From Hollywood, California, the Lux Radio Theater presents Errol Flynn, Brian Ahern, Jackie Cooper, and C. Aubrey Smith in Lives of a Bengal Lancer. Presents Hollywood. This is the thrilling story of the men who bring peace and order to a far-flung corner of India. Suggested by the book by Francis Yates Brown and filmed by Paramount, we stage Lives of a Bengal Lancer with Errol Flynn, Brian Ahern, C. Aubrey Smith, Jackie Cooper, and Douglas Dumbrough. In the acts, you'll hear General Hugh S. Johnson, former NRA administrator and now celebrated columnist of the Scripps-Howard newspapers. The music of the Lux Radio Theater is conducted by Louis Silvers. This program comes to you with the good wishes of the makers of Lux Flakes, those gentle, fast-desolving flakes millions of women use every day. It's easy to see why Lux is so popular. Just pour lukewarm water on a few of these feather-light flakes. You'll see them fluff up instantly into glorious suds. These rich, buoyant suds float out every trace of soil and perspiration and leave your things fresh and sweet and lovely-looking, too, because Lux is kind to colors and fabrics. These gentle Lux Flakes keep your things new-looking longer. They're the safe, thrifty care for stockings, underthings, dresses, blouses, and sweaters. Yes, for everything safe in water. And now, the producer of the Lux Radio Theater, ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Cecil B. DeMille. Greetings from Hollywood, ladies and gentlemen. The region of the Khyber Pass in the desolate mountains of northwest India is a land where time stands still. There at this moment, on Mounted Patrol, are some of the most extraordinary and superb cavalry the world has ever seen, the Bengal Lancers.  On one side of their saddles hangs a sword, on the other a rifle, while their fingers embrace the primitive but deadly bamboo lance, whose steel head has bred respect for peace and the Union Jack in the haunts of the ferocious Afridi tribesmen. This story is told tonight by four vigorous commentators, Errol Flynn, Brian Ahern, C. Aubrey Smith, and Jackie Cooper. With a background as adventurous as anything in fiction, Errol rides tonight as Lieutenant McGregor of the Bengal Lancers. Brian Ahern, pilot and aviation enthusiast, is seen shortly in the much talked of Howe Roach production, Captain Fury. We hear him as Lieutenant Forsythe. Back in 1888, in the Goldfields of South Africa, C. Aubrey Smith was pronounced dead of pneumonia. However, he had other ideas on the subject, and now in his 76th year is a player with the Hollywood Cricket Club and its president. Commander of the Order of the British Empire, this great character actor is with us tonight as Colonel Stone. And Jackie Cooper, who's been an actor for 11 of his 16 years, is Hollywood's most popular and persistent trap drummer. He comes here from the set of Paramount's What a Life, and is heard as Lieutenant Stone. Douglas Dumbrill returns to us as Muhammad Khan, and so we set our sights for India as the Lux Radio Theatre presents Lives of a Bengal Lancer. India, the India of the Northwest Frontier. Looming like frowning barriers are the mountains. Rugged cliffs ideal for sniping, from which the bloodthirsty hill tribes swoop down eager for battle against a handful of seasoned British soldiers. Here is stationed His Majesty's Crack Indian Regiment, the 41st Bengal Lancers. On an almost impassable roadway, a small detachment of Lancers struggles upward into the hills. There's no sign of life above them, no movement on the cliffs, but suddenly... column halt! Well, there you are, Hendrickson. I told you they're up there. I never doubted it, Mr. McGregor. Well, what do we do? Just stand here and take it? We go forward slowly, but on no account we return fire. But they're shooting at us, men. What did he send us out here for? I don't know, McGregor, and neither do you, but the Colonel does. Forward! Hendrickson, this is suicide. I don't mind getting pink, but I want at least one shot at the beggars, where I come from... Where you come from, the Royal Canadian Mounted, all those get their man. But you're not in Canada now, Mr. McGregor. There. That's Lawton. He's down. Now he can start shooting.  Hold your fire. But the old fool can't have foreseen this, Hendrickson. Look, Mac, I'd like to have you with me in war, but for peace you're... you're nothing to... Hendrickson. Call and hold. Hendrickson, where is it? Impulsive. That's what I was trying to say. Mr. McGregor, is Captain Hendrickson hurt, sir? He's dead. Open fire. Break every tree and rock on that cliff. Go on. You don't understand it. I gave definite orders to Hendrickson that our detachment was not to return fire. Perhaps there's some explanation, Colonel Stone. All we know, at least till they get back, is that there was a skirmish, and we drove the Afridis back into the hills. Skirmish? With Mohammed Khan himself. Certainly. He was nibbling at my bait, too. If he'd come down off that hill, I'd have had him at last. Four detachments were standing by in the rear to surround him. That was your plan? Of course. Now I can't prove it was from Mohammed Khan. I don't touch him. I'm shocked at Hendrickson. I thought he was a good officer. Perhaps if you'd explained to the detachment that they were only there as bait. Explain orders? Explain orders to subordinates? I'm surprised at you, Hamilton. What is it? Mr. McGregor, sir. Yes, sir. McGregor? He was second in command, sir. Send him in. Mr. McGregor? Well, McGregor, why didn't Hendrickson come himself? Wounded? No, sir. Dead, sir. Dead? Killed by the Afridis. There's your explanation, Colonel. Most unfortunate. Most unfortunate, the command was handed out to you, McGregor. You didn't know my orders. I knew them, sir. You did? And you deliberately disobeyed them? Why? We were losing men, sir. But you did disobey my orders. Yes, sir. If Hendrickson was killed, I... Hendrickson knew my orders and obeyed them. Hendrickson was a good soldier. It is more than I can say for you. Then we'll go to your quarters, Mr. McGregor. I say, easy on the bungalow, Mac. You're looking very sour, Mr. McGregor. Would you mind turning the other way? You disturbed my music. You know, I'm finally getting the hang of this Afghan clarinet. Listen. Oh, will you please lay off that thing, Forsythe? Oh, certainly, Mr. McGregor. What's the matter, Mac? Been reprimanded? Yes. Oh, Ramrod Stone. I'm no soldier, apparently, because when I'm attacked, I fight back. Oh, I was afraid you'd get in trouble over that patrol business. Why, you knew Hendrickson had strict orders not to fire? I was speaking to Mr. Dawson, Forsythe. Oh, big your pardon, old man. Colonel's been on this border 20 years, Mac. He knows it pretty well. And I don't, I suppose. Well, I know enough to fight back when my men begin to fall. Stone's got nothing but a Ramrod for a backbone. Oh, yes, I know he's a tariff for drilling. But when it comes to the real thing, what's he got? Nothing. Bravo! Hurrah for Mr. McGregor. Why, Mr. McGregor. Yes, and here comes the other boot. Here are the day's orders, all type, Colonel. Thank you, Major. Routine. Routine. What's this, Major? The, uh, the, uh, the Subbleton replacement for Hendrickson. He arrives tomorrow on the deli train. Oh. What are they sending us? Stones, sir. From Sandhurst. From Sandhurst? Yes, sir. Straight to the frontier from military college? I can't even be dry behind the years. What did you say his name is? Stone, sir. Donald Stone. I see. Huh. You have a brother in the war office, haven't you, Hamilton? Yes, sir. And who asked you and him to interfere in my personal affairs? A pair of you, made in arms. Whangling my son into a cushy berth so his father will make things soft for him, eh? Will you forget you're my Colonel for a moment, sir? Why not? You've forgotten it. Look, Tom, in two years you'll have to retire. Oh, you feel sorry for me, is that it? Not at all. It's only to keep the name of Stone in the 41st after you've gone. Keep the name in the 41st sentimentality. You don't know what you've done, Hamilton. He, he belongs to his mother, not to me. He took him away from me. Hated the army, everything about it. I haven't seen him since he was a little shaver. But the only decent thing she ever did was to put him through Sandhurst. And now you do this. I've a good mind to refuse him at a hardly fair time to ship him back without trial. Well, you'll have to measure up to my standards. And if the first sign of favoritism from you or anyone else will be troubled. That's an order, Major Hamilton. Lieutenant McGregor? Yes, sir. Lieutenant Forsythe. Meet the replacement subordinate at the Delhi train. He'll be quartered in the bungalow with you. Lieutenant Donald Stone is the name. Stone? The Colonel's son. His what? He said his son. Well, well. Imagine old Ramrod having been that human. Well, maybe he knew he was married. Why, sure. Can't you see him proposing? Madam, you'll marry me Wednesday the 29th. Be at the church at 10. That's an order. Furthermore, you're improperly dressed, Madam. This is the living room. The washroom opens off here, Mr. Stone. Why, I thought you'd be living in shacks. This is positively luxurious. Oh, we, uh, we tried to be civilized, Mr. Stone. The heat comes down now. Well, let's have a look at the staples, eh? It's all rather thrilling, don't you think? Thrilling? Oh, I mean, it's like Kipling and all that. Kipling? Kipling? Who's Kipling, Mr. Forsythe? Kipling? Let me see, uh... I don't believe I ever heard of him. Oh, really? Oh, well, you... You're pulling my leg, of course. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. It's always been my impression that we salute when passing a superior officer. Who's this? A new subordinate policeman, sir. Colonel Stone, um, Lieutenant Stone. Uh, how do you do, sir? Ah, yes, yes. Mr. Stone, you've come to us direct from military training school, without previous service. Is that correct? Yes, sir. Well, you've a great deal to learn. I trust you'll measure up to our requirements. Good afternoon, gentlemen. Good afternoon, sir. Doesn't he ever say more than that to newcomers? Oh, yes. Sometimes he comments on the weather. Oh. You see, Colonel's pretty much a stickler for red tape. I mean, the distance between his men and all that, you know. Oh, well, then I have no exception. I mean, he didn't single me out for anything? No, no, that's just his man. He's all right when you know him. Oh, you must excuse me. You know, well, this is the first time I can ever remember ever seeing him. What? Do you mean it? I don't know quite what I expected. Well, you'll know next time. Oh, look, wait. I nearly forgot something. Where did I put that? Oh, here. Take this paper to the colonel. We just done. Regimental headquarters. Did he ask to have me take this to him? I said, take it to the colonel. I forgot to give it to him. Yes, sir. Very good, sir. Nice work, Mr. McGregor. Well, what's funny about that?  Reconciling father and son after years of separation. Oh, he's all right when you know him. Since when? That paper was a blank, wasn't it?  Oh, never mind, Mac. The mother instinct comes out in all of us. I kissed the dear finger so toy-worn for me.  Come in. Where's the stone, sir? Oh, well, I've done it. This paper, sir, I was told to bring it to you. Well, let's have it. Where did you get this? Mr. McGregor, sir, he said... Infernal impedance. I beg your pardon, sir. No, no, no, no. Not you, not you, not you. Well, how's your mother? Quite well, sir. Good, good. She always hated the army, didn't she? Yes, sir. I don't understand how she let you go through Sanhurst. She had to, sir. I kept after her.  We've always been soldiers for generations. Still, you're not one yet, you know. Yes, sir. You shouldn't be here on the frontier. But I am, sir. Yes, and why? Influence. Favoritism. But with me, the good of the service. The regiment comes first. That's what mother always said about you, sir. Yes, that's what your mother always said. Well, now you're here. Don't try to take advantage. Yes, sir. I didn't expect... And you understand, of course, the situation makes any sort of social relationship impossible. Yes, sir. Is that all, sir? That's all I've done it. What's that? That? Well, that's the Mohammedan call to prayer. There's always no one's time to dress for dinner by that. Have me that shaving, Mark. Will you, sir? No. See the Colonel today? Yes. Oh, sir, I. I've got another reprimand for sending in blank orders. And I imagine you didn't do so well either. Sorry, sir. Quite all right. What did you do all day? Stable duty. What? So soon? I'm not complaining. Well, it wouldn't help you any harm. You know, every time I look in this mirror, I remind myself of my old man. Oh, back home. Where was that? Alberta, Canada, wheat farm. You know, I had a coat once. A lot of nerves. A lot of claws, too. You could see when he was a yearling, he was no cart horse. Well, my old man hooked him to a plow. And he took all the spirit out of him. He said he'd break him in and he did. You don't have to be so subtle, Mac. Huh? Am I the horse? What do you mean? I'm no two-year-old, Mr. McGregor. And if anybody thinks my old man is going to break my nerve, he's mistaken. Well, I wasn't thinking of you at all. Hey, Forsythe, lay off that thing, will you? Hey, let me tell you another thing. I don't need a nurse, Mr. McGregor. What nurse are you talking about? Forsythe, do you have to do that? Well, it's the softer side to my nature. Like yours. Stone, get out there and tell him to stop that thing, will you? Tell him it's an order. Yes, sir. Mother McCree, I'd like to wrap that thing around his neck. McGregor! McGregor! What's the matter? Forsythe, he's on the veranda. There's a cobra right above him swaying to the music. Where's the revolver? Oh, wait a minute. A cobra? Yes, right over his head. Never mind, I'll take care of it. He'll be all right as long as he keeps playing. Come on. Forsythe, very pretty. You're improving. They're lovely little things, cobras. Especially when they're swaying three inches from your nose. Shoot it, quick! Oh, no, no. How about a few variations for the right hand? Cobras have a softer side of their natures, too, haven't they? Finds an outlet in music. Of course, as soon as you stop playing, well, I've heard of men living two and three hours afterwards. New one fellow lived two days. What's the matter? Getting tired? Oh, come on. Two or three more notes, Forsythe. Come on, that's right. Now, if you move your own nose a half inch to the left, all right, steady. Thanks, Meg. Well, you win, mister. Here, for sale, cheap. One second-hand Afghan bagpipe. Mother mother. Take a seat. Mr. McGregor, I assume you're familiar with the road to the northeast of Fort Jamrod? Yes, sir. Then listen closely. We suspect there's a collision of several of the border states being formed against us. We think the ringleader is Mohammed Khan, chief of the Magala. I have a spy in his territory, a Ghazi horse dealer. He's now a Judd-Put pass, waiting to get a message through to me. I want you to get in touch with him, and you'll leave at once. Yes, sir. Take one Subbleton and ten men. Yes, sir. What Subbleton shall I take, sir? Any preferences? Oh, Mr. Stone, sir. No. No service experience. Take Forsythe. Lieutenant Stone hasn't seen any duty yet, sir. He's ever going to get any experience. If you hear what I say to Mr. McGregor, you will take Forsythe, not Stone. Is that clear? Yes, sir. Here are your orders. And this time, please obey them. Mr. McGregor, Forsythe? Yes, all right. Why wasn't I sent on this exposition? You've got to tell me. Ready, sir? In a moment. Wait a minute. Why don't you answer me? I look here, Stone. I'd have taken you along, but you haven't had any experience. What excuse is that? How am I ever going to have experience? I'm doing things here that I learned my first human sandhurst, stable duty. I haven't asked any favors. I'm not asking now, but I resent being held back because I happen to be related to the commanding officer. No one's holding you back. He is. And you let him choose Forsythe. He didn't choose. I chose. I chose Forsythe. Very well. Very well. It looks as if I ever want to get any experience. I'll have to get it myself. What? Now, what was all that about? Oh, well, whatever it is, we haven't time for it now. Mother McCree, that's me all right. Biggest fool in the lances. Forward! The curtain falls on Act One of Lives of a Vengal Lancer, starring Errol Flynn, Brianna Hearn, Jackie Cooper, and C. Aubrey Smith. During this beef intermission, we bring you that lovable family of the Brownings. It's after dinner, and we find the family in the living room. Mother Browning is reading, and the two girls, Dot and Midge, are chattering over their homework. What's your score now, Dot? 18. What's yours, Midge? Oh, gee, mine's only nine. You've beaten me all hollow. What are you girls talking about? It doesn't sound like homework to me. It's our stocking scores, Mother. Your what? Stocking scores. You see, we're trying to make Midge remember to use Lux Flakes for her stockings. So we've made up a little game. Yes, we're supposed to Lux our stockings every night. Only I still forget sometimes. And then we keep track of how many days our stockings wear without getting run. And Mother, Dot's worn one pair of stockings 18 days. Isn't that wonderful? Well, it certainly is. What's your record, Midge? Well, I'd have been all right. Only I went and rubbed my stockings with a cake of soap a few times. And they popped into run. What could you expect? Scrubbing your stockings like that, Midge. Well, anyway, I'm better than I used to be. You just wait. One of these days, my score will be as good as yours. Well, if you ever remember to always use Lux, it will be. Those girls have the right idea. Try Lux Flakes for your stockings. You'll be delighted that the way it helps your stockings wear longer. Lux saves the elasticity of silk. It's stretch and give. Your stockings won't break into run so easily, and they'll fit better, too. Yes, Lux helps stockings and all washables stay new looking longer. That's a good thing to remember. A thrifty thing to remember. Because a little goes so far. Lux is thrifty, you know. And now I see Mr. DeMille is ready to raise the curtain on the second act of our play. We continue with lives of the Bengal Lancer, starring Errol Flynn, Brian Ahern, Jackie Cooper, and C. Aubrey Smith. Several days have passed since McGregor and Forsythe left to seek information on the movements of the Hill tribes. It's long after midnight, and in the Lamplit Regimental headquarters, Colonel Stone remains in conference with the Chief of Army Intelligence, Sir Thomas Woodley. Personally, I feel the Amy of Bhopal is only a tool in the hands of Mohammed Khan. Definitely, General. I've known Amy of Bhopal 20 years, and I don't believe he'd join this war against us. Why, every year or so, I take the regiments of Bhopal for the hunting. That means hunting wild pigs in this section. Why not drop in on him as usual this year? If our information is correct, Mohammed Khan will be there. Nothing would please me more. Mr. McGregor just returned, sir. Good. Ask him to come in. This is the man I sent to reconnoiter. McGregor? Well, McGregor? All safe. All safe, sir. Good. And you saw our man? Yes, sir. He says the Afghan Chief is rounding up the border tribes against us. Mohammed Khan has agreed to furnish two million rounds of ammunition. Two million rounds? And did our man learn where Mohammed Khan hopes to get it? Yes, sir. By capturing our year's supply train, sir. Good work. Thank you, McGregor. May I speak, sir? Well? Why can't we slip out of here? Strike first. Wipe out Mohammed Khan before he attacks us. Are you suggesting I begin hostilities before consulting Army Intelligence headquarters? Army Intelligence.  They won't give us action. They'll send us to the Amir of Bhopal for parade or pig sticking. An excellent suggestion. What? Sir Thomas, may I present Lieutenant McGregor? McGregor, this is Major General Sir Thomas Woodley, Chief of Army Intelligence. Oh. Oh, yes, sir. How do you do? Very well, thank you. Colonel Stone, your regiment leaves the door to hunt wild pigs on the estate of the Amir of Bhopal. Do you hear that, McGregor? Yes, sir. And let it be a lesson in diplomacy. Now get yourself a few hours' sleep. We leave at five. That's marvelous, that is. Oh, Mac, will you keep quiet? I was just falling asleep. Intelligence department. Action's just about to bust around here. And all we do is to go and ride over the private hunting grounds of our tin whistle prints, sticking lances into pigs. Wonderful. Sounds rather fun. I ought to be good at that. Oh, by the way, I've got some bad news for you. Your ward, Young Stone. Well, what about him? What about him? What about him indeed? What are you talking about? Well, every night since we left, he's been down in the native quarter of the town. Rolls home blotto about dawn. He does? Is he there now? Well, he's out on the usual binge, I imagine. But we leave for Bhopal in two hours. Oh, my, my. What will stern father say if we leave without his son?  Oh, let old Ramrod do something about it. I'm going to bed. I reasoned along similar lines. However, you might hang a lamp in the window or something. Native quarters, eh? Well, I suppose I better go and get him. So long, there, sir.  The line's been waiting 10 minutes for you. Sorry, sir, we... I mean, I overslept. Overslept? Report to me later. Join your squadron. Yes, sir. One moment, sir. Well, I've done the stone. He didn't oversleep, sir. Mr. McGregor spent the night digging me out of a native quarter and trying to get me sober. Mr. Stone, if I didn't need every officer, I'd piss you under immediate arrest. Take a break. We'll leave for Bhopal at once. All this fuss is for him. Big reception, fancy speeches. All Bhopal will turn out in the morning for what? I believe you said for pig sticking.  If you don't mind, Mac, I'd rather like it here. It's like something out of Arabian nights. I say, look, on that bench by the fountain, that girl. Oh? Well, Mr. McGregor. Oh, definitely. She is beautiful, isn't she? I wonder who she is. That, my friend, is what I'm just going to find out. Uh, you? Well, I saw her first, didn't I? No, Mac, you know you're lying. I saw her first. Oh, wait a minute. You know I saw her first. Loser, keep clear. Well, I say really, gentlemen. Hey, look, look out. Here comes the colonel and that chief of the Oxford Brogue. Well, in your stomachs, gentlemen. I'd like you to meet two more of my officers, Mr. McGregor and Mr. Forsythe. This gentleman is our friend and neighbor across the border from our station, Mohammed Khan. Mohammed? Oh, honored, Khan Saab. Khan Saab? A very great pleasure, gentlemen. And now, Khan Saab, if you'll grant me a few moments' private conversation, there are a few things I'd like to discuss. Well, I'll be at Mohammed Khan, the enemy himself. And I thought we came here for pig sticking. Mr. Forsythe, let me give you some advice. Never make fun of army intelligence. Thank you, Mr. McGregor. And now, I believe we had some unfinished business. Oh, yes, yes. The little slo-eyed number on the bench. Right, heads or tails. Oh, don't bother, Mac. Look over there. Your ward has beat us to it. Well, can you beat that? Well, I suppose we'll have to rescue him again, Forsythe. Just what I was thinking. Come along, old man. Tonya Volenskaya, did I say it right? Oh, you have a wonderful Russian accent, Mr. Stone. Oh, there. I knew you were Russian. Hello, Casanova. Oh, hello. You were telling Ms. Volenskaya about the opera? I'm sorry, Mr. Stone, but Major Hamilton wants you. Very important. Now, look here, Mac. It's an order, Mr. Stone. Very well. Pardon me, Ms. Volenskaya. I'll be back in a moment. Too bad he had to leave, Ms. Volenskaya. Did I hear it right? Did we hear it right? Oh, yes. That is correct. Oh, no manners this younger generation, Ms. Volenskaya. Forgot the introductions. Now, this is Mr. McGregor, who is strongly imbued with the protective instinct. Oh, and this is Mr. Forsythe, who is a snake charming.  Oh, thanks. You said something of snake charming? Did I? Oh, I must sit and talk about myself. Now, you take me. I'm from Canada up in Alberta. I won't keep still. You will keep still. These walls are like paper, and your voice carries all over the place. You made me walk right into a heavy discussion between the colonel and that Mohammed Khan chap with the Oxford accent. The old man was furious. Look, you two, please put out that lamp and go to sleep. I'll get even with you someday, Mac. You see if I don't. All right, then. If you want the truth, here it is. And this is the reason you've got to keep away from her. She's Mohammed Khan's. What? She came here with him. We found it out afterwards. She? I don't believe it. Oh, he doesn't believe it, Forsythe. Oh, go to sleep. Do we have to be up every night saving him from women? We've got to be up at dawn again, for pigs taking. Pacing your tent will not settle your problems, Mohammed Khan. Perhaps not, Tanya, but it will help us raise my anger. Is the great Mohammed Khan angry at the unexpected? You don't understand. I laid a trap with this wise old fox of a British colonel to fall into. I wished him to attack the border while I remained peacefully here. His being here ruins my plans to seize the two million rounds of ammunition I pledge myself to furnish. You would like to have the old fox attack the border? What else have I been saying? Have you ever taken a cub from a Tigris? Is this a time for riddles? What do you mean? The wise old fox has brought with him his cub. They paid you marked attention this evening. Yes. The cub likes me. Now, if that cub were captured, taken wherever you want the old one to follow... My dear Tanya, forgive me. I'm continually surprised to discover intelligence of the woman of such great beauty. Perhaps we have not lost yet, my Tanya. If you could send him a message secretly tonight. At once, Mohammed Khan. Who's out there? Open the door. That sounds like Major Hamilton. All times to wake a man up. McGregor! All right. Yes, sir. We'll go to the colonel's quarters at once. Yes, sir. Anything wrong? Mohammed Khan and his men have been camped. And they've taken young Stone with them. If he's gone back to the border, we can be at McGarlar as soon as he can. This regiment can ride, sir. I'm quite aware my regiment can ride. But it's not going to ride. Mohammed Khan kidnapped my son to goad me into pursuing him. To draw the Lancers out of position. He's mistaken his man. The regiment stays right here, obedient to the intelligence department. Then let me go, sir. I could take a small detachment. Thank you, Mr. McGregor, but I'll allow no officer to risk his life when another's own disobedience and folly caused his trouble. Colonel Stone, you've been on the border a long time, I know. But perhaps you've never heard what Mohammed Khan does to his prisoners. I've been on this border 20 years, Mr. McGregor. You're unnecessarily dramatic. Am I? I was just beginning to think that I was wrong about you. But I wasn't.   Please, Mr. McGregor, pending charges of insubordination consider yourself under arrest. Mr. Forsythe. Yes, sir. You will be responsible for the prisoner. Yes, sir. Come along, McGregor. Colonel Stone, you... That will do. Yes, sir. Major Hamilton. Yes, Colonel. You will see that everything goes on as usual. We must show no alarm. Yes, sir. It's strange, Major. But for the first time, I begin to realize I have a son. You will go to your quarters, Major. You spoke your mind. If there's any virtue in that. Regiment, duty. You're improperly dressed. The old stuffed shirt. Why, I could... Ah, look here, man. Get some sense. You imagine it was easy for him to do this? Well, why not? He'd do the same to any of us. That's where you're wrong. I watched his face. He was as white as a sheet. Nice. That's being a man and a soldier, I suppose. Well, if it is, I don't want any part of it. Look, Meg, it ever occurred to you to wonder why a handful of men have managed to order the lives of 300 million people out here in India? It's because he's here. And a few more like him. Men who put their jobs ahead of everything, neither death, death nor love can move them from it. And when his breed dies out, well, that's the end here, Meg. You're on his side, I am. Well, I'm not. He can sit over there and hug his duty all he wants to, but I'm going to do something. I'm going after that kid. Oh, really, Mr. McGregor?  Now, listen, Forsythe, I don't want any trouble from you. Maybe you never heard what Muhammad can't as to his prisoners, Mr. McGregor. I'm going to go in native costume. I'll get by all right. And I'm going. Oh, very well. When do we start? What do you mean, we? Well, you're my prisoner, you know. Can't let you out of my sight. We'll go after the kid. Oh, so I'm Mother McCree, huh? Well, I guess this makes you something, too. Come along, Mrs. Forsythe. Come along. The Station Identification. This is the Columbia Broadcasting System. We've just finished the second act of lives of a Bengal Lancer, starring Errol Flynn, Brian Ahern, Jackie Cooper, and C. Aubrey Smith. During this brief intermission, we bring you our guest of the evening. But first, a word to the ladies. Look at your hands for a moment. Right now, while I'm talking, won't you? Are they as smooth and pretty as you'd like them to be? If they're not, maybe it's the fault of the soap you use for your dishes. Why not switch to Lux Flakes? Lux is kind to your hands, you know. It has no harmful alkali, absolutely nothing to dry and age your skin. It helps your hands stay soft and smooth the way you want them to look. Next time you buy soap for your dishes, think of your hands and say, Lux Flakes, please, in the large-sized box. And now, here's Mr. DeMille with our guest. Like the men of our play, tonight's guest, General Hugh Samuel Johnson has had a career long characterized by service to his country. Serving with the Army and the Philippines and in Mexico under General Pershing, General Johnson, during the World War, handled the gigantic problems of the drafts and Army supply and commanded the 8th Division. Famous as administrator of the NRA, he's also an author of books and articles on national events and a two-fisted columnist for the Scripps Howard newspapers. We switch our microphones now to Washington, D.C. General Johnson, come in. I like these radio presentations of great dramas. I think the lives of a Bengal dancer is the best movie I have seen. I saw it four times. My son, a captain in our regular Army, has seen it oftener. Most of our soldiers saw it. I never heard any who did not feel about it as I do. My brother-in-law served for years in the Indian Army. He took into France a Punjabi brigade, the very type of troops here pictured. The lives of a Bengal dancer is true to life, if not to any particular story. To anybody who has served in the Orient, it wakes memories as poignant as his Pete smoked to an Irishman. The motto of West Point is engraved on the ring of every man who ever graduated, Grant Sherman Sheridan, Lee Stonewall Jackson Pershing, and thousands of others. It is simply duty, honor, country. On that motto a tradition arose. It demands and receives any sacrifice for the nation, even certain death. We can ever rely on it as the country has relied for almost a century and a half. The lives of a Bengal dancer tells a similar story of the British Army. It is no better and no worse than thousands of stories that the American Army knows. I don't usually cry at movies, but I bathe this one in weeping. It is a simple, honest tale of men who would rather be dead than not be decent. Nobody deserves credit for doing his plain duty, but every man who dies doing it deserves at least the tribute of a tear. The general salutes the soldier. Thank you, General Johnson. We return to Hollywood for act three of Lives of a Bengal Lancer, starring Errol Flynn, Brian Ahern, Jackie Cooper, and C. Aubrey Smith in a fortified valley nestled among the forbidding Afghan mountains, lies Mughala, stronghold of Mohammed Khan. In a crude room, richly hung with fine tapestries, the Khan in native dress is seated cross-legged on the floor. He smiles as he's told of the capture of two British officers. And one of them played most atrociously upon a push-to-read pipe. When we arrested them as imposters, he dropped the pretense of being deaf and dumb and claimed he played the pure music of Arabia. These English, what bravery to cross our mountains in such a fashion, disguised as our own people. I believe I shall have dinner in a great hall tonight, Hassan, and I will have these two English officers as my guest with Mr. Stone. I want the dinner to be faultless. In the English manner, I taught you. Candles, the good silver, the fine china, and, yes, the 1870 Brandy in the 1912 Medoc. It is done, Mohammed Khan. I've seen some excellent cricket in my day, Mr. Forsythe. I was asked for 1910, you know. Oh, really? Then that explains your tastes. A real splendid dinner, Khan Sahib. The mutton. How was it? Oh, well, now you make my position very difficult. Pride of country, you know. English mutton is acknowledged the finest. More brandy, Mr. Stone? No, thank you. Come, Mr. Stone, a soldier should never refuse to eat, drink, or make love. My sentiments exactly, Khan Sahib. Eat, drink, and be merry. For tomorrow... For tomorrow we die.  What's the score? Easy, Mac. You've caught us. Now what are you going to do with this? Mr. McGregor wants action. Well, perhaps you shall have it. It will depend. Go on. I naturally regret that Colonel Stone did not rise to my bait and attack me when I removed his son. I now must admit I had underestimated that Colonel's intelligence. Well, what's that make us? It makes a view whatever you choose. In fact, I'm prepared to furnish all three of you with horses and a safe conduct pass through the mountain tribes so you may rejoin your regiment. And what's the catch? You have but to answer two simple questions. Watch this one, Mac. I want to know by what route the yearly ammunition train is coming to supply the 41st Lancers and just where the 41st Lancers plans to meet it. Well, when the furry household animal jumped out of the bag, it really jumped, didn't it? Well, gentlemen, you will not tell me. We have ways to make men talk as you are all without thinking, effective ways.  My household guards, gentlemen, does this mean we're prisoners, not guests? I regret to say it does. Well, that's splendid. Because I've been wanting to tell you all along what I really thought of that mutton. Precisely my thought, Mr. McGregor. I regret to say it, Mohammed Khan, but your mutton is distinctly inferior. The word, Mr. Forsythe, is rotten. Yes, gentlemen, as you may have guessed, is the room where we obtain much of our most desirable information. Good God. Steady, pull yourself together, Stone. Oh, really, sirs, must I proceed to such unpleasant and absurd extremes as torture? Well, now these... these are the beginning. They look like mere strips of thin bamboo. However, driven under the nails and lighted, we find them very, uh, warm. And persuasive. Like the Jalau. Mr. Forsythe and Mr. Stone, I will ask you two to watch while we start with Mr. McGregor. Salutieri, the effect of watching at times.  Thank you, Mr. Forsythe. I dislike dramatics intensely myself. Now, Mr. McGregor, if you will sit down, please. Like the Jalau. Warm, Mr. McGregor. Now, that ammunition train will be... Where, please? I don't know. Where? I don't know. Oh, but you do think hard. I don't know. I don't know. Mr. Forsythe, I... I have a cigarette. They all threw with you? I hope so. Seem to have got to the second stage with Stone. I thought they'd busted a whip on me. You know, now I've been through it. A licking my old man gave me once was almost as bad. Don't make... You didn't talk, did you? Not unless I was unconscious. Never knew you could swear like you did. Oh. Oh, I'm not so bad. They're keeping him longer in there than they kept us. Yeah, seems like it. Hope he's had a licking from his old man. Not him, don't you remember? Oh, yeah, that's right. Oh, well, that's a new experience for him. Somehow, it hurts worse to hear it on him. Maybe that's because you think I've talked. Well, don't you? I can't help it, Phil. Well, after all, he's got the old man's blood in him. Listen, they're bringing him in. Hope so. Oh, my God, my God, don't do it. Don't, don't do it. Here, here, take his head back. On the bed with him, right up. Here, cigarette, kid. Leave me alone, leave me alone. Listen, did you talk?  Sorry, Stone, we have to know. I didn't talk you here. I swear I didn't. All right, kid. All right, we believe you. Here, take this cigarette. Well, I guess Mohammed Khan found the Lancers a pretty tough bunch.  That is really a problem for the philosophers, Mr. McGregor. Now, take my own beard. I would say that in another week I shall be about eligible for the French Academy.  When you're in jail, Mr. Stone, you cease to be a human being. Oh, listen. Listen, what's that noise? Take a look from the window. Right. It's another caravan, probably. Well, what's the matter? You tell us that they didn't make your talk. I told you I didn't talk. I gave you my word, didn't I? What'd you see out there? It's another caravan, all right. They're loaded with ammunition boxes. Hundreds of them. And all bearing our seal. Our ammunition? Two million rounds. Captured by Mohammed Khan that returns back against British soldiers. You hear that, Stone? That's what you've done. Oh, don't, don't. I couldn't help it. No wonder they didn't take us back into their torture chamber. They didn't have to. Because you told them.  Well, you'll think of the pain you'll cause our men. Oh, I'll mess with you. Oh, stop it. One of us got a piece is enough. Don't take it too hard, Stone. It's not your fault entirely. But I could see now how right your father was. The Lancers are soldiers. Well-seasoned soldiers. Toughened by service. You're a kid in the Lancers of men. Your father wanted to make a man of you. Wanted to get you so that you could take it. Take anything and never let the army down. That's the only thing we want out here. Chance to do a job and to do it well. Well, I guess you know that now, kid. Watch it. Good evening, gentlemen. Well, well, the old mutton server. My friends, I thought you might be interested to know your clever Colonel Stone is about to pay me a visit. Some call it an attack against me with the 41st Bender Lancers. They're now only two hours away. I expect to make his reception a memorable one. But I hope to capture the Colonel alive so that I may see his face when I present him with his son who has betrayed him. Good evening, my friends. 300 Lancers. Against that ammunition. The Colonel wouldn't do anything so foolish. He has to. Once that ammunition is distributed, it means a general war. He's going to try to capture it and destroy that ammunition. Wait. I've got an idea. I think so. What do you see out there, Mac? I was just measuring the distance from here to the place where they're storing that stuff. Oh, about 200 yards, I'd say. No, no. No, near 100. Yeah, I ran the 200 at Cambridge. Is that so? Well, I run the 110 flat at McGill. This is a job for 100 yards. Toss it for it, Mac. Oh, no, you don't. I'm your superior officer. You take your orders from me. You forget you're my prisoner. You take orders from me. No. Someone's coming. That's the guard. Without food. Now. Yes, I chance. Get behind the door. Get it, Mac. Come on. No, no, no. Well, so long, Mac. Oh, no, you don't. If anyone's going. I'm sorry, foresight. But I said this was my job. So long. Mac. Mac, come back.  You want to get him away? What's he going to do? He's going to blow up that ammunition shed. If he can. Blow up the... Mac! Oh, no, no. I'm going after him. You try it and you'll get what Mac gave me. Oh, but he's going to die for what I did. Let me out. Let me out. You ask for it, Stone. Now listen. Mac Gregor went out there to blow up that ammunition. And himself with it. So that your father can hold up his head. You might think you can run out on that. But you can't. You're going to face it. All your life you'll face it. And your father's never going to know. And that's the debt you owe Mac Gregor. You hear? I hear. Yes, then. You pray that Mac has luck in blowing that place up. Or you will have no father to keep the secret from.  Oh, God. God let him get away. It's a miracle I'm asking now. But is there to die for me? For what I've done. It's I who should die for him. There he goes. There he goes. That's the yard. Oh, keep going, Mac. Keep going, men. Go on. He's there. He's there. Good boy, Mac. And by the command of His Majesty the King Emperor. In the presence of this regiment, I confer upon you, Lieutenant Forsythe, the distinguished service order. Thank you, sir. Second Lieutenant Donald Stone, 41st Bengal Lancers for conspicuous gallantry in action. During the recent siege of Mongolia, he broke from the cell in which he was imprisoned and attacked the enemy from within, killing their leader, Mohammed Khan, and thus demoralizing hostile forces when the success of our arms is in the balance. Lieutenant Donald Stone, by command of His Majesty the King Emperor, and in the sight of this regiment, I confer upon you the distinguished service order. My boy. Thank you, sir.  Contributing thereby to the success of our arms in action before the siege of Mongolia. His Majesty the King Emperor has been most graciously pleased to confer posthumously the Victoria Cross upon the late Captain Allen McGregor. In accordance with the custom of this regiment, I place this cross upon the saddle cloth of his horse. Move to the right in front of the post. Arm post. McGregor. McGregor. Yes, to take it. To take anything. Never let the army down. That's the only thing we want out here. It's a chance to do a job. And to do it well. Well, I guess you know that now, kid. The last act of lives of the Bengal Lancer, starring Errol Flynn, Brian Ahern, Jackie Cooper, and C. Aubrey Smith. In a moment, our stars return for their bow. But first, I wonder if you can guess how many teaspoons of flakes one large-sized box of locks holds. I'll wager you won't come anywhere near the right figure. Well, measured out spoonful for spoonful, there are nearly 400 rounded teaspoons of flakes in one large-sized box. Nearly 400 teaspoonfuls. Think of that. And just a few flakes make such wonderful suds. Gentle, but effective. One box of locks will do many, many things for you. And that's a good thing to remember while you're thinking of spring house cleaning. It would take a long time to list all the things locks flakes will keep fresh and bright in every room of your house. But just to give you an idea, in the bedroom, the blankets and bedspreads, pillows and slip covers, in the living room, rugs and a poultry, lampshades, piano keys, curtains, the kitchen, glassware and dishes of course, leather, furniture and linoleum. And the woodwork all over the house. Why, if you don't know how much locks flakes can do for you, you'll want to get acquainted with them now. You'll be amazed how much easier locks makes your housework and how inexpensive it is. A little goes so far, locks is thrifty, you know. So get the generous large-sized box tomorrow and use it for everything, safe and water alone. And remember, while you work with gentle locks flakes, you'll be saving your hands. That's mighty important to any woman. Mr. DeMille. In Messers Flynn, Ahern, Cooper and Smith, we have respectively a famous sailor, an airplane pilot, a trap drummer and a cricket player, which leaves the field open for any topic that may pop into their distinguished head. By right of seniority, Mr. Smith, you take the lead. Very well then. I'll begin by suggesting that Brown and Errol report a little more consistently for cricket practice. Do they play that sissy game? Sissy game? Young man, just you come round to Griffith Park some Sunday afternoon and observe. You'll be playing a different tune on that drum of yours. Sissy game? Got any nuggets? You don't need tickets, Jackie. Few people seem to know it, but they can witness a fine exhibition of cricket and some of Hollywood's greatest stars playing it for no charge at all by just coming around to the public park. And incidentally, enjoying a nice cup of tea on the house. Perhaps that's it, Brown. Maybe you and Errol don't like the brand of tea we've been serving after the game. Oh, I'm awfully sorry, Mr. Smith. Rough games like cricket are all right for you youngsters, but we're getting on, you know. All the playing Errol I've been doing lately has been on the sound stages. But what about that trip you just made to Dodd City, Kansas, Mr. Flynn, for your new picture? Ah, yes, Errol. I hear you had a wonderful time there. Hope I get a trip to Mexico for the premiere of Juarez. Ah. Wait till you hear the rootin', tootin' and shootin' when Mr. DeMille opens Union Pacific in Omaha a couple of weeks from now. Mm-hmm. Kind words, Errol. But you gave us something to shoot at in your Kansas expedition. Well, sir, I can honestly say I was never so impressed in all my life. Actors, newspapers, photographers, all of us traveled to Dodd City. That's a town of about 10,000 people, but when we got there, we found an additional 90,000 visitors. Well, I've been in this country over four years now, but I never really saw America until that trip. I mean the real America, the people who go to see the pictures we make. I've never seen such hospitality or real down-to-earth courtesy as we saw on that trip. And here's one very important discovery for me. After making it, a broadcast like this has taken on an entirely new meaning. I used to just talk in this little black microphone here and hope for the best, but now I feel that I know the people we're playing to. And knowing them, I can't help feeling that I know the finest people in the world. Good night. And so say all of us. Good night. And thank you, CD. Good night. Good night, Mr. DeMille. Good night, Lancel. Report here for beauty thrown again. Don't miss the news that Mr. DeMille brings you shortly about the stars and play coming next Monday. Tonight's cast included Ian McLaren as Major Hamilton, C. Montague Shaw as Sir Thomas Woodley, Nancy Leach as Tanya, Lyle Shanmara as Vizier, Eric Snowden as Captain Hendrickson, and Ian Purvis as Mr. Dawson.

So Blender 2.8 has officially been released and it is absolutely fantastic. Everything I was worried about in 2.8 has been completely fixed and I am loving it. Bravo to the Blender development team because you guys really pulled through and it absolutely shows. Fantastic job guys. And if you're new here then you are extremely lucky because there has never been a better time to get into 3D software than right now. You will not find a better 3D program for a cheaper price than Blender 2.8. So download it right now if you haven't already. Now that we've covered the basics of UV mapping you are gonna need some legit image editing software. So before I cover any more Blender tutorials I just wanted to take a step back and make sure that we're all on the same page here. We will be doing all of our image editing in the GIMP. If you follow the link in the description and click on the little orange button you'll get the installer. And from that point just double click on it, install and say yes to everything. You'll get it on your computer no big deal. For those of you who don't know GIMP is like the 2D version of Blender. It's one of the best image editing software's you're going to find and it is totally free. Imagine Photoshop but more affordable. Once you have the GIMP on your computer the last thing that you will need to download is a normal map plugin which you can find a link for in the description. Once you download the zip you are going to need to find two places on your computer. The first one is in local disc C program files GIMP 2 lib GIMP 2.0 and plugins. The second place you'll need to find is in local disc C program files GIMP 2 and bin. Once you have found those two locations double click on the zip go inside and drag the file called normal map into the plugins area and then drag the 3DLL files into the bin area. And that's it. If you join me next video I will teach you exactly how to create all the most important types of maps that you will be using in Blender 2.8. It's gonna be fun so I hope you look forward to it. As always thank you so much for watching. If you enjoyed this video please don't forget to like and subscribe. Hope you have a fantastic day and I'll see you around.


In this step, we're going to take a look at how you make things glow using the Arnold renderer. And we're going to do it specifically on a couple of liquids that are inside our flasks. In order to do this, then, we're going to need to go into the hypershade just to update those materials. So I'm going to stop my IPR rendering for now. And what I'm also going to do is just press 6 in that view there, because now that I'm using Arnold lights, they're not showing up in the hardware renderer viewport 2.0. So I might as well turn lighting off so that I can see what I'm doing. Okay, let's go into our hypershade. We'll start on the red liquid first, I think. I'll just press 6 in there as well. Okay, so I'm looking for M underscore health liquid. Here it is. You can see this is kind of how it's looking right now. What I want to do is go to emission. And the way I remember that it's emission is because we want it to emit to light. So we need emission for this. We're going to choose a pretty bright red color for this. Like that. And then all you need to do is up the weight and you'll see that it starts to glow. Even in this view here it starts to glow. And this is another one of those sliders that can go past 1 if you want it to. If you need a stronger glow effect. But we'll leave it at 1 for now and change it if we need to. I'll just repeat this for the manual liquid then. So I want to change the color to a blue. I'll just go for that deep blue color there and we will whack the weight all the way up. And they're going to start glowing. What I'm also going to do though just before I start rendering this to see how it's looking. Is change the specular color. So I'm going to make it a light blue for the blue liquid. And for the red liquid I'm going to make it a light red which will probably look pink. So we'll choose our red color and we'll just add a bit of white into it. You see what that's doing is the specular is the shiny bits of it. And we want it to be kind of shiny red. Okay that should look good. So now that we're done with that we'll just minimize the hyper shade for a sec. I might want to come back into it. And we're going to turn our viewport back to the Arnold renderer. And I want to zoom in a little bit now because it's these bottles that I'm most concerned with. And let's just hit play and see how they come out. That's how it's coming out for now which I think looks pretty good. The liquids certainly look like they're glowing. I am going to make one change though and it's because of the way that this glass reacts if anything even slightly overlaps it. What I'm going to do, I'll just turn this off for a second. I'm just going to shrink the liquid down inside the flask to make sure that's not happening. So I'll just close those. We'll go into flask glass one and get the liquid. And I'm just going to use my scale tool. I just want to bring it down a little bit, not much at all. Just to make sure that it's inside the container. And we'll do it with the other one. Same thing again, just bring it in slightly. And just to see what happens if we really dial up the emission, I'm going to take it up to about 200 on each. So we'll do 200 on that one. There we go. And on the health liquid we'll do 200 again. And then we'll see how this is looking. So that rendering's finished then and I think I'm happier with the glow now. So it really is now starting to impact things away from the liquid itself. So you can see it's hitting the table, it's hitting the cork. You can definitely see it on this candlestick as well. But now that we've got a mostly dark scene with some really bright spots in it, we're getting all these little render artifacts up here and especially on the table. And these are things that we're going to need to fix. So our next step is going to be about setting up for a final render so that we get a nice looking image out of this so that we can put up on our blog or whatever and have people be proud of us. So I will see you in the next step where we're going to create quite a sexy looking render of our scene. Game Dev Academy is graciously supported by these absolute legends.

Hello and welcome to the session. Today I will help you solve this question. The question says, what is a regular polygon? State the name of a regular polygon of three sides, four sides and six sides. So let's see the solution. A polygon with equal sides and equal angles is called a regular polygon. Now, if the number of sides of the polygon is three, then that regular polygon is called an equilateral triangle and a polygon with number of sides as four is called a square and a polygon with number of sides as six is called a regular hexagon. Hence, our final answer in this case is a polygon with equal sides and equal angles equilateral triangle, regular hexagon. Hope you enjoyed the session. Have a good day.

Hi, this is Jan Brearden and I am the host of the Kindest Connection which is a fabulous show that we are able to air every third Thursday of each month and this particular Thursday here in March on March 17th I have two very very special guests near and dear to my heart. I've enjoyed every show so far but the fact that I have the guests that I have with me today means a great deal to me and I just wanted to be able to introduce Jan and Mike's, my brother Mike and his wife Jennifer Reardon's children. I have Josh Reardon here and he is 14 years old and I have Avery Reardon here and she is 16. So today we are going to discuss very openly and looking forward to having a nice conversation. Oops I'm sorry I left out Aspen Reardon over here. This cute little she is my other niece and we'd love to have Aspen here with us as well and we have all our sparky Kindest Bears thanks to Vermont Teddy Bear. They created this bear in honor of Jennifer Reardon for her mantra of being kind, loving, caring, and sharing so we have Kindest Bears that have brought a lot of compassion and love to many many people. Vermont Teddy Bear has been fabulous with endorsing the mantra that Jen had and so today we're going to talk about being able to look at kindness through a young adult's perspective. You know as adults we might have some preconceived notion of what kindness means but I think it's really important to know how that begins and how in this day and age with all of the bullying going on in schools and just the world is obviously in a tough place right now and how young adults can really make a difference in the world. So I'd like to start by just asking my first question to Avery and to Josh and we'll take it from there but I'd like to begin with you Josh if I may and just ask you what your definition of kindness is. Kindest to me is really just what you put out in the world is what comes back to you in a kind way and if you put out something that's kind in a in a very nice and polite way or you just you're there for somebody yes it's the best way to to just have happiness and kindness in the world and every day we strive to make the world a better place so just by helping hand is always the biggest part of kindness and so yeah that's what I think and I believe it's beautiful that's a great perspective. Avery what are your thoughts on what kindness is the definition of kindness to you? I would say it's not always the big things in life but just the little things you do for people like holding the door complimenting them or just being respectful towards people. Very nice I love it I love it let's see what else we have here how do you how do you feel as though kindness has impacted your life Josh? So in my life like it's a I grew up with a fortunate very lucky to have two great parents that raised me amazingly and so kindness to me would be anything that they do for me to to help me or to come from me like it could be making me breakfast it could be buying me a bat it could be like giving me a ride to school like it's all like like Avery said it's like the little things in in life that people do for you that you don't really understand and a lot of people don't a lot of people take it for granted and I always try to think about how that is impacting my life. A lot of people overlook those little things that happen and when you stop and think about it it really fills you up to know how other people care about you and how much that can make you feel better about yourself as well.  I would say that with the kindness that I'm given I'm able to share it with other people so with having such kind parents and people around me who really care and love for me they think it's really easy for me to take how they love me and show that towards other people. Perfect that makes a big difference yeah. Josh how would you say that kindness could help to reduce bullying in school? That's a great question so bullying in schools is not a good thing obviously and it's hard for a lot of people to go through something who's bullying you because you feel like you don't have help sometimes but when someone's getting bullied the bully always has something going on with them to make them feel this way to make them want to hurt other people and so if you show them more kindness than like you know how to show you just give them as much kindness as possible I feel that that can really fix a lot of bullies' mentalities to the way they treat people so yeah. Good how about you Avery what would you say could be done to reduce bullying? Yeah I agree with Josh I think that instead of having harsh reactions to bullies with putting them in detention or kind of I don't know just giving them harsh words it should be like things that they could do to be kind towards community and if you see that someone is being bullied I think that as kids we should step in first and try to give them ways to be kind to others because we're the same age so we know how to connect to that or we can help more than like if older people have to get involved it might be different from the point of view so I think point to showing kindness to them and showing them ways to be kind to two people instead of one. So Josh what do you could you give us an example of something that you have done or has been done to you or both regarding kindness or compassion or understanding like what comes to mind for you? So like I said I grew up in a very kind family that just always was there for me whenever I needed anything so I don't think that there's one really big thing that sticks out that was the kindness I think that everything that is done for me is just done with such care kindness and so I'm very fortunate to have that a lot of people don't have that and I want them to have that and that's like one of the main reasons for this podcast and for this TV show sorry and my dad's foundation that's like one of the main purposes of it is to just go out of the world and show people that there are good people out here that care for them that want them to be good so yeah but there's not just one big thing it's everything that I do for other people mostly and everything that's done to me that could be making you awful or giving me a boat ride or anything that is just something that to be grateful for and I'm grateful every day for everything that I ever have and sometimes when I'm not grateful I just think about the the times that I need to be grateful the things that I have and there's a lot of unfortunate people out there which is really unfortunate so I think that just life my life is very kind and caring and blessed right how do you think you can carry that forward into the community so that more people will have just even a bit of that in their heart so yeah so that's kind of what the foundation is all about it's really just giving to people that don't have kindness in their life or they're just feeling down and they just can't get themselves back together so giving is just a very great thing I think that our foundation really displays that can you tell us a little bit more about the foundation so our family's motto was always to be kind loving caring and sharing and so so my dad started a foundation for my mom it's about just giving back to the community what they gave to us and really just displaying how kind our albuquerque is really because albuquerque is a great city to live in and we just want to display how it is and I think we're 26th we're the 26th kind of city in the world we're in the in the country so we're trying to get to number one but I mean it's just to just be kind to people it always lightens their day it makes people feel happy that's awesome I mean what do you think as far as you know either a kind act that you've done or somebody has done for you to get you to where you are today yeah like I said I think it's the small things I don't think there's one big thing that stands out kind of like you all said right but I think what the foundation is doing is are the really big things that stand out to me like giving back to our community or my team for volleyball we go do food drives and stuff like that so I think those things just giving back to the community like even if you're not hands-on with someone I'm helping them on the street just being able to go to Roadrunner Food Bank is a great place to go to package meals for homeless and it could be as big as that we're just holding the door for someone exactly thank you yeah I love it Josh how about um let me see how I really wonder what the word is but what would you say you can do when you're not really feeling kind and it happens to all of us we can't deny that there are moments when we're down and it's a little bit more challenging to be harder to be kind at that time how can you be kind under stress and under duress because that's when I think other people lash out and that's what we have to diffuse so how do you do that yourself so to me this is kind of like a personal question because everybody handles it differently so to think about now for me there I have a lot of stuff that I could just think about and be grateful for and that gets me back in the kindest mood but I want to talk about people that don't have exactly stuff to be grateful for and I've always wondered how they get back to be because there's a lot of kind of people out there that really they could not be kind if they if they like because of their situation exactly but they are and so for me what I think happens is is they they they find hope they find hope for themselves they find hope for others they find they find a way to be kind in a hopeful way and so much is giving them a dollar to go get food or giving them a meal or giving them a drink or giving them a pillow or giving them a blanket right just all these things just puts hope in their soul to go another day to survive another day and move on keep progressing right small increments like that right doesn't look too far ahead just kind of stay in that moment and try to feel better because I feel that it always works out the long run for those people definitely that's great how about you Avery um I would say that it is hard for me to be kind whenever I am in a hard tough situation or I'm not I'm stressed about school so I think the first thing I need to do is be kind to myself and take a moment to just have some self-care within myself take care of my body take care of my mental state and until then just kind of be as kind as I can to people just instead of I don't I don't have to go out of my way to be kind to them instead be kind to myself first but don't be rude to them and just kind of let them do their thing until I figure out my thing and then I can go back to going out of my way to be kind to them right that's good that's healthy that's what we need to do and that makes for a better community better relationships better friendships so let's see Aves can you tell us a little bit about the junior board and what the goals are for is you're involved and maybe just tell us a little bit about the Jennifer Rubin Foundation given your role as a member of the junior board yeah so uh the first meeting we have for the junior board was kind of a while ago um we haven't really met again since then but I remember at that meeting we did talk about doing things for a home lesson um food drives and stuff like that um we also picked a um from profit to give money to and I feel like that is a great way to help in the community there's a lot of um profits out there that are helping and instead of being hands on with people and if you don't want to do volunteer work and if you have you are fortunate enough giving money to our people who are helping others it is a great way to help the community definitely yeah it's good how about you Jeff what what is your take as far as your role and how it impacts the community by what you do on the Jennifer Rubin Foundation junior board yeah so me and Avery uh we came to that with idea of a junior board and he was hands on with it he said to do is a great idea and so we run it out of the Albuquerque community foundation building and yeah so Avery kind of covered it it's a non-profit we give it out to a non-profit almost like every six months I'd like to say and that's just really a way to it's me and Avery's way to be a part of what on that is created and really give back to the community as a young kid or as a young adult right so to give back to the community in a different way uh as a board uh it's really best good do you feel as though your friends have noticed a difference in you now that you are so focused on sharing kindness so you'd have to ask that question but uh I feel that it's in yourself yeah I feel that I have become more of a kind person uh because of our foundation because of what you're doing like every uh every person that just wants to help just warms my heart because this is really what my mom would want exactly so uh this is just really warms my heart so yeah perfect I love it how about you Avery um I would say yeah I would say before I was kind but I think I'm very more like approach to it and I I understand how to be kind to people if I see someone down I can cheer them up and just more prone to it good yeah and how about at school Josh are there any programs that are in place that revolve around kindness or sharing compassionate you know understanding ways so we go to a me and Avery both go to a great school Avery's a sophomore I'm an eighth grader and uh so we go to a very uh fortunate school in a way that they want you to be kind to others they want you to uh be yourself they don't want you to just be another kid they want you to grow as a human being as yourself and not as anybody else and uh so they have so many like different clubs in there and uh you can join any of them there is a kindness club at our school and they do do a lot of stuff for the community I think uh kindness does start with the community in my opinion uh actually kind of start for yourself then goes to your community but yeah so our school has a kindness club and they're just they go around and they're just very kind to other people sometimes they give a cookie to the kid that's sad or sometimes just the little things like Avery said that really like the kids they wouldn't feel that good I love it how about you Avery what do you say about the school as far as some different programs that are in place that help yeah um there's a another club called Helping Hands that I was with last year and one of the little things that we did was during the food drive um for the elderly people um we went and we gave roses and just a nice card to the people um just to lighten their day just something small to do for them also our school is connected with the app so everyone at our school is they see an act of kindness they're able to walk it so I think that's our school is doing really good involving kindness throughout wonderful and do you find that that's the case at most schools or is that unusual yeah I feel like some schools um are doing better with kindness and our app is actually connected towards some schools um throughout Albuquerque um there are some schools that have difficulty with it because of the students or just the district that it's in but um I feel like there are kind people there and I think those people struggle with being kind towards the other kids because they feel like it's um different and it's hard to be different especially in high school but I think once those kids reach out and are kind towards others that it will be kindness is going to be spread everywhere it would be nice to just think of it as the new normal yeah like all of a sudden it's just that's the way it is and it becomes part of our DNA really it's more of a culture yeah Josh maybe you can tell us a little bit about our day yesterday when we went over to um just this kindergarten class and how uh great that felt just give us a little background on that we went over to a kindergarten classroom uh and we got to really just put a light on kids day there and I don't know if they were having bad day or not and some of them were having a good day and this made it better but all I know is this this particular moment made those kids so happy it just warmed my heart to see every every little kid so happy and so uh we went over and we really just told them or talked to them about kindness and how they can what they have done in to help us because everyone has helped the community in different ways uh through kindness or just through like helping someone and so uh but yeah so we got to go over there and really just got to be with the kids and hear what they've done for the community and it was really nice good. Ayesha what do you have to say about our day yesterday over in the classroom um I would say that it was really heartwarming to know that even five-year-olds understand the concept of what complex kindness is it was so cool to hear we asked each one of them to stand up and talk about one kind thing they did and it was super cool to hear the nice things they were doing within their family or at school and I think it was really like they loved the bear they were so intrigued with Sparky they loved him so much and I think it's just really cool to understand that like it's hard to understand kindness sometimes but it sounds like these kids have such a good grasp of it and they were so grateful when they received we gave them bracelets and so that made their day and it was good to know that they were starting their day off with a kind thing or just even thinking about something kindly did and they can redo that and I know some of the other kids were helping just their friends in the classroom so it was it was it really was. Josh what would you say you know you get up in the morning do you try to you know take a minute and start your day with that grateful heart or does it come throughout the day like what would how would you describe like the best day that you could have for yourself. So my best day would be probably every day I mean I wake up to a great house and a roof over my head and watered food and and I'm just grateful for that right off the bat and you think about that when you get up you you feel that so I'm gonna be honest not every time of course not always but I try to that's the biggest part of the day is the morning is when you wake up how you feel right how you're gonna act that day how you're gonna get up and push through the day and there's there's going to be hatred there's going to be stuff throughout the day that you're not going to like it's how you can come back from that and exactly answer to that. So how about you Avery when you start the day out what what's your plan for the day how do you go into it. I would say that being kind to myself first is a really good thing and starting the day off telling myself how to be kind to myself and just really taking care of my body and then I would say just again the little things when I see someone if I think they look good then I'll let them know and I think it does come throughout the day for me if people are treating me kind then I have a more want to be kind to other people um but I feel like it's I am grateful for and each morning it's good to know that like I know that there will be kind people around me at some point but yeah that's great So Josh what do you think about fast forward Josh Reardon's you know 21 years old what do you what do you want to see as yourself as a young man? I want to see compassion it would be the biggest part I want I want to see um uh just I would want to see Albuquerque being so kind that people want to be around each other and to see each other so yeah so I just think that in the future the world could be a lot kinder than it already is a lot a lot kinder and so I think that every day we just get even more kind and hopefully when I'm 21 we can be the number one kind of city in the world. How many names you're fast forward you're 21 years old what what do you see yourself looking like at that point? I would hope to be able to um be kind towards others still and just like more and instead of doing little things I think it would be good to start doing bigger things um and also just like reaching out to more people to be kind um not in Albuquerque but other places as well um I agree with Josh being the number one city would be great right and I think just carrying on the legacy of always being kind living caring and sharing is the best we can do with things and I think just always being kind towards others is kind of where I see it good and then Josh can you think of a time when say you were at school or at baseball and you saw one of the guys or or girls you know at school that was a little down not having a good day how would you handle that? Well sometimes someone just needs time to put it out there just cry just do whatever but um so I would just kind of approach them and uh then if they ask me to leave the bee I just leave the bee then in an hour I'd go back and check on them and make sure they were okay but um if someone just needs a hug or needs a helping hand or something it's always nice to know that like for me it's always nice to know that you're here for me you're here involved down I need a hug or I need something right you're here for that I mean not just that but I'm just saying like you're here for me right and you're here for me because you're my sister like so I just have a lot of people that are there for me but some kids don't have anybody and so just to be that person for somebody is a really big thing. Beautiful. I have a dream have you noticed somebody that's down and how would you handle that? Yeah I think the first thing to do is just ask them if they're okay and if they don't want to talk about it then you did what you could to help them at that point just checking in with them like continuously I think is good maybe not like two seconds later but a little like an hour or two later just making sure that they're okay because all you can do is help um all you can do is ask yeah and if they don't want to talk about it then that's okay and that's on them I think just um checking in with them and checking in especially if it gets like too super bad with their other peers or teachers or guardians just making sure that they're okay and maybe like bring them a treat to school or just act extra kind and I'm not they have this yeah we only have about five minutes left so why don't we you know just give a shout out to your dad as far as the foundation and what he has done and what type of impact that has had on your life I mean you've talked about kindness and thankfully you've had that since you were born but now things you know have changed and you have both done an amazing job accepting the reality and watching your dad really carry the mantra of your mom through you out into the world so what would you say Josh that you're most grateful for as far as all that your dad has done whether it be the foundation or other than that I'm just grateful that he's here for us every day that's right right he he wants our opinion on stuff that that really is not our voice to say anything and so he is not only carrying mom's legacy he wants us to be a part of it exactly he wants us to be involved with it he doesn't want us to just sit there and watch it work he just wants he wants like every decision that he makes is passed by by us yes now maybe some decisions we don't like but he'll still do because that's what he needs to have that's what needs to happen but it's kind of like a presidency yes absolutely he's the president we're just the council and we just listen and we just advise yeah we just your perspective is important really uh telling what what we see and how we would fix it and uh or how we would do it and he takes it into accountability and that's really what I appreciate because he can't always take our opinion 100% of the time and I don't expect it to but I the part of the process to listen and he really does do that so I really just thank you for that so dad if you're listening and and along the same lines I mean I don't think we could come up with a better example unfortunately of somebody taking you know a complete you know tragedy and turning it into something that has provided so much good and so for that what what comes to mind for you and if you were to describe your dad to somebody who didn't know him and somebody that comes out of such tragedy and sets such an example for a way to get through that you say like power through how would you describe your dad the strongest kindest man in the world the person that that if you need helping and he's there right away and the person that is there for you and you don't have anybody the the person that I want to live up to is there you go all right about you is what would you say to that whole scenario of taking the most tragic situation possible and finding just something good about it and carrying on what you've done how do you how do you attribute you know that to your dad instilling that in you I feel like the biggest thing for me uh was the isotopes game when oh yes yes um that was such a good happy feeling and just talking a little bit about that event because that was awesome yeah so we actually have there was an isotopes game and we just the finest night yeah it was my aunt hark and we had our booth and we were giving things away and we connected people with the app um so that was really good and um I think that's when I like noticed that we did make such a bad thing in life something good and we found a positive in it and I think that our whole family is so strong for that and I think none of us could have done it without anyone especially my dad but I think the foundation is just a way to show love and kindness through our family and also to other people I think it's good for other people to see the love that our family has absolutely what an example yes he's the hardest working man you'll ever meet yeah that's for sure non-stop right and speak you refer to the app and and obviously I know what the app is but can you tell us a little bit about it yeah so the app is um you can go to the um internet and search the Jennifer Gruden foundation and you can go to my kindness app um and you can every time you um so you walk in and every time you see an act of kindness or receiving acts of kindness you can just put it in there and everybody can go through and see your acts of kindness and it's just you reach a million acts of kindness um like a month or two ago and that was really good big celebration yeah it was a big celebration and so now we're just pushing through and trying to get a lot of millions yes right and like the kindergarten kids said yesterday what was their number they said instead of like hitting a truly what did they say they said google yeah like the biggest number they could think of right so right Josh what about can you tell us a little bit more about the app some of the acts of kindness that have been logged on there that stick out in your mind so um so acts of kindness on the app they can be anonymous and they can be put out there but there's so many good people in the world and like every time you look at them you're just like there is people in the world that care and want to be kind and um so yeah so it goes it ranges from a million cans of soup to a food bank to help someone pick up trash exactly it just maybe it just ranges from everything you I think that's what we love so much about it is there's like a billion different kind acts that you can do in the world exactly and I think that we've seen all the bill right and what I like about the way it's posted it's not you can post what you do you can post what you saw somebody else do but I love the fact that that just makes you feel better when you read about something that somebody else did or you hear about something that somebody else did it doesn't have to be you're not even involved but it just makes you feel good about human kindness and and the fact that you know the more of that that you hear it just sets a tone for a better culture yeah and I would say if you're having a down day one of the ways to be kind to others is just read some of the big one that's a great point it really does it lifts your spirits you just feel like you know we're just a little part of this big world and sometimes we get weighed down with our you know day to day issues but then you look at the bigger picture and you realize you know there's there's many more things that are more important than certainly the material things and it's great to recognize somebody for that gift that they have of of being loving so we only have a minute left any questions that either one of you would like to ask me why don't you want to start this TV show oh I wanted to start this because we had a podcast that was running and that was fun but it wasn't reaching as many people and thankfully channel 17 which is town meeting TV right in Burlington Vermont was I put in a proposal and they were willing to try this which was a little bit out of their box but again in this day and age people are gravitating toward things such as this and thankfully they were gracious enough to make my request a reality and this is the third episode so far and it you know something that I would love to continue with and just even if one or two people take something away from this each episode I will feel as though it was worthwhile and the support that I've had from town meeting TV warms my heart do we want to talk about the deans player yeah let's do that and then we'll call it a wrap but we right last year when we were really going through this you know awareness of acts of kindness deans was a local partner which was amazing and here is the flyer that they were able to put on every pizza that was sold yeah and it just talks about the app and how to get signed up so that everybody is logging acts of kindness and it worked it was great and deans stepped right up and they were just a fabulous partner there have been so many wonderful partners here in albuquerque and again as I mentioned back in Vermont town meeting TV has been great and also from on teddy bear we have a couple of other collaborations underway Colchester high school which is where Jen graduated from has planted a tree and now their art students are working on mosaic tiles to tell the story of Jen being kind loving caring sharing that will surround the tree as you enter into the school because that school was near and dear to her heart and this is a way for her legacy to carry on locally as well as nationally as it has but this is it kids it's a wrap so you just have to remember to be nice to me once we turn this camera off okay do I have a yes do we have a yes I'm there okay that's a wrap thank you
