Well darling, how did Santa Claus treat you? I must tell you about one beautiful present I received a new mink coat. My best friend sent it to me. I bought it myself.

I saw it in the window. I liked it. I decided I sent it. Must have it. I rose out of check for $10,000 and took the cloak with me. When I got home, I decided I'd been a little too extravagant.

And so I sent it back. And what an odd coincidence. The coke got back to the store, just as my check came back from the bank. But Christmas is behind us now and we have a show to do.

Last week on our Christmas program, one of our guest stars was Margaret O'Brien of the movie. She did so well. Too well to suit me. That she's with us again this week, I saw her Christmas hangover for me.

I wish I could take an Anniston and make her disappear. But she's been held over by popular demand. Not mine, you understand. The child is too talented, much too talented. After all, a job is a job.
