 Colgate dental cream to clean your breath while you clean your teeth and help stop tooth decay and Luster cream shampoo for soft glamorous caressable hair bring you our miss Brooks starring Eve Arden Once again for another comedy episode of our miss Brooks under the direction of Al Lewis Well after putting in a good day's work at school most teachers are content to spend a restful evening at home But our miss Brooks who teaches English at Madison High School is so popular that she's often called upon to share in the Neighborhood social life and a gay round of activity It is take last Thursday evening for example the couple who live next door to mrs. Davis and me Invited me over to their house right after dinner. They just wouldn't take no for an answer Friday morning at breakfast. I discussed the events of the past evening with my landlady It was nice of the Fletchers to ask you over last night Connie. Did you have a good time? It was the maddest social event of the season mrs. Davis the Fletchers went to a party And I sat with their seven-year-old boy until he got sleepy Well, at least it gave you something to do dear and Tommy is a good little boy good But dull he's a kind of an in-between age, you know, what do you mean in between? He's too tall for nursery rhymes and too short to rumble How did you entertain each other? We didn't they have a television set What did you see Connie? Well, I can't say exactly, but when I finally put on my pajamas and went to bed I felt naked without spurs Of course, I must admit I get a big kick out of them myself you mrs. Davis Yes, indeed when I was the schoolgirl we lived in Texas and I did a lot of riding really from our house I had to take two trolleys and a bus to get to school But tell me about Tommy did you have any trouble getting him to bed? Well a little at the beginning But fortunately I found a book by dr. Gregory Enten the famous child psychologist I just applied his method and Tommy was in bed five minutes later. What method does dr. Enten recommend pulling the plug on the television set You know I was pretty relieved when his folks got home though Tommy didn't look too well last night What was wrong? I don't know his eyes were kind of red and he seemed a little warm could be a cold coming on He probably was run down Coals are all a matter of resistance. That's why I like you to eat a good breakfast every morning now here He's this cereal. I crushed some fruit in with your popsies this morning Oh, no wonder these popsies were so peaceful today Usually they crackle bark and snap at me What kind of fruit did you put in two kinds? I just can't seem to remember what they were though Mrs. Davis, you are the most absent-minded person. I've ever met. Oh, I don't know. There must be somebody worse than I am Oh, of course there is I was just exaggerating. I wouldn't hurt your feelings for the world. You know that of course I do Connie Hurt my feelings about what? Oh About anything as trivial as some fruit fruit There are two kinds in my cereal this morning. Oh, that's the best way to eat it But you better hurry if you want to be ready when Walter Denton comes to drive you to school Oh, Walter isn't picking me up this morning He's got an errand to do for his father, but I've got time to catch the 815 bus I don't know about that Connie. What do you mean my watch says five minutes of eight? Your watch is fibbing It's 820 right now. What? Oh, then I'll be late. Mr. Conklin will kill me. I've got a run. Goodbye, dear Now why should my feelings be hurt because she put fruit in her cereal? You the same question well don't besides I've got a good excuse I can blame it all on the 815 bus What happened to it? It was on time I'm afraid you won't be able to kid old marble head out of I mean mr. Conklin's a bug on punctuality I hope he doesn't catch you catch me. What about you? You're just as late as I am over two minutes Yeah, I know I had a flat Well, let's get going miss Brooks. We might as well march to the guillotine together Fine. We couldn't ask for a nicer day for a doubleheader Now just be as quiet as possible after we get up the steps. Go in miss Brooks Now if we can just sneak past mr. Conklin's office. Yeah, here it is Let's tippy-toe Gosh, I'm scared to death. Oh, relax Walder. We're only a couple of minutes late that could happen to anybody You certainly are common our time of danger miss Brooks. Oh, it's the only way to be Walder There's no sense in getting panicky. What if mr. Conklin comes out of his office if mr. Conklin comes out I'll merely smile and say good morning, mr. Conklin Well Enthusiastic greeting may I remind you miss Brooks that this school is in session and what's more it has been for some time However, I'll deal with you first Denton You have exactly ten seconds to present your reason for this tardiness begin Time's up You've had a fair trial. I'll meet out your punishment You sir will report to the athletic athletic field after school today And you will bring with you a long plank and a pen knife What are they for? You're going to fill the high jump pit with shaving The hard way But mr. Case dismissed now go to your class at once. Yes, mr. Conklin And now it's your turn my pen knives all rusty mr. Conklin I should be in my classroom. I've appointed my daughter Harriet as monitor of your class So there's time for your punishment miss Brooks by a rare coincidence I've written in longhand a ten page speech entitled the early bird You will type it up neatly in triplicate and have it on my desk by noon today You want me to type ten pages in triplicate? I don't chew my cabbage twice Me either if it's cooked enough once as usually plenty Pay attention miss Brooks at 12 30 today I am addressing the good fellows monthly lunch a group of which I have recently been elected best fellow. Oh Congratulations, mr. Conklin, isn't every fellow who can be elected best fellow of the good fellows So right and today marks my 30th consecutive meeting without once being tardy or absent This breaks the former attendance record of 29 consecutive luncheons and makes me the new champion I'd give anything to see you crowned I'd like to be there when you read your speech. I'm afraid that's impossible. It's just for good fellows But if you can keep a secret Let you in on something they are presenting me with a solid gold pocket watch today How do you know mr. Conklin? It was suggested at the last meeting and I have paid to say my motion was almost unanimously Now then here are the pages I want to type this Brooks. I've got to get back into my office Yes, mr. Conklin. I'll do the best I can remember miss Brooks by noon sharp Those papers must be on my desk and let this be a lesson to you. Good morning. It's a dandy. Oh Hello, miss Brooks. Hello, mr. Boyden. I just stepped out of the lab to get some things in the supply room Did you just step out of your class? No, I haven't stepped in yet I was a little late today and mr. Conklin just caught me arriving What did he say quite a bit but boiled down to an hour It adds up to my having to type a 10 page speech for him in triplicate He's got to read it at his club meeting today. That isn't fair I don't approve of disciplinary measures that relieve him of work. That's rightfully his I agree that it's a great imposition But there's nothing I can do about it. It certainly is an imposition my goodness I've got some biology papers that have to be typed by tomorrow morning, and I'm a poor typist I wouldn't think of asking anyone to do it for me. Huh? It wouldn't be fair for me to expect another teacher to stay after school and work with me on my notes in the biology lab Of course it would in fact It would be an imposition for you not to expect someone to help you But you just said who are you gonna believe what I just said or me? Mr. Boyden, I know of a teacher who'd love to type those notes for you But it would mean staying here quite late Uh-huh Well, the office in my lab is terribly small. I hear you talking Oh We'd be jammed in there for hours and the lighting is pretty bad too. Yum. Yum I couldn't ask anybody to put up with that. Could I don't hesitate a minute Do you really mean it miss Brooks? Do you honestly think I should ask someone to help ask ask? I'll do it. I'll go ask miss enright to give me a hand Oh miss enright can't possibly do any typing. She's she's letting her fingernails grow It's for a part in a dramatic club sketch. She's playing the role of foo man choose mother Well say I don't like to mention this miss Brooks, but while you were talking I noticed that your face seems quite flushed You've got several red spots on your neck. Don't tell me I'm blushing in polka dots I don't want to alarm you, but I'd like to take you to the infirmary right now Why mr. Boyden, this is the first date you've asked me for in weeks I don't know. I want the nurse to take a look at you. Have you been exposed to anything contagious lately? Just mr. Conklin. That is What do you think I've got mr. Boyden? measles Where could I possibly catch a childish disease like measles? I haven't been around any kids since last night Last night Tommy who's Tommy there's no time for details, but he's the author of hop along Brooks hops to the infirmary Barton will continue in just a moment, but first Here is vern smith readers digest reports the results of one of the most extensive experiments in dentiferous history Yes, readers digest reports the very same research which proves brushing teeth right after eating with colgate natto cream stops tooth decay best and here are additional important facts Over a two-year period the colgate way stopped more decay for more people than ever before reported in dentiferous history Yes, the colgate way of brushing teeth right after eating Stop tooth decay best better than any other home method of oral hygiene even more important There were no new cavities whatever for more than one out of three who used colgates as directed No other dentiferous Ammoniated or not has proof of such results The best results ever reported for a dentiferous of any type and you should know that colgate dental cream While not mentioned by name was the only toothpaste used in the research reported in july readers digest Yes, colgate dental cream and only colgate dental cream was used in this research So always use colgates to clean your breath while you clean your teeth And when you follow the colgate way colgate dental cream stops tooth decay best I didn't relish the idea of standing around in the hall chatting about measles So I let mr. Boynton guide me toward the infirmary He told me he had had measles before so he wasn't afraid of catching them from me Judging from his attitude in the past. He was safe even if he hadn't had them before He's never gotten close enough to me to catch a dangerous glance Here we are miss brooks. Let's step into the waiting room The nurse must be inside say isn't that stretch snot grass lying down on the couch in the corner? Well, yes, he seems to be reading really I didn't know he could He's not much of a student at that, but he's a fine athlete. Come on. Let's see what's wrong Hi stretch old boy. What are you doing on that couch? I'm lying on it Can answer like that it has integrity Where's the nurse stretch? She's in the back room with an emergency case an emergency case. What's the trouble?

She's had to take 12 stitches Oh, that's terrible. Who's injured stretch or football It's all busted up but the nurse says she can straighten it out pretty good. She's had some experience in platonic surgery Great science platonic surgery Well, I'm gonna get up now. The nurse spent that'll be about done with the ball Oh, don't get too close to miss brooks stretch. There's a chance. She has the measles. Oh, that's all right I can't catch them.

Boynton You're a little warm too. Aren't you miss brooks just a little Well, that could come from any number of things like being in such close proximity to mr. Boynton here But we better take your temperature Just to make sure now put this thermometer under your tongue There How's that? That's fine Good now just sit there and be still for a minute. I'll pay Well, mr. Boynton, we don't see much of you down here in the infirmary. Do we no I'm pretty healthy specimen. I guess I'll say you are How do you keep yourself so fit?

I've been wanting you to meet my husband hot dog Watch that thermometer Oh, I'm terribly sorry at the word husband.

Oh, I'm certainly flies What should I do just sit perfectly still he may not see you Well, miss brook close the door behind you please mr. Conklin.

I must request that you don't leave the premises now I'd better close this door What's that? Well, you see if you've never had the measles before you might have contracted them just now You mean miss brooks might have given me the measles. It's entirely possible mr. Conklin She wouldn't dare Mr. Boynton's right after all measles are contagious. You wouldn't want to start a panic in the streets There's no reason for any panic. The good fellows are waiting for me with the gold pocket watch I want that watch and I mean to get it now. No one knows that I've been in this room except the three of us I'm glad he doesn't hold my mortgage Now look mr. Conklin just to get a little gold watch you wouldn't want your fellow good fellows to get the measles from you Boynton no one has ever gotten anything from me. You can say that again I'm sorry, mr. Conklin in the interest of civic welfare. I can't allow you to leave this house and expose the community to measles old man How would you like a brand new bunsen burner for your biology laboratory? Careful mr. Boynton. He sounds like he's edging toward the door. Yes, sir. A nice new bunsen burner Sorry mr. Conklin. I advise you not to try to leave here until He got away.

Conklin? We don't have measles after all now She tells me when it's 10 minutes past my gold watch. Well, if it wasn't measles, what did I have? Probably just a little allergy rash. Are you allergic to any particular foods only strawberries? Strawberries that's what I put in with your popsies this morning Then that was it just a little temporary strawberry rash Did you hear that mr. Conklin? All we had was a little temporary strawberry rash. You're very generous I'm glad I'm glad you came to the infirmary though, mr. Brooks an ounce of prevention, you know Outs of prevention.
