Here's simple stunt
that keeps 'em B U SYand
ENTERTAINED
for a whole evening
All you need is Anderson's
new book of tricks. Give each
Scout one of these tricks to
master. Then have boys
put on own magic show.
Everyone takes part, everyone has
a chance to amaze the other fellows.
Book has 25 tricks, easy to do, but
unless you know the secret you're
completely mystified and baffled.
Name of this book is how to be
a junior magician.
Nothing extra to buy. No harmful
chemicals involved. Nothing is
complicated. Yet the tricks startle
and amaze. It's exciting. It's fun.
It keeps your whole troop absorbed
and fascinated (and above all busy)
for an entire evening.
