George To Entertain Troops

Here is an important message from your government. Although victory in Europe has been accomplished, the demands on our food supply have not been lessened. You can help relieve the food shortage by preserving your own fruits and vegetables.

Home canning is a wartime necessity. Knowing the proper techniques and methods in home canning is important, and you can get expert advice by simply writing the Department of Agriculture, Washington, 25, D.C. Remember, there must be no let-down this year.

With the music of Felix Mills, the Swan Tap and yours truly Harry Varnsells. Well, next week, George and Gracie are leaving for a tour of camps and hospitals to entertain our service men. So we find them now making preparations.

Now, don't worry about the house while we go into it. That's taking care of everything. The milk, the paper, the bacon man. Good. Nothing will be wasted. Good. Now here's my plan. First, the paper boy comes and leaves the paper.

Yeah. And then the milk man comes, leaves the paper and leaves the milk. Then the postman comes, leaves the milk and leaves the mail. Yes, the bacon man comes, leaves the mail and leaves the bread.

Now, the bread sits on the porch all day and the sun toasts. Next morning, the paper boy leaves the paper. Then the milk man comes. Read the paper and the pieces of milk. I know how it goes from there.

That, I know. Now, let's take one thing at a time. You expect the sun to toast the bread? Well, George, this is California. Better leave the toast, do I, huh? Connect it. Listen, Gracie, I've got a little suggestion.
