Transcript

The Craft Foods Company presents The Great Gilder Slaves. It's The Great Gilder Slaves, starring Harold Perry, brought to you by The Craft Foods Company, makers of Clark A. margarine, and a complete line of famous quality food products.

Well, come on in. Oh, hello, Judge. I'll bring you here so early in the morning. It isn't particularly early for most people. and I have a little business to discuss with you. Well, sit down and hear Leela, you take the sofa.

Oh, thank you. Now, what's this all about? Well, I brought Leela here this morning, Brock Martin, to ask your help in hammering a little sense into her. What? You couldn't have made a worse beginning, Horace.

What is it he wants you to be sensible about, Leela? Money. You know that money I got from that old stock of overgodge? Doesn't amount to as much as I'd hoped of called, but then I didn't think it would.

Be that as it may, Leela, the sum is substantial enough to be invested, rather than frittered away on Nick Nax and Finally. Finally, Trachmont and I've hardly got a stitch of clothes, I'm not ashamed to be seen in.

Oh, now Leela, I was just going to say I think that's a very neat little outfit you're wearing, man. Do you really like it, Trachmont? I really do. Cute blouse. You should see the dinner dress up all. It has bows all down the front.

Say, I'd like to see that. I hesitate to interrupt this touching exchange, but I'm a busy man. I can only devote a certain amount of time to this discussion. Now, the fact is that if Lila will invest this windfall in annuities, it can be a great comfort to her later on.
