Old School Friend Visits Gildy

The Craft Foods Company presents The Great Gilder's Leaves! It's The Great Gilder's Leaves starring Harold Perry, brought to you by The Craft Foods Company, makers of Farkay Marjaren and a complete line of famous quality food products.

Now let's see what The Great Gilder's Leaves is doing. This afternoon he brought a typewriter home from the office. He set it up on a card table in the living room along with a stack of paper and a box of cigars.

A comfortable chair with pillows in the right places completes the arrangement, and the great man sits him down. Hm, hm, hm. Donkey, writing a letter? No, Marjorie. I'm writing an article for the Summerfield Indicator.

Oh, that's wonderful. Why? Why? Because, my dear, the editor, Mr. Powers, asked me his personal favor, if I would. Gee, it sounds exciting, Donkey. What's it? Uh... It's about water. Oh. Huh? Oh, it's a subject of vital importance to every citizen of Summerfield.

We need some new equipment at the pumping plant and the taxpayers have got to be told about it. Mr. Powers insisted I was the man to do the job. What are they going to print it?

Tomorrow. Gotta have this finished and down at the newspaper office by noon. Well, can I help? I might give you some ideas. Thank you, Marjorie. I'll manage. You run up bed. Everybody else is in.

You need anything call me. Thank you, my dear. Good night. Good night. Where was I? At the beginning. Water and health by, uh, Rob Morton. Be...giller's leave. Ehh, that's a good start. Mmm, hmm, hmm.

Now, how to begin. Once upon a time, no, that won't do. Mmm, hmm. Might not hurt to do an article like this every week. Get to be known around town. Thought Morton P. Giller's leave.
