FUN AND FANCY FREE

... LOOKING at the new Disney cartoon, Fun and Fancy Free (New Gallery), I felt tempted to adapt Browning:-- What 's become of Disney Since he gave us all the slip? This is not the Disney of Snow White and Pinocchio, of Bambi and Fantasia. This is a rather slapdash double, who has kept on turning up lately in exchange for the old Walt the faulty operator who perpetrated Victory Through Air ...

... Revolutions are Circular n fable Written and Illustrated by R. S. Sherriffs. DLOOD is cheap. Nearly everybody has plenty of it. Thus, it is the lubricant of revolution.

Our Motley Notes

... yfvfef By TOBY O'BRIEN WE shall have heard by now a great deal about the centenary of the Boat Race. The result is, of course, wrapt in mystery as yet, but should Cambridge win again, we shall no doubt be told that the fact that eight young mastodons from the remoter colonies have rowed faster than a similar set from Oxford is proof (if proof were needed) of the decadence of the older ...

IS THERE A DOCTOR IN THE HOUSE?

... IS THERE A DOCTOR IN THE HOUSE Not necessarily a Doctor of Medicine, but one skilled in drawing, with a Degree in Humour.
