[0:00] Speaker 1: The Johnson Wax Program with Fibber, McGee and Molly.
[0:10] Speaker 2: The makers of.
[0:11] Speaker 1: Johnson's Wax and Johnson's self polishing Blowcoach present Fiber, McGhee
[0:15] Speaker 1: and Molly, written by Don Quinn with songs by the
[0:17] Speaker 1: King's Men and music by Billy Mills Orchestra Shops with
[0:21] Speaker 1: blow Gabriel Blows. Today is Pan American Day, set aside
[0:59] Speaker 1: to mark the friendly relationship and active cooperation of the
[1:02] Speaker 1: twenty one nations of North and South America. We salute
[1:05] Speaker 1: those allies and friends. More power to them. By the way,
[1:08] Speaker 1: did you know that one of the chief ingredients of
[1:11] Speaker 1: Johnson's Wax and Johnson's blowcoat comes from South America from Brazil. Yes,
[1:15] Speaker 1: one of the principal exports from Brazil to this country
[1:18] Speaker 1: is carnaba wax, obtained from the Carnaba palm tree.
[1:22] Speaker 2: In Johnson's products.
[1:23] Speaker 1: This is skillfully blended with other ingredients to produce a
[1:26] Speaker 1: polish that gives long wearing protection and greater beauty to
[1:30] Speaker 1: your floors, furniture, and linoleum.
[1:32] Speaker 2: So every time you polish these.
[1:34] Speaker 1: With Johnson's Wax products, do not only protect them and
[1:37] Speaker 1: save yourself work, but you also contribute to the mutually
[1:40] Speaker 1: beneficial trade between this country and Brazil. By an odd coincidence,
[2:09] Speaker 1: it's April and westful Vista, as it is in so
[2:11] Speaker 1: many other places, and this is the day of the
[2:14] Speaker 1: Spring festival.
[2:15] Speaker 2: In parade, there's.
[2:16] Speaker 1: A tradition that all parades must be led by a
[2:19] Speaker 1: man on a white horse, and mister McGee is the
[2:21] Speaker 1: only man in town who owns a white horse.
[2:24] Speaker 2: Guess who's going to be Grand Marshall.
[2:27] Speaker 1: And here at the costumers waiting to get their parade outfits,
[2:30] Speaker 1: we find Fibber McGhee and Molly.
[2:38] Speaker 3: Well, so you've definitely decided on worrying a Western costume.
[2:41] Speaker 3: McGee absolutely looks well too, Me and a somber arro
[2:45] Speaker 3: and chaps. And in this silver mounted western saddle. I
[2:47] Speaker 3: got a silver mounted bridle for Lilian too. Well, that
[2:51] Speaker 3: won't fool anybody, McGee. Lilian is too fat to look
[2:54] Speaker 3: like a cow pony. She's more cow than pony.
[2:59] Speaker 4: Don't worry look Western all right? Or she's even got
[3:01] Speaker 4: a brand on her left hip. Since when since last
[3:05] Speaker 4: night I done it with indelible ink.
[3:09] Speaker 5: Well, what's your brand? Partner?
[3:14] Speaker 4: C bar F C bar FA in honor of uncle
[3:17] Speaker 4: Dennis C. Bar f confirmed bar fly and when I
[3:24] Speaker 4: ride the excuse me? Can I help you in any way?
[3:26] Speaker 3: Yes, you can use your influence if any, and cancel
[3:29] Speaker 3: this whole parade.
[3:31] Speaker 4: She's kidding, budd we're leading the festival Praye today and
[3:34] Speaker 4: we want to rent some costumes.
[3:35] Speaker 6: I see, will you be riding on one of the floats.
[3:38] Speaker 3: I will McGee will be floating on one of the rides.
[3:42] Speaker 4: He's still kidding. I'm riding my white horse.
[3:44] Speaker 6: But in that case a suit of armor might be
[3:47] Speaker 6: rather affected, say it might have that?
[3:49] Speaker 4: How would I be as a night? Molly?
[3:50] Speaker 3: Well, I think the combination of a night and a
[3:52] Speaker 3: mare would be too appropriate. Hearing you better go western?
[3:55] Speaker 4: Okay, you got any Western outfits?
[3:57] Speaker 6: But oh indeed we have, sir, I'll let me see.
[3:59] Speaker 6: You'll need CAFs and boots, bears, checkered shirt, scarf and
[4:03] Speaker 6: a ten gallon hat? What hat size, sir?
[4:05] Speaker 4: Seven?
[4:06] Speaker 6: Oh I'm afraid we haven't got a size seven and
[4:08] Speaker 6: a ten gallon hat?
[4:09] Speaker 3: Well, they give him one five gallon half, one two
[4:12] Speaker 3: gallon half.
[4:12] Speaker 5: That's seven.
[4:15] Speaker 6: It's very amusing, madam. However, I can get one from
[4:19] Speaker 6: our east side branch.
[4:20] Speaker 7: I think swell, send that western outfit off the fiermgee
[4:23] Speaker 7: seventy nine whistle vista.
[4:24] Speaker 4: Will you bud right away?
[4:25] Speaker 6: Yes, sir? And now what kind of a costume for
[4:28] Speaker 6: the lady?
[4:28] Speaker 3: Oh, so you two lads have finally got around to me. Well,
[4:32] Speaker 3: now isn't that sweet?
[4:34] Speaker 6: How about a beautiful Juliet costume madam gold spangles, gold slippers,
[4:38] Speaker 6: little Juliet cap with sequins. Quite charming.
[4:41] Speaker 4: Oh sounds good to me, Molly. I love dresses with
[4:44] Speaker 4: sequences down the back.
[4:46] Speaker 5: Oh I don't know, Dearie.
[4:47] Speaker 3: I don't think I'm quite a Juliet type. The only
[4:50] Speaker 3: balcony scene I ever made was when I dropped my
[4:52] Speaker 3: purse on a man's head at the Beju Theater.
[4:55] Speaker 6: How about a little bo peep costume Madam cotton pinafore.
[4:59] Speaker 2: Picture had ballet slippers and a crook?
[5:02] Speaker 3: What was that, budd, Nothing personal, Dartie. A crook is
[5:06] Speaker 3: one of those long button hooks the shepherds carry.
[5:10] Speaker 5: Didn't you ever heard sheep?
[5:11] Speaker 4: Why sure, I've heard sheep. They go back. What's that
[5:15] Speaker 4: got to do with him calling me name?
[5:16] Speaker 2: If he?
[5:17] Speaker 6: Crook is merely the term for a sheep heard of stuff, sir,
[5:20] Speaker 6: you see and hurting shit?
[5:21] Speaker 5: She never mind, I'll explain it to him later.
[5:23] Speaker 3: Just send the bollpeep costume off.
[5:24] Speaker 5: With his thing.
[5:25] Speaker 6: It certainly, madam, I'll make up the costumes immediately.
[5:27] Speaker 4: Well, I guess that's all. Molly boy, this is going
[5:29] Speaker 4: to be fun. I can hardly wait till. Oh look
[5:33] Speaker 4: who's just come in Uppington?
[5:35] Speaker 5: Is she in this paray too?
[5:36] Speaker 4: I wouldn't be surprised. She's probably riding on a float
[5:39] Speaker 4: for the loyal order of Moose.
[5:41] Speaker 5: How could she?
[5:42] Speaker 7: She doesn't belong to No, I ain't sure of her loyalty,
[5:44] Speaker 7: but she's sure built on the order of a moose.
[5:48] Speaker 4: In fact, that old moose. Oh hippy, how.
[5:53] Speaker 6: Do you do? My dear?
[5:53] Speaker 3: Hello, Abigail, don't tell me you're riding in this paray too.
[5:57] Speaker 8: Indeed, I have idea.
[5:59] Speaker 3: The women's has a float ended and I am writing
[6:02] Speaker 3: on it.
[6:02] Speaker 5: As Paul Rivera.
[6:04] Speaker 4: Whoa Paul looking in?
[6:06] Speaker 5: Oh boy, isn't that wonderful?
[6:09] Speaker 3: I should wear shoes with silver bottles, white stockings, rubber
[6:12] Speaker 3: breeches and a three colored hat.
[6:15] Speaker 4: That's funny.
[6:16] Speaker 7: When I was a kid, I wore just the opposite
[6:18] Speaker 7: a ruffled hat and three cornered wretches.
[6:27] Speaker 3: You little rosk on, you the wittiest things.
[6:32] Speaker 5: But tell me what costumes are you wearing? Well?
[6:35] Speaker 3: McGhee is wearing cowboys outfit, and I'm going.
[6:37] Speaker 5: As little bo peep.
[6:38] Speaker 3: We've got a sulky all decorated with paper flowers and Lilian.
[6:42] Speaker 3: We'll pull the selki with McGee on her back. How
[6:45] Speaker 3: purty the light bult, I imagine mister McGee will look
[6:49] Speaker 3: very dashing as a cos striker.
[6:53] Speaker 4: Puncher up me cow puncher. Oh I'm ragging that outfit.
[6:58] Speaker 5: Oh my gosh, what's the matter, deary?
[6:59] Speaker 4: Are you? Oh? Good?

[7:28] Speaker 5: you want to know?
[7:28] Speaker 4: Me?
[7:28] Speaker 5: Gee?
[7:29] Speaker 4: Well, I was just checking up them cowboy chaps. I'm
[7:34] Speaker 4: going to wear that. They're awful open in places.
[7:40] Speaker 7: I didn't know if cowboys wore pants on the room
[7:42] Speaker 7: or not, but they do.
[7:46] Speaker 4: Well, come on, Molly, I'll see you later.
[7:48] Speaker 7: Paul, Hey, Molly, did you get the sofia all decora?
[9:29] Speaker 2: Yes?
[9:30] Speaker 5: I did, McGhee.
[9:30] Speaker 3: And if I never see another paper, Petunia, it'll be
[9:33] Speaker 3: too soon.
[9:34] Speaker 5: Did you carry Lillian?
[9:35] Speaker 4: Yes? I did, And she's as nervous as a cat ah.
[9:38] Speaker 4: But I like a horse with spirit. I hope she
[9:39] Speaker 4: acts kind of skittish in the parade.
[9:41] Speaker 5: Well, I don't remember.
[9:42] Speaker 3: I'll be right behind you in that overside his go card,
[9:46] Speaker 3: and don't go showing off your horsemanship.
[9:48] Speaker 4: Don't worry. I know how to ride someday.
[9:50] Speaker 3: You know what I'm gonna do, certainly, But what's a
[9:52] Speaker 3: little fall off a horse. Someday I'm gonna teach Lilian
[9:56] Speaker 3: to kneel down when I'm mountain this mountain. I knew
[9:58] Speaker 3: a guy that taught his horse that one just touched
[10:01] Speaker 3: him on the fore leg with his riding crop and
[10:02] Speaker 3: the horse had kneel down.
[10:04] Speaker 5: Our poor old Hank, wife, poor old Hank.
[10:06] Speaker 4: He was riding through a creek, one day and a
[10:08] Speaker 4: floating stick hit his horse on the knee. A horse
[10:12] Speaker 4: knelt down, and poor old Hank got drownded. I haven't
[10:15] Speaker 4: seen him since.
[10:19] Speaker 7: Hey, ain't it about time Mark costumes got here? It's
[10:22] Speaker 7: almost that must be them. Now, come in, any.

[11:05] Speaker 10: Kids, how's afraid Johnny was really going out west?
[11:09] Speaker 4: Heard the dangerous life out there? What's dangerous about it?
[11:12] Speaker 10: Well, my papa's out there near Dallas and he's been
[11:15] Speaker 10: laid up now for three weeks with blisters all.
[11:18] Speaker 11: Over the palms of his hands.
[11:21] Speaker 5: Well, why don't earth happened to him?
[11:22] Speaker 10: We're trying a dude ranch out there, daughter, And in
[11:24] Speaker 10: the evening by the campfire, he had to sing deep
[11:27] Speaker 10: in the heart of Texas so often he clapped his
[11:29] Speaker 10: hands into a pope.
[11:37] Speaker 4: If he was such a success, they should have held
[11:39] Speaker 4: him over the campfire.
[11:45] Speaker 1: That's pretty good, Johnny, But that ain't the way.
[11:48] Speaker 8: I heard it.
[11:50] Speaker 10: Way I heard it one full spaced t'other fire.

[13:00] Speaker 7: they sent me women's boots.
[13:01] Speaker 4: These have got high heels.
[13:02] Speaker 3: Go on, all cowboys wear high heeled boots.
[13:06] Speaker 5: Foolish they do.
[13:07] Speaker 4: I wonder if they paint their toenails too, Maybe if.
[13:10] Speaker 1: I slip them over ond a hooks say, is the
[13:13] Speaker 1: truth that you're leading the parade this Afternoon's.
[13:15] Speaker 3: Right, mister Wilcox McGee is going to ride Lilian and
[13:17] Speaker 3: I'll ride in the Sakie behind them.
[13:18] Speaker 7: I'm wearing a cowboy out that harlow. I'll wave my
[13:21] Speaker 7: lorn yet at you as I ride by. You're what
[13:24] Speaker 7: my lorn yet? You know the rope that US cowboys use.
[13:27] Speaker 3: The lassocalfy, that's Hilariot McGee. A lorne yet is a
[13:34] Speaker 3: pair of glasses on a stick that society ladies look
[13:36] Speaker 3: through when they don't want to recognize somebody they know.
[13:40] Speaker 2: Well, besides, Pepper, you won't wave with me. I'm in
[13:42] Speaker 2: the parade too.
[13:43] Speaker 4: You are you playing in the Drummond bugle corpse.
[13:47] Speaker 2: No, the Johnson's wax people have entered a float in
[13:50] Speaker 2: the parye.
[13:50] Speaker 5: Really, mister Wilcox, what kind of float is it?
[13:52] Speaker 2: It's allegorical.
[13:54] Speaker 4: Hey, that's a marvelous idea hollow. Where'd you get the alligators?
[14:00] Speaker 5: Say?
[14:00] Speaker 3: McGee, you're awfully dense today. Allegorical means symbali.
[14:03] Speaker 1: Yes, our float symbolizes modern housekeeping.
[14:06] Speaker 2: Shall I describe it?
[14:07] Speaker 4: And will we stop it?
[14:08] Speaker 6: No?
[14:10] Speaker 4: That's what I thought.
[14:12] Speaker 2: Go ahead, Well, the whole.
[14:14] Speaker 1: Float is a giant replica of a container Johnson's self
[14:17] Speaker 1: polishing glow coat.
[14:18] Speaker 2: On one side, a banner says no rubbing and on
[14:20] Speaker 2: the other side no buffing.
[14:22] Speaker 5: Isn't that wonder?
[14:23] Speaker 4: Say?
[14:23] Speaker 7: Would it be cute to have a little boot black
[14:25] Speaker 7: with a bath powel in one hand and the shoe
[14:26] Speaker 7: in the other meaning what it shines as a dries?
[14:31] Speaker 6: No?
[14:31] Speaker 1: Okay, then we have a beautiful girl dressed as a
[14:34] Speaker 1: chic little housewife, dressed to go out of the movies
[14:37] Speaker 1: or shopping or somewhere.
[14:38] Speaker 2: We got a professional model for that.
[14:40] Speaker 4: But who'd you get to take the part of the sheik?
[14:42] Speaker 6: McGhee?
[14:43] Speaker 5: What makes you so dumb? He meant chick. That's French
[14:47] Speaker 5: for duffy, who.
[14:50] Speaker 2: Certainly.
[14:51] Speaker 1: Then then in the back there's a huge alarm clock
[14:55] Speaker 1: with a minute hand pointing to twenty, meaning a glow
[14:57] Speaker 1: coat drives to a mirror like polish in twenty minutes
[14:59] Speaker 1: or less. Of course, the whole floor of the float
[15:02] Speaker 1: is covered with a beautiful, gleaming linoleum. No kidding, it's
[15:05] Speaker 1: going to be a very effective float. And but what
[15:07] Speaker 1: are you gonna do, Hollow, I'm gonna drive it.
[15:09] Speaker 4: You mean you're gonna drive it and play the cymbals
[15:11] Speaker 4: at the same time.
[15:12] Speaker 2: Who said anything about playing the symbol?
[15:14] Speaker 4: You said it was symbolic, didn't you.
[15:16] Speaker 1: Oh, for Pete's sake, it's no wonder they asked you
[15:20] Speaker 1: to lead the parade. You can't even follow an idea.
[15:31] Speaker 4: What's he getting so fine haired about?
[15:33] Speaker 3: Well, now he thought you were making fun of him.
[15:35] Speaker 3: You know, don't forget he takes his work very seriously.
[15:38] Speaker 4: I know that any guy that has his bedroom ceiling
[15:41] Speaker 4: covered with linoleum, so it's the last thing he sees
[15:43] Speaker 4: at night and the first thing in the morning has
[15:46] Speaker 4: gotten my deep. Hey, didn't that costume company send me
[15:48] Speaker 4: a somber arro.
[15:49] Speaker 5: Of course they did. It's over there by the waste basket.
[15:51] Speaker 4: Which one is the wastebasket, the one with all.
[15:54] Speaker 3: The tissue paper, and it is the hats? Look on me,
[16:00] Speaker 3: my well, frankly, dearie, you look like a grasshopper under
[16:03] Speaker 3: a mushroom.
[16:05] Speaker 5: No wonder cowboys always sing such lonesome songs.
[16:08] Speaker 3: What do you mean well, with a hat like that,
[16:09] Speaker 3: nobody can get near them.
[16:11] Speaker 4: Ah, you just ain't used to it. The reason that
[16:14] Speaker 4: come in.
[16:16] Speaker 5: Oh hello there, mister Mayor.
[16:17] Speaker 4: Oh hi, lat trivia?
[16:18] Speaker 2: What goes?
[16:19] Speaker 4: I beg your pardon? What's pretty in the city? What
[16:21] Speaker 4: tries with the guys? What do you know that they're so?
[16:25] Speaker 5: Don't be so slang in? What he means, mister Mayor,
[16:28] Speaker 5: is what's cooking?
[16:32] Speaker 2: I see, I see.
[16:33] Speaker 6: I'm afraid I'm right up on the modern idiom.
[16:36] Speaker 4: Who's a modern idiom?
[16:37] Speaker 5: Now you look here?
[16:39] Speaker 4: That's a minute, please.
[16:40] Speaker 2: I just wanted to be sure you were familiar with
[16:42] Speaker 2: the root of the prey.
[16:43] Speaker 3: Well I think we are, but maybe you better run
[16:44] Speaker 3: over again to make sure, mister Mayor, if you.
[16:46] Speaker 1: Have time, huh, I'll take time, though I have been
[16:49] Speaker 1: so busy making my belt buckle speech at different places.
[16:51] Speaker 1: I haven't been able to devote much thought to this parade.
[16:54] Speaker 4: What do you mean belt buckle speech? La trivia about
[16:56] Speaker 4: our war effort?
[16:57] Speaker 1: McGhee. I talked to people in offices and factors and
[16:59] Speaker 1: school rules. I tell them that if we expect our
[17:02] Speaker 1: boys to belt those Japs over there, we have to
[17:04] Speaker 1: buckle down and work over here.
[17:06] Speaker 8: Good.
[17:07] Speaker 1: The whole purpose of my talks, of course, is to
[17:09] Speaker 1: make people realize that this war won't be won simply
[17:12] Speaker 1: by giving up two golf balls, a new inner tube,
[17:14] Speaker 1: and a tea spoonful of sugar. This thing involves everything

[18:29] Speaker 7: an East and West street, which will be Washington going east,
[18:31] Speaker 7: and it's a one way street going west.
