that music say good health to all from rex All The Amos Sondi Show written
by Joe Connolly, Bob Moser and Bob Ross, featuring Ernestine Wade, Johnny

Alexander's Music, Your's, Julie Harlow Wilcox and starring Radios all time favorites Freeman
Gosden and Charles Carrell. Amos, Sandy, how do you do, Ladies
and gentlemen, My name is Freeman Gosden. I'd like to tell you about
another fine rex All product, Anna Peck. My Pard and I make it
a practice to keep Anna Peck in our own home, especially this time of
the year when coals are so prevalent. We found that there is nothing quite
as effective as anapac to give quick relief from those annoying coal symptoms and also
for that sick all over feeling that usually goes along with the coal. That's
because Annapac contains antihistamine together with time tested pain relievers. So the next time
you feel one of those annoying coals coming on, we suggest that you do
as we do. Start taking rex Al's anapac You'll find the directions right on
the bottle. That's anapac Ana pac. It's at Rexol drug stores everywhere.
Well, Andrew H. Brown is engaged again. How did it happen?
Well, it started about two weeks ago. It was a lovely sunday here
in New York. And Andrew H. Brown decided to take a bus ride
to visit some friends uptown. He got on the bus at the corner of
one hundred and twenty fourth Street and Lennox Avenue, and as the bus started
up, the driver said, please to this bus go up as far as
uh uh could you tell me? Could I? Could you? Uh?
Hell? He? Would you kindly move to the re of the bus.
No, I'm gonna sit right here. You know something, you was really
pretty. You was about the only bus driver I ever see that didn't need
to shave. Moved to the re of the bus please. And when the
bus got to one hundred and thirty fourth Street and they were still trying to
break the ice, would you please move to the re of the bus.
You was really sweet. You know something. When you cut off that taxi
cab back there there was a spression on your face that reminded me of my
mother. Love to the bee of the bus, please, and then the
bus rolled on and on and on. Please move to the ree of the
bus. You know you is so sweet and graceful. I could sit here
all day and just watch you shift the gears. Do you realize that you've
ridden with me up and back to the Grand concourse six times this afternoon?
Yeah? I ain't going this study with a gale before without being engaged.
Move to the bee of the bus please, Well, I finally moved to
the rear of the bus. Yes, but I don't think we should sit
back here much longer. The supervisor might come by. Well, now that
we are holding hands like this, allow me to introduce myself. My name
is Andrew H. Brown Es Whire, but my friends just call me Andrew.
How do you do Andy? My name is Susan Bennett. Susan Bennett
say, that's a pretty name. I but a cute little guy like you

now two weeks later and Andy is up in his room making the official announcement

I try to influence her, the more determined she is. So I'm willing
to pay you one hundred dollars to break up the marriage. Now, wait
a minute, you was asking me to betray my best friend for one hundred
dollars? Is you asking me to come between him and the gal he loves?

you know, after all, in the market, that's always the ripest
melon, the drawers, the most flies. Nice girl got her own job

That's natural? Yeah, but I has just discovered that the gal is an
heiress and the man that marriage her think of the position i'd be to move

bar. I could crank case two lego Calhoun and is up at the gal's
apartment right now, telling the gals that he is a criminal and breaking off
the engagement. Tell me what you gonna do when I wait a minute,
Maybe you could bust in up there and telling that Andy was breaking off the
engagement for a noble reason, telling Andy, don't find out she got money.
He's too fine, a noble a character to marry a gal with money.
Yeah, that's a great idea. I rush up there right now.

Having trouble with your glasses, Hunty, I'll say I he is.
The other day I've seen a barber pole and went into place and asked for
a shave and a half, and the marriager of the bakery told me out
what about the barber pool? It turned out to be a skinny gale and
a stripped sweater. So there's a story. Susan. I is really a
hardened criminal and you a criminal. I just can't believe it. You've always
been so sweet. Well, you see, Susan, I has got two
personalities, I as a regular doctor jerkill and mister HyET. No, Susan,
it's like I say, it'll never work out. Oh, I come
to say farewell and goodbye. Well, and if that's what I'll see who
it is? Why your friend, mister Stevens, excuseie, your Susan and
the boy. I can't let you do it? Do what? Can't break
off the marriage just because you know that Susan here and really a bus driver,
but it's actually a society girl who has got one hundred thousand dollars in
her own name cash. I knows that the stupid umus better Andy Hill made
up that story about being a criminal, and for a very noble reason.
He made it up too. What reason was that? Yeah? What reason
was that? King? Because Andy, you was too noble to marry a
woman who has got money. But I can't let you do it. And
I know you love Susan and she is the girl for you. Yeah,
I say what you mean, Kingfish? But what about Lee high five six
' nine oh wrong number? Oh oh? And mister Stevens is right,
you're wonderful for feeling that way, but we can't let my money staying in
the way of our marriage. Well, okay, honey, I'll marrier.
It's just that I has always felt that marriage can't be a success where the
wife has got a lot of money. Ain't that what I felt? Kingfish?
You were said it a thousand times. Oh Andy, we have been
married. This is all so wonderful. Let's not wait any longer. Yeah,
get married right away. You know. It's only I hope, Susan,
that you can be worthy of a man like and there with his fine
ideals. Yeah. And you know, honey, even though I hate your
money, I'll be as kind to it as if it was my own.
Well, that's right, Amos. The wedding is gonna go ahead tomorrow.
Well, uh, and there this is the MoES on again off again thing
I done ever heard of in my life. Well, it was, I
tell you, you know how indy is. He decided to call it off.
He's the fickle type. Then he heard about the money, and well,
I'll tell you, Amos, there something about a hundred thousand dollars that
will unfickle a man in a hurry. Well, I put on a wonderful
act, amos, me saying I was so noble I couldn't marry a woman
with money. Ah ah, Well didn't know. I kind of feel sorry
for Susan. She sounded like a pretty wonderful gal, a gal that would
take a job driving a bus just so she could find real love. I
don't think you're doing right by this, Gail, Andy, you don't love
her lessen amos with a hundred thousand dollars involved. That don't pay to be
fussy. Yeah, you just keep out of this amos. Our gravy board
has come in and we are slapping around in the giblets. Andy. It
was nice of you to ride with me tonight, my last night on the
bus. Yes, Susan, honey. If it wasn't for this bus,
I would never meet you. This is a wonderful bus company. Oh just
think, and we'll be married tomorrow. And I know we're going to be
happy. Oh. Yeah, I know we're going to be happy too.
