Transcript

I'm Alexof, your beauty hope and lustre cream shampoo for soft glamorous, caressible hair bring you our Miss Brooke starring E. Varden. Miss Brooke teaches English at Madison High School. And what with the overcrowded classrooms and rather rigorous schedule has had a pretty busy time during the past semester?
