Family Theater: The Roll Call of the Reef

Family Theater presents Mary Livingston and Arthur Shields. From Hollywood, the mutual network in cooperation with Family Theater presents the roll call of the reef, starring Arthur Shields. And now here is your hostess, Mary Livingston.

Family Theater's only purpose is to bring to everyone's attention a practice that must become an important part of our lives. 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. Now to our transcribed drama, the role call of the reef, starring Arthur Shields as the narrator. My grandfather could tell marvellous lies. Like me, he was a quarry man with a wide streak of wit and imagination, to no more schooling than myself.

And it was from this very cottage with a gale blowing like it is tonight that he'd walk across Gunnar's Meadow through the rain down to Manickel Reef when it was storming all over the high tide.

And they are on the four-shored scuba pits of Jetsman wreckage, whipped in from lost ships. You can see for yourself the walls are hung with it. Here's the sailor's cat and the gold eppie that turned off an officer's coat.

And then here this muskert with the ratted stock. And there was a story he'd tell about each. Oh, a terrible lie of a story. I see you're looking at the drum on trumpet. No, that's an odd one.

You see, the two are bound together by this padlock. And the body of it is these six brass rings with a letter cut in them. You've got to know the right word, open the lock, and I don't.
