Craft Present the Great Gilder Sleeve, the Craft Cheese Company,
who also bring you Bing Crosby every Thursday Night. Present
each week at this time, Harold Perry, as the Great
Fielders leave, written by Leonard l Levinson. We'll hear from
(00:30):
the Great Yilder Sleeve in just a moment. But first,
do you know what comes to my mind when I
think of fresh bread, steaming, hot baked potatoes, tasty pan
fried breakfast eggs, luscious cakes and cookies. Well, I think
of that delicious modern margarine, Parkue margarine made by Kraft.
Because Park margarine makes all those good tasting foods taste
(00:51):
even better.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Yes, Park's smooth, delicate.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
Flavor makes it grand for table use, makes it a
real flavor shortening for baking, mouth watering.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
Cookies, cake and pastries.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Yes, and Park margarine is a delicious seasoning for hot vegetables,
makes pan fried foods tastier too. That's why I think
of Park when all sorts of good foods come to mind.
And another thing, whether you ser Park margin at the
table or use it for cooking, you can be sure
it's good for your family. It's made from selected American
farm products that are wholesome and nourishing. What's more, Park
(01:23):
is a highly nourishing energy food, and every single pound
contains nine thousand units of important vitamin A. So try
economical parquet marginmen tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
Just ask your dealer.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
For Park p A R k Ay the delicious margarin
made by Craft. And now let's visit our friend, the
great Guilders Wave.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
Judge Hooker, No thanks, Bertie. I'm warm enough, ny, But
a nice fire feels good on a cool night, doesn't it?
Speaker 4 (02:10):
Gillers sleep? How should I know? You've been blocking the
heat in front of this fire all evening. You're not careful,
you'll give yourself a high hot foot?
Speaker 5 (02:19):
Gee, uncle, more, don't you think the fire is good
for Judge Hooker's ideas?
Speaker 4 (02:23):
I don't know what you mean, le Roy.
Speaker 6 (02:24):
Well you said there were just half big y.
Speaker 4 (02:29):
I don't recall, young man. Isn't it time for you
to be in bed?
Speaker 7 (02:32):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (02:32):
But you promised I a stap as long as we
had company.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
Well that's right, only I never thought the company. Excuse me, Judge,
I guess my foot's falling asleep.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
Oh you need h Gilder's leave. I'm going only it's
been so cozy here, and the conversation has been so interesting.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
Conversation sounded more like a monologue to me. Don't they
let you talk down in your court room? Judge?
Speaker 8 (02:53):
Oh man, he's just.
Speaker 4 (02:56):
Who's lonely in blue?
Speaker 9 (02:57):
Why?
Speaker 3 (02:58):
Just because I like the family atmosphere, I'm here in
preference to sitting in that big, cold, empty house of mine?
Does that mean I'm lonely and blue?
Speaker 4 (03:05):
Yes? Otherwise you wouldn't come and stand in front of
our fire and get all friendly and pink. Well, maybe
you're right. You know what you need, Judge Hooker some
good woman. No, No, I don't.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
I've tried a dozen housekeepers, but they all quit.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
Well personally, I don't blame him. Judge, you're as crusty
as a carload of peanut ribble.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
What do you mean crushy? I'll have you know that
I'm still considered one of Summerfield's most eligible bachelor's.
Speaker 4 (03:30):
Yeah, eligible for what social security? Leroy? Aren't you in bed? Yet?
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Another hint? Berdie my cold mad?
Speaker 4 (03:41):
Please now, Judge, don't leave just because Leroy is going
to bed. How about a game of Old maid a rummy?
Speaker 3 (03:46):
Oh thanks, Gildy, you play rumming like an old maid.
Old maid like a rummy.
Speaker 4 (03:52):
Oh a bad loser, eh, judge and be shing buttle up.
Speaker 9 (03:56):
Well, I don't blame the government for clapping down on
the weather report.
Speaker 4 (04:01):

Speaker 3 (04:04):
I guess you're right, well the NFE.

with your nice niece nephew and eating all the nice
meals I.
Speaker 6 (04:22):
Fixed, he gets sold green and looks nice.
Speaker 9 (04:24):
Spring is here again.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
Yeah, you know, deep down, Bertie, I really liked the
little dufferty. And when I spoke about him needing a
good woman, I didn't mean an housekeeper. I had a
good wife.
Speaker 9 (04:33):
It's some nice ladies that he might take too.
Speaker 4 (04:35):
It take two. That'll be big of me. Bertie. You're
really on?
Speaker 10 (04:41):
Are you gonna off?
Speaker 6 (04:42):

was getting told.
Speaker 10 (04:51):
Of monoton Yeah, okay, okay, I'm gonna.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
Well up at last, he Leroy. The only thing more
difficult than getting you to bed at night is waking
you in the morning.
Speaker 6 (05:09):
Good morning, hunh, Sarah.
Speaker 5 (05:10):
Remember what you said last night about finding somebody to
marry Judge Hooker?
Speaker 4 (05:14):
Well, I didn't mean for you to hear that, young man.
Speaker 5 (05:16):
Well, it's lucky I did, because I've got somebody.
Speaker 4 (05:18):
All lined up. What do you mean? Who?
Speaker 5 (05:21):
All my teachers at school, missus Cagle? Boy, The whole
class has been trying to figure out a way to
get rid of her ever since. If they have, Yeah, well,
I'll be glad when I tell them what judge is
gonna marry her?
Speaker 4 (05:36):
Whoa here, here, wait a minute, Leroy. First, what sort
of a lady is this, mister Cagle.
Speaker 5 (05:41):
Well, to give you an idea, the kids elected her
Miss Poisoned Course of nineteen forty two.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
Unanimous. Why she's if she's anything at all like that?
Why nominate her for the title of missus Hooker?
Speaker 6 (05:54):
Is that wrong?
Speaker 4 (05:55):
After all, we're trying to make the judge's life right.
Miss Cagle sounds like a drip of the first water.
Speaker 5 (06:01):
Oh gee, that's right. I was so anxious to get
her off our hands. I didn't realize what a journey
trick it would.
Speaker 4 (06:07):
Be on the judge. Yes, well, we'll have to think
of somebody else, I guess me.
Speaker 6 (06:11):
But how about looking here.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
In the morning paper, morning paper for what for the bride?
Speaker 9 (06:15):
Maybe one of the persons in the personal will turn
out to be the judges dream girl.
Speaker 4 (06:20):
Thanks, Bertie, no harm in looking. Let me see. Oh, yes,
here we are personals. Attractive young lady it blonde wishes
to meet sympathetic gentlemen of means object Hollywood.
Speaker 6 (06:33):
No, I don't think.
Speaker 3 (06:35):
I don't think that's the judges style.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
Read the next one.
Speaker 9 (06:37):
That sounded better.
Speaker 4 (06:38):
Yes, here it is well to do widow interested in
meeting professional man over fifty, have refined tastes and grand piano.
Also private income, own car, and seven delightful children who
will add life to any home.
Speaker 6 (06:52):
Oh for seven kids?
Speaker 4 (06:56):
Yes, wrong number. I'm sorry, Bertie. I'm afraid our little
Justice wouldn't have any peace if we snagged him a
helpmate out of the help wanted.
Speaker 5 (07:05):
Oh keepers looking at the time. I gotta go over
to Piggy Bank's house.
Speaker 4 (07:08):
Yeah, what poor Leroy.
Speaker 5 (07:09):
His aunt Henrietta is knitting sweaters for the army, and
I'm to bring us some wool Marjorie.
Speaker 4 (07:13):
Left for he well, run along by all means. And
so Henrietta Banks is in town, Say Henrietta Banks, what's
the matter nothing. She's perfect for Judge Hooker. I mean
she has a nice social position. Her grandfather was the
first white child born in this county. And she's really
not bad looking.
Speaker 6 (07:31):
She I didn't know you knew Piggy's hand uncle more.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
Yes, I met her about ten years ago. I remembered
I just ripped my trousers before she came over, and
I didn't dare get up all the time she was here.
It really was very embarrassing.
Speaker 6 (07:44):
She sure sounds like the future, miss Judge Hooker.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
Yeah, well, I'm gonna try anyway. Let me have that yarn, Leroy,
I'll deliver it. While I'm there, I can sort of
subtenly get around talking about the judge and matrimony and
things like that.
Speaker 6 (07:55):
Well, i'll get your hat in courtra.
Speaker 9 (07:57):
What about that appointment you had to get examined French sures, mister.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
Gil Oh, Yes, the insurance doctors do here in half
an hour. You tell him I was called away on business, Bertie,
have him come in to day or so. If I'm
going to press the Judge's suit, I better strike while
the iron is hot. Thank you, Leroy. You know I'm
getting quite a kick out of this idea. Won't the
judge be surprised when he finds out all I'm doing
for him? Well, here I go, good loves. Yes, well,
(08:25):
thank you.
Speaker 5 (08:28):
He's a pretty squall guy, isn't he, Bertie?
Speaker 6 (08:30):
Sure?
Speaker 5 (08:31):
Oh no, all that's trouble, just to make two lonely
people happy.
Speaker 6 (08:34):
That's right.
Speaker 5 (08:35):
I'm looking at him walking down the street, a regular
Dan Cupid.
Speaker 6 (08:40):
Yes, he he got to figure for it.

we only met once before, and you seem so shy.
Speaker 4 (09:45):
Then you're shy. Oh, yes, I remember. That was just
a temporary bashmless on my part. I suppose I was
just afraid of making the wrong impression.
Speaker 10 (09:54):
Oh as if you could.
Speaker 4 (09:56):
Have, as if I couldn't have. But tell me, Miss Banks,
or rather Henrietta, that is, if you don't mind.
Speaker 10 (10:04):
Oh no, no, not at all.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
When Leroy told me that you were here, I was
greatly surprised to hear that you were still Miss Banks. Yes, my,
but I'll bet you put up a gallant fight against
all the men who must have wanted to change your name.
Speaker 10 (10:20):
Well, some girls like a certain independent.
Speaker 4 (10:24):
Well I knew that would be the trouble. That attitude
of yours is hardly pair to us a poor man, Henrietta.

Well, no, I'm really in soup. It's not fun. It's
a surprise ready now, yes, Henrietta, but it's a different
one altogether.
Speaker 10 (20:33):
I don't understand.
Speaker 4 (20:35):
Yeah, I didn't think you would. I asked Judge Cooker
to come here this evening. I told the judge all
about you, but he can't make it tonight.
Speaker 10 (20:42):
Oh well that's perfectly all right, John Martin.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
What it is?
Speaker 4 (20:46):
Surely you don't know what to relief? This is to me, Henrietta?
Speaker 10 (20:50):
Why you impetuous boy? Did you be an eye?
Speaker 7 (20:54):
And even if the judge had come we we couldn't
get married without a license.
Speaker 4 (20:58):
If if we if the judge wasn't going to marry us,
he was going to marry you. Uh toh, whim's health.
Speaker 6 (21:07):
I don't know him at all.
Speaker 4 (21:09):
Oh, yes you do. He's your unknown admirer.
Speaker 6 (21:11):
Oh no, that to you.
Speaker 4 (21:14):
Oh no, that's the judge.
Speaker 10 (21:16):
All right, and then see him here and let's see
I see.
Speaker 4 (21:19):
Oh well, I can hardly do that for a little while.
Speaker 10 (21:21):
Yet, Oh, you're just like all other men.
Speaker 8 (21:25):
After leading me on, it turns out to be a joke.
Speaker 10 (21:28):
It's a cruel, heartless joke. After I told all my friends.
Speaker 5 (21:32):
Oh well, you haven't heard the last of this, mister Gildersleeve.
Speaker 7 (21:36):
There are courts and laws to protect innocent girls from
men like you.
Speaker 6 (21:40):
Goodbye.
Speaker 4 (21:43):
Oh why was I ever born? I'm telling you, Judge
Leroy got us straight from the little bank's boy is
aunt has call in some lawyer and Taylor.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
Oh he's a tough man, this tailor. He'll take you
straight to the cleaners.
Speaker 4 (22:04):
That's what I'm afraid of. They've been going over those
letters and poems I sent Henrietta. Oh that's bad. Yes,
if they ever read those poems in court. I'll never
be able to hold up my head again in Summerfield.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
That serves you right for trying to marry me off
yellos Leeve, You're a pretty stupid cupid, but.
Speaker 4 (22:22):
I meant everything for the best. Judge. Oh please, can't
you help me?
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Why? Yes, Killless Sleeve, I'll be glad to help you.
If you publish those poems. Put me down for a copy.
Speaker 4 (22:31):
I'll see here, hooker. That's the wrong attitude after I
played John Alden New York poop hondas.
Speaker 10 (22:38):
Yellless leave.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
I'm going to get out of here before I get
involved in this scandless case.
Speaker 6 (22:42):
Goodbye.
Speaker 3 (22:43):
I'll be seeing you in the funny paper.
Speaker 4 (22:45):
You'll live, You'll goat. There's gratitude for you. Next time
I take pity on him, I hope somebody gives me
a good slip pick in the telephone. Hello if who oh,

and then you'll say to him.

Speaker 1 (26:53):
The plane goodbye? The Great Yeller's Slave will be once

(27:14):
to answer some questions several people have asked me lately,
questions like what's park Margarine made of?
Speaker 2 (27:20):
Is it good for you?
Speaker 4 (27:21):
How?
Speaker 1 (27:22):
Can it taste so deliciously good? Well, I'm glad to
answer those.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
Questions because it will explain why Park.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
Margmin is so different and better than old time marginins.
Why are to downright delicious food that's nourishing and wholesome too.
You see Park as a modern vegetable marginman made by Craft,
and the pure refined American vegetable oils that go in
the parque help make it the highly nutritious energy food
that it is. And to its wholesome goodness, Craft adds
(27:49):
important vitamin A to parka margmen nine thousand units to
every pound. Now about parkae Margin's delicious flavor, It's Craft's
long experience and making good tasting foods that accounts for that. Yes,
if you think all marginins are alike.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
Just taste Park. That rich, delicate Park.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
Flavor is making it a favorite everywhere for table use
and for cooking too. But why not find out about
Park Margin's goodness yourself? Yes, try a pound or two
of economical Park marginin tomorrow. Just ask for Park p
a r kay, the delicious modern margarine made by Craft.
The maker's a famous miracle whip salad dressing.
Speaker 5 (28:48):
Gevigeman turned down.
Speaker 6 (28:50):
What are you going to do about insurance, e.
Speaker 4 (28:52):
Roy, I'm gonna spend that money for some victory insurance.
I'm going to invest in defense bunds. It'll pay off
in ten years. It's like an endowment policy.
Speaker 6 (29:00):
I mean, why your dollars will be fighting for you.
As for Uncle Sap.
Speaker 4 (29:03):
That's right. It's a wonderful way of combining business and pleasure,

the Great Yilder Sleeve in just a moment. But first,
do you know what comes to my mind when I
think of fresh bread, steaming, hot baked potatoes, tasty pan
fried breakfast eggs, luscious cakes and cookies. Well, I think
of that delicious modern margarine, Parkue margarine made by Kraft.
Because Park margarine makes all those good tasting foods taste
(00:51):
even better.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Yes, Park's smooth, delicate.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
Flavor makes it grand for table use, makes it a
real flavor shortening for baking, mouth watering.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
Cookies, cake and pastries.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Yes, and Park margarine is a delicious seasoning for hot vegetables,
makes pan fried foods tastier too. That's why I think
of Park when all sorts of good foods come to mind.
And another thing, whether you ser Park margin at the
table or use it for cooking, you can be sure
it's good for your family. It's made from selected American
farm products that are wholesome and nourishing. What's more, Park
(01:23):
is a highly nourishing energy food, and every single pound

great Guilders Wave.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
Judge Hooker, No thanks, Bertie. I'm warm enough, ny, But
a nice fire feels good on a cool night, doesn't it?
Speaker 4 (02:10):
Gillers sleep? How should I know? You've been blocking the
heat in front of this fire all evening. You're not careful,
you'll give yourself a high hot foot?
Speaker 5 (02:19):
Gee, uncle, more, don't you think the fire is good
for Judge Hooker's ideas?
Speaker 4 (02:23):
I don't know what you mean, le Roy.
Speaker 6 (02:24):

Speaker 6 (02:32):
But you promised I a stap as long as we

Speaker 4 (02:34):
Well that's right, only I never thought the company. Excuse me, Judge,
I guess my foot's falling asleep.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
Oh you need h Gilder's leave. I'm going only it's
been so cozy here, and the conversation has been so interesting.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
Conversation sounded more like a monologue to me. Don't they
let you talk down in your court room? Judge?
Speaker 8 (02:53):
Oh man, he's just.
Speaker 4 (02:56):
Who's lonely in blue?
Speaker 9 (02:57):
Why?
Speaker 3 (02:58):
Just because I like the family atmosphere, I'm here in
preference to sitting in that big, cold, empty house of mine?
Does that mean I'm lonely and blue?
Speaker 4 (03:05):
Yes? Otherwise you wouldn't come and stand in front of
our fire and get all friendly and pink. Well, maybe
you're right. You know what you need, Judge Hooker some
good woman. No, No, I don't.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
I've tried a dozen housekeepers, but they all quit.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
Well personally, I don't blame him. Judge, you're as crusty
as a carload of peanut ribble.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
What do you mean crushy? I'll have you know that
I'm still considered one of Summerfield's most eligible bachelor's.
Speaker 4 (03:30):
Yeah, eligible for what social security? Leroy? Aren't you in bed? Yet?
Speaker 3 (03:39):
Another hint? Berdie my cold mad?
Speaker 4 (03:41):
Please now, Judge, don't leave just because Leroy is going
to bed. How about a game of Old maid a rummy?
Speaker 3 (03:46):
Oh thanks, Gildy, you play rumming like an old maid.
Old maid like a rummy.
Speaker 4 (03:52):
Oh a bad loser, eh, judge and be shing buttle up.

Well, I don't blame the government for clapping down on
the weather report.
Speaker 4 (04:01):

Speaker 3 (04:04):
I guess you're right, well the NFE.
Speaker 4 (04:06):

with your nice niece nephew and eating all the nice
meals I.
Speaker 6 (04:22):
Fixed, he gets sold green and looks nice.
Speaker 9 (04:24):
Spring is here again.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
Yeah, you know, deep down, Bertie, I really liked the
little dufferty. And when I spoke about him needing a
good woman, I didn't mean an housekeeper. I had a
good wife.
Speaker 9 (04:33):
It's some nice ladies that he might take too.
Speaker 4 (04:35):
It take two. That'll be big of me. Bertie. You're
really on?
Speaker 10 (04:41):
Are you gonna off?
Speaker 6 (04:42):

Speaker 4 (04:48):
I'm not gonna tell you again that you well, I
was getting told.
Speaker 10 (04:51):
Of monoton Yeah, okay, okay, I'm gonna.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
Well up at last, he Leroy. The only thing more
difficult than getting you to bed at night is waking
you in the morning.
Speaker 6 (05:09):
Good morning, hunh, Sarah.
Speaker 5 (05:10):
Remember what you said last night about finding somebody to
marry Judge Hooker?
Speaker 4 (05:14):
Well, I didn't mean for you to hear that, young man.
Speaker 5 (05:16):
Well, it's lucky I did, because I've got somebody.
Speaker 4 (05:18):
All lined up. What do you mean? Who?
Speaker 5 (05:21):
All my teachers at school, missus Cagle? Boy, The whole
class has been trying to figure out a way to
get rid of her ever since. If they have, Yeah, well,
I'll be glad when I tell them what judge is
gonna marry her?
Speaker 4 (05:36):
Whoa here, here, wait a minute, Leroy. First, what sort
of a lady is this, mister Cagle.
Speaker 5 (05:41):
Well, to give you an idea, the kids elected her
Miss Poisoned Course of nineteen forty two.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
Unanimous. Why she's if she's anything at all like that?
Why nominate her for the title of missus Hooker?
Speaker 6 (05:54):
Is that wrong?
Speaker 4 (05:55):
After all, we're trying to make the judge's life right.
Miss Cagle sounds like a drip of the first water.
Speaker 5 (06:01):
Oh gee, that's right. I was so anxious to get
her off our hands. I didn't realize what a journey
trick it would.
Speaker 4 (06:07):
Be on the judge. Yes, well, we'll have to think
of somebody else, I guess me.
Speaker 6 (06:11):
But how about looking here.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
In the morning paper, morning paper for what for the bride?
Speaker 9 (06:15):
Maybe one of the persons in the personal will turn
out to be the judges dream girl.
Speaker 4 (06:20):
Thanks, Bertie, no harm in looking. Let me see. Oh, yes,
here we are personals. Attractive young lady it blonde wishes
to meet sympathetic gentlemen of means object Hollywood.
Speaker 6 (06:33):
No, I don't think.
Speaker 3 (06:35):
I don't think that's the judges style.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
Read the next one.
Speaker 9 (06:37):
That sounded better.
Speaker 4 (06:38):
Yes, here it is well to do widow interested in
meeting professional man over fifty, have refined tastes and grand piano.
Also private income, own car, and seven delightful children who
will add life to any home.
Speaker 6 (06:52):
Oh for seven kids?
Speaker 4 (06:56):
Yes, wrong number. I'm sorry, Bertie. I'm afraid our little
Justice wouldn't have any peace if we snagged him a
helpmate out of the help wanted.
Speaker 5 (07:05):
Oh keepers looking at the time. I gotta go over
to Piggy Bank's house.
Speaker 4 (07:08):
Yeah, what poor Leroy.
Speaker 5 (07:09):
His aunt Henrietta is knitting sweaters for the army, and
I'm to bring us some wool Marjorie.
Speaker 4 (07:13):
Left for he well, run along by all means. And
so Henrietta Banks is in town, Say Henrietta Banks, what's
the matter nothing. She's perfect for Judge Hooker. I mean
she has a nice social position. Her grandfather was the
first white child born in this county. And she's really
not bad looking.
Speaker 6 (07:31):
She I didn't know you knew Piggy's hand uncle more.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
Yes, I met her about ten years ago. I remembered
I just ripped my trousers before she came over, and
I didn't dare get up all the time she was here.
It really was very embarrassing.
Speaker 6 (07:44):
She sure sounds like the future, miss Judge Hooker.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
Yeah, well, I'm gonna try anyway. Let me have that yarn, Leroy,
I'll deliver it. While I'm there, I can sort of
subtenly get around talking about the judge and matrimony and
things like that.
Speaker 6 (07:55):
Well, i'll get your hat in courtra.
Speaker 9 (07:57):
What about that appointment you had to get examined French sures, mister.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
Gil Oh, Yes, the insurance doctors do here in half
an hour. You tell him I was called away on business, Bertie,
have him come in to day or so. If I'm
going to press the Judge's suit, I better strike while
the iron is hot. Thank you, Leroy. You know I'm
getting quite a kick out of this idea. Won't the
judge be surprised when he finds out all I'm doing
for him? Well, here I go, good loves. Yes, well,
(08:25):
thank you.
Speaker 5 (08:28):
He's a pretty squall guy, isn't he, Bertie?
Speaker 6 (08:30):
Sure?
Speaker 5 (08:31):
Oh no, all that's trouble, just to make two lonely
people happy.
Speaker 6 (08:34):
That's right.
Speaker 5 (08:35):
I'm looking at him walking down the street, a regular
Dan Cupid.
Speaker 6 (08:40):
Yes, he he got to figure for it.
Speaker 10 (08:54):
Yeah, yet I'm coming.
Speaker 4 (08:58):
Oh yeah, well, well, little Henry other Banks. Why you
haven't changed the day since I saw you ten years ago?

this time?
Speaker 10 (09:20):
Well, don't you come in, mister Gilder.
Speaker 4 (09:23):
I don't mind if I do. My nephew, Leroy Forrest
was bringing over this yarn for you, and you happen
to mention your name, and I said, well, never mind.
You'd be surprised when I said, well I.
Speaker 10 (09:36):
Have a chair, Well don't you'll take you.
Speaker 7 (09:38):
I can't imagine how you could remember me, after all,
we only met once before, and you seem so shy.
Speaker 4 (09:45):
Then you're shy. Oh, yes, I remember. That was just
a temporary bashmless on my part. I suppose I was
just afraid of making the wrong impression.
Speaker 10 (09:54):
Oh as if you could.
Speaker 4 (09:56):
Have, as if I couldn't have. But tell me, Miss Banks,
or rather Henrietta, that is, if you don't mind.
Speaker 10 (10:04):
Oh no, no, not at all.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
When Leroy told me that you were here, I was
greatly surprised to hear that you were still Miss Banks. Yes, my,
but I'll bet you put up a gallant fight against
all the men who must have wanted to change your name.
Speaker 10 (10:20):
Well, some girls like a certain independent.
Speaker 4 (10:24):
Well I knew that would be the trouble. That attitude
of yours is hardly pair to us a poor man, Henrietta.
Speaker 10 (10:30):
Oh do you think so?

here so early. Do you think I'm acting like a
giddy young school girl.
Speaker 8 (18:50):
Yes, rock Morton, you say the most flattering, precious thing,
almost as nice as your poem my poems.
Speaker 4 (19:01):
But I never wrote to any poems.
Speaker 7 (19:02):
Oh, comb gun, Now, don't deny them, you shy, modest boy.

to his surprises and everything. How soon can you get here?
Maybe I can install things.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
Don't come on me at all?
Speaker 4 (20:09):
What am I going to do about Henrietta, miss Banks

one altogether.
Speaker 10 (20:33):
I don't understand.
Speaker 4 (20:35):
Yeah, I didn't think you would. I asked Judge Cooker
to come here this evening. I told the judge all
about you, but he can't make it tonight.
Speaker 10 (20:42):
Oh well that's perfectly all right, John Martin.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
What it is?
Speaker 4 (20:46):
Surely you don't know what to relief? This is to me, Henrietta?
Speaker 10 (20:50):
Why you impetuous boy? Did you be an eye?
Speaker 7 (20:54):
And even if the judge had come we we couldn't
get married without a license.
Speaker 4 (20:58):
If if we if the judge wasn't going to marry us,
he was going to marry you. Uh toh, whim's health.
Speaker 6 (21:07):
I don't know him at all.
Speaker 4 (21:09):
Oh, yes you do. He's your unknown admirer.
Speaker 6 (21:11):
Oh no, that to you.
Speaker 4 (21:14):
Oh no, that's the judge.
Speaker 10 (21:16):
All right, and then see him here and let's see
I see.
Speaker 4 (21:19):
Oh well, I can hardly do that for a little while.
Speaker 10 (21:21):
Yet, Oh, you're just like all other men.
Speaker 8 (21:25):
After leading me on, it turns out to be a joke.
Speaker 10 (21:28):
It's a cruel, heartless joke. After I told all my friends.
Speaker 5 (21:32):
Oh well, you haven't heard the last of this, mister Gildersleeve.
Speaker 7 (21:36):
There are courts and laws to protect innocent girls from
men like you.

Leroy got us straight from the little bank's boy is
aunt has call in some lawyer and Taylor.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
Oh he's a tough man, this tailor. He'll take you
straight to the cleaners.
Speaker 4 (22:04):
That's what I'm afraid of. They've been going over those
letters and poems I sent Henrietta. Oh that's bad. Yes,
if they ever read those poems in court. I'll never
be able to hold up my head again in Summerfield.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
That serves you right for trying to marry me off
yellos Leeve, You're a pretty stupid cupid, but.
Speaker 4 (22:22):
I meant everything for the best. Judge. Oh please, can't
you help me?
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Why? Yes, Killless Sleeve, I'll be glad to help you.
If you publish those poems. Put me down for a copy.
Speaker 4 (22:31):
I'll see here, hooker. That's the wrong attitude after I
played John Alden New York poop hondas.
Speaker 10 (22:38):
Yellless leave.
Speaker 3 (22:39):
I'm going to get out of here before I get
involved in this scandless case.
Speaker 6 (22:42):
Goodbye.

Margmin is so different and better than old time marginins.
Why are to downright delicious food that's nourishing and wholesome too.
You see Park as a modern vegetable marginman made by Craft,
and the pure refined American vegetable oils that go in
the parque help make it the highly nutritious energy food
that it is. And to its wholesome goodness, Craft adds
(27:49):
important vitamin A to parka margmen nine thousand units to
every pound. Now about parkae Margin's delicious flavor, It's Craft's
long experience and making good tasting foods that accounts for that. Yes,
if you think all marginins are alike.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
Just taste Park. That rich, delicate Park.
Speaker 1 (28:07):
Flavor is making it a favorite everywhere for table use
and for cooking too. But why not find out about
Park Margin's goodness yourself? Yes, try a pound or two
of economical Park marginin tomorrow. Just ask for Park p
a r kay, the delicious modern margarine made by Craft.
The maker's a famous miracle whip salad dressing.
