Volume 18, Issue #11: July 1927 Page Count: 24 NOTES: There's a terrifically funny full-page Listerine ad that shows a couple in evening clothes with the woman pointing accusingly at her husband. The caption is "You've Ruined the Evening." and below the picture is the caption "Now dandruff is avoidable" - you really can't make this stuff up...

What Other Needleworkers Have Found Out
Volume 19, Issue #2: October 1927 Page Count: 40 NOTES: They changed their gorgeous and original covers without fanfare to look more like everybody else. They had already started changing their interior copy to mimic what "Modern Priscilla" was doing - fewer patterns and more chasing fashion trends in home decor and kitchenware. I'm glad readership raised enough of a clamor to bring back the "Needlecrafter's Own Page" where the readership could send in original designs to be published. This has proved to be a treasure trove;
