The General Program styling Jack Benny with Mary Livingston and Phil Harris and his orchestra. The orchestra opens the program with all spare in love and war from the gold diggers of 1937. Most dinners can be divided into three courses, an appetizer to begin with, the main course to follow and finally the desserts.
A perfect dinner is perfect all the way through, but there should always be an extra touch of perfection at the end. never risk serving a dessert that has a chance to be disappointing. Serve Jello. Jello never fails to make friends with everybody at the table. It looks good and it tastes even better with its wonderful true fruit flavor. Jello flavors, each and every one of them,
come from fresh ripe fruit. That's why Jello is so rich and delicious. But remember that Jello is the only gelatin dessert that brings you that grand extra rich fruit flavor. So or when you want Jell-O, be sure you get the real thing.
Look for the big red letters on the box. They spell Jell-O. And now, ladies and gentlemen, we present the man who every week spreads a little joy, a little cheer, a little sunshine, Jack Pollyanna Benny.
Hey Jack, Jack, Mary, Mary, where's Jack? Has he shown up yet? No. He got more applause than if he were here. He ought to stay away every week. I can't understand it. It isn't like him to be late for a broadcast.
