Lum and Abner – Health Resort May Make Grandpap Rich. 440717

Investment in the new health resort looks promising, but when Lum tries to explain to Abner, an Old Edwards saying gets his friend confused. Will the gents be rich after all? What does it mean to make money, you need to have money? Will the gents need to steal money first?

Lum tries to explain ways to save money by cutting down on things like chewing tobacco. Is it possible to save $100 just in tobacco expense? Who is John Doe, and John Smith? The fictitious examples ring a bell in Abner’s memory, and he thinks he ran into that guy just recently. With all these varmints who owe Abner money, he’s ready to go hunting them down.

When grandpap enters to give the latest on BJ Webster, and the million dollar proposition for his land, it puts a stop to Abner. The wild ravings of tramps running through the land who owe him money come to a stop.
