Short Stories, Vol. 159, No. 1

Catalog Description This issue features the opening installment of "Fetch Me A Fight!" by Caddo Cameron, a western action story in which Pat Greene pursues a confrontation with "Old Man Trouble." The narrative content itself is largely obscured by OCR degradation. The issue's interior comprises primarily classified advertising and mail-order promotions typical of 1930s pulp magazines: motor maintenance products (Ovrhaul mineral treatment claiming oil and gas savings), correspondence courses in business, accounting, and writing from institutions like LaSalle Extension University and the Newspaper Institute of America, government job civil service preparation, miscellaneous remedies and medical devices, employment opportunities (forest service work, railway positions), and consumer goods (shirts, photographs, dental plates, radio kits). A substantial section promotes writing instruction through the Newspaper Institute, offering a writing aptitude test and explaining their journalism-based training method.
