☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThe issue contains two stories: "Li'l Rascal Twins" features the twins testing different candy pieces to ensure quality before giving them away to other children, but their plan backfires when a man they meet later reveals he has excellent taste in candy, prompting them to keep their remaining sweets for themselves. "Smarter Than an Owl" involves Pinkie Rabbit seeking advice from Old Oscar the owl about her troubles with Bucky Bunny, who was rude to her; Oscar counsels her about women, but Bucky later takes credit for generously helping Mrs. Beaver by delivering ice cream on her behalf without permission, and when Mrs. Beaver calls looking for payment, Uncle Ted Bear refuses credit—leading Bucky to realize he cannot profit from the deed. The second story concludes with the twins finding a buried treasure chest on a beach, which two men in hats attempt to claim, resulting in a chaotic confrontation over the newfound riches.
When Li'l Genius and Li'l Tomboy land a job distributing free candy samples for a local company, they can't resist testing the merchandise themselves—and keep testing it, convinced that thorough quality control requires sampling every last bar in the bag. By the time they stumble back to report their findings, their honest assessment of the candy's declining quality comes a little too late and a lot too personally.
Eddie Extra has a shot at helping out on a newspaper route, but his deliveries take him to some truly eccentric customers—a fellow named Mr. Muggs, Miss Bird in an unusual spot, and a cave-dwelling bear among them. What starts as a helpful favor quickly becomes a wild ride through an oddball subscriber list that tests Eddie's patience in this lighthearted 1959 romp.
The Li'l Rascal Twins head to the beach hoping to unearth buried treasure, but when a man dressed as a pirate asks them to bury a chest for a game with his nephew, their plans take a wild turn—the twins discover the chest is full of money and refuse to give it back. As chaos unfolds on the beach with multiple treasure chests, fake finds, and unexpected visitors, the twins get tangled up in something far more serious than a simple treasure hunt.
