The issue contains two stories: "The Secret Letter," in which Tom Mix must protect a secret letter while danger and death pursue him across the plains, and "Black Jack," a Fightin' Forbes story by Walter Farmer set in the rough town of Brimstone, where Forbes confronts gambling corruption at the Last Chance Casino and must deal with a dangerous criminal wielding a blackjack. In the Tom Mix story, his wonder horse Tony helps him escape pursuers by responding to a whistle, while Mix takes refuge in a house where he must evade both Ponce and his henchmen who seek to force him to give up the letter.

When someone steals the porch right off Saddle-Head's ranch house, he rushes to the sheriff for help—only to get a lesson in the perils of leaving valuable property unattended. This lighthearted 1951 western tale from Tom Mix Western #45 serves up frontier humor with a punchline that'll make you groan.

Cowboy Cal Is Heckled!
1 pp · Humor, Western-Frontier

Cowboy Cal takes the stump to campaign for public office, only to find his speech disrupted by a pair of hecklers determined to break up his remarks about wheat production. When Cal's quick wit turns the tables on his tormentors, the crowd roars its approval—proving that sometimes a candidate's sharpest weapon isn't his platform, but his tongue.

The Mischievous Squirrel

Young Tumbleweed Jr. sneaks his mischievous pet squirrel Bushy Tail into the schoolhouse, hoping to hide it from the teacher—but the creature's irrepressible nature and an unfortunate arithmetic lesson about nuts send the whole day spiraling into chaos.
