The Craft Foods Company presents Willard Waterman as the Great Gildest Leave. The Great Gildest Leave is brought to you partially transcribed by the Craft Foods Company. Craft, you know, makes Philadelphia brand Cream Cheese, the cream cheese that's been famous for quality since 1880.
Delicious, creamy white Philadelphia brand is so popular it outsells all other brands of Cream Cheese combined. Enjoy it often. Just be sure you get genuine Philadelphia brand when you buy. Look for the red craft K on the silvery package.
Remember, there's only one Philadelphia brand, Cream Cheese, and it's made by craft and guaranteed fresh. Well, the great Gilda sleeve is facing the same situation every parent faces sooner or later. Leroy is growing up.
Nowadays, it seems the boy's pants are too short and his shoes too small too small almost before the water commissioner gets the bills for them. And that isn't the only way Leroy is branching out.
Instead of living in a wild western world of pistol shots and galloping hoops, he likes to gallop off after dinner and hang around with the boys. See you later, huh? Leroy, where are you going tonight?
Just out of the corner. What's wrong with that? You, well, nothing, my boy. What's going on down there? I'm just meeting Tiger and the guys. You Tiger? Tiger Davis. You're not going to play football under the streetlight.
No, we're just going to stand around. What's wrong with that? What's wrong with that? Well, nothing, I'm sure. But it's a school night. What about your homework? Probably a night. I suppose so. But be back by eight o'clock at the latest.
That's a new expression. You want to re-pick that up? You didn't know I wanted to check up on Leroy. There's no harm in milling what kind of company he keeps. That wouldn't be a good pendant if I didn't.
