From Chicago, the craft foods company presents the Great Gilderslee. Uh... It's the Great Gilderslee starring Harold Perry, brought to you by the craft foods company, makers of Parquet-Majoron and a complete line of famous quality food products.
Well, you ought to be in Summerfield. The drizzle that started Friday afternoon and threatened to spoil a weekend and turned suddenly to snow last night, great feathery flakes that floated down and spread a white blanket of silence over the whole town.
The kids were up early this morning, pelting each other and leaping and rolling and wallowing in it. When Gildesly had rubbed the sleep from his eyes and looked out upon it, one thing came instantly to his mind.
And apparently it had come to others. Hello. Hello, Chief. Gildesly. Say, if you looked out your winter, Chief, you see what's out there? Well, sure, of course. We'll never get a better snow fort than this.
He did, eh? Good for Floyd. Well, tell him to line up his cousin, Slay. Tell him to pile some nice, clean straw in it. Oh, and tell him, what's that? Yeah. Don't you worry about the girl's chief.
You know who's in charge of the committee on arrangements? Yours truly. Hahaha. Can Wilweeba come out and pray? Rock, come on. Yeah. You look like a snowman. Yeah, it's still coming down. Oh, it's so beautiful, isn't it?
Yeah, beautiful. Say it. Look there. The delicate tracery of those bare branches. Yeah, branches say it. And the fresh fall and snow, so blue in the shadows. And where the sun catches it, the way it shimmers.
Yeah, shimmers. Say ee. Overcoming side. Take your coat off. No, I better not. It's all over snow. And besides, I've got a lot of other calls to make. We'll step into the hall anyway. It's cold out here.
