Family Theater: Toledo Smith

The mutual broadcasting system in cooperation with Family Theater Incorporated presents Toledo Smith starring Dan Durye and Skip Holmayer. Shirley Temple is your hostess. More things are wrought by prayer than this world dreams of. Success has a way of coming to those who keep close to God.

Because the strength of prayer means not only God's help, it is also a personal incentive, a daily encouragement to keep trying and face of difficulties. You know, there's a saying that goes something like this.

Work as though everything depended on you. Pray as though everything depended on God. It's the perfect formula for success, and all of us want to be successful, especially in our homes. We want our homes to be happy, and much of the happiness in any home depends on the mother of a family.

God can and will help us if we ask His help, if we praise Him serly and earnestly and unselfishly, and with His help all burdens are lighter, all difficulties can find a solution. There isn't a mother in America or the world today who won't find new strength and inspiration when her family gathers together for family prayer.

Family prayer means God is there, in your home. Prayer is the greatest lift to success and happiness that any home can have. Shirley Temple will return following tonight's family theater play starring Dandoor Yay and Skip Homier in Toledo Smith.

This is the story of a boy, a kid on the street corner. It might be your corner. It might be your boy. Not long ago he came from an average home. When things happen, sometimes they happen fast.

Holmes break up. That's how it was with Jimmy Smith, with his home. And his big brother, Toledo. He was restless, wanted to travel, see things for himself. He'd been away for six months this last time.
