The Shooting of Dan McGrew
Robert W. Service’s great poem will take a leading place in the WINTER ANNUAL of Capt. Billy’s Whiz Bang out in October, together with “The Girl in the Blue Velvet Band,” “The Face on the Barroom Floor,” “Lasca” (in full), Langdon Smith’s “Evolution,” and scores of other red-blooded gems. In addition to the Smokehouse Poetry section, there will be stories, jokes, jests, jingles, mail bag, questions and answers and a galaxy of illustrations. The Annual will be apart from the regular October issue and will be on sale as long as the supply lasts. Our first annual, 1920, sold out within two weeks. Only three months to wait.

The Finest Collection of Figure Studies Ever Published
KENYON COX in SCRIBNER’S MAGAZINE, says:
With the Greeks and Florentines it was a delight in the beauty of form, in which the human figure exceeds all other beautiful things. The Venetians added a delight in the exquisite color and texture of the flesh. They first perceived that not only was the human body the noblest in form and line of all existing objects, but in color and softness and exquisiteness of Light and Shade, the flesh of a woman was more lovely than pearls or flowers, so a new art of “NUDE” came into existence. The figure no longer stood for the expression of abstract idea, but was painted for its own BEAUTY as men paint FLOWERS or LANDSCAPES.
