Transcript

The Craft Foods Company presents Willard Waterman as the Great Gilder's Leaf. The Great Gilder's Leaf is brought to you each week by the Craft Foods Company. Would you like to win a glamorous new Ford Victoria or one of eleven hundred fifty other prizes?

Then enter Parquet Margarine's eighty three thousand five hundred dollar name the twins contest. Have paper and pencil ready full details in our next announcement. Yes, tonight's program and this great contest are brought to you by the makers of Parquet Marjorand, the margarine that tastes so good because it's always fresh.

Try a good tasting, fresh tasting Parquet tomorrow. Yet P-A-R-K-A-Y, Parquet Marjorand made by Kraft. Now, the great Gildesleeve. Well, our water commissioner is a man who takes his honors and responsibilities seriously. His favorite honor is being president of the Jolly Boys Club, and he doesn't like it one bit when one of the members threatens not to show up at a meeting.

That's why he's making an early morning call on Floyd the Barber. Hello Floyd. Oh, hi, Commissioner. How the new twins at your house? You got names from yet? No, not yet, Floyd. But all our friends are working on it.

That's good. I'll pry up in the chair and I'll give you the works. Oh, I didn't come in to have anything done, Floyd. Okay, but since you're the water commissioner, I thought you'd want the works.

No, not this time. I thought you might be stepping out tonight. I don't make dates on nights we have Jolly Boys meetings. Oh, so that's why you dropped in. Yes, I hear you aren't coming tonight.

Nope, can't make it, Commissioner. Gotta make out my income tax. Your income tax? On March 14th? That doesn't leave you much time. Well, I ain't got much income. You can do that today between customers.
