Make Ready My Grave

Lipton tea and lipton soups present in a sanctum mystery. Good evening friends of the inner sanctum.

This is your host opening the squeaking door for another session of the AGGMS, the Association of Ghouls, Ghosts and Midnight Spirits. Oh may I see your membership card as you enter the radius. Oh, no, no, it's not a printed card.

All you have to do is show me your wrist. If there's any blood pulsing in your arteries, then you don't belong here tonight. Better come back and try some other time after you've passed your mortuary tests.

Well, Mr. Hose, I'm afraid I don't qualify as a member of your AGGMS Association of Ghouls, or whatever it is. But I am a charter member of the ILLB Society. The ILLB? What's that, Mary?

It's a new one on me. Why, those initials stand for I like Lipton's best. To join this club, all you have to do is see that the T in your T-pot is always Lipton's. The club password isn't a word at all.

It's that familiar sound of appreciation, mmm, mmm. For really, Lipton T is delicious, as zestful and spirited can be. And the reason? Very simple. It's Lipton's brisk flavor. Brisk, you know, is the tea expert's own word for the lively full-bodied flavor of Lipton tea. That brisk flavor has made a lot of friends, for more folks buy and enjoy Lipton's than

any other tea in the world. So try a cup of Lipton tea yourself. I know you'll say as so many others do. I like Lipton's best. And now for tonight's inner sanctum mystery. It's an original radio play by Emil Tepelman, called Make Ready My Gray, and stars two radio favorites, John Banks and Richard Whitmer.
