My Little Margie #50

Margie gets involved in a scheme where her friend Ella convinces her to lie about borrowing a doll, claiming they need it for a map to find a diamond hidden in an old house's kitchen. When Margie's father discovers the deception, he decides to take action by calling in an art professor—who happens to have an ape that can paint—to teach Margie a lesson about honesty. The issue also includes "Captain Corey's Curiosity Corner," an educational feature covering puppet play techniques and Japanese domestic architecture.
