Hey, have any of you noticed a change in the material your magazines are made of? I think they are recycling, which is a good thing except for the fact that it feels really weird in my hands.
By the way, I’m always watching you.
why don’t they have crossword puzzles in the new ones…..
my dad’s in Dec 1938 in the pic with Uncle Dan Beard- What a wonderful time to have experienced Scouting!!
I wish magazines were still like this

I like Feb 1931 that is when the peewee stories were first introduced
