a simple title for Gilder Sleeve's song is going to win up to $6,000 in cash. More details later. Meanwhile remember, when you buy margarine, get the kind that tastes so good. That's P-A-R-K-A-Y. Parquet margarine made by Kraft.

And now, before we hear tonight's Gilder Sleeve story, here's the great man himself singing his song. Strange, a haunting refrain that takes me back to days of yaw. I see a chapel on the hill, Springs first daffodils, reflected in the mill pond from the shore.

I recall in memory, whose names on a tree, are first kiss in that old canoe. And though he drifted far apart, this song lives in my heart. It's a melody of love. Thank you folks.

We're going to save the second chorus till the end of this show. Well, let's see what's going on in the summer field. When the clock strikes five at the water department, the great gilder's lead usually jumps in his car and makes a B-line for home.

But today he's going way around by Elm Street. Wonder what's on his mind? Oh, Elm Street. That's where the pretty nurse, Catherine Milford lives. You bet. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, and there she is, just getting out of the car.
