Uncle Wiggily’s Bold Fire Trick Outs Bad Cat

In a bedtime tale Uncle Wiggily feigns a Boy Scout trick to escape a hungry Bob Cat. He rubs two dry sticks to create friction, lights one, and burns the cat’s nose, allowing the rabbit to flee. The sly fox returns, and the episode ends with a promise of more adventures and a bitter medicine tale to follow.

The Poet of the People Edgar A Guest

A compact fragment from Edgar A Guest features a playful couplet about romance and vanity. It contrasts a peacock’s pride with a man’s conceit while noting social teasing and the lure of young smiles. A dated copyright tag marks 1938.
