Transcript
The Johnson Wax program with Fibber McGee and Molly. The makers of Johnson's Wax and Johnson's self-polishing, Glo-coats present Fibber McGee and Molly, written by Don Quinn, with music by the Kingsman and Billy Mills Orchestra.
The show opens with sweet dreaming. To Wilcox, you said something several weeks ago about protective housekeeping. That sounds like an interesting idea to me. I'd like to hear more about it.
Well, that is an interesting idea, and a work-saving idea, too. It comes from the fact that wax not only beautifies for furniture and woodwork but protects them as well. In fact, I don't know which is the more important benefit the extra beauty that wax gives or this extra protection.
Take floors, for example, when they are regularly polished with Johnson's paste or liquid wax, they are protected against scratches, against the wear and tear of traffic. They may never need refinishing. And of course, the wax polish that gives them such rich beauty also makes cleaning a much simpler task.
The same thing holds true when you Johnson whacks your table tops, your woodwork, window seals, radiator covers, and Venetian blinds. The film of whacks that makes all these things more beautiful also protects them against wear, dirt, and smudgy fingerprints.
Many good housekeepers have told me they just couldn't keep house without genuine Johnson's whacks. By some tomorrow. The squire of 79 Westphovista and his neighbor Gildersley are typical red-blooded Americans. They love all kinds of sports and exercise.
For instance, here we meet these two sportsmen in an atmosphere of tense excitement, with masculine violence boiling just beneath the surface, as they match their skill and wits in a battle for supremacy. You're moved, Gilder Slate.
