Hiya Corky, did'ja see this week's episode of “Ace” down at the Bijou?

Boy, did I? Hey, it was swell! I was pretty sore though 'bout their razin' the price to 15 cents. I guess it's OK though 'cuz we all got a free box of crackerjacks at the door.

No kiddin'? I seen it on Wednesday with my pop. It was 15 cents for him, 10 cents for me. We didn't get no free candy though. I almost won free dishes for my ma though; my ticket was only 3 numbers off.
Anyways, didya see how Ace got out of it this time?

And how! They blow up the car an Ace gets a little punchy for a minute but they didn' even mess up his shirt too much.
Those Chinamen sure are dumb an’ boy, are they sneaky.

Say listen, those Chinamen will steal you blind if yur' not lookin'.

Yeah, those yellow lugs don't know nothin'. Anyways, you gonna go to the kid’s matinee with me n' Joey nex' Saturday? There's gonna be a Rough Rider movie with Buck Jones n' Tim McCoy an’ a Mickey Mouse color cartoon an' we'll find out how the kid gets out of that jar.

And how! Hey, maybe we can get Cathy to come too.

Gosh,what are you talkin' about Donny? No girls! You know the rules. Girls get mushy an' squeal an' all they wanna' do is girl stuff. You sweet on her or somethin'?

Me? Say, you can't say that. Take it back! Jeez’ Corky, I wuz only kiddin' anyways.

Okay, okay. Say lissen', I knew you wuz. Hey, we're pals, ain't we?

You bet! Okay, Saturday it is. I can hardly wait! They're gonna give the first hundred kids free fudgecicles.

Free fudgesicles!?! Boy, o' boy! Well, see ya in school Pal.

Don’t tell me about it. See ya in jail.
