In "The Youngster," Woody Woodpecker stumbles into his first real job as an assistant night watchman at the Mustern Costume Company, where his antics immediately clash with the boss’s strict demeanor. With a mix of slapstick charm and quick thinking, Woody proves his worth when he outsmarts two crooks trying to sneak into the warehouse. Bill Weaver handles both art and inks for the story, while John Carey delivers the playful cover.

Woody Woodpecker’s first night on the job as assistant night watchman at the Mustern Costume Company starts off rocky—especially with the boss, Mr. Mustern—but when he outsmarts two crooks in a twist of luck and quick thinking, he might just earn his stripes. With help from his usual crew of misfits, including the ever-awkward Knothead and the scheming Weasel Wormly, the night takes a wild turn that keeps the whole costume shop on edge.
