The Grape Nuts Flakes program coming to you from Bangor, Maine, where we are broadcasting for Pilots and Brown crew of Doll Field and starring Jack Benny with Mary Livingston's Rochester, yours truly, Don Wilson and our guest conductor, Abe Lyman.
Have you ever noticed the way a man greets his wife before breakfast? He says, uh, hello wife. Sounds pretty glum, doesn't he? But just sit that same grumpy guy down to a big, tempting, bold, bowl of delicious, toasty brown grape nuts flakes.
Just let him sample at wide awake moldy rich goodness and he'll manage time out to say, low darling, gee, but these grape nuts flakes takes well. Yes ma'am, that's the kind of morning magic you can work any day in the week with those delicious, sweetest and nut grape nuts flakes thanks to the super-swell flavor
that's so entirely different from any other flakes cereal because it's a rich two-grain blend of sunripe and wheat and malted barley. So get set for swell tasting breakfast and get set for plenty of praise by asking your grocer for delicious toasty brown grape nuts flakes in the 12 ounce economy sized package.
And my buddy played by the orchestra. Now ladies and gentlemen, from the Bangor Opera House in Bangor, Maine, we bring you a comedian you'll get a big bang out of. Jack Benny. Thank you, thank you.
Well, again, this is Jack Benny talking. And Don, I could see that introduction coming a mile away. That's a pretty corny build up to get me in front of all these boys from Dow Field.
That's right, Jack. You'll offer houses back to the rafters. Imagine all these soldiers turning out to see us on a cold night like this. Oh, I don't think it's a very cold up here. Why, I am as warm as toast myself.
