With yours truly Toby Reed, Mary Lee Rob, Dick Crenna, Ernie Whitman, Harry Lubin, and the Maxwell House Orchestra, and Bill Goodwin. For America's Thursday Night Comedy Enjoyment, It's George and Gracie. And for America's everyday coffee drinking enjoyment, it's Maxwell House.

The coffee that's bought and enjoyed by more people than any other brand at any price. Yes, Maxwell House, always good to the last drop. As we're looking at the Burns home today, George is out working in the front yard.

Gracie is in the kitchen talking with her teenage neighbor, Emily Vanderlip. I'm sorry to hear you've parl with your boyfriend, Emily. What caused it? I caught Harold looking at another girl. Oh, did your husband do things like that when you were dating him?

Oh, no. George never looked at another woman. When a pretty girl passed him on the street, he even closed one eye. Well, Harold is much weaker. And you two are pretty serious about each other, aren't you?

Oh, yes. Harold asked me to change my name to his. Oh, I wouldn't do that. Harold's no name for a girl. I met, he asked me to marry him, and I wanted to, so when I see him I'll beg him to make up with me.

You will? Yes, I'll crawl to him on my knees and ask him to forgive me. Now wait a minute, Emily. When you and Harold get married, you want it to be a success, don't you?
