Medical Misssionary in the Making (1945)

Tom Hardy, P.K. (Told in Pictures): A Medical Missionary in the Making, by Kenneth L. Wilson (pamphlet, 1945, $1)

Interesting pamphlet, with pictures and captions, telling the story of how a mischievous preacher's kid gives up his ambition for money to become a medical missionary. The pamphlet's cover has separated from the rest of the pamphlet, but it is still interesting to read as an example of the ways boys in 1945 were introduced to the idea of becoming missionaries. Of course, maybe I just liked the title. As a former PK myself, I had to check this out. Look for it in the religion section, avail. 1/25.
