BLESS THE BEASTS . . . and the Children

"Here is Natalie. Color her hair brown, and her face and hands pink. The school dress is green and white, and she wears green half hose with brown slippers. Cut her out and mount her on light weight cardboard. You'll hardly recognize her tomorrow." Natalie is from the Betty Cut-Out series, October 15, 1923."She's a bird!" shouted Billy Cut-Out, coming into the house to see Betty fashioning a paper costume for Natalie, who sat watching.

"I hope it's a bird." retorted Betty, "This is supposed to be an owl!" "It has wise old eyes and everything." admired Billy. "With a few flying lessons, Natalie, you could live in a tree the rest of your life." - October 19, 1923.

BLESS THE BEAST . . . The Czar of Russia

From the "Betty Cut-Out" series, November 08, 1923. - Billy Cut-Out was the explainer at the Cut-out Community Poultry show. "Now speaking of fancy birds," he announced to the group of school children he was taking around, "the Czar of Russia has won as many medals as the monarch for whom he was named. At present he is a little lame, for he was in an altercation (that means a fight) with the turkey gobbler at the end of the row. He parts his gorgeous head feathers in the middle, and he is able to crow exactly on the hour by the watch in his waistcoat pocket." * * * Coloring the czar is a test of your ability as an artist. Make his feet and beak yellow and his wattles red, leaving the shaggy comb white. His breast is bluish gray blending into black and green on the back and tail. His waistcoat is orange, his tie purple. Look for trouble tomorrow in the Cut-out show!
