This Week’s Cover
- If those two experts at shooting are not having a relaxing time shooting, why don’t they hire a rowboat and go to sea, thus getting the change that everybody needs on a holiday? It would be even better if they acquired a couple of girls and hired two boats. However, with girls they would probably have more fun in the shooting gallery, and as the subject is now getting confused, let’s change it. Probably it will take Aljalov’s sailor a long time to teach Miss Fumblefingers how to handle that firearm and, after he succeeds, he can then turn her around and teach her to shoot left-handed. By the way, what do you suppose the fair creature thinks she is aiming at, anyway? The answer is that she knows darn well what she’s aiming at. Matrimony.
