Transcript

From Hollywood, California, the Lux Radio Theatre presents Barbara Stanwick in So Big, with Preston Foster, Fay Ray and Otto Kruger. Lux presents Hollywood. Tonight we journey through a lifetime, the life of a brave and simple woman.

Her loves, her struggles, her ultimate victory, told under the title So Big. You'll hear Barbara Stanwick, Preston Foster, Fay Ray and Otto Kruger. Our special guest is Mrs. Sarah Delano Roosevelt, the mother of our president.

The music of the Lux Radio Theatre is conducted by Lewis Silver's. But first, just a word about the splendid product behind this theatre. Our lovely screen stars have found that their complexion soap, lux toilet soap, makes a wonderful beauty bath too.

Just a few minutes in a warm tub in a generous lathering with lux toilet soap leaves you refreshed and sure of daintiness. Fragrant white lux toilet soap has active lather, you know, that removes thoroughly every trace of dust, dirt, and perspiration.

Try it for your daily beauty bath. You'll love the delicate clinging fragrance it leaves on the skin. And now, the producer of the Lux Radio Theatre. Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Cecil B. DeMille. Greetings from Hollywood, ladies and gentlemen.
