a trifle startling at times, with her very modern views of the woman question, fellows, and marriage … it was decidedly refreshing, but I am not sure that it was not more shocking than anything else. (Jan. 1925 27)

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
