  • George Orwell Boys' Weeklies
    George Orwell Boys' weeklies You never walk far through any poor quarter in any big town without coming upon a small newsagent's shop. The general appearance of these shops is always very much the same: a few posters for the Daily Mail and the News of the World outside, a poky little window with sweet-bottles and packets of Players, and a dark interior smelling of liquorice allsorts and festooned from floor to ceiling with vilely printed twopenny papers, most of them with lurid cover-illustrations in three colours. Except for the daily and evening papers, the stock of these shops hardly overlaps at all with that of the big news-agents. Their main selling line is the twopenny weekly, and the number and variety of these are almost unbelievable. Every hobby and pastime — cage-birds, fretwork, carpentering, bees, carrier-pigeons, home conjuring, philately, chess — has at least one paper devoted to it, and generally several. Gardening and livestock-keeping must have at least a score between them. Then there are the sporting papers, the radio papers, the children's comics, the various snippet papers such as Tit-bits, the large range of papers devoted to the movies and all more or less exploiting women's legs, the various trade papers, the women's story-papers (the Oracle, Secrets, Peg's Paper, etc. etc.), the needlework papers — these so numerous that a display of them alone will often fill an entire window — and in addition the long series of ‘Yank Mags’ (Fight Stories, Action Stories, Western Short Stories, etc.), which are imported shop-soiled from America and sold at twopence halfpenny or threepence.

  • Bessie Bunter Missing Fortune
    HILDA RICHARDS BESSIE BUNTER AND THE MISSING FORTUNE CHAPTER I A Fright for the Fourth 'RIPPING weather!' 'Gorgeous! ' 'Just the afternoon for taking some snaps!' 'Rather!' 'And for a picnic!' fat Bessie Bunter put in eagerly. 'I say, you know, dud-don't forget the picnic―' There was a laugh from the crowd of merry-looking schoolgirls gathered on the steps of Cliff House School, and Bessie Bunter, the fattest member of the party blinked in indignant surprise. 'Well, what is there to cackle at in that?' she demanded. 'It is a ripping afternoon for a picnic! ' 'Right, Fatima!' agreed Barbara Redfern, the leader of the party. 'And a picnic there shall be, too. But the main object of the outing is to take snaps. That's why I've brought my camera.' As a matter of fact, they all had cameras-except Bessie. Bessie's camera had departed during the winter in exchange for a few shillings to buy tuck. 'Well, what are we waiting for?' the fat one exclaimed impatiently. 'And, I say, where are we going? I hope it's not too far, you know. I'm famished as it is!' There was another laugh at that. Trust Bessie to put her appetite first! The beauties of the afternoon, the thrill of picture-hunting, were considerations which fat Bessie completely ignored. A picnic was in prospect, and a picnic was Bessie's immediate and only ambition. 'We're waiting for Marcelle,' Barbara Redfern explained, and glanced over her shoulder into the school. 'She forgot her camera, and has gone to her study to fetch it.

CONSULTING ROOM CHAT A History of Sexton Blake The legendary Baker Street detective, Sexton Blake, made his first appearance in an inelegant and nondescript short story, ‘The Missing Millionaire’ by Harry Blyth (under the pen-name Hal Meredeth) in the boys’ story paper The Halfpenny Marvel on 20 December 1893. Blake went on to appear in a handful of equally unimpressive stories by Meredeth, and those inauspicious beginnings might have been enough to kill the character at birth, had he not moved, under the title of “Sexton Blake, Detective”, to 2 the newly launched Union Jack story paper in mid -1894. Blessed with a new set of writers, and with Blake’s world expanded to take in his Baker Street base, his customised ‘plane and car, and his new assistant Tinker, the character became the star of the paper, remaining so even after Union Jack became Detective Weekly in 1933.

  • The Queen Mother and Wodehouse: an Unofficial Analysis by Todd Morning
    The quarterly journal of The Wodehouse Society Volume 32 Number 2 Summer 2011 The Queen Mother and Wodehouse: An Unofficial Analysis by Todd Morning s most members of our Society know, the late Queen Elizabeth, A the Queen Mother, was a Wodehouse fan and patron of The Wodehouse Society. So when I learned that The Queen Mother: The Official Biography, William Shawcross’s authorized biography of the Queen Mother, had been published, I decided to find out if it contained any official mentions of P. G. Wodehouse. I was not disappointed. The index includes six Wodehouse references. The first comes from a 1913 letter sent by the young Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon to her brother in which, Shawcross suggests, “her lifelong devotion to the novels of P. G. Wodehouse may have already begun.” It’s hard to say whether there’s a touch of early Wodehouse in this lighthearted letter or whether the future queen is having some fun with the then current Edwardian slang: “Arthur Duff has given me a NEW PONY. It’s 16 years old, but awfully good still. Only 11 days now. HOORAY. WHAT HO! PIP. PIP.” Most of the other references to Wodehouse occur in discussions of the Queen Mother’s reading habits, which were fairly wide-ranging. It was heartening to discover that the she did her bit to spread the word about Wodehouse. She advised the distinguished professor of church Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon history, Owen Chadwick, OM, KBE, FBA, FRSE, to read Gussie Fink- (later Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother) Nottle’s prize-giving speech in Right Ho, Jeeves.
