Family Theater: J. Smith and Wife

The Mutual Broadcasting System presents the Family Theater, starring Vin Crosby and Irene Dunn, with Dana Andrews as your host. More things are wrought by prayer than this world dreams are. This is Dana Andrews. A few seconds ago you heard me say, more things are wrought by prayer than this world dreams are.

I bet when you heard that some of you said, what a strange way to begin a radio program. What are those people in Hollywood thinking about anyway? Well, I'll tell you what we're thinking about. We're thinking about our families.

Just like you're thinking about your family. You see, a lot of us in the entertainment business, well, we think the same way you do. We think that a happy family is the greatest gift the guy can have.

And that's why this program is called the Family Theater. And each week we remind you that more things are wrought by prayer than this world dreamed of. Because we want to remind you that prayer, that's right.

Prayer, family prayer, can help keep your family happy and well and together. That's all. Simple, isn't it? Are we not here to preach to you? We're here to put on a radio program and we hope you will enjoy it.

Tonight's story is by a well-known writer Charles Tazwell, a story kind of strange and unusual. A story that might never happen on Earth, or even in Heaven. But then again, well, why don't you listen to it? Listen to the music that Meredith Wilson's orchestra and to the story of Jay Smith and why, starring Irene Dunn and being

Crosby. They'll force P.K.I. to them in parables because seeing they seem not and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand. Awful, pretty isn't it Johnny?
