I don't really know myself. I think I'll have him
(07:25):
escape from the dungeon. Who tyrone? I thought he fell
off a cliff and got killed in chapter twenty. He
wasn't really dead. It wasn't. How come penicillum? You know

(07:48):
I can't finish it cause I gotta go to school. Phoebe,
You could do something for me, No, I can't. You
don't even know what I was gonna say. It doesn't matter.
Every time you ask me to do something for you,
I get into trump, Phoebe, Listen, nobody knows knows me
(08:11):
and this new school see, and nobody knows either. What
do you mean if you went to the school for
me this week? I I could finish my book and
might be famous. Uh, and I'd give it a half
a money I'd make. Jeez, Nugs, What you have to
(08:32):
do is to go to that new school and say
you're Snook's Higgins. But I doesn't look like you. They
don't know what I look like either. Next week, when
you'll be back in your own school and everything, it'll
be get fine.
Speaker 1 (08:45):

didn't you what would out to live a dinner? Yeah,
(09:06):

to say no. All you have to do is sit
in the school. And when they say snooks, Higgins, you
say present. That's all sebe.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
Nine thirty nine thirty. How does he get so late
so fast? Hello Higgins, what's the right Hello Wilcox. I've
got to get to the office Monday morning, you know,
and I've just seen snooks after school. Oh what a day.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
I think it's a beautiful day, Higgins.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Bright as a dish of jello, Wilcox, life is so
simple for you, just one big dish of jello, exactly.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
And right now I'm trying to dream up a new
Jello slogan.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
What's the matter with the ones you have?
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Well, they're fine. Take six delicious flavors. Well that's just
what they are, six delicious jellow flavors strawberry, raspberry, cherry, orange, lemon,
and lime. But I'm looking for something else besides Well
maybe I could help swell. But first ask yourself what's
found only in jello? Well, in our house it's usually snooks. No, no, no,
(10:20):
I mean that famous locked in jello flavor. You know
that flavor pal inspiration itself, a rich fruit goodness put
into jello by an exclusive process and locked right in.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
That's what soup should be, locked right.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
In, Higgins. Forget snookes. Concentrate on jello. I know you
may not have had any lately. It's sometimes hard to
find these days because of the sugar shortage. But look,
concentrate pal all right, how about it?
Speaker 2 (10:47):
I'm all a shiver for the dish, A quiver that

Speaker 2 (18:19):
I'll stop that. Enough is enough. Now go over there

I hear your papers. The last sentence you wrote was
Angela could still feel Tyrone's half burning kisses on her coat. Snooks,
(18:41):
is this your schoolwork? What subject? Arithmetic? Arithmetic?
Speaker 4 (18:50):
I mean spelling, daddy. The teacher gave us his composition dee,
so we would learn to spell all the words.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
Well, fine words for a child to learn how to spell. Well,
I'm going to have a thing or two to say
at that parent teacher's meeting tonight.
Speaker 5 (19:15):
Well, hello, mister Courtney, how are you fine?
Speaker 2 (19:18):
Miss Fostik. Looks like the new school is going to
be a boon to our neighborhood. Oh this is Higgins.
How are you Higgins? Oh hello Courtney. Oh see Higgins.
I'd like you to meet miss Fostick. I believe your
daughter is in her class.
Speaker 5 (19:32):
Oh really, no, I think it must be another Higgins.
The little Higgins girl in my class is named Snirks.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
That's my daughter.
Speaker 5 (19:42):
Oh oh oh what just oh?
Speaker 4 (19:51):
Oh adopted, isn't she?
Speaker 6 (19:53):
No?
Speaker 2 (19:56):
No, no, I have three honors just like her, just
like her, just like her. Oh, miss Fosdick. May I
ask who's going to preside over this meeting?
Speaker 4 (20:12):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (20:12):
Why, yes you are, miss Fosdick.
Speaker 4 (20:15):
Oh oh yes.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
Well, then if you please allow me to be the
first speaker. I have a number of things to say
to this meeting.
Speaker 5 (20:23):
Certainly, I certainly we'll call it to order right now,
and I'll introduce you. The meeting will come to order, please,
ladies and gentlemen of the Parent Teachers Association, I'd like
to introduce our first speaker of the evening, mister Sam Higgins.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
Shah. Well, that does it, ladies and gentlemen. I am
a patient man, but I happen to pick up a
little composition my daughter brought home from school today. This
composition was given to her by her teacher, Miss Fosdik.
It was, without question, the most vicious, the most revolting,
(21:02):
the most reprehensible, the most porta. Well, it looks like.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Daddy, with Snout's help, has put his foot in it again.
They'll be back in a moment. We'll see how Daddy
gets himself out of this. You know, there's something about
that old fashioned, homemade goodness of jello puddings that reminds
you of grandmother's big sunny kitchen. When swell things to
eat we're in the making. Only jello puddings are quick
and easy and so good. They're just like Grandma's only
(21:31):
more so, Jello, chocolate, butterscotch and vanilla pudding, all three
cooked to velvety smooth perfection in just about five minutes. Now,
let's say you're lucky enough to find a package of
jello vanilla pudding at your grocer's. Turn it into a
super treat this way. Prepare it by the easy directions
on the box and let it chill. Then place fresh
fruit in the bottom of sherbet glasses, luscious sliced peaches,
(21:53):
juicy blackberries or blueberries, and pile your jellow vanilla pudding
on top. That rich, creamy they were as marvelous combined
with fruit makes a real company dish. Jello chocolate pudding
is grand cram full of chocolate e goodness and jello
butterscotch pudding with that old time buttery brown sugar taste.
So take whatever flavor you can find and remember, when
(22:16):
the sugar shortage is over, there'll be plenty of jello
puddings again. And now let's go back to the Higgins home.
Daddy is just returning from the heated session at the
parent teachers meeting.
Speaker 3 (22:35):
Oh hello, Lancelot, I've been waiting for you to get back.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Hello, Fira, believe me. I told them a thing or two.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
Well, I hope you didn't do anything.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Rash rash. They won't forget in a hurry. What went
on at that meeting tonight, Lancelot. Missus Watson called burning kisses.
I let them have it with both barrels.
Speaker 3 (22:52):
Missus Watson called Snooks wasn't at school today?
Speaker 2 (22:54):
So you think twice before they what'd you say? Snooks
wasn't at school?
Speaker 3 (23:00):
Missus Watson's little daughter Phoebe took her place?
Speaker 2 (23:04):
Why? What do you mean?
Speaker 3 (23:06):
Just what I said?
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Good queer ish?
Speaker 4 (23:10):
She Lancelot put down that golf club. You can't get
at her. I've locked her in the bathroom.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
I toe you, I'll get her. I'll get her if
I have to track her down to the far corners
of the earth.
Speaker 6 (23:22):
Oh what have I done?
Speaker 2 (23:24):
What have I said to those poor people at the meeting?
Oh that poor miss Fosdick?
Speaker 4 (23:30):
What did you say?
Speaker 2 (23:31):
What didn't I say? Out of my way?
Speaker 3 (23:33):
Hear?
Speaker 2 (23:34):
This is man's work. Snook says to be taught a
lesson once and for all.
Speaker 3 (23:37):
Lancelot Higgins, you stay right down here. You're going to
listen to me for once you and that hot head
of yours. What happened at that meeting tonight? But you
made a fool of yourself?
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Yes, but why soups deliberately?
Speaker 3 (23:49):
No child likes to go to school.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
It's up to the.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
Parents to ask to make you appreciate.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
What school means. There's a job for you, certainly.
Speaker 3 (23:57):
There are more intelligent ways than spanking a couple. Reason
for one, you can reason with a child. Take snooks,
she idolizes you?
Speaker 2 (24:06):
No, Oh, she does, of course.
Speaker 3 (24:12):
All day long, in a thousand different ways. She's imitating
her father.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
Oh, no kidding.
Speaker 3 (24:20):
You Talk to her. Tell her how you felt when
you were her age. How much you like to go
to school?
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (24:29):
What are you laughing at? Like to go to school?
Did I ever tell you about the time I ran
away and joined the circuit? Yes?
Speaker 3 (24:37):
Oh, and you also told me about the time you
locked a skunk in the schoolhouse overnight.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
Oh I did I remember that? Boy? We had open

I don't really know myself. I think I'll have him
(07:25):
escape from the dungeon. Who tyrone? I thought he fell
off a cliff and got killed in chapter twenty. He
wasn't really dead. It wasn't. How come penicillum? You know
the wonder drug? Gee? That sounds exciting, Snike, But now
(07:48):
I can't finish it cause I gotta go to school. Phoebe,
You could do something for me, No, I can't. You
don't even know what I was gonna say. It doesn't matter.
Every time you ask me to do something for you,
I get into trump, Phoebe, Listen, nobody knows knows me
(08:11):
and this new school see, and nobody knows either. What
do you mean if you went to the school for
me this week? I I could finish my book and
might be famous. Uh, and I'd give it a half
a money I'd make. Jeez, Nugs, What you have to
(08:32):
do is to go to that new school and say
you're Snook's Higgins. But I doesn't look like you. They
don't know what I look like either. Next week, when
you'll be back in your own school and everything, it'll
be get fine.
Speaker 1 (08:45):

to say no. All you have to do is sit
in the school. And when they say snooks, Higgins, you
say present. That's all sebe.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
Nine thirty nine thirty. How does he get so late
so fast? Hello Higgins, what's the right Hello Wilcox. I've
got to get to the office Monday morning, you know,
and I've just seen snooks after school. Oh what a day.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
I think it's a beautiful day, Higgins.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Bright as a dish of jello, Wilcox, life is so
simple for you, just one big dish of jello, exactly.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
And right now I'm trying to dream up a new
Jello slogan.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
What's the matter with the ones you have?
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Well, they're fine. Take six delicious flavors. Well that's just
what they are, six delicious jellow flavors strawberry, raspberry, cherry, orange, lemon,
and lime. But I'm looking for something else besides Well
maybe I could help swell. But first ask yourself what's
found only in jello? Well, in our house it's usually snooks. No, no, no,
(10:20):
I mean that famous locked in jello flavor. You know
that flavor pal inspiration itself, a rich fruit goodness put
into jello by an exclusive process and locked right in.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
That's what soup should be, locked right.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
In, Higgins. Forget snookes. Concentrate on jello. I know you
may not have had any lately. It's sometimes hard to
find these days because of the sugar shortage. But look,
concentrate pal all right, how about it?
Speaker 2 (10:47):

Speaker 4 (18:50):

so we would learn to spell all the words.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
Well, fine words for a child to learn how to spell. Well,
I'm going to have a thing or two to say
at that parent teacher's meeting tonight.
Speaker 5 (19:15):
Well, hello, mister Courtney, how are you fine?
Speaker 2 (19:18):
Miss Fostik. Looks like the new school is going to
be a boon to our neighborhood. Oh this is Higgins.
How are you Higgins? Oh hello Courtney. Oh see Higgins.
I'd like you to meet miss Fostick. I believe your
daughter is in her class.
Speaker 5 (19:32):
Oh really, no, I think it must be another Higgins.
The little Higgins girl in my class is named Snirks.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
That's my daughter.
Speaker 5 (19:42):
Oh oh oh what just oh?
Speaker 4 (19:51):

Speaker 2 (19:56):
No, no, I have three honors just like her, just

ask who's going to preside over this meeting?
Speaker 4 (20:12):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (20:12):
Why, yes you are, miss Fosdick.
Speaker 4 (20:15):
Oh oh yes.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
Well, then if you please allow me to be the
first speaker. I have a number of things to say
to this meeting.
Speaker 5 (20:23):
Certainly, I certainly we'll call it to order right now,
and I'll introduce you. The meeting will come to order, please,
ladies and gentlemen of the Parent Teachers Association, I'd like
to introduce our first speaker of the evening, mister Sam Higgins.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
Shah. Well, that does it, ladies and gentlemen. I am
a patient man, but I happen to pick up a
little composition my daughter brought home from school today. This
composition was given to her by her teacher, Miss Fosdik.
It was, without question, the most vicious, the most revolting,
(21:02):
the most reprehensible, the most porta. Well, it looks like.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Daddy, with Snout's help, has put his foot in it again.
They'll be back in a moment. We'll see how Daddy
gets himself out of this. You know, there's something about
that old fashioned, homemade goodness of jello puddings that reminds
you of grandmother's big sunny kitchen. When swell things to
eat we're in the making. Only jello puddings are quick
and easy and so good. They're just like Grandma's only
(21:31):
more so, Jello, chocolate, butterscotch and vanilla pudding, all three
cooked to velvety smooth perfection in just about five minutes. Now,
let's say you're lucky enough to find a package of
jello vanilla pudding at your grocer's. Turn it into a
super treat this way. Prepare it by the easy directions
on the box and let it chill. Then place fresh
fruit in the bottom of sherbet glasses, luscious sliced peaches,
(21:53):
juicy blackberries or blueberries, and pile your jellow vanilla pudding
on top. That rich, creamy they were as marvelous combined
with fruit makes a real company dish. Jello chocolate pudding
is grand cram full of chocolate e goodness and jello
butterscotch pudding with that old time buttery brown sugar taste.
So take whatever flavor you can find and remember, when
(22:16):
the sugar shortage is over, there'll be plenty of jello
puddings again. And now let's go back to the Higgins home.
Daddy is just returning from the heated session at the
parent teachers meeting.
Speaker 3 (22:35):
Oh hello, Lancelot, I've been waiting for you to get back.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Hello, Fira, believe me. I told them a thing or two.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
Well, I hope you didn't do anything.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Rash rash. They won't forget in a hurry. What went
on at that meeting tonight, Lancelot. Missus Watson called burning kisses.
I let them have it with both barrels.
Speaker 3 (22:52):
Missus Watson called Snooks wasn't at school today?
Speaker 2 (22:54):
So you think twice before they what'd you say? Snooks
wasn't at school?
Speaker 3 (23:00):
Missus Watson's little daughter Phoebe took her place?
Speaker 2 (23:04):
Why? What do you mean?
Speaker 3 (23:06):
Just what I said?
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Good queer ish?
Speaker 4 (23:10):
She Lancelot put down that golf club. You can't get
at her. I've locked her in the bathroom.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
I toe you, I'll get her. I'll get her if
I have to track her down to the far corners
of the earth.
Speaker 6 (23:22):
Oh what have I done?
Speaker 2 (23:24):
What have I said to those poor people at the meeting?
Oh that poor miss Fosdick?
Speaker 4 (23:30):
What did you say?
Speaker 2 (23:31):
What didn't I say? Out of my way?
Speaker 3 (23:33):
Hear?
Speaker 2 (23:34):
This is man's work. Snook says to be taught a
lesson once and for all.
Speaker 3 (23:37):
Lancelot Higgins, you stay right down here. You're going to
listen to me for once you and that hot head
of yours. What happened at that meeting tonight? But you
made a fool of yourself?
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Yes, but why soups deliberately?
Speaker 3 (23:49):
No child likes to go to school.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
It's up to the.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
Parents to ask to make you appreciate.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
What school means. There's a job for you, certainly.
Speaker 3 (23:57):
There are more intelligent ways than spanking a couple. Reason
for one, you can reason with a child. Take snooks,
she idolizes you?
Speaker 2 (24:06):
No, Oh, she does, of course.
Speaker 3 (24:12):
All day long, in a thousand different ways. She's imitating
her father.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
Oh, no kidding.
Speaker 3 (24:20):
You Talk to her. Tell her how you felt when
you were her age. How much you like to go
to school?
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (24:29):
What are you laughing at? Like to go to school?
Did I ever tell you about the time I ran
away and joined the circuit? Yes?
Speaker 3 (24:37):
Oh, and you also told me about the time you
locked a skunk in the schoolhouse overnight.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
Oh I did I remember that? Boy? We had open
air classes for a week.
Speaker 3 (24:51):
Oh that's better. Now you calm down. You know you
can apologize to those people tomorrow. But there's no apology
for being a bad father.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
I'll go up and talk to him. No balling of
course not, darling snokes. Yes, kay, snokes, I just want oh,
come out from one of the blanket snoves. I'm not
going to spank you. Well come out, I am out.
Speaker 4 (25:23):

Speaker 2 (25:25):
Oh, well, who's this under the blanket?
Speaker 4 (25:29):

Speaker 2 (25:36):
Now, snokes, I don't understand you. I try to be
a good father, don't I do you You know I do?
But you put so many obstacles in my way right, yes, o,
how you knew i'd make a fool of myself at
the PTA meeting because you weren't in school today?
Speaker 4 (25:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (25:57):
Why didn't you tell me?
Speaker 4 (25:59):
You didna ask me?
Speaker 2 (26:01):
That's not the point. What's important is the fact that
you missed school.
Speaker 4 (26:06):
I didn't miss it at all.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
Well, later in life, believe me, you'll appreciate how important
schooling is. Now, I want you to promise me you'll
never stay away.
Speaker 1 (26:16):

Speaker 2 (26:17):
I promise, And you'll always confide in me. I promise,
no matter what's your problem is, remember I stand ready
to help you.

Speaker 2 (26:31):
Well, I love you too, snookes. And now before I
turn out the lights and you go to sleep. Is
there anything you want? Is there anything at all I can.

Speaker 6 (26:43):

LaFrance works right along with my soul that I can
wash and blue at the same time. That means no
