"Hello again Members: And how are you after the dandy holidays of Christmas and New Year's Day?"
Storyline
The column talks about how to record footprints and make a strongbox, with the text mostly recycled from the column in New Adventure Comics #26. It also mentions it is a good idea for each local club to have a photographer and require members to pay dues.
Story Notes
The page includes a clip-and-mail coupon that could be sent, along with 10 cents, to "enlist" in the Junior Federal Men Club. Those who joined received a badge, certificate and Operator's number. Previous indexer credited Jerry Siegel as writer, but it is unlikely he wrote any of the JFMC columns.
