UP WITH MOLESWORTH!
| DOWN WITH SKOOL! by Geoffrey Willans and Ronald Searle; Max Parrish, English : price 8/6. HIS is not reely the preemyair of the Molesworth diaries for they have apeered in punch, but i suspeckt ‘it will make little difference to your enjoymint of them if you have red them (or knot) unless you happen two be uterly wet and a sissy like fotherinton-tomas or on the side of MASTERS (hem-hem). Molesworth One hav done a verry complete job weather on snekes, cads, criket, fooball, parents, MASTERS, aple pie beds, etc., knot to mentshun the chizzes you knead to kno if you are going to be at st custard’s (which is the skool he is at) or are old enought to send your boy their chiz. Persinally i likked the book and objeckted least of all two the drorings by ronald searle which it is full
of. "Forward the young elizabethans," as Molesworth say, "this is what orange juice hav done for the world."
