Manasse Sons Investment Co., ltff LA WBENCE AVE., CHICAGO --- - - ---- Dr. Sherman Broadcasts for Maid or Floorwalker Motherhood, our good friends the scientists say, lends added purity and mellowness to the voice of the prima . donna. ] ust what effect, by the same token, the state of fatherhood would have upon the vocal accoutrement of the warbling male, had been me.rely a matter of conjecture until a few day5 ago when Ransom M. Sherman, he of that merry trio of gay radio roisterers known as Drs. Pratt, Sherman and Rudolph, was advised that he had quite suddenly become the bouncing father of a proud boy. Immediately there was a tran5formation. Even the celehrated piccolo assumed a more vibrant tone (we'll call it that), and that voice, oh, my. oh, my, you simply must tune in, my dears! But now there arises this problem. Dr. ShermaJ!, being a radio man, needs must keep laboriously to the task even through the wee sma' hours of the night. Hence the plaintive call for · assistance, ·.such as, in this instance, neither Dr. Pratt nor Rudolph are qualified to give. The e n I a r g e d Sherman family is sorely in need of a maid in that vine-clad cottage at 44 Brier road, Winnetka. If you're interested just call Winnetka: 2561. It has been suggested-in view of Dr. Sherman's unholy working hours, that ·a floorwalker would better serve the purpose. Well, now, that's an idea!
