BUSTER BROWN, MARY JANE and the dog TIGE have already won the hearts of thousands with heart-gladdening gambols. Popularized to millions thru R. F.

CHARLEY PUFFY and ARTHUR LAKE have put this series in an enviable place in the comedy sun. No one can look this humanized hippo, Puffy, in the belt and keep a straight face. Nor can they resist the sheik antics of youthful Arthur. They're sure-fire, or rather, sure-explosive.
"Here is a nice little comedy. These comedies
are O.K." ^ ^, ^ ,. w
