In "My Little Margie's Boy Friends," Margie becomes upset when a boy she's been seeing refuses to wear a sweater she spent two weeks knitting for him, calling it "the laughing stock of the prom." She vows to find another date and plans to attend a dance with a boy named Harvey, but her schemes to make her original boyfriend jealous backfire when he doesn't show up as expected. Later, when Margie runs into her girlfriend Hilda at the dance hall, they discover their boyfriends Corny and Herk are also there with dates, leading to various romantic complications and misunderstandings throughout the evening. The story concludes with scenes of Margie at home, where she and a friend encounter each other on a street at night before gathering at Hildegarde's house for dinner and sandwiches.

Margie discovers she's descended from European royalty—or so a letter claims—and lets the news go straight to her head, treating her friends and admirers with sudden snobbish disdain. When one of her boyfriends decides to investigate the source of her newfound nobility, he uncovers the truth behind her sudden transformation in "Margie a la Royale."

When Vern finds himself tasked with winning a Chamber of Commerce election by rallying support for a charity clothes drive, he enlists Margie's boyfriends to help—but a series of well-meaning mishaps threatens to unravel his plans entirely. As funds and formal wear go missing in the shuffle, Vern discovers that sometimes the hardest work speaks louder than any campaign promise. A heartwarming tale that proves good intentions and genuine effort can win the day in the most unexpected ways.

Date Doldrums
5 pp · Humor, Teen

When Margie's cousin Betty arrives for a visit, the boys compete for her attention—but a series of scheming phone calls and fake messages turns the evening into a dating disaster. As each group of fellas tries to outwit the others to score the best dates to the dance, their plans hilariously collapse in on themselves, leaving everyone scrambling and nobody happy. It's a 1956 teen comedy about what happens when too many boys, too much ambition, and not enough honest communication collide on one crazy night.

Standing Room Only

Freddie's tired of competing for Margie's attention with a constant parade of other suitors, so he finally decides to take a stand—only to discover her "plans" for tomorrow involve an entirely different kind of standing around than he had in mind. Harvey eggs him on throughout, but sometimes the courage to speak up lands you in exactly the situation you were trying to avoid.

From Bread to Worse

Hildegarde and Daisy swear off rivalry to enter the Wheaty Bread Company's Miss Centerville contest—until competitive instincts kick in and they each convince their families to buy loaves in bulk to rack up contest entries. After two weeks of downing sandwich after sandwich, the girls find themselves facing an unexpected obstacle at the contest finale, one that neither anticipated when the competition began.

Verse and Verse
1 pp · Humor

Poetic Pete is so absorbed in writing a poem that he turns down his friend's invitation to the juke joint, insisting he's nearly finished his work. When Bill asks to see it, Pete's unconventional approach to verse becomes immediately apparent—with hilariously awkward results.
