- Oh, Harriet, I
was looking for you.

I have a very nice telegram I
think you'd be interested in.

- Oh?

- It's from a lady
who wants to know

why you don't sing anymore.

- Oh no, you don't.

My singing days are over.

- Oh, go on.

Let's see you try.

- Try Listerine.

Buy Listerine.

Keep breath fresh and
clean with Listerine.

- Hey, that's fine.

- Listerine antiseptic,

America's favorite family

comedy, "The Adventures
of Ozzie and Harriet,"

starring the entire
Nelson family.

Here is Ozzie who plays
the part of Ozzie Nelson.

And of course, his lovely wife
Harriet as Harriet Nelson.

The older of the Nelson boys,
David, appears as David Nelson.

And his younger brother,
the irrepressible Ricky,

played by Ricky Nelson.

The Nelson's next
door neighbor, Thorny,

is played by Don DeFore.

- Go ahead, Ricky.
Ask him.

- You ask him.

He's your father.

- He's your father, too.

You ask him.

- What's the matter?

You afraid or something?

- What's the big
consultation all about?

- We want to ask
you a question, Pop.

- Well, here I am.

Go ahead.

- We were just wondering, can
we to the movies this afternoon?

- Well, sure.

Why not?

- Gee, thanks, Pop.

Now ask him the rest, David.

- Go ahead, Dave.

- Well, it's the funniest thing.

We don't seem to have
any allowance left.

Isn't that the funniest thing?

- Oh, where did
your allowance go?

- I don't know, Pop.

- Mine went to Mr. Schulz
at the ice cream store.

- Well, if you guys spent
your allowance, you spent it

and I'm sorry.

- Gee, we're very sorry, too.

- We thought maybe we could
have a little advance.

- What's this about an advance?

- Oh, it seems the boys have
gone through their allowances

already.

- Well, you just got them
day before yesterday.

What happened?
- I don't know, Mom.

- We're just big
spenders, I guess.

- All well and good, but
I think it's about time

you guys learned to
appreciate the value of money.

- Oh, we do, Pop.

- Well, evidently Ricky doesn't.

- Sure I do, Pop.

You can't buy
anything without it.

- Not exactly what
I had in mind.

I think if you guys had to earn
your own money you wouldn't

be in such a hurry to spend it.

- Maybe we could get
jobs after school.

- Well, no, that
isn't necessary.

If you guys want
to earn some money,

there are plenty of jobs you can
do right around the house here.

Make things a little
easier for your mother.

- Sounds very
interesting to me, dear.

- Me too, Pop.

- How about you, Rick?

- I'd rather hear
more of the details.

- I haven't figured
out any details yet.

Tell you what I'll
do, though, I'll

write down a whole list
of household chores

you guys can do.

That is, if your mother doesn't
mind having her work made

a little easier.
Where are you, Harriet?

- I'm right here and
it sounds fine to me.

I brought you a
book and a pencil.

- Oh, fine.

- When do we get paid?

- You'll get paid.

I'm going to devise
a point system.

For every job you do you'll
get a certain number of points.

- What are the points for, Pop?

- Well, for instance, if you
help your mother clear off

the table, that would
be, say, 5 points

and you guys would get
paid a penny a point.

- That sounds like
a good idea to me.

There's only one thing, though.

Suppose the boys get
lazy and decide they've

made enough for one week?

- Well, then we
could use a system

we used at Boy Scout camp.

We could give them demerits.

- What are those?

- Well, if you don't do a
job, that counts against you.

- I thought it sounded too good.

- It's fair, Ricky.

- Like what, Pop?

- Well, for instance,
suppose you come to the table

without washing your hands,
that would account points

against you, and at
the end of the week

those points would be
deducted from the point you

earned for doing various jobs.

- Heck, I'll wind up
with minus points.

- You just have to remember to
wash your hands before coming

to the table, that's all.

- I do, Mom.

There must be something
wrong with my hands.

I just can't seem
to get them clean.

- Well, David seems
to manage all right.

- Oh, yeah, Mom,
but he uses soap.

- I think we can work this out
very equitably at the same time

save your mother a lot of work.

- How can we earn
the points, Pop?

- Oh, there'll be various things
you can do around the house.

I'll make out a whole list
of things and the points

you get for each thing you do.

- We'll be rich in no time, boy.

- Better not count your
chickens before they're hatched.

- Chickens?

Heck, I thought we were
going to get money.

- Well, sure you
are, but your father

doesn't want you to have it all
spent before you've earned it.

- I tell you what I'll do.

I'll take this in the
other room and I'll

figure out the whole deal.

The jobs you do and how
many points for each job.

- Just a minute.

- Hi.

- Well, hi, Barb.
Come on in.

- Well, I just dropped
by for a minute.

I was in the neighborhood
and I thought

I'd try to coax you to come to
the PTA meeting this Wednesday.

- Well, fine.

Come on in and sit down.

I'm going to surprise you.

I think I can probably
make it this week.

- Oh, that's wonderful, Harriet.

You haven't been to
a meeting in ages.

Everybody's been
asking about you.

- Oh, thank you.

Well, I think I'm going to have
a little extra time from now

on.

- Oh, is Ozzie going away
on a trip or something?

- No, but the boys wanted a
little extra spending money

so Ozzie's worked out
a system for them.

- Well, I didn't even know
Ozzie played the horses.

- He doesn't.

This is a household
merit system so the boys

can take over a few of
my daily chores for me.

- Oh.
Well, how does the system work?

- Well, he's made up this list
of things for the boys to do

and they get a certain number
of points for each job.

- Oh, that sounds interesting.
May I see it?

- Mm-hmm.

I haven't even
seen it myself yet.

- Mowing the lawn, 25 points.

Carrying out the
trash cans, 10 points.

My goodness, Harriet,
do you mow the lawn

and carry out the trash cans?
- Oh, no.

Ozzie does that.

- That's what I thought.

Wash the car, 20 points.

- Ozzie usually does that, too.

- Hey, wait a minute, Barbara.

Cleaning out the garage,
painting the screens,

repairing the workbench.

- Was something wrong?

- Oh no.

No, it's a beautiful
list as far as it goes.

It's just that by a
strange coincidence

all these things are jobs
that Ozzie always does.

- Oh, my goodness, Harriet.

You've got lots of
pages in that book.

Fill them up with a few jobs
you'd like to get out of.

- By a strange
coincidence, that's

exactly what I had in mind.

- Well, boys, I've got
the list all made out

with your various duties.

So, Harriet, I'd like you
to take a look at this, too.

- Oh, I'm very interested, dear.

- See, I've got this
little book marked off

into days and at the end of the
week is a space for the credits

that the boys have earned.

See, and right in this
column is the total

so they can see at a glance
just where they stand.

- May I look at the
book for a minute?

- Yeah, sure.

- Oh, do you mind if I
make a few suggestions?

I'd like add a few things.
- No, no, no.

Go right ahead.
I'll write them down.

- All right.
Let's see.

I think the boys could get
credit for making their beds

and cleaning up their room.

Putting towels away.

Setting the table.

- Oh, Harriet.

We don't want to make
sissies out of them.

- Well, they do all
those things at camp.

Soldiers do them.
Sailors.

- Oh, OK.

I'll put them down.

- Let me see.

What else?

Let me look at that.

You've got the boys washing the
car, carrying out the trash,

mowing the lawn.

For goodness sake's, dear,
you've left yourself out.

- Oh, well, naturally.

- Well, I don't think
that's fair to you.

You ought to get paid
the same as the boys.

- Well, but I was
going to get out of--

I mean, I want to let the
boys enjoy themselves.

- We don't mind, Pop.

- Heck no.

- Hey, I have an idea.

Why don't you do the
outside chores, and that'll

leave the boys free
to help me with all

the bothersome little things?

- But Harriet, this
changes the whole plan.

- Oh no, dear.

Now let's figure this thing out.

A man is paid according
to his ability to produce.

- Yeah.

- Therefore, you
should definitely

be paid more than the boys.

- Oh.

- Suppose we make
yours $1 a point.

- $1 a point.

Well, yes, yes.

That's not bad.

- And the man is taxed
according to his ability to pay.

- Uh-oh.

- Therefore, you should
be fined $1 a demerit.

- Well, now, I don't want to be
shown any favoritism, Harriet.

If the boys are only
paid a penny a point then

I should only be
paid a penny a point.

- Oh no, dear.

That wouldn't be fair.

- It's OK, Harriet.

And if the boys are only
fined a penny a demerit,

then I'm willing to go
along with that, too.

- I want to get $1 a point.

- Same here.

- Well, OK, if
that's the decision.

Then I'll get paid
$1 a point and I'll

be fined a penny a demerit.

- Oh, no.

You get paid and
fined the same amount.

- Harriet, maybe you'd
like to take over the book.

- Oh, thank you, dear.

- Let's see now.

For carrying out the trash
you ought to get 10 points.

For washing the car, 20 points.

For helping me carry out
the dinner dishes, 5 points.

Well, for goodness sake's,
for those three things

you get paid $5.

Isn't that wonderful?

- No, that's marvelous.

Who pays me?

- You pay yourself.

- I'm afraid we better
get somebody cheaper.

I can't afford me.

- I figured so.

- Oh no, you know I
hate to owe people money

and you know how tough
I am about getting

paid the money that's owed me.

- Oh, I think you've
hit on a wonderful idea.

- Oh, thank you.

- Certainly will
get things done.

Beds made, car washed.

- Car washed?

Who said anything
about washing the car?

It doesn't need washing.

- I think you better
wash it tomorrow.

Besides, I have several
other things you can do.

You'll be earning
lots of points.

- Harriet, don't go to
any trouble on my account.

- Oh, it's no trouble at all.

I have lots of
things I want done.

- I've really created
something here.

- Well, you'll be having quite
a busy day tomorrow, dear,

so why don't you go downstairs
and read your paper and relax?

- Well, no thanks.

I'm more in a book reading mood.

- I'll get it for you, Pop.

What book do you want to read?

- No, the book is
downstairs, David.

Don't bother.

It's a book I feel a peculiar
kinship for at the moment.

- What book is that, Pop?

- Well, it's all about a man
who had a brilliant idea.

- Gee, just like you, Pop.

- Yes, I'm struck
by the similarity.

- What was his name?

- Frankenstein.

- Ozzie and Harriet we'll
be back in just a moment.

- Hi, Oz.

- Oh, hello, Thorny.

- What's the matter with David?
- Why?

- I just saw him dashing off
down the street with your suit

on his arms.

- Oh, he's just trying to
earn a little extra money.

- Yeah?

Well, I bet he doesn't
get more than $5 for it.

- He's not trying to sell it.

He just took it down
to the cleaners for me.

That should give
him about 10 points.

- What do you mean 10 points?

- Well, see, I worked out a
little system for the boys.

They do little household
chores and they

get so many points
for each job and then

I pay them a penny a point.

It's a good deal.

- It sounds to me like
you've figured out

a cheap way to get them to do
all the work around the house.

- No, no, no, no.

They just do the light stuff.

I do all the heavy work.

- Well, exactly what do
you consider heavy work?

Folding the napkins,
removing the rubber

band from the morning paper?

- I mean real heavy stuff like
carrying out those big trash

cans or polishing the car,
you know, stuff like that.

- Oh, yeah, yeah.

That is tough work.

- Oh, this is terrible, Thorny.

- What's the matter?

- Well, I was supposed to carry
out the trash cans last night

and I forgot all about it.

- Well, you were probably
so busy washing the car

it just slipped your mind.

- Yes, that's a good
excuse but why did I

forget to wash the car?

- You mean you didn't
do that either?

- I forgot all about it.

Wow.

It's $30.

- Now, wait a minute, Oz.

You mean to tell me you get
$30 for not washing the car?

Where do I apply?

- No, no, no, no.

It's a demerit system as well
as a merit system, you see.

Oh, boy.

Well, how about helping me
carry out these trash cans?

How many points do I get?

Now what's the matter?

- For goodness sake's.

Well, somebody evidently
carried them out for me.

There they are right
out there by the curb.

- Well, how do you like that?

- Gee, that's strange.

Well, I better get to
work polishing the car.

How about giving me
a hand with that?

- Now, wait a minute, Oz.

I agreed to help you
take the trash cans out.

Washing cars is
just out of my line.

I'll tell you what I'll do.

I'll compromise.

I'll come over and watch you.

- Well, that's mighty
nice of you, Thorny.

Just don't strain yourself.

- Hey, wait a minute, Oz.

This car has already
been polished.

I've never seen it
look so spic and span.

- Well, what the heck
is going on around here?

- Wait, Oz.

I think you've been
working too hard.

You better take it easy.
You're going to crack up.

- Thorny, I didn't
polish this car

and I didn't carry
out those trash cans.

How about this?

David and Ricky have been
doing their jobs and mine, too.

- Are you complaining?

- Well, yes, Thorny.

I mean, I want to
do my own work.

I was supposed to set
an example for the boys.

- Well, I think you're setting
a fine example for them.

You're sure setting one for me.

Just watching you
I've learned how

to become a very successful bum.

- Thorny, don't rub it in.

Gee, I better hunt up
a few chores I can do.

- Why don't you come
over and polish my car?

- No, no thanks.

There's plenty I can do
right around my own house.

Holy smokes.

I'm supposed to
be in the kitchen

right now helping Harriet
polish the silver.

- Boy, you're sure
batting 1,000 today.

- Right away before
the kids do that, too.

- Oh, there you are.

I bet you thought I'd
forgotten I was supposed

to help you with the silver.

- Yes, I did.

- Well, I didn't forget.

I must admit it slipped
my mind temporarily

but then it came
to me like a flash.

Well, where do we start?

- Well, thank you, dear,
but I just finished.

- Well, I'll help you
to put it away then.

- Oh, no.
That's all right.

I'll put it away.

I know where everything goes.

- Oh gee, I wish you'd waited
just a few more minutes.

It's only 3:30, Harriet.

- I'm sorry, dear.

I wanted to get
it out of the way

before I get dinner started.

- Oh, here, I'll put
this polish way for you.

I don't know how
this slipped my mind.

- Well, you can't be expected
to remember everything.

- Well, it's one of my jobs.

- Oh, I don't mind.

Whole thing's working
out beautifully isn't it?

- Well, the boys are
sure doing a good job.

- Well, you're doing
a good job, too.

- Oh, I'm in there pitching
but I'm not hitting very well.

- Don't worry about the silver.

Washing the car and
taking the trash cans out

must have been quite a job.

- Yeah, I imagine so.

- You look all worn out.

- Oh, no.

I'm not too tired.

- Well, you look tired.

Why don't you go and lie down
and rest for a while and I'll

call you when dinner's ready?

There's such a thing
as overwork, you know?

- No.

- Hi, Pop.

- Oh, hello, son.

- Don't you feel very good?

- Oh yeah, sure.

I was just resting my
eyes here for a moment.

- What have they been doing?

- Well, they've been trying
to keep up with you and David.

Don't you think you
two guys have been

overdoing this a little bit?

- What do you mean, Pop?

- Well, I mean, it's
nice to be ambitious,

but I think you guys have been
working a little too hard.

- We want to make a
lot of money, boy.

- Well, I know but carrying
out those big heavy trash cans

and washing the car
all in one morning.

That's a little too much.

- Gee, did we do that?

- Well, didn't you?

- How many points is it worth?

- About 30 points to you guys.

- 30 points.

Gee, I guess we did do it, Pop.

- Now wait a minute.

Did you and David carry out
the trash cans and wash the car

or didn't you?

- If you say we did,
I guess we did, Pop.

You're the boss.

- I know, but you don't want
to take credit for something

you didn't do now.

- I guess David did
do it by himself.

- Holy smokes.

That's too much work for David.

I mean, he'll overdo it.

30 points is no good to you if
you're lying in bed dead tired.

No fun in that.

- Well, you could
count your money.

- I hate to bother you, dear.

- Oh no, that's OK.
Hi, Dave.

- Hi, Pop.

- Well, if it isn't
too much trouble,

David would like to
figure out the points.

- So would I, Pop.

- Oh, gee.

Isn't it a little
early for that?

- No, I don't think so.

They've accumulated quite a few.

There's a little book over here
that's got everything listed.

- Oh, OK.

Here's a pencil, Pop.

- Well, you guys call
out the jobs you've done

and I'll mark them down.

OK, Dave, you go first.

- I took your brown
suit to be pressed.

- Pressing suit, 10 points.

- Now, Ricky?

- I took your brown
suit to be pressed.

- Wait a minute, David took
my brown suit to be pressed.

- Yeah, but he got it awful
wrinkled on the way back, Pop.

- OK, 10 points for Rick.

David?

- I helped Mom carry out
the breakfast dishes.

- Carrying out
dishes is 5 points.

Ricky?

- Well, Ozzie, you're
in this, too, dear.

- Oh, well, I
figured I'd tabulate

the boys' points first.

- Oh no, you go ahead, Pop.

- Well, let's see.

Oh, this morning at breakfast
I poured orange juice

in all the glasses.

If you recall, that's not worth
more than, say, one point,

I guess.

- Or let's make
it a half a point.

That would be 50 cents.

Well, 20 certs.

20 cents for dad.

Ricky?

- I made my bed.

- Making bed.

Let's see, 10 points.

David?

- I made my bed, too, Pop.

- 10 points.

- It's your turn again, dear.

- Oh, well, I went
out to the front door

and got the morning paper.

That's, say, 10 cents.

- Gee, the paper
only costs 7 cents.

- Well, let's make it
7 cents then shall we?

7 cents.

David?

- I emptied the waste baskets.

- Waste baskets.

3 points.

- I lit the match.

- 1 point.

- Gee, only one point?

That's pretty dangerous work Pa.

- Well, I know, but
it's also a lot of fun.

Besides, don't forget
we're not giving you

any demerits for fooling
around with matches.

- Your turn, Ozzie.

- My turn again.

- Mm-hmm.

- Well, let's see.

I took the rubber
band off the paper

when I brought it
in this morning.

- Well, isn't that part
of getting the paper?

- Part of getting the paper.

Yeah.

Let's see.

Oh, last night--
Last night Ricky

kind of used it as an
excuse to get up out of bed.

I don't mind.

I used to do the same thing
when I was a little boy.

But he said he wanted a
glass of water you see.

So I got Ricky a glass of water.

10 cents.

- I drank it.

Five cents.

- Ricky, we don't get
points for drinking water.

- How much did we
get so far, Pop?

- Let me see.

David, you have 28
points and Rick has 26.

- Can we have the
cash right now?

- Oh, I guess so.

- I get 26 cents, Pop.

- Yeah.

25, 26.

- Thanks, Pop.

- There.

28, there you are.
- Thanks, Pop.

- OK, you earned it.

- Can we spend it
at the malt shop?

- You can spend it
any place you want.

It's your money.
- Come on, Ricky.

Open the door.

- How many points?

- Open the door, will you?

- OK.

See you later, Mom, Pop.

- Don't be gone too long, boys.

- We won't, Mom.

- The boys really did
all right, didn't they?

- I said the boys did
all right for themselves.

- For goodness sake, Ozzie.

Look, you didn't put down
carrying out the trash

and washing the car.

- Oh, well, David
didn't mention it.

- Well, David, what's
he got to do with it?

- Oh, well, I might
as well tell you.

Harriet, I forgot to
carry out the trash cans

and I forgot to
wash the car, too.

David did both of
those jobs for me.

- Oh, well, let's see, dear.

If you didn't do your
work, that's 30 demerits.

- No, no wait a minute.

You can't give demerits
for work that was done.

The only fair thing
is to give the points

to the person who did the job.

Just put down 30
points for David

and I'll give him the
30 cents later on.

- OK, if you think that's fair.

- Well, sure.

Wait a minute.

You're putting down the
30 points under Harriet.

- Well, naturally.

I did the work so
I got 30 points.

- You mean you polished
the car and you carried out

those heavy trash cans?

- Well, sure.

I wanted to have some fun, too.

- I thought I felt
calluses on your hands

when we shook hands
good night last night.

- I also polished
the silver for you.

That's 5 more points.

- OK, put down 35 cents.

- Oh no, dear,
don't you remember?

We grown-ups get $1 a point.

You owe me the
grand total of $35.

- $35?

This woman has a heart of stone.

- I'll get your
wallet for you, dear.

It's right here in
your coat, isn't it?

Oh, don't bother to get up.

- Are you kidding?

I don't believe I can get up.

- I'll admit, it is
quite a lot of money.

I'll make a deal with you.

I'll settle for $15.

- Well, I'm not exactly
in a bargaining position.

What can I do?

I'll accept your offer.

- Oh, there's a beautiful
hat at the Emporium.

$15 is just what it costs.

I saw it yesterday and
it's really lovely.

- OK, put it on, let
me take a look at it.

I haven't got it here.

- Oh, well, at least you
were honest enough not

to buy it until--

- It's hidden in
the hall closet.

- Harriet, you mean to say
this whole thing was a scheme

of yours just to get a new hat?

- Well, no, dear, of course not.

Don't you remember?

The whole thing was your idea.

- Well, yes, it was
my idea that the boys

earned their own money.

I'm just trying to figure
out where it detoured.

I guess you wouldn't exactly
call it a scheme, though,

would you?
- Of course not.

- In the first place, you
never scheme against me.

- Of course I don't.

- But you do play little
jokes on me occasionally

and this was a little $35 joke.

- $15.

- Oh, yes. $15.

Husband and wives are
always playing little jokes

on each other.

There's no harm in that.

- None at all.

- I mean, that's all
part of married life.

Playing little jokes on each
other and having fun like that.

You certainly couldn't
call that scheming.

- Well, I should say not.

- Oh, by the way,
dear, my back itches.

Would you mind
scratching it for me?

- Oh, well, certainly.

Where does it itch?

- Just a little above the knife.

- Ozzie and Harriet will
be back in just a moment.

- Oh, there you are.

I was looking for you.

- I was looking for you, too.

- How do you like it?

- How do I like what?

- My new hat.

- Well, maybe I need Polaroid
glasses or something.

Is it a 3D hat?

I can't see it.

- Oh, I forgot.

You can't see it from the front.

- Oh, yeah.

- It's a beanie, you like it?

- Oh yeah, that's very cute.

I think you should have gotten
it for half price, though.

It's only half a hat.

- Oh.

- Speaking of new things,
how do you like my new coat?

- Oh, that's very smart.

- It isn't like your hat.

You can appreciate this
from the front or the back.

- Oh, you stop
picking on my hat.

I think it's cute.

- Oh, yeah, I do, too.

It's a funny thing,
the boys usually don't

make much comment
about my new clothes

but they really like this coat.

In fact, Ricky got so
enthused he slapped me

on the back a couple of times.

- How about that.

- Yeah, I hate the same immodest
but I took a little walk

around the block
and golly you should

have seen all the people staring
after me, looking at the coat.

It made quite a hit.

You like it, huh?

- Oh, it's very nice.
Yeah.

- See if you like
it from the back.

- Old fashioned girl
and her toothbrush.

Sweetheart, toothbrushes
have changed!

Today, no other brush
combines quality

by prophylactic and the modern
features of the new Pro 59.

More bristles, thinner
bristles, three times more

than old style brushes.

More thorough cleaning on teeth
and deep inside tooth crevices.

More gentle.

Pro 59 bristles are
ideal for massaging gums.

old, get the new.

The only toothbrush with these
modern features and quality

by prophylactic.

The new Pro 59.

Other styles at all counters.

Buy prophylactic.
