Transcript

The Johnson Wax program was Fiverr McGee and Molly. Here's the Johnson Wax, Johnson Carneux, and Johnson's self-policing blow coat present Fiverr McGee and Molly, written by Don Quinn, with music by the Kingsman and Billy Mills Orchestra.

Well, without having to be in the Army, a soldier's uniform gets pretty hard wear. It just can't escape being exposed to moisture, weather, and stains.

Did you know that actually many of those uniforms are waxed to give them added protection? That's right. They're impregnated with a special wax emotion to make them water-retulant and stain resistant, to keep them clean longer and easier to launder.

A special wax finish for this purpose called Drax, D-R-A-X, is made by the makers of Johnson's wax. It's used by many textile mills and by many army laundries too. The water-retulant-save garment can be renewed and maintained by the laundry or dry cleaner at very small cost.

After the war you'll be able to have your outdoor clothes, your children's play suits, and things like curtains and drapes. Drax treated, and you will find it a great convenience. In the meantime, finishing meals and others interested may learn more about Johnson's Drax by writing to S.C. Johnson and Son at Racine, Wisconsin and Brantford, Ontario.

There used to be two places where a man could go to get away from women. One was the barber shop, the other was the bowling alley.

The barber shop was lost to us years ago. And now the bowling alley is going to, as we meet, Fiverr McGhee and Molly. How far from sweet of you to teach me how to ball McGee?

They say the game is very helpful. Oh, it is the day it is. They say people who ball never have appendicitis. Well, that's pretty silly. If you've got appendicitis, you can't ball anyway. That ain't the idea.
