☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeGirls' Fun and Fashion Magazine is an anthology issue featuring multiple content types for young readers. The comic "Maurice Tizzie's Doggies" follows a girl named Tizzie who catches wild coyotes while trying to round up stray dogs, leading to misunderstandings with the men around her. The issue also includes "Polly Pigtails," a story about girls on a picnic outing who encounter an old man named Mr. Krutch and become involved in solving a mystery or puzzle related to his property. Additional sections cover fashion advice (including "Back-to-School Fashions"), beauty tips on proper toothbrushing technique by Patricia Fair, and instructional content on stockings and craft projects.
A biography of Jack Benny traces his journey from childhood in Waukegan to his early days in the Navy during World War I, then to his rise in Vaudeville and on the radio, with glimpses of his longtime collaborators Mary Livingston, Rochester Van Jones, Don Wilson, Dennis Day, Alice Payne, and Ed Sullivan.
Polly and her friends finish a picnic and decide to pick huckleberries from the property of the notoriously difficult Mr. Krutch—a proposition that requires some clever persuasion. When Mr. Krutch demands exactly half of what they gather as payment, the girls face a mathematical puzzle: dividing berries from two buckets of different sizes so everyone gets a fair share. Can Polly figure out a solution that satisfies the stubborn old farmer and brings home dessert for the evening?
