Transcript
Ladies and gentlemen, this is Gracie Allen. There's a message I'm supposed to give you at the end of the show, but it's so important, I'd like to tell you now. It's about a fellow American in a foxhole overseas.
That man is ready to give his life for us because he believes we're worth fighting for. The least we can do is back the attack and buy him the equipment he needs to bring this war to an end.
How about an extra war bond? This bill good when speaking for lever brothers makers of swan the new white floating soap that's pure as fine cast deals. Well it's Tuesday night again time for another pleasant visit with George Burns and Gracie Allen their guests Adolph Maju and his charming wife Vary Tisdale with Jimmy Cash, Felix Millsness Orchestra and the Swan set.
And now meet the people who live in the Burns House, George and Gracie. Well it's morning in the Burns home but not just an ordinary one. For today, Mr. and Mrs. Burns celebrate their wedding anniversary.
Judge, even though it is our anniversary, you don't have to bother with my present this year. For her instead? No, Judge, please. Gracey, you know when we were married, I bought you a chain with a pearl on it, and I've been adding to it every year.
Yes, but I thought you ought to stop. There's a chain of three feet long now and the pearl hangs too far down. All right, dear, no gift. Oh, George, I don't need presents to make me happy.
Just being your wife is enough. Oh, thanks, sweetheart. Our marriage has been one of the great love affairs. You've been to me what Romeo was to Juliet, what our mom was to Camille. But common was to Miranda.
