Hama Leifsoff, your beauty hope and bluster cream shampoo for soft glamorous caressible hair bring you our Miss Brooks starring E. Barton. Our Miss Brooks manages to keep pretty busy teaching English at Madison High School. But in spite of her preoccupation with her own subject, she's managed to find quite a bit of time lately to pursue the study of biology. One thing is certain, I've
spent more time pursuing the study of biology than the biology teacher has spent pursuing me. It isn't that Mr. Boynton doesn't believe in romance. After all, it would weren't for him, Alice and Vincent, Mabel and Ted and Bernice and Henry would never have gotten together. And everybody knows they're six of the happiest rabbits in town.
Anyway, I was pretty surprised last week when my landlady, Mrs. Davis, told me that Mr. Boynton had borrowed my copy of Ross and Cyrano de Bergerac from our library. We were discussing it last Thursday morning while Mrs. Davis was getting breakfast ready.
I can't understand it Connie. Cyrano is a very romantic play. Does Mr. Bolton read that kind of little chute? I doubt it very much. Although he surprised me once before this when I saw a book on his desk called Come Fly With Me.
That sounds like a very racy novel. what I thought till I saw the rest of the title. That read the life and times of an African t-t-t-teep-ci-plies. Well, maybe now that the weather is getting nicer, you'll warm up a dip. Remember the old saying, in the spring, a young man's fancy.
Not Mr. Boynton, he's no fancier in the spring than he is in the winter. Oh, that must be Walter Denham. I asked him to pick me up this morning. Oh, come in, Walter. Thanks, Miss Brooks.
