Horlicks: The opening commercial is snipped, and extended theme music is played.
The new body for the rolling store is promised to be ready in a few days. Today, Grandpap and Abner discuss their expectations of taking the store on the road to other towns. Grandpap fears the new body may be too wide for the roads, but Abner defends the design, noting it needs to be that roomy to stand up inside and hold all the fixtures.
Lum enters with exciting news: Snake Hogan has changed his mind and wants to accept their previous offer on the store! Lum also shares some listener letters featuring creative ideas for the new store’s name. Just as Abner is about to make another announcement over the party line, Squire arrives with his latest business proposal. Will it be about the silver mine? Will it be about the new rolling store? It turns out to be a little of both, but Lum and Abner want no involvement from Squire.
The closing commercial is snipped, and goes right into theme music.
PS: Watch out for that Squire, if he is interested enought to want a piece of the pie you can bet on two things. It’s a good idea that’s sure to succeed, and it won’t last long because Squire won’t rest until he has messed it up.
