They also appear in one of CB's last 10-pagers, in WDC 308 (May 1966).
That's the one where Donald opens up a beauty parlor, AM&J drag Daisy
into the parlor (Yes, drags. Daisy is very reluctant, cause she is kinda
jealous. See, Donald's parlor is a smash hit, and he is now who is
surrounded by beautiful *and* thankful girls all day long) and then
decide to help Donald in his work... Chaos follows, of course. I like
this one a lot.
