the jello program starring Jack Benny
with Mary Livingston and Phil Harris and
his orchestra the orchestra opens a
program with life begins when you're in
love
[Music]
here's a letter from Alberta Canada
written by a young wife who asked me not
to mention her name but who gives me
full information to read you this
experience of hers my husband came home
the other day with a gelatin dessert not
manufactured by the jello company being
a dutiful wife I'm mumbling something
about having just purchased three
packages of jello and let the matter
drop but I knew that this was my
opportunity to prove that I know food
values and quality and purchasing so I
made the gelatin dessert my husband had
brought home and I also made jello jello
gave me a more richly flavored firmer
dessert that set in half the time and
now friend husband is thoroughly
convinced that I know my business well
we're grateful to you young lady for
sending us that letter it bears out what
I have so often said that jell-o spine
fresh fruit flavor is tops in taste no
other gelatin dessert can equal the
famous extra rich fruit flavor of
genuine jello but remember there is only
one jello so always be sure to ask for
it by name look for the big red letters
on the box they spell jello
[Music]
[Applause]
that was life begins when you're in love
played by the orchestra now ladies and
gentlemen we bring you that violinist
with the accent on viol Jack Benny
[Applause]
hmm that was very funny down very
humorous
evidently you've been listening to Fred
Allen again oh yes yes I have Jack did
you hear him last Wednesday yes Don but
only with my ears my heart wasn't in it
any man that can stand before a
microphone and say that I can't play a
violin just isn't normal
that's all but Jack he didn't say that
you couldn't play the violin no all he
said was you shouldn't play it hey Jack
yes Mary all I heard him say once you
couldn't play the violin at the age of
10 I'm glad you brought that up Mary
because I've got a photograph of myself
right here taken when I was 10 years old
playing the B on my violin a very
difficult number here Mary look yeah
what do you think of that I'm glad it's
not a sound picture they didn't have him
in those days but Jack now how can we
tell what number you're playing well if
you were a musician you'd know say who
are you working for anyway Fred Allen or
me jellow oh well let me tell you
something I played violin and concert
halls long before I knew anything about
strawberry cherry orange lemon and lime
you left out raspberry yeah I'll bet the
audience didn't that's right give Allen
more ammunition to work with let's see
that picture a minute will you Mary yeah
look at it Phil you're a musician that
proves conclusively that I'm an artist
well Jack anybody can have a picture
taken with a violin
yes Phil but look Kay can't you tell
from the way I'm holding it that I can
play you're holding it upside down well
it's much harder that way
[Laughter]
anyway I had a small chin and I couldn't
put the violin under ever now you put a
cello under it
that's though can I see the picture too
- Jack why why - to
why do you why do you want to see the
picture daddy
well everybody else is getting last out
of it yeah you don't need it don't get
cubed Kenny and another thing Fred Allen
said I only have two strings on my
fiddle imagine that's what he called my
Stradivarius a fiddle
is it a Stradivarius that's not the
point anyway you calm Mary you counter
with your how many strings do you see in
this picture 1/4 C and 3 on violin and
one around your waist well I went to
hold my trousers up I was a poor boy in
those days what burns me up Allen
picking on a poor defenseless boy anyway
I don't want to discuss it any further
hmm I should stoop to argue with a
toothpaste salesman
[Laughter]
[Music]
[Applause]
well you could use one
I said toothpaste not to page now let's
forget it
hey Kenny I want you to sing your song
earlier tonight it's very important okay

[Music]
this is the time of the year when it's
usually difficult to get something new
and different into your main use so
here's one suggestion that is found to
give you that welcome touch of variety
serve salad supreme it's a delicious
jell-o salad here's how you make it
dissolve a package of lime jell-o and
one sign of hot water and a chilled and
slightly thickened then pulled in one
cup of diced tart apples one cup of
chopped cabbage and four finely chopped
stuff olives after that simply mold is
brand combination and serve it on crisp
lettuce with some real mayonnaise it
makes a wonderful salad one that will
add variety to any meal but just be sure
you make this salad with genuine jello
for only jello brings you that mellow
extra rich fruit flavor remember to ask
for the real thing
insist on the one and only genuine jello
[Music]
the last number of the sixteenth program
and the new jello series and we'll be
with you again next Sunday night
