This issue features three serials and short fiction. The lead story, "Recaptured Love" by Frank Kenneth Young and Charles B. McCray, centers on film actor Gaston Maurine's return to Paris after rejecting lucrative Hollywood contracts. He discovers his lover Triona has become indifferent and promiscuous during his absence. After failed attempts to win her back through jealousy tactics, Gaston orchestrates a screening of their first film together at a private theater. Watching their old performance rekindles Triona's original passion, and they reconcile in an embrace during the film's finale. Joseph Lichtblau contributes "Charlie, the Half W." (title partially obscured). Kay Carroll's "One Busy Day" concludes in this issue. The remaining contents are largely illegible in the OCR, though a letters column is mentioned.
Each page has its own page — the cartoon, who’s in it, and what the satire means.
