Mr/ FUTURE? — z '>— YE S - A4ANST *4 EXCEPT k ,a tIW-Adventure'Club -xahL fIM ‘ Kit Karson wishes to thank the hundreds of boys and girls who wrote him that they missed him at the party at the Rialto last Saturday. His sprained ankle is prac tically well, and he hopes that at the NEXT party he will have the pleasure of meeting the club members. The Bird Contest is ached-, uled to start on Monday. All of the club members planning to enter the contest are warned to SAVE the papers. W e will be glad to supply pictures that are lost ‘through no fault of your own, but we will not be able to hand out entire sets. Jutet be cause you decide at the C ■' - - ISb ■* v a WILSON SHAY last minute to compete. Os course, if Little Sister chews up your set that’ll be different. It happened to one of our contestants, in the An imal Contest. Seems to us (thinking it over) that the Big Brother in question never did send in a book, even after we had supplied those de stroyed by the baby. She must have gotten a taste for printed pictures. Our pictures today are of Wilson Shay, 213 Eleventh St. S. W., and Alice Greenhorn, 438 Warner St. N. W. Gets Thrill Wilson writes that he has never had his picture in the paper, and he expects to get a big thrill out of seeing it in the column. Well, here’s his thrill, and we hope it is up to expecta tions. He writes: "I am sending you my pic ture, and I hope very much you will put It in the paper. I have never had my picture in any paper in my 'ife, and it will be a thrill to have it in The Washington Times. I have a cousin up in the Shenandoah Valley in Virginia, who says she wants to join the club. I have lost my membership card and sending you an addressed and stamped envelope. Would you please send me another card?” We will be very glad to send Wilson his new card. We don’t mind in the least replacing lost cards, but we ask that when you need ’em you send us a stamped and addressed envel ope. It saves work here, and is a gentle reminder to you to be more careful of your cards. Alice, who is just 10 years old, says she likes The Wash ington Times better than any other paper not only in Wash ington but in the world. That’s the way we like to hear you talk. We think our paper is Adventure Club Editors Please enroll me as a member of The Washington Times Adventure Club. Name Address Age Mail this application to Kit Karson, Washington Times, Washington, D. C. pretty good ourselves, and ws like our judgment confirmed. Sends Poem Alice says: “I can hardly wait every night for the paper to come. I like Blondie and Little Annie Rooney best of all the comics.** Here is a “Bonnie” poem Alice composed: “My bonnlo lies over the ocean My bonnle lies over the sea My Bonnie is taking a trip And its all up with me." Elizabeth Knott, 606 Twenty second St. N. W., writes: “I thought I’d write you and let you know how much I ap> predated your putting my name in your column. I’ll bet I was the proudest kid in the world when I read the Adventure Club column that night. I like all The Washing ton Times funnies but none can equal Popeye. He is so ALICE GREENHORN crazy that he is funny. “I know several of the Ad venture Club members. Dorothy Cunningham, a friend of mine, said she was going to ’join the club. I hope she does because she is a very nice girl and you will like her very much. I will send you my picture as soon as I have one that is suitable.” Thelma Carter, 410 Fifteenth St. N. E.: “ I would like to join the Adventure Club. I read your column in The Washington Times every evening and enjoy it very much. Many of my friends have already joined and have told me about it. Dorothy Busey is one of my friends. Her name was in the paper not long ago. I am 13 years old and go to the Eliot Junior High School. I think that The Times is the best paper in town. All the funnies are so good that I don’t know which one I like best. I hope Mrs. Meany doesn’t get IJttle Annie Rooney?” Francis Fontaine, 319 H St. N. E.: “I am 9 years ol d and in the third grade at the Ludlow School. I wish to enter the Adventure Club and will you please send me my card as soon as possible as I wish to tell everyone that I am one of the members of the club. My brother wants to enter, too. His name is Richard and he is 8 years old. We love to hear Kit Karson sing over WJSV. F. De Marco, 1449 V St. S. E.: "Please enroll me as a mem ber of the Adventure Club. I have been wanting to join for sometime. I read the column every day and enjoy it very much. I also enjoy Kit Kar son every time he broadcasts over WJSV. I am 12 yearw old and in the sixth grade St. Teresa’s School. I have many friends in the club.”
