The Ghost and Mrs Muir

Lux presents Hollywood. Leaver Brothers Company, the makers of Lux Flakes, bring you the Lux Radio Theatre, starring Charles Boye and Madeline Carroll in The Ghost and Mrs. Muir. Ladies and gentlemen, your producer, Mr. William Kealey.

Greetings from Hollywood, ladies and gentlemen. In the December readers digest, you and they have been interested to read as I was of the current revival of ghosts in England. Unlike most Americans, the English tend not only to believe in ghosts, but to cherish them as an indispensable part of British life.

Tonight we ourselves present a very fascinating spirit in 20th Century Fox's screen success, The Ghost and Mrs. Muir. Our stars in this unusual romantic drama are Charles Boyer and lovely Madeline Carro. Madeline making her first Hollywood appearance since her distinguished record oversees.

While people say that seeing is believing, I'm not quite sure that that applies to ghost. Cruily, you generally can't see them, but you can often trace the results they have on people's lives as in our play tonight.

In the same way, you can't see the qualities in Lux Place, but you can certainly see the results. Both in the way Lux keeps those precious fabrics looking lovely longer, and also the way it brightens the lives of busy housewives everywhere.

On to the first act of the Ghost in Mrs. Muir, starring Charles Boyet as Captain Greg and Madeline Carroll as Lucy Muir. Some 50 years ago in London, a young and handsome widow, Lucy Muir, Left the home of the mother and sister of her departed husband and boarded a train.

With her went her small daughter Anna and a servant named Martha. There, the little one's sleep now, Mum. Maybe now you can tell me where we're going. You've been very patient with me, Martha. I suppose we are running away.
