 Coldgate dental cream to clean your breath while you clean your teeth and help stop tooth decay and Luster cream shampoo for soft blamorous carousal hair bring you our miss Brooke starring Eve Arden It's time once again for Eve Arden in another comedy episode of our miss Brooks written by Al Lewis Well, they say that absence makes the heart grow fonder And if that's the case Connie Brooks who teaches English at Madison High School should feel a bit more hopeful about her bashful Biologist Philip Boynton. Yes, mr. Boynton left town last Monday for a biologist convention upstate And by Friday I was confident that absence did make the heart grow fonder The only trouble was it was this little English teacher's heart, which was doing the growing fonder of Mrs. Davis my landlady was discussing the absent one with me at breakfast Friday morning Have you heard from mr. Boynton at all since he's left Connie? Oh, of course. Mrs. Davis I heard from him yesterday. He just poured his heart out to me really dear. What did he say lift up the sugar bowl his postcards underneath it? Let's see that Having wonderful time Glad I am here Then he says no more for now writer's cramp must have set in That's just his subtle way of informing me that he's too busy to write me a letter But he won't be gone too much longer Well, I think you're foolish to sit around and twiddle your thumbs while he is gone after all there are other fish in the sea Yes, but on my salary. It's a little tough to make the bait as attractive as it should be Although mr. Leblanc did ask me for a date last Monday evening mr. Leblanc the French teacher. That's right Why he's charming Connie and so handsome Did you accept of course not mrs. Davis? I just seen mr. Boynton off on the train Well the next time mr. Leblanc asked you to go out with him I think you should go why when I was your age if a man with his looks asked me out I jumped at the chance when I was your age. I'll jump too But I'll get another chance to go out with mr. Leblanc He's been very attentive all week In fact, he asked me to get to school early this morning so he could talk to me for a few minutes before class Oh, he did. Yes. I told Walter Denton about it yesterday, and he said he'd picked me up in plenty of time this morning That's what I like a kid who keeps his promises come in Walter. I left the latch off for him Hi, you miss Brooks mrs. Davis. Well breakfast isn't finished yet. I see not like it's going to be when you sit down Pull up a chair dear any news from mr. Boynton since yesterday's postcard. No, Walter He wasn't kidding when he said no more for now. Oh, well, he won't be lonesome not with mr. Leblanc around mr Leblanc that's the second time his name is popped up in the last five minutes. Did you say popped up Connie? Yes, why I knew there was something I'd forgotten I put two slices of bread and the toast master over an hour ago I'll be back as soon as I make you extra We'll be leaving soon mrs. Davis don't make too many or too few Now then Walter, what's all this about mr. Leblanc and me well if you ask me there's something pretty continental going on inside that Handsome head of his well he has been rather attentive since mr. Boynton left, but that could be common courtesy courtesy nothing that's continental I can tell by the way he talks to you miss Brooks the way he uses his native language What do you mean Walter mr. Leblanc talks to me only in English? He may talk to you in English, but he looks at you in French Well if he does I don't understand it But mr. Leblanc does lapse into his native tongue occasionally and just between us Walter I can't understand one word of it. You see when I went to school I studied much more Spanish than French for some reason. Oh, what was the reason a Spanish teacher named Jose Gonzalez Of course, I wouldn't want mr. Leblanc to think I didn't know what he was talking about Well, don't let that bother you miss Brooks Harriet Conklin's a wizard French She can interpret anything that you don't understand Of course, she's a little young to interpret the way mr. Leblanc looks at you I wish you'd stop auditioning your sinuses Walter I'm not trying to be fresh. You know that but both Harriet and myself feel that it's about time Mr. Boynton was made to feel that he shouldn't feel so sure of you. How does that go again? Don't you see when he comes back if there's a lot of buzz-buzz about how you went out with mr. Leblanc while he was gone Maybe mr. Boynton will leave the ranks of the walking dead and make his move Well, it has been tried before the plotting to capture ones made as an age-old story miss Brooks Why if they were truthful about it 95% of all the men ever born would have to say to their women You made me love you. I didn't want to do it from the picture Jolson sings again Of course, mr. Leblanc is an extremely attractive person sure he is and there's nothing to it miss Brooks All you got to remember when you see mr. Leblanc at school is the three little letters OUI OUI fine the next time mr. Leblanc asked me for a date this little piggy will go wee wee wee all the way home Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da do entree ah good morning miss Brooks I hope I do not interrupt something. Oh, not at all mr. Leblanc. I was just combing my cactus Pardon this little plant on my desk here one of my pupils gave it to me was quite a surprise the way he gave it to me, too He hid it on my chair Won't you sit down? Oh, merci mademoiselle. What did you want to talk to me about mr. Leblanc? Well miss Brooks beautiful miss Brooks For some time now. I felt that you are As I look on you miss Brooks, I feel that you're not only a lovely to look at person, but one who miss Brooks Are you listening to me? You lost me after beautiful I have I know that we have not spent too much time in the company of each that's very true However, what I wish to say is something that I do not too easily find the words to do it And so I have taken the liberty of writing it down in this note a note We it is written in my native language miss Brooks. This still comes to me faster than English You can read French of course of course then please do Yeah, let's see My share miss Brooks some assembler canoes and no Who they boom affair Well miss Brooks well from what I gather here, it's pretty obvious that I'll need some time to think this thing over Well as you say miss Brooks, I suggest we meet in the school cafeteria at lunchtime fine Then until we meet again Just serré contrôles les émotions je ne serai pas un petit gosse Oh, I don't know. I think the Dodgers still have a chance Our miss Brooks starring Eve Arden will continue in just a moment But first here is Vern Smith now proof that brushing teeth right after eating with Colgate Nantle cream helped stop Tooth decay before it starts continuous research hundreds of case histories Makes this the most conclusive proof and all data first research on tooth decay eminent dental authorities Supervised hundreds of college men and women for over two years One group always brushed their teeth with Colgate's right after eating the other followed their usual dental care The group using Colgate dental cream as directed using Colgate's Exclusively showed a startling reduction in average number of cavities far less tooth decay The other group developed new cavities at a much higher rate. No other data press offers proof of these results Modern research indicates decay is caused by mouth acids, which are at their worst after meals or snacks When you brush your teeth with Colgate's right after eating you help remove acids before they can harm enamel Yes, Colgate's contains all the necessary ingredients including an exclusive patented ingredient for effective daily dental care And remember Colgate's cleans your breath while it cleans your teeth Always use Colgate dental cream right after eating to help prevent new cavities help stop tooth decay before it starts Well when lunch period rolled around I hastened toward the cafeteria hoping to find Harriet Conklin So I could get a translation of mr. La Blanche's note as I passed the office of our beloved principal However, mr. Conklin stopped me with one of his typically warm and cordial greetings Miss Brooks Right I was just hurrying to lunch mr. Conklin. You usually are I just want a moment of your time I noticed this morning that mr. La Blanche stepped into your room for a few moments And although I've never been a hearty advocate of faculty fraternization in this instance I think it's splendid that La Blanche is making friends with someone. He's rather an aloof chair No alooper than some others. I know He's quite a nice person though. I'm sure he is but to get at the point miss Brooks I have a used car in my garage that mr. La Blanche said he wanted to buy a few days ago However, since that time he's been rather evasive Although I hate to part with the car It seems a shame not to consummate this deal once I've become adjusted to the idea The more so since I was convinced that I had mr. La Blanche on the hook interested What kind of a car is it mr. Conklin? It's sort of a composite miss Brooks studs motor I believe Quite old of course, but it'll make fine transportation runs like a charm. Then why do you want to sell it? I can't afford all the repair bills That is to say I bought a new used car about six months ago and the price they offered me on a trade-in was so ridiculous I decided to sell it privately. Oh Frankly, I was amazed at the rapidly declining interest in the studs automobile Hence I'm willing to part with it for a measly $50. I'd feel selfish about holding on to it I see what you mean, mr. Conklin Why should you let that beautiful car rot in your garage when some lucky fellow could be pushing it all over town? Miss Brooks, I am not a man to shilly-shally I'd take it as a personal favor if you encouraged mr. La Blanche to go through with this deal Oh, but mr. Conklin, I'm thanks for whatever efforts you put forth in this matter. Good day Good day, and thank you on a star's good Are you gonna have lunch with the fabulous Frenchman eventually Walter, but first I'd like Harriet Conklin to translate this note He gave me he says he writes better in his native language. No, huh? Oh, we're making progress. All right. Let's see it I've had three terms of French. You've had three terms of first-term French Please miss Brooks hurry it might be late and you don't want to let mr. La Blanche cool his heels in the cafeteria Do you why not eating lunch with hot heels is very uncomfortable? Now give me the note miss Brooks if it's not too tough. Maybe I can translate it Some may sample canons of vans Un bien amiti Sure, this is simple miss Brooks It merely says that he thinks you're wonderful and that he has long worshipped you from afar What and that now he cannot stay away another moment, but must have a date with you at once Well, I knew it miss Brooks. He's stuck on you now go on into that cafeteria and give him a quick wee I'll go as quick wee as I possibly can Now we're getting someplace wait a little mr. Boynton comes back Pardon me, Walter, but how long have you been standing here alone cackling? Oh, hi Harriet I just translated a French note that mr. La Blanche gave miss Brooks and I oh gosh I forgot to give her back the note no, but Walter you can hardly understand a word of French even after three terms Well, that's all right neither can miss Brooks She was in love with a Spanish teacher named Gonzalez when she was a kid That's why it was so easy for me to translate for her all I had to do is make a guess at it I guess sure. Oh, what would a Frenchman put in a note to a woman? It's got to be about l'amour to jure La Blanche is a romantic figure all right. I'll bet he writes a beautiful love letter here Let me read it Walter. Okay. Now. What does it say? It says dear miss Brooks as there is no other member of the faculty You can help me at this time. I must ask a favor Doesn't sound very romantic so far Quiet Walter Listen to this. I have promised to buy our principal's car, but due to a most mortifying shortage of finances I must borrow $50 immediately if I am to keep my word Can you lend it to me anxiously pull the blanche? How do you like that guy? He's not Warner. He's biting her I'm sorry to be late mr. La Blanche, but I had to catch up on a little reading I'll sit down mademoiselle as always. You look charming and now then about my notes. What is your answer? The answer? Oh by all means we you mean it. Of course How marvelous you are an angel a dream girl a dream girl. I'm also a luster cream girl But I don't see why you should get so excited about it after all under similar circumstances I've said yes before you know you have dozens of times You must be a teacher a long time to be able to act so generously well don't forget I am also a woman well You have said yes to me that is the main thing now. Tell me miss Brooks. Uh, when can I pick it up? That's a quaint figure of speech You can pick me up at 7 30 this evening. Oh, I was hoping I would not have to wait that long. Oh, you impetuous Frenchman Yes, I I suppose I am after all it takes a little while even to receive aid from the Marshall plan That's a good one You better think of something mighty fast Walter it was your meddling that got miss Brooks into this mess I know what Harriet and I know how embarrassed she'll be when she finds out that all mr. La Blanche wants is to borrow $50 from her Oh, I wish we could think of some way to get her out of it But daddy's been trying to unload that heap of his for six months, and he's never had a better offer Gee, it's after seven wait a minute Harriet say that again. It's after seven. Oh, not that the part about the better offer Never mind skip it Harriet if you'll excuse me now. I got to get to a phone I may not save miss Brooks any embarrassment, but I just gotta save her $50 You look absolutely lovely Connie, I'm sure mr. La Blanche will be enchanted with you from the moment you're right Oh, it's nice of you to say so mrs. Davis, and now if you don't mind I'll stay here in my room for the rest of the evening. Oh, I don't mind in fact I'll close the door for you Thanks dear have a nice time I'll be right there mr. La Blanche don't break your neck. It's not mr. La Blanche Well, mr. Conklin, this is an unexpected intrusion a pleasure Come in thank you Well, you are a super salesman miss Brooks. I am I don't know what you told me Blanche in the cafeteria today But it certainly nailed him down. He asked me to meet him here tonight to close the deal on that gel up that bargain I'm selling He asked you to meet him here. Oh now isn't that cute? He probably wants to take me for a ride. Did you bring it with you? Yes, I towed it over Now I've got the ownership papers right here and as soon as mr. La Blanche. Oh, I'll get it Welcome mr. La Blanche come on in. Oh good evening miss Brooks. Well alone at last a yes Yes, indeed. You'll be alone in no time. I'm a man that likes to do business fast here at the ownership papers La Blanche take them Oh, thank you, sir. But first I you're getting a great buy tonight. La Blanche isn't he miss Brooks? Oh a dilly thinker Just $50 for a car that's only been driven 129,000 careful miles By its original 12 owners Please mr. Conklin if you will wait one moment for me. I must speak with miss Brooks alone Will you come into the kitchen with me miss Brooks the kitchen but go ahead go ahead miss Brooks I'll wait right here in the living room. Probably needs a little more reassurance. Go to it. What am I a teacher or a used car dealer? Well, miss Brooks the time has come now we can get together, right in the kitchen I did not want to mention it in front of mr. Conklin But as I stated in my note miss Brooks, I will be very grateful if you will lend me the $50 immediately $50 Yes After you read my notes, that is the 50 you said we too. So that's what I said we too Where'd I get my hands on that walter dentin dentin? I don't understand. No neither did he him in his first term french Look mr. La Blanche, I'll try to break this to you as gently as possible about the $50 We no not exactly in french. What's the opposite of we? No, that's it. I long got it Miss Brooks you say no we we know But I assure mr. Conklin that the $50 Uh, oh, I see it all now miss Brooks You're joking No, I'm not But miss Brooks after our meeting in the cafeteria I I I thought I know you did but it was all a misunderstanding mr. La Blanche I'd lend you the money in a minute if I had it, but I haven't honestly. I haven't I'll show you what's in my bank I'll even let you hold it up to your ear and rattle it Well, naturally miss Brooks. I'm quite disappointed But if it is as you say all a misunderstanding, perhaps I better return these ownership papers to mr. Conklin The quicker the better after all the evening is young yet, which is more than I can say for the car Yes, yes, I understand perfectly. Goodbye, sir. Thank you Oh, oh, I took the liberty of answering your phone miss Brooks as it happened the call was for me I left word at home where I could be reached now that mr. La Blanche allow me to speak first, sir I I am certain that your car is every bit as wonderful just a moment Miss Brooks, would you step into the kitchen with me, please? Why not I sort of miss the old place Excuse us mr. La Blanche Miss Brooks now that I've already given La Blanche the ownership papers the minute he hands me $50 the deal is official You've got to help me talk him out of it talk him out of it. You mean you don't want that call I just received was from a mr. Horace Winthrop. He saw my car parked outside the house and he offered me $150 for it $150 he told me the minute he saw it he went out of his mind about it That boy needs shock treatments Now I realize you have a way with mr. La Blanche you can succeed in changing his mind hence a proposition If you can coax him out of buying my car, I'll split the hundred dollar profit with you Oh, but mr. Conklin has evidence of my good faith. I'm willing to pay you in advance I just happen to have the cash on me miss Brooks 20 40 50 Miss Brooks, there's $50 on top of that stove in cold cash What do you want me to do heat it? Don't spa miss Brooks. I promised I'd meet mr. Winthrop in 15 minutes If you don't act it may be too Pardon the intrusion mr. Conklin But I could have returned home if you would only let me say Brooks wishes to have a little chat with you my boy But sir, I'll wait for you in the living room Why won't he let me tell him I can't buy his car. He is only delaying my embarrassments. Mr. La Blanche There's not going to be any embarrassment. Hey you I don't understand. I Oh Now I do you and that sense of humor On the stove my 50 dollar.

Conklin had left. He's gone, isn't he? Yes, walter everybody's gone Good You see the only way I could stop mr. Leblanc from putting the bite on you for 50 dollars Was to make sure that mr.
