Craft presents the great Gilder's sleeve Gee company who also bring you Bing Crosby every Thursday night present each week at this time Harold Perry as the great Gilder's sleeve written by Leonard Ellevinson And now let's visit our friend the great Gilder's sleeve who we find covered with oil and grease having just finished fixing birdie sewing machine

Now you're sewing machines all fixed now birdie. You should hear that singer hum. Oh Oh, thank you, Mr. Gil's lead. Is that right to use now? Oh, yes, indeed, Bertie. Go right ahead. No reason now why you can't sew on the little so-and-so.

That's fine. Now I can run up my new summer uniform for the mysterious and bewildered order of the daughter of the clear patriot. Oh, yeah. What kind of a summer uniform? Oh, we just switched from the heavy to the lightweight veils.

Hi, Captain Moore. Hello, Bertie. Hello. Say, young, can't you get oil on your hands and face? You look like you've been playing post office in a grease pit. Yeah. Post office in a grease pit?

Well, I never played post office there. Though I never mind the frantic antics of my youth. I look this way because I just finished fixing birdie's machine. Yes, and I just put my foot on the pedal and away it goes.

Yeah. Couldn't have been a better job done it for real mechanic, done did it? Yes, of course not. I'm an expert. Don't forget, I had hundreds of them at the Gilles-Leaf girdleworks. Anytime we had a breakdown, I'd bounce right out of my office and fix the trouble before the motor had a chance to slow down.
