je oh the jello program starring Jack
Benny with Mary Livingston and Phil
Harris and his orchestra the orchestra
opens the program with one in a million
from the picture of the same name
[Music]
rain or shine I always plan to have a
Sunday night supper at home that's one
of our American customs that I wouldn't
pass up for anything in the world and
especially when Supper is topped off by
a great gleaming dish of jell-o jell-o
certainly a swell way to end a swell day
that famous true fruit flavor always
hits the spot because each of jell-o six
delicious flavors comes from fresh ripe
fruit whether you serve strawberry
raspberry cherry orange lemon or lime
you'll always appreciate jell-o's extra
rich fruit flavor but remember jello is
the only gelatin dessert that has that
extra rich fruit flavor so just be sure
you get the real thing always ask for
genuine jello
[Music]
that's appointed a million played by
Phil Harris and his orchestra and now

hole a hole in a minute dodge or Jack

[Music]
the holidays are over now but the season
for entertaining is just beginning
you'll probably be entertaining a lot
during the rest of the winter and here's
my suggestion for one of those extra
special dinners of yours that needs an
extra-special dessert make a marshmallow
pineapple mold with jello it's a grand
way to please all your family and guests
and you'll be pleasing yourself at the
same time because marshmallow plan Apple
mold is so easy to make just dissolve a
package of lime jell-o in 1 pint of hot
water chill until slightly thickened and
then first fold in 3 slices of canned
pineapple diced and a second 10 finally
cut marshmallows after that allow this
delicious combination to set and then
you'll be ready to serve one of the most
completely enjoyable desserts you've
ever known
but remember for marshmallow pineapple
mold always use genuine jello for jello
and only jello brings you that extra
rich fresh fruit flavor that makes such
a hit with everyone let's pull the big
red letters on the box they spell jello
[Music]
this is the last number of the 14th
program in the new jello series and
we'll be with you again next Sunday
night when we continue with buck many
rides again and even if I am a couple of
days late folks on behalf of the members
of the company myself I want to wish all
of you listeners are very happy and
prosperous new year
