:17:02
That is nice of you. I think
I'll need all the help I can get.
:17:05
I hope you won't mind
waiting on last month's bill.
:17:09
I haven't received
my first allotment check yet,
:17:11
and I'm not
a very good manager.
:17:13
I know, everybody's
got problems these days.
:17:15
Now, you take me,
for instance.
:17:17
I'm trying to get enough
of everything for my customers.
:17:20
Would you believe it, Mrs. Hilton...
one of them had the nerve
:17:23
to ask me why I didn't
go into the black market.
:17:25
- Me, with my boy in the service.
- You don't mean Johnny?
:17:29
I wondered why
I haven't seen him lately.
:17:31
Yes, ma'am,
and he's a mighty fine boy.
:17:33
I've got a picture of him
in his uniform right here.
:17:38
I'd love to see him.
:17:40
You're very proud of him,
aren't you?
:17:43
Yes, ma'am.
:17:44
There are two things that Johnny
always wanted to be.
:17:48
One of them
was to be an aviator.
:17:50
And what is Johnny's
other ambition, Mr. Mahoney?
:17:53
Well, you wouldn't
be believin' this maybe,
:17:55
but it's advertising.
Advertising.
:17:57
My Johnny always wanted
to be an advertising man.
:18:02
Well, I'm sure he'll be
very successful at it.
:18:06
You really think that,
do you, ma'am?
:18:08
Yes, I do.
:18:12
You do?
:18:14
Well, I guess I'd better
be running along.
:18:16
- Good-bye, Mrs. Hilton.
- Good-bye.
:18:19
Mr. Mahoney.
:18:22
I think Mr. Hilton
might like to help Johnny
:18:25
get into the advertising business
when the war's over.
:18:27
Now, that is an idea.
It wouldn't have occurred to me.
:18:31
Mr. Hilton is in the advertising
business, isn't he?
:18:34
And I'm sure he'd be delighted.
:18:36
We've always thought Johnny
was a fine, intelligent boy.
:18:38
That he is, ma'am.
That and a whole lot more.
:18:41
And you've really given us
something to look forward to...
:18:43
me and Johnny and the missus.
:18:46
It was very nice of you to come
and visit with me this way.
:18:49
Not at all, ma'am.
Not at all.
