LONG DIARY OF A DOCTOR’S SON (With a Moral) By K. L. Brooks The sure cure for a “ blue Monday” or a “ black Friday” and a real entertainment for a group of friends when read aloud. Not a dry page in it. The “DIARY OF A DOCTOR’S SON” was actually t a k e n from diaries kept by the au thor when a lad. Some years ago, the strikingly funny things were type written and copies given to friends in the hopes of giving them “hys terics.” It did the work and was used by them to amuse many groups who wanted an hour of wholesome f u n . The r e p e a t e d urging of friends has led us to print it with a few “il lustrations.” Attractively b o u n d , printed in large clear type on good paper. Price 25 cents, postpaid.
