Transcriber's Note:
The alternative spelling for Tik-tok as "Tiktok" used in the advertisements at the end of the book; and the spelling of "UNK" in the first chapter heading illustration have been retained as they appear in the original publication.
Changes have been made as follows:

Page 145 "advise" to "[advice]" in "Shaggy Man's advice"
Page 245 "solemly" to "[solemnly]" in "said the Scarecrow solemnly"
Page 260 Closing quotation mark added to "let's go [back."]
Page 279 Fullstop changed to comma in "Can't you talk from this [side,"]
Page 294 "Hoppers" to "Horners" in "and again the [Horners] laughed"
Page 309 Closing quotation mark added to "... I could swim, or [not,"]
