Oh, it's Armis Brooks, sorry, Eve Arden. Oh, when a woman like Armis Brooks, who teaches English at Madison High School, goes with a man like Philip Blanton for six years, certain changes are bound to occur.
Changes which Miss Brooks can't help but notice. Yes, after six years, Mr. Boynton is wearing a different suit. But last week, for the first time, some radical changes did appear to be in evidence. evidence. All else having failed, I had decided to take my landlady's advice and try to build up Mr. Boynton's ego. So about two weeks ago I convinced Mr. Boynton that he'd look
much more distinguished if he'd grow a mustache. Last Thursday at breakfast I discussed the early results with Mrs. Davis. I knew that altering his appearance would make a difference in Mr. Boynton. What's the first change of notice, Connie? It's much quieter when he drinks his soup.
How does much more to it than that? I saw his mustache when he called for you Sunday night. And it certainly tickled me. I wish it would tickle me. It is rather cute though, isn't it?
Actually Sunday night was the last time I saw him, so it's too early to tell about any changes yet. Although I've been doing everything in my power to build up his ego. Just what have you done, dear?
Well, I asked three of Madison's most attractive teachers, Miss Adams, Miss Higgins, and Miss Preston, to compliment him on his new look. Well, that should have produced results. It did. He went out with Miss Adams Monday night, Miss Higgins Tuesday, and Miss Preston Wednesday.
Well, with his new appearance, you've got to expect personality changes in Mr. Boynton. I'm sure he'll be much more positive toward you from now on. Well, he's positive, all right. He positively hasn't asked me to go with him to the party, Mr. Confund's giving tonight.
