Transcript

Yes, the petals of God be like you and me. I love you so very much. The adventures of Mr. and Mrs. North, starring Alice Frost and Joseph Curtain, and brought to you by Woodbury Cold Cream, the beauty cream for the skin you love to touch.

And Jerry North, our house guests of Martha Gilroy, a young author who was invited to North to her uncle's police in the state on Long Island,

for the not very subtle purpose of persuading Jerry to publish a novel. Ham and Jerry are in the upstairs sitting room. Hmm. Oh, there's so much. Huh? Oh, the curtain. You know, it's really a waste, Jerry.

I can have five satin evening hours with a material within these things. Yes, I told you so, dear. And these frost things would make a perfect rope girdle. The whole effect would be appreciated. I want to finish this book. I'm on the last stage.

Oh, that's the best of all Jerry. I couldn't stop till I'd finish. Then would you let me? Oh, of course, dear. I didn't mean to interrupt. I think I'd like Grecian. It's so dignified. And if you're a Greek, you have a word for everything.

It was the Greek who had a word for it. Wasn't it Jerry? Mr. McGerry. Pam Honey, please. Oh, Jerry, just answer one question. All right. What is it? Would you love me if I was cold and austere like a Greek maiden?

Pam Honey, I'd love you anyway. Even dressed in those curtains like a Greek maiden. Jerry, you're so naughty. All right, darling. Now, just let me finish this thing. Isn't it an exciting book? I'll say it is.
