It was quite a busy time Thanks to our beloved principal Osgood Conklin It was even busier for me than for the rest of the faculty for an addition to my school duties He had me typing reports at home in the evenings all week long I didn't have a moment to myself and worse than that. I didn't have a moment to mr. Boynton Friday morning at breakfast. I couldn't help bending my landlady's sympathetic ear So you see mrs. Davis not only have I spent the past four nights working for nothing But I haven't been able to spend any time with mr. Boynton. That's a shame Connie But why did you take on all that extra work? You told me yourself you volunteered to do it for mr. Conklin Of course, I volunteered. I'm too young to face a firing squad But it's not the work I mind there's something else that bothers me now look Connie I know that mr. Boynton is tall dark handsome charming. That's what bothers me It's where he's been while I've been busy mr. Boynton Why he's probably been at home every night twiddling his thumbs. You're wrong mrs. Davis He's been at miss n-rights three nights in a row and for all I know he's been twiddling her thumbs I don't think you have to worry about miss n-right Connie She may be a capable English teacher, but when it comes to looks she's no competition. I don't know about that She's quite an attractive person these days these foggy days. That is Well, I appreciate this pep talk mrs. Davis, but I'd better get ready to leave Walter Denton said he picked me up early Good Connie that'll give you a chance to plan your counterattack If you really believe that the enemy has secured a foothold in your territory You've got to get busy and storm the heights. You're so right Boynton Heights here. I come I'm glad you were prompt this morning. Walter. There's something I want to attend to before my first class I know and I hope he's in his biology lab when you get there I mean to pry into your personal life. Good. Let's keep it that way But I couldn't help noticing how little you and mr. Boynton have seen each other during the past week now listen I know it's because of all the extra work you've had to do I'll even Harriet Conklin our principal's own daughter told me she thought he's been driving you like a horse Oh, I don't know. I always winnie while I work And you've noticed something else too miss Enright hasn't let any grass grow under her feet Please Walter miss Enright's gardening problems. Don't interest me You know what I mean miss Brooks. She's had dates with mr. Boynton one night after another Walter, I know you're fond of me and mean to be helpful But if this intensely personal conversation doesn't stop, I'll get out and walk to school Gosh miss Brooks. I didn't mean to intrude on your privacy But it just happens that I have a wonderful plan to get mr. Boynton out of miss Enright's clutches once and for all You want to hear it miss Brooks? How can I help it? I'm not gonna get out and walk to school Oh The scheme is very simple We just fight fire with fire for the past three nights mr. Boynton has had dinner at miss Enright's place Everybody knows that what does she live in the television studio? She'll stop the flow. Sorry Obviously mr. Boynton keeps coming back there because he gets some good food and the price is right Hence the old saying is proved again. The way to a man's heart is through his stomach Well, that may be one of the better routes walter, but how do we interrupt miss Enright's regularly scheduled trips? That's where the fighting fire with fire comes in please walter burning down a fellow teacher is arson No, you don't burn her down You simply tap the same source that she uses for tempting recipes then you invite mr. Boynton to your lair Place What is her source of recipes mr. Dugan's domestic science class the girl's learning to cook at the best recipes you've ever seen And miss Enright borrows them sure after school She takes them right off the bullet and board miss Dugan's room and they print new ones every day and harry It tells me they're so simply written that a sub moron could follow the instructions Thanks walter I didn't mean it that way miss Brooks, but I know you haven't had much experience cooking and I'm right walter Mrs. Davis does all our cooking harry. It's gonna meet us at school this morning and take you into the domestic science class For a little brush up and then you invite mr. Boynton to dinner tonight and let nature take its course Here we are you get out miss Brooks and I'll find a place to park all right walter Oh, I keep forgetting you've got tin slats where the doors should be give me a hand will you oh sure miss Brooks There you go Oh the corrugated tin looks nice instead of doors doesn't it I got the idea from the new Hudson the new Hudson Yeah, this is the car you stepped down out of Hi miss Brooks walter hi harry uh take our charging tow. I'll just be a couple of minutes. Okay walter see you later Come on miss Brooks. Let's go in all right harry it you seem to be the doctor You just leave this thing to us miss Brooks. We'll have that certain party eating out of your hand in no time If I break any more dishes at home, he'll have to Now here's our plan miss Brooks. Mr. Boynton's favorite dish is boston stew boston stew How do you know miss enright pumped in for it yesterday seems like a lot of trouble to go to Now miss enright suggested this one to get the best possible recipe for boston stew And put it on the bulletin board sometime today Then miss enright will stop by and excuse me harry it. I think I'll drop into the domestic science room for a minute I knew you'd catch on I've got to stop by daddy's office, but I'll join you in a little while We've still got some time to brush you up on some fundamentals. All right harry it Well, if it isn't miss Brooks miss enright, what brings you to the domestic science room darling Oh, I've always been domestic only nowadays you've got to make a science out of it I've said it once I've said it a dozen times the way to a man's heart is through his stomach By now that should seem like the old ox road I suppose you're referring to my constant dinner companion of the past week Yes, I am while I was home alone working overtime you were home with mr. Boynton working overtime And I don't think it's fair miss enright Oh fair in love and war darling. You're just loaded with goodies today, aren't you After all if mr. Boynton likes good food prepared with loving care Who's to prevent him from getting it if I may borrow one of your best used cliches two can play at that game I'm going to prepare a dinner for mr. Boynton that he'll never forget you Oh, darling, you're not the type think of the time and money you spend in a beauty parlor to make yourself fairly presentable Havoc with your fragile charms you don't say Well for your information miss enright food can be cooked just as well on a pretty modern range as it can on an old potbellied stove Yet the girdle fits wear it Steve Arden will continue in just a moment, but first here is verne smith No other dentifers offers proof of such results proof that colgate dental cream helps stop tooth decay before it starts Two years research at leading universities using colgate dental cream hundreds of case histories Makes this the most conclusive proof in all dentifers history on tooth decay Conclusive proof that when teeth are brushed with colgates right after eating colgate dental cream helps stop tooth decay before it starts Yes, the toothpaste you use to clean your breath while you clean your teeth now offers a safe proved way to reduce tooth decay Modern science shows decay is caused by mouth acids, which are at their worst right after eating Brushing teeth with colgates as directed helps remove acids before they harm enamel Colgate dental cream has been proved to contain all the necessary ingredients Including an exclusive patented ingredient for effective daily dental care get colgate dental cream today Big economy size only 59 cents always use colgate dental cream to clean your breath while you clean your teeth and Help stop tooth decay before it starts remember no other dentifers offers proof of such results Well when lunch period came I hastened toward the school cafeteria to invite mr. Boynton over for dinner As I passed the principal's office. However, the door opened and I heard mr. Conklin murmur Step into my office a moment miss brook. Aye. Aye, sir Sit down, please. Thank you. Since this is your lunch hour. I'll be brief I just want to tell you that I appreciate your getting out that typing during this past week Oh, you're welcome. Mr. Conklin. Well, see you later one moment, please The spirit with which we tackled a difficult task was most admirable In fact, as I watched your fingers flying over the keys putting in carbon paper second sheets making erasures Oiling and cleaning the machine then washing up and starting all over again I realized that to me this wasn't work at all To you it wasn't No, indeed it was actually well fun Now there's another report. I must have typed about 30 pages 30 pages. Yes. Yes one long evening will do it Oh good for her those chinese secretaries are really marvelous You're home about seven tonight Mr. Conklin, don't you think you've been a little partial to me lately partial with these honorary jobs I mean, you know how carefully we teachers try to avoid making pets out of any students and Well, you've got to be doubly careful in your high office not to pet any teachers. I mean Look, I'd like to make a suggestion. Mine is an ever open mine miss brooks. I know Why don't you give some other teacher the opportunity of working with you tonight? Oh, for instance, well, it's not my place to mention names, but I'm sure miss enright would love the opportunity Miss enright, eh? She is a competent sort of an individual Even more competent than some I've used Yes. Yes, I I think I'll ask her about it right now. Oh, don't ask her now. Mr. Conklin Surprised her just drop over to her place tonight with the work under your arm But how can I be sure she'll be at home? She'll be at home. All right. If you'll just get there at seven o'clock sharp Mr. Conklin, I can promise you you'll find miss enright cooking with and without gas It's nice to be having lunch together again, isn't it mr. Boynham? Oh, it's more than nice miss brooks It is certainly is this goulash is terrific That's all right for cafeteria food, I guess but there's nothing like a home cooked meal Don't you think so? I sure do. I've been very fortunate that way during this past week I've had a couple of home cooked meals. You've had three but who counts What I'm so subtly suggesting mr. Boynham is that you have dinner at my place tonight for a change Your place? Yes, I thought I'd prepare dinner for two. Perhaps some special recipe or fondant I wish you'd asked me sooner miss brooks. I've promised to have dinner with miss enright tonight. Not again Yeah, not again Walter, how long have you been eavesdropping behind that history book? Oh, I haven't heard a thing miss brooks. I was just thinking about what to go and get at the steam table Well, you're excused any time water. Oh, thanks, mr. Boynham But all I can say is anybody that had eaten dinner with miss enright instead of a certain other english teacher must have some of his marbles missing Walter I can't understand his attitude I guess he just doesn't like miss enright. I can understand his attitude Look mr. Boynham, I happen to know that miss enright will be extremely busy this evening Mr. Conklin's bringing her a report to type. Mr. Conklin, are you sure? It was the least he could do But don't worry about your dinner engagement. Mr. Boynham, all you have to do is transfer your appetite to my table Well, if miss enright is going to be busy, I guess I could accept your invitation That date somewhere You're too gracious Is it a date? Oh, it's a date, but miss brooks. Did I understand you to say you were going to cook the dinner? Certainly That's strange. I never thought you knew anything about cooking. Oh, you'd be surprised. I know some very strange things about cooking Brings you to the domestic science room. You'll see Harriet. I'm glad the others have all gone What is it walter? What did you put on the class bulletin board? It's a recipe for boston stew. I printed it myself You printed it? Sure. I got the idea when I heard mr. Boynton say he was having dinner with miss enright tonight But walter, you don't know anything about boston stew. What ingredients did you use in the recipe? Believe me Harriet, what I printed in this recipe would be banned in boston Golly, it's not poisonous, is it? Of course not. Just pleasantly sickening Now we better get out of here before ol enright comes in boy This will teach you to try and take up all mr. Boynton's time just because miss brooks is busy I guess everybody's gone home Uh-oh, what's this on the bulletin board recipe for boston stew? Now, that's what I call a coincidence come to conny, baby Mr. Boynton should be here soon. Mrs. Davis. How is the boston stew coming along? All right conny, but there's so many strange ingredients I must have 15 things cooking in four different pots How does it look to you? Well, frankly mrs. Davis it looks like the stuff they pulled the big mo out of But it must be a good recipe or it wouldn't have been tacked on the bulletin board Now then did you saute the codfish balls in beef gravy? And baste the frankfurters with molasses? I did conny and did you stuff the olives with shredded wheat before frying them? I'm just bringing the horseradish and turnip greens to a slow boil The main part of the recipe Wait a minute. I'll read it for you Under a low flame gently stir codfish balls in shallow pan while adding one cup popcorn And winter green lifesavers Cups peanut brittle Garnish with diced carrots and allow to simmer in one bottle of warm coca-cola Oh, it was very nice of you to help me with this cooking mrs. Davis, but remember now it's our secret Of course dear as far as mr. Boynton is concerned your loving hands alone prepare this masterpiece Now I'll just eat my coat and be running along conny. I'm having dinner at my brother victor's house You told me that before mrs. Davis. What time are you doing victors six o'clock? What time is it now conny six thirty then I better hurry. I wouldn't want to be late Just birthday today, you know you told me that before too really I am getting absentminded Now where did I put his present? Oh, here it is on the cupboard shelf Six nice golf balls. See yes, they're very pretty Wait a minute mrs. Davis. There are only five golf balls here. Oh, that's all right victor never plays golf anyway Well, I'll be going now dear just let the boston stew simmer for another few minutes and then Turn off the gas. I may not have to turn off the gas. This stuff looks strong enough to blow it out Oh, that must be mr. Boynton now I'll just slip out this back door and be on my way lots of luck with the dinner dear Thanks again, mrs. Davis wish your brother a happy birthday for me. I will good night Good evening, mrs. Brooks. Welcome mr. Boynton. Let me put your umbrella in the closet This is mrs. Enright Sorry, they both have the same type frame Come in I suppose thank you dotting Give me your coat mr. Boynton. I'll hang it up for you. Oh, thank you. Here's my coat dear. Just throw it over that chair Your hospitality is overwhelming. You see mrs. Brooks I took the liberty of bringing mrs. Enright along for dinner because we did have a prior date and she didn't have anything else to do But what about mr. Conklin? Well, fortunately he phoned me about that typing assignment you arranged for me But I told him that as much as I'd love to help him I couldn't because of my sore finger. What's our finger the one that got better as soon as I phoned mr. Boynton But now that we're here, I don't see why we can't have a fairly jolly dinner party Oh, I'll bet you've got a swell dinner ready What what's that? I smell is it coming from the kitchen? I wouldn't be surprised if it was running from the kitchen Well, I guess I'll have to set another place at the table don't you lift a finger darling I'll set my own place and pitch right in like a good little sport We girls have to stick together, you know I'm stuck with you. All right Well, I'm going into the kitchen if I may and help carry things out when they're ready. All right, mr. Boynton Oh, I'll answer the door. You just go on back to the kitchen. Don't worry about me, mr. Brooks. I'm pretty handy around the house Yeah, the wrong house Walter hi, mr. Brooks. I knew you were gonna be all alone tonight So I got permission for my folks to eat with you. Well, can I come in? Why not? Although about my being alone I've got a story to tell you that'll really cheer you up. I can use it come into the dining room Walter, we're about ready to start as well Of course, I've got a date with Harriet tonight. So I'll have to go right after dinner But I want you to hear the rib. I pull this afternoon If it isn't one of my favorite pupils, how are you, Walter? Miss Enright, but I Didn't you expect me either? We're all being surprised tonight, aren't we? Well, I put everything in this big plate. I miss Brooks. Oh, hello, Walter. Oh, hello, mr. Boynton What are you doing here? I was invited. So was Walter. We're all invited Now let's sit down and get this over with uh start eating shall we?

This is food that's fit for a king Yeah, I'll try one of these round things first This is kind of slippery. Look out, Walter. It's rolling off your plate Caught it on the fourth bound. Okay. This is a pretty strange kind of food. It says spalding crow flight on it Spalding crow flight? Don't give it another thought. Victor never plays golf anywhere What kind of a dish is this miss Brooks? Oh, can't you tell? This is Boston stew Well sure anybody knows that you can tell at a glance that this is good old Boston stew So that's why the recipe wasn't on the bulletin board in the domestic science room You took it miss Brooks. Why not first come first served. I always say Now let's dig in shall we have it miss Brooks. You better start eating walter Remember what you told me you've got to go right after dinner. I know but this isn't the way I want to go For a minute. Come on into the kitchen. Hey, what is it walter? What's the trouble that recipe for Boston stew? That didn't come from the domestic science teacher I printed that myself you sure that was the rib. I started to tell you about I thought mr. Boynton was gonna have dinner with miss inright. So I wanted to fix her wagon I just put down everything I could think of in that recipe. Oh, this is terrible. I've got to stop. Yeah, you better I'm gonna take a powder out the back way if miss inright finds out about this She'll kill me and if she doesn't it's my turn tomorrow Oh Listen folks don't touch that Where's miss inright? The strangest thing happened miss Brooks. She took one spoonful of the stew and got the most peculiar look on her face Then she excused herself and ran out the front door. I don't know what got into her. I do Mr. Boynton, please she never acted that rudely before I can't understand. Well, never mind that now I hope you didn't taste that stew Tasted well, I've eaten two plates of it. Oh, it's delicious miss Brooks.
