Transcript

The Craft Foods Company presents Willard Waterman as the Great Gilder's Leave. The Great Gilder's Leave is brought to you partially transcribed by the Craft Foods Company. There's something truly new and truly wonderful about Craft's new Parquet margarine.

New Parquet now spreads smoothly even when ice cold. Join with your neighbors in making this great discovery. The minute you take new Parquet from your refrigerator, it's ready to spread smoothly on the freshest bread. No tearing, no trouble. Crafts, new parquet margarine comes to you in a new ice blue package. Try a pound. You'll love the way it tastes. You'll love the way

it spreads. Well, big fat snowflakes have been falling on summer field all night. And this morning, the great gilder sleeve is speculating about the number of frozen water pipes. But Leroy, like the rest of the youngsters, can hardly wait to get out and start building and forts and snowmen.

Hey, if the snow's letting up, oh boy, the sun's breaking through. Yeah, look at the snow and the roofs and the trees. Regular fairy land, my boy. Yeah, keen. Look, it can be rough on the water department.

Wait until some customer turns on his faucet and gets ice cubes. Boy, I'm gonna get out in this. See you later, honk. Be sure you dress for it, Leroy. Put on your over chews. Of course.

Why do you object to wearing them? Well, one reason is I can't find them. Lira, have you lost your new overshoes? No, I haven't lost them. I just aren't where I left them. Where did you leave them?

Somewhere around the house. Or out in the garage. Or at school? Don't ask me. But I want to let you go out and get your feet wet. You are? That snow is six inches deep.
