:09:02
Well, thas what people get,
:09:03
wasting good money to give her
dresses instead of insurance.
:09:06
Dresses thall last longer than she
will.
:09:08
All depends on what folks thinks is
important.
:09:11
But Papa says that...
- Thas right, Mr. Barker,
:09:13
it all depends on what folks
thinks is important.
:09:16
Oh, and how is Mr. Nolan? ls he
working or not working?
:09:19
Some tell me one thing, some another.
Of course, l don't listen.
:09:23
Mr. Nolan being a singing waiter,
Mr. Barker,
:09:25
and what you might call an
artist, his work don't come steady
:09:28
like other people.
:09:29
But l'm sure you'll remember when
you talk to folks
:09:31
that the Nolans have always paid
their insurance on the dot.
:09:34
Oh, you surely don't think l go
around spreading gossip
:09:36
about my clients, Mrs. Nolan
:09:37
Oh, sure not. And how's my mother,
Mr. Barker?
:09:40
ln the prime, Mrs. Nolan,
as fine as can be.
:09:43
And she says to tell you she'll be
over...
:09:45
oh, over tonight same as usual.
:09:48
And, l trust you're pleased with the
news about your sister?
:09:52
Well, just what news do you mean, Mr.
Barker?
:09:55
Oh, well she must be saving it to
surprise with tonight
:09:58
when the family's all here together.
:09:59
l'd take it kindly if you told me
what you mean.
:10:02
Well, l trot around, same as usual,
to collect her weekly dime
:10:06
and what do you think happens?
:10:07
Sell, sir, she gives me two dimes.
:10:10
Yes, sir, she's done it again.
:10:12
She's got herself a brand new
husband.
:10:15
Oh, no.
:10:16
Well, now, l suppose you mean about
her still being married.
:10:18
l don't mind saying, l had the same
thought myself.
:10:21
But, l'm sure it must be all right.
:10:22
She must have made some arrangement.
:10:24
l'm quite sure she did, Mr. Barker.
l'm sure that anything...
:10:27
Does she call this one Bill too?
:10:29
You children run along now and do
the marketing.
:10:31
Go on, take some money
from the cup...
:10:33
Oh, but Mom, l want to hear about...
:10:34
Take the money from the cup and get
a five cent soup bone off of Haslin.
:10:36
Don't get the chopped meat off him,
though.
:10:38
He grinds it behind closed doors,
and heaven only knows.
:10:41
Go to Werner's for the meat.
:10:42
Ask for round steak, chopped,
ten cents worth.
:10:44
And don't let him give it to you off
the plate.
:10:46
And ask him to chop it in.
:10:48
And then just at the last ask for a
piece of suet to fry it with.
:10:52
But he won't always do that, Mama.
:10:54
Tell him your Mama said.
And then go for the bread.
:10:56
ls Saturday, Mama, and...
:10:57
All right, ask for a nice pie,
not too crushed. Now, go on.
