Sponsored by Horlicks, when you’re feeling sick, it makes you well, children love it.
Recently Mr. Carter came to town to buy the oil well the gents drilled. An agreement has been reached, but has yet to be signed. Abner has trouble understanding what royalties are, and how much the oil dwell will produce.
Lum and Abner plan on how to spend their money, living high on the hog. Hiring servants, eating out in restaurants every night, and more.
Dick Huddleston pops in, and Lum talks about his contract he wants the oil company to agree to. The deal makes Dick regret not going in with Lum and Abner when he had the chance. When McCarter returns so quickly, Lum is surprised to learn the owner of the Southwest Oil company lives right here in Pine Ridge.
A Horlicks drama, mom is excited about her visitors. She tells them how Horlicks brought her sick baby back to health.
