Family Theatre presents Art Link Letter and Kathleen Crowley. I'm Hollywood, the mutual network in cooperation with Family Theatre presents Just Like a Lady, starring Kathleen Crowley. To introduce the drama, here is your host, Art Link Letter.

Thank you, Tony LaFrano. Family Theatre's only purpose is to bring to everyone's attention a practice that must become an important part of our lives. And if we are to win peace for ourselves, peace for our families, and peace for the world, Family Theater urges you to pray, pray together as a family.

And now to our transcribed drama, Just Like a Lady, starring Kathleen Crowley as Peggy. When Peggy Finley received word that she could come to America and live with her grandfather, Peggy was elated. She could now say goodbye to the dingy boarding house where she'd lived so long.

But she could say goodbye to the florist shop where she worked long and weary hours. She was going to America and she was going to be a lady. Sharon, doesn't my grandfather live in a ten-room mansion with ground so did you get lost if you don't keep a watch on your son?

Grandfather's ten-room mansion was an old two-story house on an acre of ground at the edge of town. father lived in one room on the ground floor, the rest of the house was boarded up. Peggy tried to conceal her disappointment, but grandfather wasn't easily fooled.

And you don't like it, Mitch? Oh, it isn't that grandfather. Sure, if it's unhappy you are and you'd like to be going back to Ireland. You mustn't be taken on unhappy grandfather. It's just a little different from what I expected, but it's my own fault for always fencing things up and making believe.
