Speaker 1 (01:50):
Out of trouble?
Speaker 2 (01:50):
All right?
Speaker 8 (01:51):
Yeah, but there's only one thing, you know, these breach
of promise suits you done had in they kind of
hit you by surprise. Now that you was cleaned of
all women, why don't you make sure that there ain't
some other gale around here that you done proposed to
and forgot about it.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
Well, now there's a coinsulace right there.
Speaker 6 (02:09):
I was just checking up on that very thing before
you fellas come in here. I was halfway through my
address book. Now see there here the is ees up
to the elves.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
Oh the hell's huh?
Speaker 9 (02:21):

To her brother, that one you can cross off. Yeah,
Now the next shell I got your Elsie. I know
I didn't propose to her neither. She's the big pat

Speaker 8 (02:49):
Yeah, yeah, she got a muscle, double chins. All right,

Speaker 6 (02:52):
I never knowed which was her chins and which was
her lips. I never knowed where to kiss her.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
We didn't, huh.
Speaker 6 (03:00):
I finally worked out her sister though, What was that Anna,
I'd hold a piece of candy up to her face
and whatever opened up for it, that's what i'd care.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Oh yeah, that was a smart idea, sort of using
the candy, thought of a range find him.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
Yeah, that's well.
Speaker 8 (03:20):
Up to now, Andy, you seem to be pretty much
in declared with the gal.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (03:24):
I can't think of nobody that could cause me no
sueing trouble. Not a single gal. I wait a minute,
there is one that I just thunk of that I
might have preposed her. Yeah, there is one that I oh, hello, Henry,
Hello boy, Hello, I was just out shopping with my
(03:46):
wife that i'd stop in.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
We met that Sylvia Adams. She was shopping for her
true saul. That's the one I members now.
Speaker 6 (03:56):
I preposed to her about two weeks ago, when I
was sitting on a sofa ware when I asked her
to marry me, she just smiled. I never didn't figure
out whether she smiled yes or smiled no.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Well, from what I see to her shopping today.
Speaker 6 (04:10):
I would say that she definitely smiled in the infirmative. Henry,
is you show that it was a truth sold that
she was buying? Well, I seed her by a long
white dress. It had orange blossoms embroidered all over it.
She bought sort of a net veil that went over
her heead. And most important of all, there was a
long train behind her.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Do that long train behind.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Her make her a bride? Bro then it don't make
no engineer.
Speaker 6 (04:40):
Well, fellas they got me again. I can't stand another
breach of promise.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
You well, what is he gonna do?
Speaker 6 (04:46):
Come on, King Frish, We're going over to see my lawyer,
Gabby Gibson.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
Oh dare you Gabby?
Speaker 8 (05:00):
And it feels pretty sure that steals your atoms is
gonna sue him for breaching promos.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
Now, how are you gonna handle the thing?
Speaker 6 (05:06):
Well, first we got to see if he's got a case. Yes,
and even got to see if he's got a case.
I know we'll claim that. And wasn't in his right
man mind when he proposed he was a little testing
the head. Oh but Gabby, I was the same as
I always good. We got a case, But Gabby you
don't get the idea. I don't want to be sued
at all.
Speaker 5 (05:25):
Oh, I see what you mean. I see what you mean.
He wants to be what's noting the legal profession as
sue proud.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Oh yeah, that's the exactly the idea, Gabby.
Speaker 6 (05:32):
Well it becomes suit prooved. There's only one way, only
one way. If you was in Darman, if you was
a soldier, you couldn't sue. Nobody can sue a soldier.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Well wait a minute, yeah, wait a minute.
Speaker 6 (05:40):
You think I is in good enough condition to pass
the physical for the army?
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Oh and that don't be crazy. You got all you
can do to pass the physical.
Speaker 10 (05:48):
For being a civilian. Yes, indeed, I guess you're right.
Speaker 5 (06:00):
That fat on him? Look at that fat.
Speaker 6 (06:01):
Now wait a minute, Gabby, there's plenty of muscle there.
Speaker 5 (06:04):
Quand where in my arm here?
Speaker 6 (06:06):
Feel it? Let me feel him. People's getting two red
ration points, will turning into that stuff?
Speaker 9 (06:13):
Ah?
Speaker 8 (06:13):
Weird a minute, yere, I got another idea. Since and
they can't get into him, why can't he borrow a
soldier's uniform just long enough to see the girl and
convince her that she can't sue him?
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Because he's in the armen that will end it.
Speaker 6 (06:25):
Oh, King Fisher got a great idea, and it just
so happens that Larry Simpson just got a medical discharge
from the Army.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
I can borrow his uniform.
Speaker 6 (06:34):
Yeah, and you certainly got to right take these steps,
because at all the beach of promiseus you has had
you show up in a victim, a victim of the laws,
supplying the.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
Man the sublime demand.
Speaker 6 (06:43):
How you figure that, Well, it's always the women who
supply the trouble, and the man who gets it that's
supplying the man if ire of the head. Just now,

You know, King Fisher would so nice of that fellow
lend me his uniform.
Speaker 2 (08:47):

Well, let me see your end of the legings look
pretty good.
Speaker 8 (08:51):
Their pants seem to fit already, the jagged with the belt,
and yeah, the brains buttons don't look bad, neither only thing?
And uh, why are you wearing that steel?
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Hell?
Speaker 6 (09:00):
Well, this fellow I buy the uniform from, don't give
his cloth hat to his little nephew for a souvenir.
And all they had left was his helmet.

campaign with a gal. But they don't give ribbons for that.

Andy, I don't understand why you went in the army
last week.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
I was always in the army.
Speaker 6 (20:19):
It was just that they put me in civilian clothes
for a while doing secret service work.
Speaker 4 (20:23):

Speaker 6 (20:38):
Oh, never mind, I'll just toss it over here on
the table. Oh me, I forgot to add on my helmet. Sorry,

Oh, what.
Speaker 4 (20:53):

York Andy.
Speaker 14 (20:57):
When most of the fellas just were overseas cats.
Speaker 6 (21:00):
Oh yeah, well they probably ain't been the thick of
it like irons. That's where you really get used to
a helmet.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
Why.
Speaker 6 (21:06):
Up at the battlefront, a helmet is like a second
home to a soldier.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
He washes in it, he does laundry in it. He
even cooks in it, cooks in it. Oh show.
Speaker 6 (21:18):
I can remember lots of nights when I have been
cooking supper and my helmet over the campfire. Suddenly the
bugle pros charge the enemy, and I'd go in a
hand to hand fighting with a head full Irish stew.
Oh yeah, I'd be comba dumplings out of my hair
(21:40):
for weeks.
Speaker 4 (21:41):
Well this is very interesting, and come sit here on
the sofa with me and tell me more.
Speaker 2 (21:47):
Oh said on the sofa. You know that reminds me.
Speaker 6 (21:52):
A buddy of mine was sitting on the sofa with
a gal and they preposed to her and then retreated.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
She was going to sue him for breaching promise.
Speaker 6 (22:00):
What happened, Well, she found out that she couldn't see
him on account of you can't sue a man in uniform.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
How you like my uniform?
Speaker 14 (22:08):
Oh, I've noticed it and I think it's very nice.
Speaker 6 (22:12):
Oh yeah, regulation khaki, brass buttons and soup proof.
Speaker 15 (22:17):
Oh Andy, you don't have to stand sit down here
on the sofa.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (22:22):
Well, that law about not being able to sue a
man in uniform show is funny in it you got
a clear picture of the thing.
Speaker 15 (22:28):
Oh yes, I understand, certainly good.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
How about a kiss, honey, Andy.

Okay, okay, Oh boy, everything's working out. Grave Gabby Show
had an idea there, but Gal's not being able to
sue a man in uniform. Eyes in the clear. Now
having this uniform on it really saved the day. I'd
even prepose to her again, you know.

Speaker 2 (25:58):

Speaker 1 (26:01):
What are you doing there?
Speaker 6 (26:02):
Well, it seems that Sylvia's father is a major at
Camp Upton, and I told him I was stationed there too,
so he insisted on driving me back here.
Speaker 2 (26:12):
And they think guy's in the army.
Speaker 8 (26:14):
Yeah, well, how can they think that, Andy, You ain't
got no papers or nothing.

sometimes their papers is a month late in arriving. And
you know I got them overseas campaign ribbons on.
Speaker 8 (26:28):
Yeah, well I don't worry. That'll feed yourself out, Andy.
But the most important thing is Sylvia Adams convinced that
you are super proof.

Yeah, she knows she can't sue me with this uniform on.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
Oh good, and it good.

Harlow Will saying good night to all of you from
all of us. Say, ladies, would you deny your own
boy medicine if he were ill? Help, if he needed help?
(29:11):
You know, the waist kitchen fats you save and turn
into your butcher are used for military medicines, military supplies.
Those waist fats are urgently needed. And if you're not
saving every drop you possibly can, you may be denying
your own fighting man help. It is in your power
to give. Save every drop of used fat. Take it
(29:34):
to your butcher regularly. He'll give you four cents and
two red points for every pound.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
It's only human to perspire. Everybody does.
Speaker 3 (30:17):
Smart people know that no one is safe from bo.
That's why they use Life Boy in their daily bath.
It gives all over head to toe protection and it's
lasting protection. Remember, Life Boy is the only soap that's
especially made to stop
Speaker 2 (30:57):

in Andy Brown's life recently, and now that the latest
one against him has been dropped, Andy is in his
office telling Amos and the kingfish off his new design
for living.
Speaker 5 (01:37):
No more women, I.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Tell you, fellows it's the truth.
Speaker 6 (01:41):

I ain't going out with no more women, and that's final.
Speaker 7 (01:47):
Well, bro, then they're staying away from women's is gonna
keep you.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
Out of trouble?
Speaker 2 (01:50):
All right?
Speaker 8 (01:51):
Yeah, but there's only one thing, you know, these breach
of promise suits you done had in they kind of
hit you by surprise. Now that you was cleaned of
all women, why don't you make sure that there ain't
some other gale around here that you done proposed to
and forgot about it.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
Well, now there's a coinsulace right there.
Speaker 6 (02:09):
I was just checking up on that very thing before

Speaker 6 (02:52):
I never knowed which was her chins and which was
her lips. I never knowed where to kiss her.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
We didn't, huh.
Speaker 6 (03:00):
I finally worked out her sister though, What was that Anna,
I'd hold a piece of candy up to her face
and whatever opened up for it, that's what i'd care.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Oh yeah, that was a smart idea, sort of using
the candy, thought of a range find him.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
Yeah, that's well.
Speaker 8 (03:20):
Up to now, Andy, you seem to be pretty much
in declared with the gal.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (03:24):
I can't think of nobody that could cause me no
sueing trouble. Not a single gal. I wait a minute,
there is one that I just thunk of that I
might have preposed her. Yeah, there is one that I oh, hello, Henry,
Hello boy, Hello, I was just out shopping with my
(03:46):
wife that i'd stop in.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
We met that Sylvia Adams. She was shopping for her
true saul. That's the one I members now.
Speaker 6 (03:56):
I preposed to her about two weeks ago, when I
was sitting on a sofa ware when I asked her
to marry me, she just smiled. I never didn't figure
out whether she smiled yes or smiled no.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Well, from what I see to her shopping today.
Speaker 6 (04:10):
I would say that she definitely smiled in the infirmative. Henry,
is you show that it was a truth sold that
she was buying? Well, I seed her by a long
white dress. It had orange blossoms embroidered all over it.
She bought sort of a net veil that went over
her heead. And most important of all, there was a
long train behind her.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Do that long train behind.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Her make her a bride? Bro then it don't make
no engineer.
Speaker 6 (04:40):
Well, fellas they got me again. I can't stand another
breach of promise.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
You well, what is he gonna do?
Speaker 6 (04:46):
Come on, King Frish, We're going over to see my lawyer,
Gabby Gibson.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
Oh dare you Gabby?
Speaker 8 (05:00):
And it feels pretty sure that steals your atoms is
gonna sue him for breaching promos.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
Now, how are you gonna handle the thing?
Speaker 6 (05:06):
Well, first we got to see if he's got a case. Yes,
and even got to see if he's got a case.
I know we'll claim that. And wasn't in his right
man mind when he proposed he was a little testing
the head. Oh but Gabby, I was the same as
I always good. We got a case, But Gabby you
don't get the idea. I don't want to be sued
at all.
Speaker 5 (05:25):
Oh, I see what you mean. I see what you mean.
He wants to be what's noting the legal profession as
sue proud.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Oh yeah, that's the exactly the idea, Gabby.
Speaker 6 (05:32):
Well it becomes suit prooved. There's only one way, only
one way. If you was in Darman, if you was
a soldier, you couldn't sue. Nobody can sue a soldier.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Well wait a minute, yeah, wait a minute.
Speaker 6 (05:40):
You think I is in good enough condition to pass
the physical for the army?
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Oh and that don't be crazy. You got all you
can do to pass the physical.
Speaker 10 (05:48):
For being a civilian. Yes, indeed, I guess you're right.
Speaker 5 (06:00):
That fat on him? Look at that fat.
Speaker 6 (06:01):
Now wait a minute, Gabby, there's plenty of muscle there.
Speaker 5 (06:04):
Quand where in my arm here?
Speaker 6 (06:06):
Feel it? Let me feel him. People's getting two red
ration points, will turning into that stuff?
Speaker 9 (06:13):
Ah?
Speaker 8 (06:13):
Weird a minute, yere, I got another idea. Since and
they can't get into him, why can't he borrow a
soldier's uniform just long enough to see the girl and
convince her that she can't sue him?
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Because he's in the armen that will end it.
Speaker 6 (06:25):
Oh, King Fisher got a great idea, and it just
so happens that Larry Simpson just got a medical discharge
from the Army.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
I can borrow his uniform.
Speaker 6 (06:34):
Yeah, and you certainly got to right take these steps,
because at all the beach of promiseus you has had
you show up in a victim, a victim of the laws,
supplying the.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
Man the sublime demand.
Speaker 6 (06:43):
How you figure that, Well, it's always the women who
supply the trouble, and the man who gets it that's
supplying the man if ire of the head. Just now,
(07:09):
let's go back to the lodge hall and hear the
mystic Nights of the Sea quartet singing Running Wild.
Speaker 11 (07:30):

You know, King Fisher would so nice of that fellow
lend me his uniform.
Speaker 2 (08:47):
I would look on me.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
Well, let me see your end of the legings look
pretty good.
Speaker 8 (08:51):
Their pants seem to fit already, the jagged with the belt,
and yeah, the brains buttons don't look bad, neither only thing?
And uh, why are you wearing that steel?
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Hell?
Speaker 6 (09:00):
Well, this fellow I buy the uniform from, don't give
his cloth hat to his little nephew for a souvenir.
And all they had left was his helmet.

never seen one like that on a soldier before.

Or well, I slapped that one on there myself kind
of helped the color scheme.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
But Ander, you can't do that.
Speaker 8 (09:43):
You see, every ribbon on there means that you has
been in action, and pink, pink means gals.
Speaker 6 (09:50):
Well, then I really earned that ribbon. I look at it,
I look at you. You might have been in a
campaign with a gal. But they don't give ribbons for that.
Speaker 7 (10:00):
Now, now wait a minute, that yellow ribbon, there's.

you'd call terrific. But then came the dawn. Sally found
out about Rinso lovely.
Speaker 4 (16:31):
Soapy rich rinsol. Even without a washing machine. Wash day's
much pleasander Rinso soaks my clothes clean.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
Yes, ladies, as little as a ten minute soaking plus
a few light rubs on extra grimy places, and clothes
are ready to rinse. What's more, Renzel gets clothes really clean.
White clothes are not just white, but Rinso white. Washable
colors come Rinso bright safely, even after scores of washings.
(16:59):
No wonder. Sam doesn't mind clothes washing these days.
Speaker 4 (17:02):
Don't mind during the dishes either. Rinzo slicks them up
in far less time, and Rinso's easy on my hands.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
Besides, Ladies, try a Rinso on the dishes tomorrow the
next wash day for a wash that's rinsol white and
rinso bright.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
It it.
Speaker 14 (18:06):
It it it, Hello Hello Sylvia, Oh hello Joan.
Speaker 4 (19:06):
How are you?
Speaker 14 (19:07):
Sylvia? What says I hear about your getting married? Somebody
saw your trousseau shopping. It's true, Joane.
Speaker 15 (19:13):
Remember John Winters. Well he's coming back on furlough in
two weeks and we're gonna get married John Wunters.
Speaker 14 (19:19):
While Sylvia I had an idea, you're gonna marry Andy Brown.
Andy Brown. Oh, Joane, I haven't completely.
Speaker 15 (19:27):
Lost my mind. Or I did go out with him
once or twice. As a matter of fact, he just
called to say he was gonna drop over here, but
I've never given him a serious thought.
Speaker 14 (19:38):
Well that's wonderful about you and Johnny, Sylvia. Oh, thank you, Joane.
Speaker 15 (19:42):
And when Johnny gets back or there's somebody at the door, Jones,
that must be Andy now, but I'll talk with you
over the weekend.
Speaker 14 (19:49):
Okay, Sylvia, goodbye?
Speaker 4 (19:52):
Hemmy, why Andy that outfits?
Speaker 1 (20:00):
Oh?
Speaker 14 (20:00):
Come in?
Speaker 2 (20:01):
Okay? Forward mark one, two, three four?
Speaker 1 (20:06):
Half this myth?
Speaker 2 (20:10):
Well yeah, I am, Oh.
Speaker 4 (20:13):
Andy, I don't understand why you went in the army
last week.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
I was always in the army.
Speaker 6 (20:19):
It was just that they put me in civilian clothes
for a while doing secret service work.
Speaker 4 (20:23):
Oh what kind of secret service were I don't know.
Speaker 6 (20:28):
It was so secret that didn't even tell me. Well
sit down, Oh yeah, yeah, I'll do that. I'll take
off my hat.
Speaker 14 (20:37):
I'll take it.
Speaker 6 (20:38):
Oh, never mind, I'll just toss it over here on
the table. Oh me, I forgot to add on my helmet. Sorry,
I busted that base.
Speaker 15 (20:49):
Oh that's all right.
Speaker 5 (20:51):
Oh, what.
Speaker 4 (20:53):
How is it? That you wearing a helmet around New
York Andy.
Speaker 14 (20:57):
When most of the fellas just were overseas cats.
Speaker 6 (21:00):
Oh yeah, well they probably ain't been the thick of
it like irons. That's where you really get used to
a helmet.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
Why.
Speaker 6 (21:06):
Up at the battlefront, a helmet is like a second
home to a soldier.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
He washes in it, he does laundry in it. He
even cooks in it, cooks in it. Oh show.
Speaker 6 (21:18):
I can remember lots of nights when I have been
cooking supper and my helmet over the campfire. Suddenly the
bugle pros charge the enemy, and I'd go in a
hand to hand fighting with a head full Irish stew.
Oh yeah, I'd be comba dumplings out of my hair
(21:40):
for weeks.
Speaker 4 (21:41):
Well this is very interesting, and come sit here on
the sofa with me and tell me more.
Speaker 2 (21:47):
Oh said on the sofa. You know that reminds me.
Speaker 6 (21:52):
A buddy of mine was sitting on the sofa with
a gal and they preposed to her and then retreated.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
She was going to sue him for breaching promise.
Speaker 6 (22:00):
What happened, Well, she found out that she couldn't see
him on account of you can't sue a man in uniform.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
How you like my uniform?
Speaker 14 (22:08):
Oh, I've noticed it and I think it's very nice.
Speaker 6 (22:12):
Oh yeah, regulation khaki, brass buttons and soup proof.
Speaker 15 (22:17):
Oh Andy, you don't have to stand sit down here
on the sofa.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (22:22):
Well, that law about not being able to sue a
man in uniform show is funny in it you got
a clear picture of the thing.
Speaker 15 (22:28):
Oh yes, I understand, certainly good.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
How about a kiss, honey, Andy.
Speaker 14 (22:35):
We'll say. Oh, I just had a thought, you know,
I'd like you to meet my.
Speaker 4 (22:39):
Father, and now you just wait here minute.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
He's right in the next room.
Speaker 15 (22:42):
I'll go right with you.
Speaker 6 (22:44):
Okay, okay, Oh boy, everything's working out. Grave Gabby Show
had an idea there, but Gal's not being able to
sue a man in uniform. Eyes in the clear. Now
having this uniform on it really saved the day. I'd
even prepose to her again, you know.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
Uh yeah, a Corporal.
Speaker 14 (23:05):
Brown, I'd like to have you meet my father, Major Adam.

you've certainly done a lot of fighting. Oh, yes, sir,
they usually call me and gut a brown. Yes, sir,
I've really been in a lot of battles on the
Western Front, the Western Front. According to those campaign ribbons,

Camp Upton, and I told him I was stationed there too,
so he insisted on driving me back here.

And they think guy's in the army.
Speaker 8 (26:14):

sometimes their papers is a month late in arriving. And
you know I got them overseas campaign ribbons on.
Speaker 8 (26:28):
Yeah, well I don't worry. That'll feed yourself out, Andy.

all of us. Say, ladies, would you deny your own
boy medicine if he were ill? Help, if he needed help?
(29:11):
You know, the waist kitchen fats you save and turn
into your butcher are used for military medicines, military supplies.
Those waist fats are urgently needed. And if you're not
saving every drop you possibly can, you may be denying
your own fighting man help. It is in your power
to give. Save every drop of used fat. Take it
(29:34):
to your butcher regularly. He'll give you four cents and
two red points for every pound.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
It's only human to perspire. Everybody does.

Smart people know that no one is safe from bo.
