LAMPOON DESERTS ORDINARY PARODY FOR FAIRYLAND TRIP

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Lampoon, departing from its custom of the last few years, will not issue its April parody of a popular magazine, this year. Instead, the Board will devote its attentions to an issue of poking tun at books and magazines of children's lore.

No particular book or magazine will be attacked, but the entire field will be parodied. The Fairy Tales of the Grimm brothers and those of Hans Christian Anderson form the background, but besides these the Red, Blue, Green and Yellow Fairy books, Mother Goose, Aesop's Fables, Alice in Wonderland, and the children's poems of Robert Louis Stevenson, James Whitcomb Riley Eugene Field and W. C. Gilbert will be burlesqued.
