"King" was published in 1924 as a popular entertainment magazine. At this time many factory workers flowed into the city and became readers, so it broke through the circulation level of 1 million copies for the first time in Japan. The purpose of this study is to clarify the condition of working class family entertainment through an analysis of "King" from its first issue until the early stages of Showa. The results are as follows. 1) There were both series of reports and other single reports that related to the home. However, after 1931, the series finished, and other reports about home decreased gradually. 2) Articles about "entertainment" were second most common in the "Katei sekusyon (Home section)" series. 3) There were lots of "funny stories" and "knowledge of miscellaneous matters" in the "entertainment" articles. 4) Almost all reports were short, and they did not have any context either. Therefore, readers with poor reading ability were able to enjoy them too. 5) "King" was read with all family members as one of the pleasures of a happy home. 6) "Play", such as parlor games, "home dance" and "home talent shows" also formed part of family entertainment.
