Are you reducing tooth decay with Amadent, Ammoniated Toothpaste? Well, answer them, George. Of course, Gracy. I use Amadent twice a day. You can smile when you say that. Yes, it's the Amadent show, transcribed in Hollywood and starring George Burns and Gracie Allen.
Yours truly Bill Goodwin, V. Benadet Derrin, Howard McNier, how much Harry Lubin in the Amadent Orchestra. For healthy laughter, it's George and Gracie. And for healthier teeth, for fewer cavities, it's amadent toothpaste. Since her return from Europe last week, Gracie has been the center of attraction among her neighbors.
We find her now telling Blanche Morton all about Paris. Oh, Blanche, I adore Paris. It's so gay and romantic. Well, Gracie, it's sure good to see you. Or as the French would say, you sweet en chante.
Is that what that means? Good to see you. Uh-huh. Gee, I slapped 12 Frenchmen to say that to me. Tell me about those Frenchmen, Gracie. Are they really...you know? Oh, they sure are French. Oh, yes.
It's like being in a country full of go-good ones. They're romantic, huh? Are they? If your husband isn't with you every minute, well. Oh, the George was fit to be tied. Yeah, I wish I'd thought of it.
Gracie, do those Frenchmen really eat snails? No, I don't think so, Blanche. They couldn't eat snails and work that fast. Why in France even, Nene, they're 60s are romantic. Sexogenarians? Well, I wouldn't go that far, but they're romantic.
Oh, hey, Blanche. I wish our husband had some French blood. French blood. Yeah, or any other kind. You know, George used to be very romantic when we were first married. Ha, that husband for you. During the honeymoon, they're so galang, so dashing.
