When Daniel Boone Jr. struggles to hit an empty bird's nest with a rifle, Whitey Whiskers steps in to teach the young man a thing or two—regaling him with tall tales of his supposedly legendary shooting prowess and increasingly outlandish exhibition stunts.

Tops the Cops
1 pp · humor; western-frontier

Chief Slaphappy is out for a stroll when he runs into an officer who can't resist making jokes about the animals accompanying him—mistaking them for the Chief's brothers and needling him about their tight reins.
