Speaker 1 (00:02):
And did you hear that? Come on, did I hear what?
Speaker 2 (00:05):
That whistle?
Speaker 3 (00:07):
That's the Rinso white whistle, and Russo means us.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Rinso gets closed, Rinso white, and Rinso presents the amoson
Andy show. You know, I always maintain if you begin right,
(00:33):
you'll end right. Take wash day, for instance, if you'll
begin it right by whistling while you wash, you'll end
it right with a wash that's snowy Rinso white. You see,
rinsos soapy rich SuDS get out more dirt. So you
just pop your clothes into those swell SuDS and let
them soap for as little as ten minutes, then a
few light rubs on the stubborn places and rinse. The
(00:54):
result a wash that's really clean, washable, colors, gay and
rin So bright safely after dozens of washings, and what
a white washed Renso turns out sheets and shirts and
table linens dazzling Rinso white. So, ladies, make next wash
day a Renso washed day, and whistle while you wash,
and now our stars Amos and Andy well. After waiting
(01:27):
two years for the second payment on the Kingfish's personal
desk at the Lodge Hall, the finance company gave up
hope and took back the desk. That's why we now
find the kingfish in a second hand furniture store about
to buy a desk he can afford. At the moment,
he's being convinced by the salesman that a rickety old
desk he's looking at is a genuine antique. Now, look,
you a muss muller. I ain't complain because the desk
(01:49):
is all bruised up and ready to fall apart. But
as you've got none without them little holes in it.
Speaker 4 (01:54):
Ooh, those little holes, well, those are wormholes. That proves
a genuine antique.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
Is an when antique out they got wormhole.
Speaker 4 (02:02):
Actually, of course there were limitation antiques with man made wormholes,
but those are less expensive.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Less expensive, you mean the men's work cheaper than the worm.
Speaker 4 (02:14):
Okay, what I meant to say was the wormhole stamped.
This is being an authentic antique. As a matter of fact,
this desk actually.
Speaker 5 (02:20):
Belonged to h to George Washington, George Wildon.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Huh, yeah, this must be the one that throwed across
the Potomac.
Speaker 6 (02:29):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
You want six dollars for the thing? Huh?
Speaker 4 (02:31):
Stevens, how can you quibble about six dollars. Remember this
is the desk that the father of our country actually
wrote letters on.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
From the looks of the thing, I guess he rid
him with his little hatchet too. Didn't they tell you
what was muller? I'll take it.
Speaker 7 (02:44):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
I'll give you four dollars now, and you send a
desk over to my oposite the large hall, and I'll
raised the other two dollars before six o'clock.
Speaker 5 (02:50):
All right, Stevens, it's a deal, Amos.
Speaker 8 (03:07):
I can't tell you how sweet it was of you
to come over and bring us this anniversary press.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Oh that's alrighty, south Fire. You and the Kingfish's two
of our closest friends.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Uh, tell me what did the Kingfish give you for
your anniversary?
Speaker 8 (03:20):
I wish you hadn't asked me that, Amos. George walked
out of the house this morning, and he not only
didn't give me a remembrance, he didn't even.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Mention our anniversary.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Terrible. Well, now, look, south Fire, maybe he did that
on purpose, you know, so he could kind of surprise
you to night with the present.
Speaker 8 (03:38):
No, Amos, he just forgot about it. It's because it
don't mean nothing. Took no more Amas, the love thok
went out of fire.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
I mean it, ch or don't say that, south Fire.
The Kingfish still love you, I know he does, well,
not like.
Speaker 8 (03:52):
He used to, Amos. I just took out some old
love letters and he wrote me twenty years ago, just
before our marriage. He'd read the it's short, but it
technique is beautiful.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
It come at some flowers to the most wonderful woman
who ever drew the breath of life. I love you
with all my heart, George. Yeah, south Fire, that's really beautiful, alright.
Speaker 8 (04:15):
Yeah saying it. I was looking over these other poor
letters too. They're all just the same, sweet and affectionate. Oh, Amos,
Why can't George be sweet like that again?
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (04:26):
Well, what we gotta do is kind of remind him.
Uh say, wait a minute.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
I got a idea.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
I'll tell you what I'll do, south Fire. I'll take
these five letters and I'll slip 'em in the Kingfish's
desk at the office, and when he find 'em, it's
gonna remind him of the way he used to feel
about you. See, south Fire, I know this is gonna work. Well,
(04:54):
look at that, and they must have delivered my new
deaths while we was out to lunch.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
Uh that's a new death ma.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (05:00):
Well, if that was a new desk when you bought it,
we must have took longer to eat lunch than we thunk.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
Look at all them holes. Look at them holes in there?
What is them? Or them as worm holes?
Speaker 2 (05:13):
And yeah, that proves the thing was owned by George Washington. Yeah,
there used to be.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Worms in that desk. Man.

to the most wonderful woman whoever drew the brother of life,
I love you with all my heart, signed George. They
end it just letter sign.
Speaker 9 (05:43):
George, signed George. Uh, well what about it? George is
the common name? Even you has got it?
Speaker 2 (05:50):
They ended. Don't you understand this desk belonged to George Washington?
And if these letters as signed George, then these letters
must have been written by the father of our country.

Speaker 2 (12:44):
Wait on, all that kingfish and he makes me mad.
Somebody ought to give him a good talking til you
know it?
Speaker 1 (12:50):
What's the matter?
Speaker 2 (12:50):
Well, today is Sapphires and his twentieth wedding anniversary and
he done clean forgot about it. Sapphires all broke up,
she crying and everything else.
Speaker 9 (13:00):
Well, believe me, Amos, the Kingfish got a good excuse
for having a slipper's mind today.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Oh no, he ain't neither. I tell you what me
and staff Fire done figured out a way to kind
of jog his memory and remind him of the way
he used to feel about her. And we've done it,
you see, but he didn't pay no attention to it. Well,
I'll tell you what you see. I put five old
love letters that he written to her twenty years ago
in that old desk that he bought for the office.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Yeah. Well, the big news that I'm gonna was, Amos.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
Did I hear you say something about putting five letters
in the King Figure's desk. That's right, and yeah, but
it didn't do no good.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Tell me?
Speaker 2 (13:40):
And what was the big news that you was gonna
tell me?
Speaker 9 (13:43):
It just got smaller? Oh me, why don't nothing ever
work out?
Speaker 1 (13:52):
Right?
Speaker 2 (13:52):
It seemed like Mike Castle's always come crumbling down, Amos
with your mind leaving me alone.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
I got some heavy figure to do a sure?
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Andy?
Speaker 3 (14:01):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (14:01):
What is you gotta figure out how I was gonna
get twelve dollars back?
Speaker 3 (14:15):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (14:15):
But Professor Pepperdine, Uh, I can't understand it.
Speaker 11 (14:18):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Is you show these letters wasn't written by George Washington.
Speaker 6 (14:22):
Not only that, but the original contents of these letters
weren't written more than twenty years ago. M No, my
advice to you, Stevens is not to even attempt to
sell them as George Washington letters, or you end up
in jail.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
Uh. Well, I she would like to get my hands
on the big bomb to writ these letters in the
first place. Well, thanks anyway, professor, so long, goodbye. Well,
there's only one thing to do. I gotta get a
hold of Andy and sell him my hair for the
partnership for another twelve dollars. Andy and the Kingfish seem
(15:06):
to have similar thoughts. Involving a sum of twelve dollars,
we'll learn who comes out ahead in just a moment. Meantime, Ladies,
how many personalities do you have? Are you always gay
and optimistic? Or do you find yourself planning a meal?
Speaker 1 (15:18):
This way?
Speaker 8 (15:19):
We'll have fruit cup and chicken pie and candied sweet
potatoes and Berkeley.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
And then suddenly your other self speaks up, and.
Speaker 8 (15:30):
That means casseroles to wash, and saucepans and the big
baking dish.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
That it's a grim prospect, isn't it. But ladies, you
can squelch that melancholy otherr self. Put Sophie Richer in
soo SuDS to work on those dishes. Those thick, busy
SuDS get rid of every bit of sticky food and
grease in a jiffy, crusted food particles scoot right off
the scene, and before you know it, you'll have a
pile of sparkling clean dishes. Everything from casseroles and baking
(15:56):
dishes right down to cups and saucers clean and bright
as a whistle. And when you use rinso for all
your soap and water jobs, your house will shine from
cellar to Attic, say, Rinso's easy on your hands too.
So tomorrow, first thing, get Rinso. And now back to
Amos and Andy. Well, now that Professor Pepperdine has convinced
(16:27):
the Kingfish that the letters he had were not written
by George Washington, and now that Andy knows they actually
are the Kingfish's old love letters, both partners are looking
for each other in the hope of disposing of his
interest in the partnership without tipping off the other. As
we join them now, they're getting down the business in
the Kingfish's office, and the lad to drop him because uh,
(16:48):
just sit in your standing, mousseau, and the Brown is
the best friend I've gotten A certainly loves him.
Speaker 9 (16:53):
Well, I just come over here to tell you that
I is crazy about you too.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
Now look, and I'll I wanna tell you about my
love for us. And I appreciate it if you wouldn't
interrupt me. All right, Sorry, sorry, anyway, I keep saying
to myself. And the Brown is always doing things for him,
lends them money when it wants it, comforts me in
my hour of needs?
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Is that me assure? As you? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (17:16):
And then I find I asked myself this question I said,
George Stevens, when is you gonna do something for Andy?
When is you gonna pay back that great friendship of
this noble, generous, wonderful man.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
Is that still me? That still be yours?
Speaker 2 (17:32):
And the answer come back to Manda here. I got
these George Washington letters.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Why don't I give him the ander?
Speaker 2 (17:39):
I say to myself, Yeah, let him make a ten
thousand dollars cools ander, Just so I don't rembarrass you
too much by doing such a great favor for you,
I let you pay him measly twelve dollars for my
half interest.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
Man, tell me this King Fisher. Is you all through
with the love stuff? Now?
Speaker 6 (17:54):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (17:54):
Yeah, I think I uncovered everything there.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
Yeah, because I come over to tell you about how
crazy I is about you me. Yeah, tell you the truth.
Speaker 9 (18:01):
I was willing to sell you back my half of
the letters for twelve dollars and let you keep the
ten thousand.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Uh sorry, And I love it too much, not as
much as I does you, much more, much more, brother,
And the love I got for you is greater than
all the famous loves in history Romeo and Juliet, Anthony
and Cleopetra Barnum and Billy and all them great people.
I tell you I got them all be then, yeah, Well,

Speaker 2 (26:22):
Mm, where's my hat?
Speaker 5 (26:26):
George?
Speaker 8 (26:27):
Where are you going?
Speaker 1 (26:28):
I go in to night school with lightning.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
Amoson Andy will be back in just a moment. You
can't blame us for puffing out our chest a little
over the fact that the makers of thirty three leading
washing machines recommend Renso for top results. Take a tip
from the experts, and next wash day, team rensow with
your washer as little as a fine minute run per load.
We'll get you a wash that's rinso bright and prinso white. Yes,
you'll whistle while you.
Speaker 8 (27:05):
Wash like this, wins white, Happy little wash Day song,
Rinse white.
Speaker 3 (27:14):
Pretty, sing it all day long.
Speaker 1 (27:16):
You're clothes ass so white and the paleso bright.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
You sing as you work along, Winso White, Happy little
wash Day song.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
And now here are Amerson Andy Kingfish? How did you
come out with your memory? Because at night school not
so good?
Speaker 2 (27:33):
The sorry I went? Why when I left there I
forgot mover coding. Be sure to be with us again
next Friday evening at the same time when the makers
of Rinso will again present the Emerson Andy Show. This
program is broadcast to our armed forces everywhere. Before we
say good night, is there a lady in the audience
(27:55):
who could use a couple of extra red ration points?
And you don't have to answer that question, but it's
easy enough to get those extra points. Ladies, just save
all your used kitchen fats, and whenever you get a pound,
rush it right down to your butcher. He'll pay you
four cents plus two red ration points for every pound
you turn in. This is hollow Wilcox saying good night
to all of you, from all of us. It's only
(28:24):
human to perspire. Everybody does. Smart people know that no
one is safe from bo. That's why they use Life
Boy in their daily bath.
Speaker 5 (28:32):
It gives all over head to toe.
Speaker 2 (28:34):
Protection and it's lasting protection. Remember, Life Boy is the
only soap that's especially made to stop.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
This is the lash of Broadcasting Company
Speaker 3 (29:00):
MM.
And did you hear that? Come on, did I hear what?
Speaker 2 (00:05):
That whistle?
Speaker 3 (00:07):
That's the Rinso white whistle, and Russo means us.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Rinso gets closed, Rinso white, and Rinso presents the amoson
Andy show. You know, I always maintain if you begin right,
(00:33):
you'll end right. Take wash day, for instance, if you'll
begin it right by whistling while you wash, you'll end
it right with a wash that's snowy Rinso white. You see,
rinsos soapy rich SuDS get out more dirt. So you
just pop your clothes into those swell SuDS and let
them soap for as little as ten minutes, then a
few light rubs on the stubborn places and rinse. The
(00:54):
result a wash that's really clean, washable, colors, gay and
rin So bright safely after dozens of washings, and what
a white washed Renso turns out sheets and shirts and
table linens dazzling Rinso white. So, ladies, make next wash
day a Renso washed day, and whistle while you wash,
and now our stars Amos and Andy well. After waiting
(01:27):
two years for the second payment on the Kingfish's personal
desk at the Lodge Hall, the finance company gave up
hope and took back the desk. That's why we now
find the kingfish in a second hand furniture store about
to buy a desk he can afford. At the moment,
he's being convinced by the salesman that a rickety old
desk he's looking at is a genuine antique. Now, look,
you a muss muller. I ain't complain because the desk
(01:49):
is all bruised up and ready to fall apart. But
as you've got none without them little holes in it.
Speaker 4 (01:54):
Ooh, those little holes, well, those are wormholes. That proves
a genuine antique.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
Is an when antique out they got wormhole.
Speaker 4 (02:02):
Actually, of course there were limitation antiques with man made wormholes,
but those are less expensive.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Less expensive, you mean the men's work cheaper than the worm.
Speaker 4 (02:14):
Okay, what I meant to say was the wormhole stamped.
This is being an authentic antique. As a matter of fact,
this desk actually.
Speaker 5 (02:20):
Belonged to h to George Washington, George Wildon.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Huh, yeah, this must be the one that throwed across
the Potomac.
Speaker 6 (02:29):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
You want six dollars for the thing? Huh?
Speaker 4 (02:31):
Stevens, how can you quibble about six dollars. Remember this
is the desk that the father of our country actually
wrote letters on.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
From the looks of the thing, I guess he rid
him with his little hatchet too. Didn't they tell you
what was muller? I'll take it.
Speaker 7 (02:44):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
I'll give you four dollars now, and you send a
desk over to my oposite the large hall, and I'll
raised the other two dollars before six o'clock.
Speaker 5 (02:50):
All right, Stevens, it's a deal, Amos.
Speaker 8 (03:07):
I can't tell you how sweet it was of you
to come over and bring us this anniversary press.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Oh that's alrighty, south Fire. You and the Kingfish's two
of our closest friends.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Uh, tell me what did the Kingfish give you for
your anniversary?
Speaker 8 (03:20):
I wish you hadn't asked me that, Amos. George walked
out of the house this morning, and he not only
didn't give me a remembrance, he didn't even.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Mention our anniversary.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Terrible. Well, now, look, south Fire, maybe he did that
on purpose, you know, so he could kind of surprise
you to night with the present.
Speaker 8 (03:38):
No, Amos, he just forgot about it. It's because it
don't mean nothing. Took no more Amas, the love thok
went out of fire.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
I mean it, ch or don't say that, south Fire.
The Kingfish still love you, I know he does, well,
not like.
Speaker 8 (03:52):
He used to, Amos. I just took out some old
love letters and he wrote me twenty years ago, just
before our marriage. He'd read the it's short, but it
technique is beautiful.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
It come at some flowers to the most wonderful woman
who ever drew the breath of life. I love you
with all my heart, George. Yeah, south Fire, that's really beautiful, alright.
Speaker 8 (04:15):
Yeah saying it. I was looking over these other poor
letters too. They're all just the same, sweet and affectionate. Oh, Amos,
Why can't George be sweet like that again?
Speaker 1 (04:25):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (04:26):
Well, what we gotta do is kind of remind him.
Uh say, wait a minute.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
I got a idea.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
I'll tell you what I'll do, south Fire. I'll take
these five letters and I'll slip 'em in the Kingfish's
desk at the office, and when he find 'em, it's
gonna remind him of the way he used to feel
about you. See, south Fire, I know this is gonna work. Well,
(04:54):
look at that, and they must have delivered my new
deaths while we was out to lunch.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
Uh that's a new death ma.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (05:00):
Well, if that was a new desk when you bought it,
we must have took longer to eat lunch than we thunk.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
Look at all them holes. Look at them holes in there?
What is them? Or them as worm holes?
Speaker 2 (05:13):
And yeah, that proves the thing was owned by George Washington. Yeah,
there used to be.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Worms in that desk. Man.
Speaker 9 (05:18):
That's a fine thing for a fella to keep the desks, right, boy,

Speaker 9 (05:43):
George, signed George. Uh, well what about it? George is
the common name? Even you has got it?
Speaker 2 (05:50):
They ended. Don't you understand this desk belonged to George Washington?
And if these letters as signed George, then these letters
must have been written by the father of our country.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Yeah, to the Mama of our country.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
Yeah, or see and that this is the greatest thing
that never doesn't happen to me.

Uh why not? I just like George Washington, I can't

Yes, yes, yes, thanks, yeah, and here's the Stevens receipt.
Speaker 4 (11:48):
Or say, before you go, would you mind telling me

Speaker 2 (11:53):
Other world? All I know is that the kings fees
find them letters in the desk. He done bought from you,
and the there was ten thousand dollars.
Speaker 4 (12:02):
Yes man, that's fine, Yes, thanks, yeah, I said goodbye,
so that broken down piece of junk. But he was
at George Washington desk. Well, I'm going over and buy
that back from Stevens before this day's.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
Over come in amos, come in, Hi, and where is
the Kingfish?
Speaker 1 (12:32):
Oh?
Speaker 9 (12:32):
He gone down to see a fellow by the name
of Professor Pepperdine.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
He's gonna sell him something.
Speaker 9 (12:37):
Uh, I'm glad you dropped in, though, Amos, I got
big news to tell you. Me and the Kingfish unrescovered something.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Wait on, all that kingfish and he makes me mad.
Somebody ought to give him a good talking til you
know it?
Speaker 1 (12:50):
What's the matter?
Speaker 2 (12:50):
Well, today is Sapphires and his twentieth wedding anniversary and
he done clean forgot about it. Sapphires all broke up,
she crying and everything else.
Speaker 9 (13:00):
Well, believe me, Amos, the Kingfish got a good excuse
for having a slipper's mind today.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Oh no, he ain't neither. I tell you what me
and staff Fire done figured out a way to kind
of jog his memory and remind him of the way
he used to feel about her. And we've done it,
you see, but he didn't pay no attention to it. Well,
I'll tell you what you see. I put five old
love letters that he written to her twenty years ago
in that old desk that he bought for the office.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Yeah. Well, the big news that I'm gonna was, Amos.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
Did I hear you say something about putting five letters
in the King Figure's desk. That's right, and yeah, but
it didn't do no good.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Tell me?
Speaker 2 (13:40):
And what was the big news that you was gonna
tell me?
Speaker 9 (13:43):
It just got smaller? Oh me, why don't nothing ever
work out?
Speaker 1 (13:52):
Right?
Speaker 2 (13:52):
It seemed like Mike Castle's always come crumbling down, Amos
with your mind leaving me alone.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
I got some heavy figure to do a sure?
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Andy?
Speaker 3 (14:01):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (14:01):
What is you gotta figure out how I was gonna
get twelve dollars back?
Speaker 3 (14:15):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (14:15):
But Professor Pepperdine, Uh, I can't understand it.
Speaker 11 (14:18):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Is you show these letters wasn't written by George Washington.
Speaker 6 (14:22):
Not only that, but the original contents of these letters
weren't written more than twenty years ago. M No, my
advice to you, Stevens is not to even attempt to
sell them as George Washington letters, or you end up
in jail.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
Uh. Well, I she would like to get my hands
on the big bomb to writ these letters in the
first place. Well, thanks anyway, professor, so long, goodbye. Well,
there's only one thing to do. I gotta get a
hold of Andy and sell him my hair for the
partnership for another twelve dollars. Andy and the Kingfish seem
(15:06):
to have similar thoughts. Involving a sum of twelve dollars,
we'll learn who comes out ahead in just a moment. Meantime, Ladies,
how many personalities do you have? Are you always gay
and optimistic? Or do you find yourself planning a meal?
Speaker 1 (15:18):
This way?
Speaker 8 (15:19):
We'll have fruit cup and chicken pie and candied sweet
potatoes and Berkeley.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
And then suddenly your other self speaks up, and.
Speaker 8 (15:30):
That means casseroles to wash, and saucepans and the big
baking dish.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
That it's a grim prospect, isn't it. But ladies, you
can squelch that melancholy otherr self. Put Sophie Richer in
soo SuDS to work on those dishes. Those thick, busy
SuDS get rid of every bit of sticky food and
grease in a jiffy, crusted food particles scoot right off
the scene, and before you know it, you'll have a
pile of sparkling clean dishes. Everything from casseroles and baking
(15:56):
dishes right down to cups and saucers clean and bright
as a whistle. And when you use rinso for all
your soap and water jobs, your house will shine from
cellar to Attic, say, Rinso's easy on your hands too.
So tomorrow, first thing, get Rinso. And now back to
Amos and Andy. Well, now that Professor Pepperdine has convinced
(16:27):
the Kingfish that the letters he had were not written
by George Washington, and now that Andy knows they actually
are the Kingfish's old love letters, both partners are looking
for each other in the hope of disposing of his
interest in the partnership without tipping off the other. As
we join them now, they're getting down the business in
the Kingfish's office, and the lad to drop him because uh,
(16:48):
just sit in your standing, mousseau, and the Brown is
the best friend I've gotten A certainly loves him.
Speaker 9 (16:53):
Well, I just come over here to tell you that
I is crazy about you too.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
Now look, and I'll I wanna tell you about my
love for us. And I appreciate it if you wouldn't
interrupt me. All right, Sorry, sorry, anyway, I keep saying
to myself. And the Brown is always doing things for him,
lends them money when it wants it, comforts me in
my hour of needs?
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Is that me assure? As you? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (17:16):
And then I find I asked myself this question I said,
George Stevens, when is you gonna do something for Andy?
When is you gonna pay back that great friendship of
this noble, generous, wonderful man.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
Is that still me? That still be yours?
Speaker 2 (17:32):
And the answer come back to Manda here. I got
these George Washington letters.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Why don't I give him the ander?
Speaker 2 (17:39):
I say to myself, Yeah, let him make a ten
thousand dollars cools ander, Just so I don't rembarrass you
too much by doing such a great favor for you,
I let you pay him measly twelve dollars for my
half interest.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
Man, tell me this King Fisher. Is you all through
with the love stuff? Now?
Speaker 6 (17:54):

much as I does you, much more, much more, brother,

all your used kitchen fats, and whenever you get a pound,
rush it right down to your butcher. He'll pay you
four cents plus two red ration points for every pound
you turn in. This is hollow Wilcox saying good night
