Because the toasting brings a flavor right through so to get better taste from your cigarette. Lucky Strike is the brand to get. It's toasted to give you the best taste yet, it's the toasted. The cigarette. This is Don Wilson, friends. That version of the Lucky Strike song Dorothy Collins just sang may be different in temple, but the story is still the same. A lucky taste better because it's toasted to taste better. You see, better taste starts with fine, mild, good tasting tobacco.

L.S.M.F.T., Lucky Strike means fine tobacco. And then that tobacco is toasted. It's toasted is the famous Lucky Strike process that brings Lucky's fine tobacco to its peak of flavor. Tones up this naturally good tasting tobacco to make it taste even better, cleaner, fresher, smoother. So, friends, remember that next time you buy cigarettes and be happy, go lucky. If you want better taste from your cigarette, Lucky Strike is the brand to get. It's toasted to give you the best taste yet, it's the toasted. The cigarette.

As you know, ladies and gentlemen, Hollywood is the glamour capital of the world. And since Saturday night is the time your favorite stars get together for those gay parties you read about, let's go back to last night and see what's going on in Jack Benny's Beverly Hills Mansion. Everyone sure seems to be having a good time for us. Well, certainly they're having a good time. When you give your guests good food, a big orchestra, and the champagne flows like water, how can you miss? Well, close the window Rochester, we can't watch Ronald Coleman's party all night. Big show off, close the window. Good, now help me off this box. You know Rochester, I just can't understand it. What boss? Well, the Coleman's and I are next door neighbors. And when Ronnie first moved in, I used to go to all his parties.

But the last few years, he's had a dozen big affairs and I haven't received an invitation to a single one of them. What do you suppose it could be? Maybe he lost your address. Yeah, yeah. Well, come on, let's finish our game of General Me. Okay, was your turn to throw a card? Yeah. Let's see, now, first you discard a Lieutenant Club and the three of spades, the six of hearts, the Jack of Diamonds, the eight of hearts, the five of spades. What's so funny? It's your health when you've got them written down. Look, you play your way and I'll play mine. I hate to break up my hand, but it's the only safe card I can give you. Here you are, the King of Spades. Gen! Are you lucky? Deal them up again. Rochester, are you sure I didn't get an invitation to Coleman's party?

Of course it is. They must have sent me an invitation and got lost in the mail. Excuse me a minute. What are you doing, boss? I'm going to call a post office. I'm going to give him a piece of my mind. While your body's lost, don't they? Didn't deliver the gas bill this month either. It's your play, Rochester. Gee, I got a pretty good hand this time. You'll need it. Why? I got gin! Again? That's the most unusual. I'll guess. Hello? Hello, is this Mr. Benny? Yes. Well, it's his show with Mr. Coleman's butler. Oh, showered. Yes, yes, yes. Yes, yes, yes. Mr. Coleman was a trifling baddest. We even wrote the subject of this late hour. But we're having a party. I know. I know. 183 gas. Oh, I say you've been on that box again.

Such a devil, aren't I? Well, at any rate, Mr. Coleman thought you might like to slip into your tuxedo and come over. What? I certainly would, Sherrod. I'll be glad to come over. Good, and remember, you served from the left and removed from the right. Now, look, Sherrod. I'm not waiting on tables for Ronald Coleman or anyone else. So, goodbye. It was all unnerved. They can keep their party. I'm just as happy here at home with you, Rochester. But, boss, I'm going out tonight. Going out? Yeah, I thought you were going to stay with me. I'd like to, but I may plan to take the night off. But, Rochester, you were off last week. Oh, boss, you're not counting Tuesday night, are you? Why not? That's when I had my bandage taken out. What's the difference? You didn't get home till three in the morning.

Whole night he wants for that. Well, if you want to night off, you better get started, then. Okay, I'm going to stay and put a tie on. Everybody wants time off. See what I do with myself all night. It's only someone I can play cards with. I wonder if Remly's home. Yeah, he cheats. See, this is going to be a boring evening. I don't know what... Hello? Hello, Mr. Benny, this is Dennis. Oh, Dennis, what do you want, kid? Nothing. Are you going to be home tonight? Yes, why? Well, I thought I might come over and visit you. Oh, wonderful, Dennis. Come on over. Okay, don't go away. Goodbye. I'm ready to go, boss, but if you really mind staying alone... It's all right, Rochester. Dennis just called. He's coming over to keep me company. Oh, that's nice of him. It sure is. I wonder what I can serve him. Well, Dennis, I wish bread and some cold cuts in the refrigerator.

Yeah, Dennis has such a sweet tooth. Have we plenty of candy? Oh, yeah, we've got combos, tootsie rolls, liquids, and some old Henry bars. Oh, good. Shall I put them in the machine? No, no, I can do it. You run along. Okay, good night, boss. So long, Rochester. She is nice to Dennis to want to spend the evening with me. He'll sit around, he'll talk to me, discuss his problem, drive me nuts. Anyway, I'll be alone, so it'll be nice. Hmm, who can that be? Hello, Mr. Benny. Dennis. How'd you get here so fast? I was next door at the Coleman's party. What? I would have got here sooner, but I walked.

I looked, Dennis, I'm in no mood for any shit. Not so loud. If they find out I'm with you, they might not let me back in. You might not have got that line out, either. Look, Dennis, why don't you go back to your party? Well, don't you even want to hear my song for tomorrow's show? No, I don't. But it'll cheer you up. All right, all right. Go ahead and cheer me up. I'll change my mind. Dennis, sing that song! Okay, what a sorehead. 1. 2. Good job. Good works. Good work. Good work. Good work. Good work. Good work, trembAllah. An Englishman has jammed. These days, it's truly difficult to raffle his flamm.

He heard you and his tissue, but wherever he may be. At four o'clock, he'll have to stop to sit for top of tea. But an Irishman, an Irishman, would steal your heart away. He'd be giving you and began you with a thull of blue belay. When that rope turned on the brood, your heart would go its way. Who an Irishman, an Irishman, would steal your heart away. Italian men are fiery, Italian men are warm. And when they love it, they love with all the fury of a storm. But you could turn the flame of the lights and make them run for life. For all you gotta do is eat us together with a knife. But an Irishman, an Irishman, would steal your heart away. He'd be giving you and began you with a thull of blue belay. When that rope turned on the brood, your heart would go its way. Who an Irishman, an Irishman, would steal your heart away. A Frenchman is romantic, and the French have some affair.

When he makes love to you, it's always torred, torred, yeah, the man. He said to you, to show love, my life, and you different. But next day he'll be making love to two of you, this friend. Ah, an Irishman, an Irishman, would steal your heart away. He'd be giving you and began you with a thull of blue belay. When that rope turned on the brood, your heart would go its way. Who an Irishman, an Irishman, would steal your heart away. The German man is steady, the German man is smart. For he'll come around and around again to win the Ferrari's heart. But you can lose him easily and make him hide his face. When he comes round to see you tell him, this is not the bridge! Ah, an Irishman, an Irishman, would steal your heart away. He'd be giving you and began you with a thull of blue belay.

When that rope turned on the brood, your heart would go its way. Oh, an Irishman, an Irishman, would steal your heart away. Dennis, Dennis, now that you've let me hear your song, go back to the Coleman's party before you drive me crazy. And you can tell him for me that... Come in! Hi, Jack! Why, Donzie, come on in. What are you doing here, Don? Well, Jack, you know the little woman's out of town, so I just thought I'd drop by and see if you'd like to take in a movie with me. A movie? Yeah, I'm glad you thought of it. That's a wonderful idea. I didn't have anything to do tonight. I've been to a movie in months. Maybe Dennis will go with us.

Dennis, where is he? He's standing under your stomach. Dennis, please don't laugh on him. I'm too young to die. Hey, Dennis, you want to go to the movie with us? Sure, what's playing? Well, I was going to the Palisades' drive-in there, showing that new English film there, Murder in Piccadilly. Oh, let's go there. And they've also got a surprise second feature. I hear they've had some great ones lately. Hey, I like that two feature. That sounds pretty good. I've never been to a drive-in. Come on, fellas, my car's in the driveway. Hey, I think we're getting to the drive-in theater. There's a cowboy picture at the strand. Dennis, you'll go where we go. You're only alone. Oh, Jack, Jack, stop the lights changing.

Okay. Say, look who's in the car at X to us. Where? Why is the sportsman? Hi, fellas. Hope you have a nice time, fellas. A nice time. Where are they going, Don? Well, don't you know, Jack, they're going away for the weekend. Oh, hey, where are you going, boys? We're going to get away. Oh, really, really awesome, fellas. Yeah, it's a beautiful place. I've been there many times. There's a tiny house. There's a tiny house. By a tiny stream. By a tiny stream. Where a lovely life.
