the Craft Cheese Company presents for your enjoyment, Harold Perry
(00:22):
is the Great Gilder Sleeve, written by Leonard L.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Levinson.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
We'll hear from the Great Gilder Sleeve in just a moment,
but first let me remind you the fall is coming
in winter too. And when chilly winter weather really comes,
your family is going to need plenty of wholesome, nourishing
energy food. Now, one reliable and economical source of energy
is parquet marginin.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
Made by Craft.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
Yes, this delicious new marginman called parque is a protective
food of high nutritional value. And to make it even
better for you, Craft ads import vitamin A to Park
Margarine's natural goodness, nine thousand units to every single pound. Now,
of course, all this wholesome food value wouldn't do much
good if your family didn't like Park Margarine. Well, we
(01:12):
think they will. Thousands of American families do. Yes, they
like Park Margarine's delicate, satisfying flavor for table use, for baking,
and for pan crying. Best of all, Park Margarine is economical,
yet it's made by Craft to the same high standards
as all craft food products. But why not find out
for yourself? Yes, why not try a pound or two
(01:35):
of wholesome nourishing park Margarine tomorrow, just ask for Park
p r Kay and now for the adventures of the
(01:56):
Great Guilder Sleeve.

Speaker 4 (02:19):
I just dourbed.
Speaker 3 (02:20):
Yeah, that's all right, Marjorie. I was just checking your
household expenses. Part of my job is guardian for you
and Leroy.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
You know, we never had any trouble with little things
like that before.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
We never had to count to Judge Hooker before either.
Why that dyspeptic little judicial blunder.
Speaker 4 (02:33):
Oh no, welcome boy. I'll let you get on with you.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
Yes, I'll have to start all over again. Nine and

Speaker 3 (02:55):
Yes, nine and a cheese sandwich is eighteen twenty six
I got it right the first time.
Speaker 4 (03:02):
And seven is says suppose I could buy a swell
airplane mortar cheap? What would you say?
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Nine? And nine? There's eighteen where I am I all
back at the bottom again.
Speaker 4 (03:12):
But I can, uncle More, I can buy a practically
brand new bumblebee plane mortar for nineteen dollars from Piggy
Banks Water, Piggy Banks, no anything. He's my pal, and
this engine is such a bargain I'm ashamed to buy
it for that price.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
You needn't be a shame, Leroy, you're not gonna buy it.
But uncle More, young man, you're far too young to
take up flying.
Speaker 4 (03:30):
But this is a miniature plane motor, says right, my model,
super duper swooper.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Oh a model play you know? Well, I forgot you
were a flying bud.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
That's a good, uncle mort How's about that nineteen dollars?
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Hold on, Leroy, nineteen dollars is a lot of money.
Speaker 4 (03:47):
Oh not for this motor runk. Piggy never poppled it
except as plane midt emergency landing into his pop store window, and.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
He wants nineteen dollars for the motor.
Speaker 4 (03:55):
No, I wants nineteen dollars for a new window. Can
I have a doll uncle more?
Speaker 3 (03:59):
Well, I'm afraid not. That's quite a large sum. And
you know I've got to account to Judge Hooker for
every penny. You children spin.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
Oh, why can't he keep his nose out of our business?
Speaker 3 (04:07):
But that is his business, leroy, sticking his nose into
other people's. And he's got plenty of equipment for the
job too.
Speaker 4 (04:14):
But gee, where's Uncle Moore? I bet you had a
model airplane mortar when you were my age.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
When I was your age, my boy, there were no airplanes.
Everybody thought the right brothers were wrong.
Speaker 4 (04:27):
Well, I bet you had some hobby.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Let me see what did I have? Oh?
Speaker 3 (04:31):
Yes, yes, I had dynamite. Dynamite, Yes, dynamite was the
name of my Settland pony.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
He was my hobby.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
That little horse, I can see him now, bless his
shaggy coat.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
Well, okay, if you could have a big horse, unk,
why can't I have a little mortar.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
Because I earned the money to buy dynamite.
Speaker 4 (04:50):
My boy, you are nineteen bucks. How'd you do it.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Well selling lobsters.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
I lived on the East Coast when I was a lad,
and I got my spending money out of a string
of lobster pot.
Speaker 4 (05:00):
I never new lobsters grew in pots.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
Yes, they don't grow there, Leroy, that's how you catch them.
I can still remember how hard it was in the winter,
getting up before dawn, rowing five miles, sometimes in a
biting gale just to tend my pots, Rowing back to
market with my boat full of lobsters in my hands,
full of blisters, then walking five miles to school. Yes,
it's wonderful to think what you'll do when you're young
(05:23):
and you want a pony.
Speaker 4 (05:24):
Say whatever became of that pony?
Speaker 3 (05:26):
Well, I took Dynamite to school one day and he
bet the teacher we didn't have school for a month.
Speaker 4 (05:34):
She instead of a mortro. Maybe I should get a pony. Eh, No,
I guess not astar aviation. There's more of a future
than that.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
Yes, but Leroy, I said, I wasn't going to give
you the money.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
Oh that's all right, Uncle Moore. How I'm gonna earn it,
just like you did.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
A splendid idea.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
It'll help build your character, like it did mine.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
How are you going to do it?
Speaker 4 (05:52):
All I gotta do is find a job and earn
nineteen dollars? Then would you let me buy piggies bumblebee engine.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
I'll do better than that, my boy, Seeing that you're
so ambitious, I'll advantage the money out of my own pocket.
You will, ye, and you can pay me back as
you earn it.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
Hot gee, Uncle Moore, you've got a heart as big
as you're. As big as you are, Uncle More, and
don't worry about me paying your back. I'll get a
job of no time. And can I have the nineteen
dollars now, Uncle More?
Speaker 2 (06:19):
No?
Speaker 4 (06:20):
Yeah, Piggy's here with me. He can't go home until
he gets the money.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Oh, yes, I see, well here.

it up on the porch.
Speaker 4 (20:30):
Oh no, no, you can't do that. It's early bird
on allowed to throw papers. Uncle more.

Well, I'm no early bird. I'll bet my aim is
still pretty good. All it's all right, Just this once? Suh,

Speaker 4 (21:52):
Sounds like you're catching a cold? How I got four
more papers delivered? Why don't you go home from here?
Speaker 3 (21:57):
Oh no, I wouldn't run out on you. Well, if
you insist, that's a different matter. Maybe I better get
into some dry clothes.
Speaker 4 (22:03):
Just go straight down twenty first podcast.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
So hungry Roy, see you at home?
Speaker 3 (22:10):
Well, it's as cold as Judge Hooker's heart, and I'm
as wet as a mad hen. I wonder if those
policemen would mind giving me a lift home? Well, nothing ventured,
nothing game?
Speaker 2 (22:20):
Hey officer? Yeah, hello officer. I wonder if you're going
my way. I'm all wet, I'll say, you're all wet.
Why don't you call a cab, mister?
Speaker 3 (22:34):
Well, you know how cabs are. They're like policemen. Anytime
you need one, you can never find.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Oh what am I saying? Present company? Excepted of course?
Where you have been, buddy? Oh? Hello two of you. Well,
I've been out delivering morning.
Speaker 8 (22:52):
Papers, delivering papers and pajamas and bedroom slippers, an overcoat,
don't forget what.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
Do you think?
Speaker 3 (22:58):
Joel smells smells to me too, well, I assure you officers,
is true. I did it all from my little nephew's character.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
We're building it. You know.
Speaker 3 (23:10):
It was raining too hard for him to take his bicycle,
so I drove him around.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
Yeah, where's your car? It broke down where?
Speaker 3 (23:17):
Well, I can't tell you exactly, but it was right
near a no fishing sign?
Speaker 5 (23:21):
Yeah, or where's your nephew?
Speaker 2 (23:23):
He went that way? Say follows, I'm terribly cold. Couldn't
you give me a lift?
Speaker 8 (23:29):
W do you think?
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Joe? Okay?
Speaker 5 (23:32):

Speaker 2 (23:33):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (23:34):

Speaker 2 (23:42):
Side got a Joe? Sure? Oh but you're headed the
wrong way, Joe. Oh no, I'm not, buddy, I'm headed
for police head. Oh my goodness.
Speaker 8 (24:05):
Now, mister Gildersleeve, you say your rain wasn't very good?
Speaker 3 (24:08):
Yes, judge rand I hadn't had much sleep, and well
I had the wind and the rain and my hair
and my eyes.
Speaker 8 (24:15):
And so instead of throwing the paper on this man's porch,
you've broke an upstairs window.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
Yes, I was trying to throw a curve your honor.
Speaker 8 (24:24):
Well, mister Gilda's Sleeve, your story sounds reasonable. And if
you just wait in the sergeant's office lee and check it.
Oh gladly, I think you'll be able to go home
in an hour or less.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
I want to thank you, Judge rand for being so
nice to me.
Speaker 10 (24:37):
Here you caught the man who tried to kill me.
Speaker 5 (24:38):
Let's good, look at him.
Speaker 2 (24:39):
Here here one moment.
Speaker 5 (24:40):
This is a police court, not a pool room.
Speaker 10 (24:43):
Who are you, Judge Hooker, Superior Court Department twenty five.
Speaker 8 (24:45):
Well, I'm just as the peace ran the Sunrise Court.
Take off your hat.
Speaker 10 (24:49):
Oh excuse me. I'm a little excited. My life's been
threatening and I want to confront the coward.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
Who. Yeah, hello, Judge Hooker.
Speaker 5 (24:59):
You you know this man? Of course? What's he doing here?
Speaker 4 (25:02):
Well?
Speaker 5 (25:03):
We picked him up near your face. He's the one.
I see it all.
Speaker 10 (25:06):
Now you are trying order, yes, order or on the
court order Now, Guildersleeve, you better make a clean rest
of it. Confess and I might be inclined to be
more lenient.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
Say wait a.
Speaker 10 (25:19):
Second, all right, it's all right, I'm trying this case.
Speaker 8 (25:22):
Now tell me, Guildersleeve, what was.
Speaker 5 (25:24):
In that newspaper you threw into my bedroom.
Speaker 2 (25:26):
I don't know what was in the Judge, I didn't
read it.
Speaker 8 (25:30):
Now, Judge Hooker, I've heard this man story, yelous Leeve.
Speaker 10 (25:36):
You're guilty of breaking and entering my home.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
The Judge, I've ever been in your home. It's through something,
didn't you, Yes?
Speaker 10 (25:40):
And it broke something and in it somewhere, didn't it.
Speaker 4 (25:42):
Yes, And by your own admission, you're guilty.
Speaker 10 (25:44):
And by virtue of the laws of the state, I
here by sentence sort of war.
Speaker 8 (25:47):
Yet one moment, Judge Hooker, this isn't your court. I'm
the judge here, and I'm capable of running things all right.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
All right, I don't want to tell you your business.
Then don't.
Speaker 8 (25:59):
Oh, mister guilder Sleeve, I don't think it's necessary to
question your word any further.
Speaker 5 (26:03):
You broke Judge.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
Hooker's windows, that right, yes, sir.
Speaker 8 (26:06):
And for that, mister Gildersleeve, I'm going to require you
to pay for installing a new window.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
Yes, sir, that all you're.
Speaker 4 (26:11):
Going to do.
Speaker 8 (26:12):
No, not quite better. I've never before seen such disregard
for the dignity of a court room of the rights.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
Of others, as you shown here this morning.
Speaker 8 (26:21):
Judge Hooker, who me yes, and I'm going to cite
you for contempt to court twenty five dollars fine or
thirty days in jail.
Speaker 2 (26:30):
Yeah, this is wonderful.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
The great Guilder Sleeve will be with us again in
a few minutes.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
But right now, I wonder what the park.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
Margarine users who are listening in would say if I
ask them why they like park. Well, it's a pretty
good guest that they like park first because of its
delicious flavor, and a good many would answer too that
they like Parquet because they can use it so many ways. Yes,
Parquet margmin is so good tasting you'll be proud to
serve it at your table. And for the same reason
(27:12):
you like it for seasoning, for baking and for pan
frying too.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
Why more and more.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
These days, good cooks are insisting on a flavor shortening
for baking, a shortening that adds its own tempting taste
to cookies, cakes, and pastries. And a flavor shortening is
just what Parkue Margmin is. You'll find Parquet's flavor makes
it a delicious seasoning for hot vegetables too, and a
grand fat for pan frying that doesn't spatterers stick to
(27:38):
the pans. And whether you use parquet marginin at the
table for seasoning, as a flavor shortening or for pan frying,
don't forget parquet is a nutritious food and a reliable
year round source of vitamin A. Now, when you go
to your food store, don't just ask for margarine, ask
for parquet margarine made by Kraft. Remember Kraft's reputation for
(27:59):
quality backs every pound of park, so be sure to
say park margin.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
It's made by crap.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
You know, Leroy, I don't think this paper rout was
such a good idea after all.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
I wish you'd give it up.
Speaker 4 (28:33):
I want to talk about it.
Speaker 3 (28:34):
If you quit this job, I'll pay for that motor myself.
I'm stalking, rupting, Leroy. I'll even buy you the most
expensive model plane there is if you don't carry papers anymore.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
I'll make up your mind, Leroy, Will you take my offer?
Speaker 4 (28:46):
Why I feel that way about it?
Speaker 2 (28:48):
Okay? Now what were you going to say?
Speaker 4 (28:51):
I was playing to tell you uncle, what I was
fired this morning?
Speaker 2 (28:54):
What good night?
Speaker 1 (29:07):
You have probably heard that September fifteenth to twentieth is
retailers for Defense Week. During this week, your regular food
dealer will be selling defense stands. When shopping, you can
help this patriotic cause by taking your change in defense stands.
Speaker 2 (29:21):
Original music heard on this.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
Program was composed and conducted by William Randall. This is
Jim Bannon speaking for the Craft Cheese Company and inviting
you to be with us again next week at the
same time for further adventures of the Great Guilder Slaves.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
This is the National Broadcasting con
Craft presents the Great Gilder Sleeve each week at this time,
the Craft Cheese Company presents for your enjoyment, Harold Perry
(00:22):
is the Great Gilder Sleeve, written by Leonard L.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Levinson.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
We'll hear from the Great Gilder Sleeve in just a moment,
but first let me remind you the fall is coming
in winter too. And when chilly winter weather really comes,
your family is going to need plenty of wholesome, nourishing
energy food. Now, one reliable and economical source of energy
is parquet marginin.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
Made by Craft.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
Yes, this delicious new marginman called parque is a protective
food of high nutritional value. And to make it even
better for you, Craft ads import vitamin A to Park
Margarine's natural goodness, nine thousand units to every single pound. Now,
of course, all this wholesome food value wouldn't do much
good if your family didn't like Park Margarine. Well, we
(01:12):
think they will. Thousands of American families do. Yes, they
like Park Margarine's delicate, satisfying flavor for table use, for baking,
and for pan crying. Best of all, Park Margarine is economical,
yet it's made by Craft to the same high standards
as all craft food products. But why not find out
for yourself? Yes, why not try a pound or two
(01:35):
of wholesome nourishing park Margarine tomorrow, just ask for Park
p r Kay and now for the adventures of the
(01:56):
Great Guilder Sleeve.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Yes, and now I'll check the grocery bill. Nine and
nine is eighteen and eight is twenty eight, twenty six
and seven is let me see thirty three and five is.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
What are you doing on thirty three? And Oh no,
I've lost my place.
Speaker 4 (02:19):
I just dourbed.
Speaker 3 (02:20):
Yeah, that's all right, Marjorie. I was just checking your
household expenses. Part of my job is guardian for you
and Leroy.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
You know, we never had any trouble with little things
like that before.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
We never had to count to Judge Hooker before either.
Why that dyspeptic little judicial blunder.
Speaker 4 (02:33):
Oh no, welcome boy. I'll let you get on with you.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
Yes, I'll have to start all over again. Nine and
nine is eighteen and eight is twenty eight, twenty six
and seven.
Speaker 4 (02:42):
Is human mister Gilsey hamm will beef.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
And seven lost it again? Ham or beef? What fill in?
What pilling?
Speaker 4 (02:50):
Sandwich?
Speaker 5 (02:50):
Pilling?
Speaker 2 (02:50):
What sandwich?
Speaker 4 (02:51):
That's what I want to know?
Speaker 2 (02:52):
Ham will beef cheese, Yes.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
Yes, nine and a cheese sandwich is eighteen twenty six
I got it right the first time.
Speaker 4 (03:02):
And seven is says suppose I could buy a swell
airplane mortar cheap? What would you say?
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Nine? And nine? There's eighteen where I am I all
back at the bottom again.
Speaker 4 (03:12):
But I can, uncle More, I can buy a practically
brand new bumblebee plane mortar for nineteen dollars from Piggy
Banks Water, Piggy Banks, no anything. He's my pal, and
this engine is such a bargain I'm ashamed to buy
it for that price.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
You needn't be a shame, Leroy, you're not gonna buy it.
But uncle More, young man, you're far too young to
take up flying.
Speaker 4 (03:30):
But this is a miniature plane motor, says right, my model,
super duper swooper.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Oh a model play you know? Well, I forgot you
were a flying bud.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
That's a good, uncle mort How's about that nineteen dollars?
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Hold on, Leroy, nineteen dollars is a lot of money.
Speaker 4 (03:47):
Oh not for this motor runk. Piggy never poppled it
except as plane midt emergency landing into his pop store window, and.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
He wants nineteen dollars for the motor.
Speaker 4 (03:55):
No, I wants nineteen dollars for a new window. Can
I have a doll uncle more?
Speaker 3 (03:59):
Well, I'm afraid not. That's quite a large sum. And
you know I've got to account to Judge Hooker for
every penny. You children spin.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
Oh, why can't he keep his nose out of our business?
Speaker 3 (04:07):
But that is his business, leroy, sticking his nose into
other people's. And he's got plenty of equipment for the
job too.
Speaker 4 (04:14):
But gee, where's Uncle Moore? I bet you had a
model airplane mortar when you were my age.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
When I was your age, my boy, there were no airplanes.
Everybody thought the right brothers were wrong.
Speaker 4 (04:27):
Well, I bet you had some hobby.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Let me see what did I have? Oh?
Speaker 3 (04:31):
Yes, yes, I had dynamite. Dynamite, Yes, dynamite was the
name of my Settland pony.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
He was my hobby.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
That little horse, I can see him now, bless his
shaggy coat.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
Well, okay, if you could have a big horse, unk,
why can't I have a little mortar.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
Because I earned the money to buy dynamite.
Speaker 4 (04:50):
My boy, you are nineteen bucks. How'd you do it.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Well selling lobsters.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
I lived on the East Coast when I was a lad,
and I got my spending money out of a string
of lobster pot.
Speaker 4 (05:00):
I never new lobsters grew in pots.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
Yes, they don't grow there, Leroy, that's how you catch them.
I can still remember how hard it was in the winter,
getting up before dawn, rowing five miles, sometimes in a
biting gale just to tend my pots, Rowing back to
market with my boat full of lobsters in my hands,
full of blisters, then walking five miles to school. Yes,
it's wonderful to think what you'll do when you're young
(05:23):
and you want a pony.
Speaker 4 (05:24):
Say whatever became of that pony?
Speaker 3 (05:26):
Well, I took Dynamite to school one day and he
bet the teacher we didn't have school for a month.
Speaker 4 (05:34):
She instead of a mortro. Maybe I should get a pony. Eh, No,
I guess not astar aviation. There's more of a future
than that.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
Yes, but Leroy, I said, I wasn't going to give
you the money.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
Oh that's all right, Uncle Moore. How I'm gonna earn it,
just like you did.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
A splendid idea.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
It'll help build your character, like it did mine.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
How are you going to do it?
Speaker 4 (05:52):
All I gotta do is find a job and earn
nineteen dollars? Then would you let me buy piggies bumblebee engine.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
I'll do better than that, my boy, Seeing that you're
so ambitious, I'll advantage the money out of my own pocket.
You will, ye, and you can pay me back as
you earn it.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
Hot gee, Uncle Moore, you've got a heart as big
as you're. As big as you are, Uncle More, and
don't worry about me paying your back. I'll get a
job of no time. And can I have the nineteen
dollars now, Uncle More?
Speaker 2 (06:19):
No?
Speaker 4 (06:20):
Yeah, Piggy's here with me. He can't go home until
he gets the money.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Oh, yes, I see, well here.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
You are ten fifteen ninety.
Speaker 4 (06:29):
Oh thanks, hey, piggy.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
Youth with its trivial problems. I wonder what kind of
a job that boy will get.
Speaker 6 (06:42):
Me? A boy?
Speaker 4 (06:43):
Oh you don't need a boy? Oh, you don't need
a boy?
Speaker 7 (06:58):

Speaker 4 (07:12):
Sure, I'm awfully reliable, mister. I take after my uncle.
He used to get up every morning and roll five
miles into the teeth of a gale, and then roll
five miles back.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
Oh, delivering papers no lobsters. Well, I guess you will do.
What's your name and address, young man?

You can't get up there early. Oh yes I can.
I'll set all the way of clocks in the house.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
Oh, and Leroy, I'm afraid you're a little too young
for that sort of thing.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Maybe next year.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
Oh but you had a much tougher job, won't you tell?
Uncle's a big man. Well he wasn't a man then,
he wasn't even an uncle. You promise me I can
do this, unco Mark. You promised me I could do it,
and I promised the circulation manager. How did it look
if we both broke our promises?
Speaker 5 (09:21):
It looked better than getting up in the middle of
the night.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
Yeah, I agree with you. This puts me in rather
a bad spot. Leroy, what would Judge Hooker say about this?
Speaker 4 (09:30):
And it's building my character? Now I'm gonna go to
bed if I'm gonna get up at four o'clock. But
you haven't had dinner yet. Okay, then let's see what's

Joel smells smells to me too, well, I assure you officers,
is true. I did it all from my little nephew's character.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
We're building it. You know.
Speaker 3 (23:10):
It was raining too hard for him to take his bicycle,
so I drove him around.
Speaker 2 (23:13):

Speaker 3 (23:17):
Well, I can't tell you exactly, but it was right

Speaker 8 (24:05):
Now, mister Gildersleeve, you say your rain wasn't very good?
Speaker 3 (24:08):
Yes, judge rand I hadn't had much sleep, and well
I had the wind and the rain and my hair
and my eyes.
Speaker 8 (24:15):
And so instead of throwing the paper on this man's porch,
you've broke an upstairs window.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
Yes, I was trying to throw a curve your honor.
Speaker 8 (24:24):
Well, mister Gilda's Sleeve, your story sounds reasonable. And if
you just wait in the sergeant's office lee and check it.
Oh gladly, I think you'll be able to go home
in an hour or less.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
I want to thank you, Judge rand for being so
nice to me.
Speaker 10 (24:37):
Here you caught the man who tried to kill me.
Speaker 5 (24:38):
Let's good, look at him.
Speaker 2 (24:39):
Here here one moment.
Speaker 5 (24:40):
This is a police court, not a pool room.
Speaker 10 (24:43):
Who are you, Judge Hooker, Superior Court Department twenty five.
Speaker 8 (24:45):
Well, I'm just as the peace ran the Sunrise Court.
Take off your hat.
Speaker 10 (24:49):
Oh excuse me. I'm a little excited. My life's been
threatening and I want to confront the coward.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
Who. Yeah, hello, Judge Hooker.
Speaker 5 (24:59):
You you know this man? Of course? What's he doing here?
Speaker 4 (25:02):
Well?
Speaker 5 (25:03):
We picked him up near your face. He's the one.
I see it all.
Speaker 10 (25:06):
Now you are trying order, yes, order or on the
court order Now, Guildersleeve, you better make a clean rest
of it. Confess and I might be inclined to be
more lenient.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
Say wait a.
Speaker 10 (25:19):
Second, all right, it's all right, I'm trying this case.
Speaker 8 (25:22):
Now tell me, Guildersleeve, what was.
Speaker 5 (25:24):
In that newspaper you threw into my bedroom.
Speaker 2 (25:26):
I don't know what was in the Judge, I didn't
read it.
Speaker 8 (25:30):
Now, Judge Hooker, I've heard this man story, yelous Leeve.
Speaker 10 (25:36):
You're guilty of breaking and entering my home.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
The Judge, I've ever been in your home. It's through something,
didn't you, Yes?
Speaker 10 (25:40):
And it broke something and in it somewhere, didn't it.
Speaker 4 (25:42):
Yes, And by your own admission, you're guilty.
Speaker 10 (25:44):
And by virtue of the laws of the state, I
here by sentence sort of war.
Speaker 8 (25:47):
Yet one moment, Judge Hooker, this isn't your court. I'm
the judge here, and I'm capable of running things all right.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
All right, I don't want to tell you your business.
Then don't.
Speaker 8 (25:59):
Oh, mister guilder Sleeve, I don't think it's necessary to
question your word any further.
Speaker 5 (26:03):
You broke Judge.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
Hooker's windows, that right, yes, sir.
Speaker 8 (26:06):
And for that, mister Gildersleeve, I'm going to require you
to pay for installing a new window.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
Yes, sir, that all you're.
Speaker 4 (26:11):
Going to do.
Speaker 8 (26:12):
No, not quite better. I've never before seen such disregard
for the dignity of a court room of the rights.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
Of others, as you shown here this morning.
Speaker 8 (26:21):
Judge Hooker, who me yes, and I'm going to cite
you for contempt to court twenty five dollars fine or
thirty days in jail.
Speaker 2 (26:30):
Yeah, this is wonderful.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
The great Guilder Sleeve will be with us again in
a few minutes.
Speaker 2 (26:50):
But right now, I wonder what the park.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
Margarine users who are listening in would say if I
ask them why they like park. Well, it's a pretty
good guest that they like park first because of its
delicious flavor, and a good many would answer too that
they like Parquet because they can use it so many ways. Yes,
Parquet margmin is so good tasting you'll be proud to
serve it at your table. And for the same reason
(27:12):
you like it for seasoning, for baking and for pan
frying too.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
Why more and more.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
These days, good cooks are insisting on a flavor shortening
for baking, a shortening that adds its own tempting taste
to cookies, cakes, and pastries. And a flavor shortening is
just what Parkue Margmin is. You'll find Parquet's flavor makes
it a delicious seasoning for hot vegetables too, and a
grand fat for pan frying that doesn't spatterers stick to
(27:38):
the pans. And whether you use parquet marginin at the
table for seasoning, as a flavor shortening or for pan frying,
don't forget parquet is a nutritious food and a reliable
year round source of vitamin A. Now, when you go
to your food store, don't just ask for margarine, ask
for parquet margarine made by Kraft. Remember Kraft's reputation for
(27:59):
quality backs every pound of park, so be sure to
say park margin.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
It's made by crap.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
You know, Leroy, I don't think this paper rout was
such a good idea after all.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
I wish you'd give it up.
Speaker 4 (28:33):
I want to talk about it.
Speaker 3 (28:34):
If you quit this job, I'll pay for that motor myself.
I'm stalking, rupting, Leroy. I'll even buy you the most
expensive model plane there is if you don't carry papers anymore.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
I'll make up your mind, Leroy, Will you take my offer?
Speaker 4 (28:46):
Why I feel that way about it?
Speaker 2 (28:48):
Okay? Now what were you going to say?
Speaker 4 (28:51):
I was playing to tell you uncle, what I was
fired this morning?
Speaker 2 (28:54):
What good night?
Speaker 1 (29:07):
You have probably heard that September fifteenth to twentieth is
retailers for Defense Week. During this week, your regular food
dealer will be selling defense stands. When shopping, you can
help this patriotic cause by taking your change in defense stands.
