Ha Ha Comics #64

In this tall tale from 1949, Grandma Numonya recounts to young Teepee Tim how his ancestor Teepee Tim the First helped an Indian tribe find their way across unfamiliar lands by following the sun, eventually leading them to a frozen wasteland where the clever youth devises an ingenious solution to light their path forward. When the tribe becomes stranded in endless darkness, Teepee Tim tosses brave warriors high into the sky with torches to guide their journey—and those torches, it turns out, are still burning up there today.

When a mouse sends his girlfriend screaming, a young inventor named Mr. Square decides to build a better mousetrap—using an unconventional bait that might just solve Tommy's problem and win back his friendship. But when the trap works a little *too* well, the cure threatens to be worse than the disease in this 1949 humor romp.
