The makers of Riggly's Spearman Chooing Gum invites you to enjoy life. Life with Luigi, a new comedy show created by Sighard, and starring that celebrated actor Mr. J. Carol Nash with Alan Rie just must go.

You know friends, Riggly's Spearman Chooing Gum is a typically American product that appeals to people of all ages and nationalities in all parts of our country. And the Riggly people feel that life with Luigi is a typically American radio program.

A friendly, enjoyable show that sort of symbolizes the American spirit of tolerance and goodwill. So the makers of refreshing, delicious, wriggly, spearmint gum are glad to bring you life with Luigi each week and have you join them in this pleasant half-hours entertainment.

And now let's read Luigi's letter as he writes about his adventures in America to his mama-basko in it. Mummy. You know, America, when a business is getting better, they say it's a pickin' up. But remember to me, my business is a most of the time my line of down.

Last month I thought maybe it's a die all together. But now it's like I'm a safe picking up. And yesterday I'm going to put a $20 in a bank. Funny thing between a man and a bank is like a tug of a war.

Mondays I'm going to push in on the money and the rest of the week I'm going to pull out. Anyway, I'm going to want to be millionaire. The Conquipitro is always the same, easiest way to become millionaire is to want the less.
