Horlicks: Not getting enough sleep? Just before going to bed, treat yourself to a hot glass of Horlicks. The flashlight promo is coming to an end.

Squire is organizing all sorts of campaign stunts, and Abner has been pulling ahead in the election results. His promises even have Dick Huttleston a little worried. Conversation turns to a big donation Abner gave to the library to promote his run for the presidency. Where did he get that much cash? I wonder if Squire is spending money that Abner doesn’t have?

As Lum and Abner talk about election progress, Abner gets confused about another of Lum’s figures of speech. One thing does come to light, the cash used for the library donation.

Carlton Bricker reminds listeners how to send for a flashlight, and where to buy a package of Horlicks.

Note: How could you not know by now? The flashlight giveaway is long over. Sorry, we only missed it by more than 70 years. But don’t worry, you can still leave me a comment. Not to mention supporting the podcast with my PayPal button.
