Dear Wife

Lux presents Hollywood. Leave a brother's company, the makers of Lux's toilet soap, bring you the Lux Radio Theatre. Starring William Holden, John Caulfield, Edward Arnold and Mona Freeman in Dear Wife. Ladies and gentlemen, your producer, Mr. William Keeling.

Greetings from Hollywood, ladies and gentlemen. You know, it's been my experience that is always difficult to follow a successful story with a successful sequel. But just to prove it can be done, we are bringing you as our play tonight, dear wife.

I'm sure you all remember the young lieutenant who wrote letters to Dear Ruth, which were so beautifully and romantically answered. That is, he thought he was writing to Ruth. And when he arrived home from overseas, it seemed it was dear little sister Miriam.

Well, it all ended happily, and as the curtain descended, Ruth was about to become dear wife. As our stars of this sparkling Paramount picture, we have William Holden, Joan Callfield, Edward Arnold, and Mona Freeman, all recreating their original roles as one of your favorite families.

And just as marriage is the perfect sequel to romance, so does the more beautiful complexion follow daily Lux toilets of care. You know wives everywhere know they can depend on this complexion care to be Lux lovely.

The curtain rises on dear wives, starting William Holden as Bill, Joan Caulfield as Ruth, Edward Arnold as Judge Wilkins and Mona Freeman as Merion. It's early morning in the residence of Judge Wilkins in a present suburb of New York.

Mrs. Wilkins and her eldest daughter are the first ones down for breakfast. Oh, hello mother. Where's Dad? Still asleep dear, he got in very late. Well, what happened at the political rally? Well, I wasn't up when he came home in the morning paper, doesn't say.
