and four nights, of course.
Speaker 3: Now what about the famous Ravagingian doll.
Speaker 5: I am a poor man, Fallad, in a few acres
of worthless vines.
Speaker 3: But I am generous, although it ruins me.
Speaker 5: For this simple task, I will pay you two hundred dollars.
Speaker 1: The price we discussed was one thousand dollars, much too much. Well,

a poor farmer. On my knees each night.

My gratitude. No five hundred dollars my last offer.

and eight hundred and.

tent to raise What can I do such generosity? Twelve hundred,

my life one thousand done good, all right, seal the bargain.
Speaker 4: Watch you, my friend, drink or fire.

Speaker 3: Will you pour for me enough?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 2: Hmhmmkay enough.
Speaker 3: Mm hmm.
Speaker 5: Here is a man, go friend, bring back my daughter, Yes,
of course.
Speaker 1: I followed their trail out of the summer valley and
into the high range lanes. Along the way, I talked
to a miner, a cowpuncher, a deputy sheriff. All of
them remembered helen Na Virginian quite well. Hardly anyone could
tell me anything about our traveling companion, except that he
wore chaps and boots and carried a gun. It was
noon of the second day when I first caught sight
of them. They were resting in the shade of a
grove of cottonwood. I dismounted and walked toward them. They
were so busy with their problems they didn't notice.
Speaker 4: Ma'am, I ain't gonna ride my horse to death for you.
No other one you gonna love me? Your dog gonna
ride I don't. I told you that every four of
the last hundred miles. No, ma'am. Ma'am. Look, people just
ain't gonna believe you followed me. But I gonna go
home now. You have me gone to mind. Now that's
a lie. I ain't laid a hand on you. At
my father's house.
Speaker 3: You kissed me.
Speaker 2: I was just funny.
Speaker 4: There is something wrong with me. I kiss badly that night.
I'm ugly. I didn't say that. You just ain't my
type at all. That's what it is. I don't like
to be chased. It makes a man nervous.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry.
Speaker 4: Yeah here, now let me get you.
Speaker 5: You're God see you see you'll kiss me again.
Speaker 6: Don't you kiss me?
Speaker 2: You ought to be ashamed? Shame?
Speaker 4: Is it so bad that I love you and you
let me dance for you and change your mind?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 4: No, no, ma'n ma'am. If you so much as move
an elbow, I'm gonna.
Speaker 1: How do mister Sabaginian? Yes, my name is Paladin. Your
father employed me to bring you back.
Speaker 3: Oh man, am I glad to hear that? Both of you?
Mister O'Reilly?
Speaker 4: Well, what's your father want me for?
Speaker 3: For a wedding?
Speaker 4: To her?
Speaker 3: To her?
Speaker 4: Look, you don't want to take me back for that?
Why a man wants to feel comfortable with this woman?
Now her?
Speaker 3: Well?
Speaker 4: Man? Just watching her walk makes me feel old? Edgy?
You who wants to spend his life feeling like that?
Speaker 2: How old are you? Mister? Mister?
Speaker 4: You can talk to your blue in the face. Guns
are no guns. I still ain't going back with you,
and I'm not going to marry her.
Speaker 3: Maybe it's just as well. A really good girl wouldn't
have ridden trail alone with him.
Speaker 2: You take that back.
Speaker 4: She's as good as they come.
Speaker 3: You seem pretty certain.
Speaker 4: I am certain.
Speaker 3: It sounds like you just might be in love with her.
You take that, Jimmy, don't worry about him. Miss. He's
all right anyway. He's going back with us.
Speaker 4: Jimmy, Jimmy, open your ear. Did you hear that?
Speaker 7: You're okay, okay, okay, okay, I'm going back.
Speaker 4: But just remember, you can lead a horse to war,
but you can't make him drink. You don't call it anyway.
Speaker 1: In the eighteen hundreds, the Monroe Doctrine dictated that Americans
put a wall between themselves in the world. Today, however,
times have changed. From city dweller to farmer, Americans know
they are part of the world and close to it,
and the more they can find out about it.
Speaker 3: The better.
Speaker 1: That's why the broadcasts of Edward R. Murrow and Lowell
Thomas are so popular. Each of these internationally known newsmen
has a wide background in the history, the politics, the
economics on which current events are built. Whether you're interested
in high level affairs of state abroad, economic developments here
at home, or the latest advances of science, you'll find
them presented clearly and understandably by Murrell and Thomas, with
the touch of wit or human interest that has won
them listeners everywhere in the world. If you're not already
addicted to the news, as CBS Radio presents it nightly
start this week to follow the broadcasts of Edward R.
Murrow and Lowell Thomas, they both heard Monday through Friday
on most of these same CBS stations.
Speaker 3: The trip back to the Soma Valley was uneventful.
Speaker 1: The happy bride chattered all away, and the reluctant groom
grew more surly and silent as the Aberginian vineyards came
into sight. Once there, the father in law to be
ordered immediate preparations for the wedding. Aside from half a
hundred people scurrying together the best foods and wines and music,
these orders also included the business of washing up for all.
Speaker 5: Yeh w any men has been seven days and nights
with a beautiful a woman.
Speaker 6: He says that he did not touch it. Then I'm
listening to a liar or a fool. That's so now
I'm a fool. That's all the thanks I get for
being a gentleman.
Speaker 4: Now you got into the top off of the close stop.
I ain't gonna take no bath and I ain't taking
off my clothes.
Speaker 2: Well, okay, these people.
Speaker 4: Ain't got no right to pull off my clothes and
don't mean here, even barbarian bathe's foot is on matter.
And I told you I'm just marrying where to protect
your reputation, that's all. That's all. You can lead a
horse to water into the cob, hey, so don't pull
that water. The first time I ever took a bath
in the middle of the week.
Speaker 6: But at the beginning of old Grete woman heaving past
year is your mother.
Speaker 2: The lights full of God's preach can have a towel.
Speaker 4: Cleaner than a new late age.
Speaker 2: But here is a doll. I was just getting time
for the business of the wedding.
Speaker 3: Heresh, don't pour that on me.
Speaker 2: Oil for fragrance. Rub this into your skin. You've got
a pleasant.
Speaker 4: Oh, I won't do no such thing. Oh it smells
sweet enough to catch flies.
Speaker 3: It's customary, O'Reilly.
Speaker 4: Ain't I got a right to have customs too.
Speaker 2: It didn't go.
Speaker 3: You know something, O'Reilly? You make quite a picture.
Speaker 7: You were, Oh, dog gone it.
Speaker 1: It's not often the man sit at the table like this.
Mused to be life. Guess backm O'Reilly, Yeah, gotta try something.
Speaker 4: No time I was moving along.
Speaker 2: I went through getting married, and you did.
Speaker 3: But a smart man doesn't ride off at night hungry.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well I tell you I ain't staying now now
I've done my part.
Speaker 3: No, I'm just keeping you goodbye. Yeah, what's the matter.
Speaker 4: Don't don't let that. I can't run off without saying
goodbye to the girl, can I?
Speaker 2: I mean, after all, I just I just married her.
Speaker 3: No, it's just a formality. Is like you said, you
can lead a horse to water and now goodbye O'Riley.
Speaker 4: Not how come all of a sudden you want me
to leave?
Speaker 1: Huh?
Speaker 3: Why is that?
Speaker 1: Well you don't seem to care about the girl. Maybe
it's just as well you don't wait and see her dance.
Speaker 4: Don't go on it.
Speaker 7: She can just dance her foolhead off. I'll be too
busy eating. I'll just be too busy to notice. What
is his foreign stuff?
Speaker 2: Here?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 3: No mighty good though here here cry this.
Speaker 2: Fat m h Hey, lady, got some good cooks around here?
Speaker 1: You know something, O'Riley bride ride all the way, the supervisors,
the preparation of the wedding.
Speaker 3: Foods. Just some food does it's customary?
Speaker 2: Knows that fact?
Speaker 4: Why not you know it?
Speaker 3: Just because they don't do things like my people.
Speaker 2: Let me see I got my four brothers. Well that
I don't mean, ain't.
Speaker 4: It's real down to earth folks, now, does it?
Speaker 3: You sound like you're beginning to grow up.
Speaker 4: I'm as drove it up as the next man. Just
because that little abaginian gal gets me. I mean, well,
don't go on it.
Speaker 2: Women don't chase me.
Speaker 3: I'm not too sure.
Speaker 4: What I mean is a man.
Speaker 7: Don't want a wife that chases him? Well, it's Helen
man if I live with her.
Speaker 2: Look, look, mister Keelevin.
Speaker 4: Just watching her makes me nervous.
Speaker 3: That's so, yes, yes, right, I mean my.
Speaker 4: Stomach flops around, my knees, shake my dog, going it.
She makes me feel down right miserable. A man wants
to feel kind of calm, comfortable.
Speaker 3: Oh. I think they're getting ready for her dance.
Speaker 4: Now, yeah, well I guess I ought to be mosey O'Reilly.
Speaker 1: You know, ancient Armenia was at the crossroads of the world.
The origins of her dances are lost in antiquaphy, a
flavor of ancient Greece, Persia, perhaps even Minora. Such dances
o'reiley are a language, the most understandable, universal, compelling language
of mankind.
Speaker 2: Well, maybe so Paladin.
Speaker 1: But I'm just there's your bride's dancing for you.
Speaker 2: Oh, yes, she's general. What's that she's.
Speaker 3: Wearing a veil from the Persian leaving mister.
Speaker 2: Oh, mister Paladin, that's my wife.
Speaker 1: Do you see speed laws and other regulations as restrictive
or do you look upon them as protective? When a
police officer writes a summons for traffic violations, do you
see him as an enemy or a friend.
Speaker 3: Your life may depend on your attitudes.
Speaker 1: Statistics clearly indicate that where laws are obeyed, deaths go down.
It's no secret that emotional immaturity is the major factor
in our accident rate.
Speaker 3: How else but childish?
Speaker 1: Can you describe the notion that breaking a traffic regulation
is a way of getting away with something. Unfortunately, too
many drivers on the road subscribe to that kind of
emotional outlook.
Speaker 3: The result is tragic.
Speaker 1: Almost eighty five percent of all traffic accidents in America
are caused by careless, childish driving. We hope you know
our traffic claus and the people who enforce them are
there to help save your life. The happy bride and
the no longer reluctant room disappeared from the festivities custom.
It was also custom for the festivities to continue the singing, dancing,
and be eating. I continued with them, but there came
a time when it was time to settle the business
of hand.
Speaker 3: You'll say, what dowry dowry? All right, ha ha ha.
Speaker 2: Listen to him, Listen to him, my people law.
Speaker 3: I am a liberal man if he wishes to live
with my dauthor.
Speaker 1: But you're mad if you think that, no dowry, no
son in law, your own custom of Virginia.
Speaker 2: I speak on custom.
Speaker 3: You think I would play so much as a single.
Speaker 4: Gold to mix his blood with mine?
Speaker 1: You offer to let your daughter carry the marriage her
bedding and clothing. Oh, such generosity should be written on
the side of Mount Ararat for.
Speaker 4: All the sea all I.
Speaker 3: Perhaps I could spare a gold for milk, a.
Speaker 1: Goat for milk. Oh, they can spare a goat for milk.
Beside a Virginian, the poorest Arab in the mud Hut
is a caliph who dispenses gifts of amber and silver.
Speaker 3: Now beside Abaginian.
Speaker 1: A serpent becomes an animal of great stature and dignity.
Speaker 3: In a Toab becomes an animal of great beauty.
Speaker 5: Perhaps I can't afford an acre of vines.
Speaker 2: I'm a poor line.
Speaker 3: An acre of vines? Now, did you did you hear that?
Speaker 1: An acre of vines? Come that as circulating news of
such generosity. A messenger to the old country, a runner
to the next town.
Speaker 3: A right, all right?
Speaker 4: Five acres of wines and two of.
Speaker 1: Three, of ten and five and five with a hout,
no fifty sheep almoless ten go, no six carrying milk?
Speaker 2: All right, the green paladin stop there you wrong?
Speaker 5: And all.
Speaker 3: I hope that voice round in his blood. His parents
had five sons. Fine, well, busy day, mister Pelladin.
Speaker 2: But perhaps not a bad one.
Speaker 3: Five you say, he told me so himself.
Speaker 2: Then perhaps a grandson.
Speaker 3: A glass of orchie for lock.
Speaker 8: I'd be delighted, mister Rabbaginian. Hey boy, oh, mister Paradine,
happy to see you. Did you get me the tickets
to the hey boy? Did not forget?
Speaker 3: Yeah? That's fine, eh boy, I'll just get ah.
Speaker 2: I'm so sorry, so clumsy of me.
Speaker 4: Not your tickets away, But all right, those are our
ballet ticket.
Speaker 2: Oh you're with the ballet rus You will see me danced,
and you enjoy the ballet.
Speaker 1: Mister Paladin, Madame. As a matter of fact, I do.
I saw your company in Parents last year. So, and
I'm just returning from a visit where I saw the
Armenian Wine dance beautifully performed.
Speaker 4: Oh yes, I have heard of that dance.
Speaker 2: I should enjoy attempting it someday.
Speaker 4: But where is there such a teacher? Why do you
look at me so down?
Speaker 3: Gone?
Speaker 2: What?
Speaker 1: In my imagination I pictured you performing that dance, Madame Patcheffner,
May I offer you a cognac?
Speaker 2: Delighted?
