What’s In This Issue
* FICTION

First of two parts. Maybe, like some of us, you’d rather save this and wait for next month’s installment and read the two together.
52. Kismet Margaret Cousins
54. The Horse with the Fancy Hat. Sylvia Dee
Leaves you wish a nice kind of feeling. Makes the world seem a pleasanter place.
58. The Letter William Brandon
Tricky!

64. Oh, Brave Old World. Robert Paul Smith
* ARTICLES AND FEATURES
8. Memory Lane. The Staff
13. Thumbing Through. Laura Z. Hobson

14. Town Hall. The Editors
16. The College Quiz Bowl

There’s been so very much written on this subject that we haven’t been at all sure one more piece was warranted. Unless you ask for more, there won’t be any.

On the other hand, here are two subjects not enough written about.
114. Assignment in Hollywood. Ruth Harbert
133-134 Are Storm Windows Worth the Money? Truman Henderson.
Many racketeers are in the storm window business. Don’t buy any storm window until you’re sure of what you’re going to get. This piece is intended to help you.
