This issue of Candy features two main stories: "Will Bragg," in which a boastful character named Bragg claims to be truthful like George Washington but is forced to admit he lies, discovering that honesty pays off; and a story in which Candy and her friends go on a school trip to Noah's Ark but encounter creepers that damage their car, leading them to rebuild it in time for the carnival. The issue also includes various advertisements and service announcements typical of 1950s comics.

Candy decides to embrace a health craze and drags her reluctant friends on an ambitious nature hike to a historic bridge, but the outing becomes a comical test of endurance as the gang struggles with exhaustion and blistered feet. When Candy finally reaches the bridge she's been so excited about, her enthusiasm meets an unexpected—and soggy—consequence that leaves everyone reconsidering the benefits of fresh air and exercise.

When Candy and her classmates build a Swiss chalet booth for the school carnival in Ted's cellar, they hit a snag: it's too big to move upstairs. After dismantling it to transport piece by piece, disaster strikes on the drive to the school gym—and the reassembled booth looks nothing like what they planned. With the carnival already underway and their prize hopes fading, Candy devises a last-minute transformation to save the day.
