The orchestra opens the program with night after night. Everything from soup to jello and that, ladies and gentlemen, is the best way I know to describe a really complete meal. For jello ads to any table that grand
And just to taste it is to know the ultimate in good things to eat. Yes, there's nothing more attractive than a bright shimmering mold of delicious jello. And there's certainly nothing more delightful than jello's rare, distinctive flavor as enticing and refreshing as a juicy ripe fruit itself.
So friends, make that next meal really complete by topping it off with a top-notch jello dessert made with any of jello's six delicious flavors. Ask your grocer for several packages of jello tomorrow. And when you buy, look for those big, red letters on the box.
They spell Jell-O and Jell-O spells a tree. That was night after night played by the orchestra. And now, ladies and gentlemen, we bring you our master of ceremonies.
Oh, Don, Don, hold it. Oh, the Jack isn't here yet. Well, where is he? Well, he's out in the hall talking to Orson Welles on the telephone. You mean Orson Welles, the famous actor? Yeah.
What you talking to him about? Well, it's a long story. Jack is still burned up because he didn't win the Academy Award this year. So from now on, he's going in for heavy, dramatic stuff.
And right now he's out there trying to get Orson Wellster coach. You made that a lulu. But gee Mr. Benny's a comedian. What does he want dramatic lessons for? That's what I say. You ought to stick to them big shoes and baggy pants.
