“Laughs”

In "Laughs," the ever-observant Little Beaver takes a playful jab at his daily bath routine, lamenting the ritual while daydreaming about the freedom of fish. Meanwhile, at the corral, he boasts to Red about his marksmanship—proving it by shooting an arrow into the wall and cleverly drawing a bull's-eye around it. Written by Fred Harman and illustrated by John Hampton, this 1949 adventure from Red Ryder Comics #72 captures the lighthearted spirit of the series, with the cover by John Hampton perfectly framing the moment’s humor.

1st page: A Little Beaver soliloquy, as he goes to bathe in the river: complaining that Red says he must do so every day; and envying fish, who never have to. 2nd page: While hanging out at the corral, Little Beaver brags to Red that he never misses the bull's-eye target on the wall: he demonstates, shooting an arrow in the wall, then drawing a target around it.
