Transcript

This is Bill Goodwin speaking for Leave A Brothers, makers of Swan, the new white clothing soap. Well, it's Tuesday night again, and that means another pleasant visit with George Burns and Gracie Allen and Paul Whiteman in his music.

And now meet the people who live in the Burns House, George and Gracie. Today we pick up Gracie at the beauty shop. She is chatting with her friend, Tootsie Saguel. Well, you mustn't be impatient, Tootsie. That mud pack will do wonders for your face.

Do you really think so, Gracie? Well, I'm sure as well. I remember I came home one rainy day in Georgia track mud all over the carpet. Relax, rise, break the mud off the carpet look much better.

I'm so encouraged. I wonder how much longer I'll have to leave it on. Well, we'll ask Natalie Beth. Natalie Beth? Oh, we madame. And this dad will would like to know when she didn't take the mud pack off.

Oh, that will not be for Steve, we saw 10 more of me needs madame. Oh, dear, 10 more minutes? That is what I said, madame. Could we do something to hurry it up a little?

Look, I'm telling you it's going to take 10 minutes, Rake, not something we can do about it. Med-a! So, not a maid that we understand and sound. Pa-lee-boom-a-dow! Uh-huh! I'm even she's charming, Rake, he's so continental.

Oh, yes, a real daughter of friends. I must invite a robo for Cam and Bear sometimes. Oh, do you like Cam and Bear? Oh, yes! Of course, I never drink much, but don't forget my nose.

Oh, cute! The French have a quality that no other people have. You know what I always say, only Swakim Ali Pong, talk to me and I wish I knew what it meant. What do you care, it sounds marvelous.
