James E. L. L. Paul! The Jell-O program, starring Jack Benny with Mary Livingston, Bill Harris, Kenny Baker and Don Wilson. The orchestra opens the program with your eyes are bigger than your heart. This is the time of year when we're checking over Christmas lists and every store window is a new temptation. Talked books get lighter and lighter and we're all of us watching a
budget. Well, here's one good way to help your budget and that's to serve plenty of Jell-O, or at so inexpensive. Jell-O costs only a few cents a package, and one package serves the average family generously with a really delicious treat. And everybody loves Jell-O.
It's America's favorite gelatin dessert. Those six delicious flavors are filled with extra-rich fruit goodness, and those six gay colors fit right in with this cheerful holiday season. Strawberry, raspberry, cherry, orange, lemon, and lime. All six are bright with festive cheer, as Jolly is Christmas Eve.
So for inexpensive economical desserts, look for those big red letters on the box. They spell Jell-O and Jell-O spells a treat. Ladies and gentlemen, Jack Benny and his gang, who are en route from New York to Hollywood, have reached Chicago.
So we picked them up at the station where they are about to board the train going west. Take it away! Hey Rochester, do you see the rest of the gang? No boys, I'll get rid of the first ones here.
Dog gon' it, you know what Rochester? I forgot to tip the taxi driver. Why didn't you remind me? I thought it was pre-meditated. Well, it wasn't. All aboard! Rain leaving on track by for Memphis, New Orleans, Jackson, Fail, Palm Beach, Miami, and Montreal.
