One of my favorite tiling window managers is the Qtile tiling window manager. It is a very nice tiling window manager It is written and configured entirely in Python It is basically an Xmonet clone just rewritten in Python rather than Haskell and one of the really great things about Qtile Is it comes with a built-in panel that is very fully featured. It has a million built-in widgets So let me show you something that I've found today that I didn't know existed So I was checking out the built-in widgets for Qtile if you do a Google search or a DuckDuckGo search for Qtile built-in widgets you'll get this page and it lists all of the widgets Here in the left hand column that are available for your panel and by the panel I'm talking about the panel and Qtile. So everything on this panel is one of those widgets on that page And while I was reviewing that page. I noticed that every single widget on this page It has available keys that you can use as far as setting margin and padding background color foreground color Font and things like that and I noticed this right here. I don't know if you guys can see that Let me see if I can zoom in a little bit every widget has this key here mouse callbacks What is that? Well, that is a dictionary of mouse button press callback functions Basically, you can set functions that when you press a button on the mouse on that widget It runs that function. So for example button one on the mouse is your typical, you know, left-click button and We can write a function. So when I for example left-click on my Bitcoin ticker here, you know It actually runs some kind of function. We're gonna have to write a function for it But that's pretty neat. I actually did not know that the Qtile widgets had these mouse callbacks I don't think they've been around that long. See, I've been a Qtile user for many years Seven or eight years probably and of course Qtile, you know keeps being developed They keep adding new features and my configs date back so many years, you know I don't often go to the documentation and look at some of the new features They're adding so when I saw this mouse callback functionality I was kind of blown away because I immediately started thinking about all the cool things that I can do by being able to click On all my widgets and that's exactly what I think I'm gonna do I'm gonna go ahead and pull up my config and I'm gonna start adding some cool mouse callback functions So the first thing I'm gonna do is I'm gonna open up my Qtile config So let me launch that and I'm gonna go ahead and launch this in VM I'm gonna zoom in a little bit and in my config if I do a search for all caps widgets I have a section here this commented section here called widgets and of course, this is my panel It's basically a widget list for everything that is in my panel Everything you see as far as group box, which is the list of windows the run prompt Which is a D menu prompt. You won't see it since I'm not running D menu at the moment window name Of course is the name of the window with focus right now It's the alacrity terminal and then you see I have my Bitcoin ticker. I have a thermal sensor for CPU temp I have Pac-Man updates and various text box widgets Which are just these unicode arrows that give me this power line effect pretty straightforward actually if you take a look at My config you should be able to figure out very easily how these this whole widget system works You see I define a widget and then I have a list of keys that I define such as font size margin padding border width Etc. You can get the keys for each widget on the built-in widgets page every widget in the documentation We'll list all the available keys for you and one of the things I think I'm going to do is I would like on my panel I want some kind of start menu button I want some kind of icon or image that I can press that brings up a menu system of some kind even though It's a tiling window manager. I'm gonna start making this more desktop environment like I want some kind of Menu button that when I press it something comes up even if it's just the menu or Roe fee, you know Some kind of run command prompt So if I go back to the built-in widgets and look for widgets that I could use I notice there is this image widget. It is called widget dot image the capital I in image So that's what I'm gonna do. I notice it does support mouse callback events too. So let's start there So I'm gonna go back here and let's add one of these image widgets So in VM I'm gonna hit o on the keyboard to start a new line here and I'm gonna add widget dot Image and then opening parentheses. I'm gonna space down a little bit I'm gonna go ahead and add the closing parentheses and a comma just because I know if I don't go ahead and add that I may forget it later. It's gonna cause me some problems and then for the keys the available keys I know for sure I need a file name because we need the file name of the image That's going to be the image widget and then I know I'm gonna use the mouse callbacks keys as well I don't know if I will use any of the other ones. I may Let's go back and I'm gonna go ahead and add file name space equals and then in quotes I need the location to the file name and I noticed the documentation did say that the tilde character Was okay to use in the file name. So the little squiggly tilde character That's your alias for your home directory and I know I have got a Directory on my system at dot config slash q-tiles slash icons and that's where I keep icons for the various layouts But I also have an icon in there called python dot PING So let me go ahead and just add that and that will be our start menu button And then at the end of that line very important Do not forget the comma if you forget the comma it will error out on you and then after that Let's add the new line and mouse underscore callbacks space equals space and then how do we do mouse callbacks? I'm gonna have to review the documentation here mouse callbacks looks like we need to do these inside the curly braces so let me go back and I'm gonna do an opening and closing curly brace and Then if I look deeper into the documentation I did notice that I found this page here for basically your widget base fall And I noticed it does give me an example of exactly what to do with a mouse callback event Needs to be in the curly braces and then in single quotes the button on the mouse We're using and then a colon and then the name of whatever function we're writing Let me get back over here. So if we do this exactly the way it's suggested We need single quotes and inside single quotes. I'm gonna do button one because that's the left-click button on the mouse That's the one I want to do this for and then what do we want this image widget to do? Well, I want it to run some function I'm gonna call it open D menu because I think that's a simple function to write and I don't need a Comment at the end of this because that was the last key that we're adding So I think we're good there. The only thing is we need to actually write a function now So let me go up here.  So let's go ahead and define Open D menu and then in parentheses q-tile And then this is very important at the end of this line We need a colon and then let's go ahead and hit enter and then make sure you are spaced over about four spaces here in Vium it automatically spaces me over it knows exactly what needs to go on here and then q-tile dot cmd underscore spawn so this is a q-tile command to spawn something What do we want to spawn well in parentheses and in single quotes? We want to spawn this command D menu underscore run That is your command line way of launching D menu now if the punctuation and everything is correct I could colon W to write this in Vium and then super shift R to restart q-tile And we didn't get any errors and my python dot ping image is Loading right here and let's see if D menu runs when I click on it with the mouse D menu runs when I click on it with the mouse How cool is that escape and D menu goes away click on it D menu launches and of course I could get much more creative with that mouse callback So if I go down to where I have my memory widget You see I have memory and how much memory is in use versus my total memory So I have 64 gigs of RAM and I'm using about 3.3 gigs and what I'm going to do is I'm going to call a mouse callback function here and I created this function open H top and if I scroll back up I've already created the function here open H top. What is it going to do? It's going to spawn the alacrity terminal and launch H top inside alacrity So let me go ahead and write and restart and if I didn't create any kind of errors here Okay, it restarted just fine. So now when I click on the memory widget It launches H top for me that way if there's any memory problems You know, I just click on the memory widget H top opens up and I can see what is sucking up You know all of that RAM I'm going to go ahead and create a mouse callback for my volume because that's another one that I Suspect I will need something for along the way. I'm going to create a new function for it I'm going to call it open PAHVU because I think what I want to do is click on the volume and then it opens PAHVU control and I've already created the function I've defined open underscore PAHVU to run Qtile command spawn PAHVU control. So let me write Restart and if there's no errors restarts just fine. And now when I click on volume When I click on volume, it's muting and unmuting. So I had already had something set up for volume Yeah, I think that the problem with the volume widget is it already has mouse functionality built in by default the left mouse button Mutes and un-mutes and then the scroll wheel can lower the volume and raise the volume if you do the scroll wheel So I probably will scrap that idea of using mouse callbacks with the volume widget because it's already got a lot going on What I may do instead is do something for my Pac-Man updates widget. So let me find the widget for Pac-Man here it is and Go ahead and paste a mouse callback and I'm going to do Instead of open PAHVU control I'm going to do open Pac-Man and escape and let me get back up to where I was defining those functions since I didn't use Open PAHVU I'm going to rename this to open Pac-Man and what I want this to do I want this to launch our terminal. So I'm going to run a LACRETY dash E And then I wanted to run this command sudo Pac-Man dash capital S lowercase y lowercase u escape Let's right. Let's restart QTAL and if all of that worked correctly now when I click on my Pac-Man updates widget Which I don't know if I have any updates. Let's click on it and see I notice clicking on my updates widget is actually not doing anything There it goes. I don't know why it didn't work at first But now you know what I think I think it took a few seconds for the widget to actually run whatever it runs to figure out How many updates are available and once the widget actually ran and displayed the number of updates now clicking on it actually launches these terminals And these terminals of course are asking me for my sudo password because it opened a LACRETY and it's trying to run sudo Pac-Man dash S-Y-U and if I entered my password it actually does run sudo Pac-Man S-Y-U And if I declined to take this update right now because it looks like it'll take a while The terminal closes immediately Because it's one of these weird situations where you know when you're trying to run Launching a terminal and then launching a command-lined application from the terminal it closes immediately Once it's done or once you cancel it Well, I think that's all I'm going to do with these mouse callback functions for right now I'm gonna go ahead and push my config to my GitLab for those of you that want to examine my config to see How exactly you need to go about adding these mouse callbacks to your widgets, but I think it's really neat I'm actually kind of impressed for you know just spending a few minutes on this I kind of like the Python logo and the fact that when I click on it, you know, I get a D menu It actually launched D menu on the wrong screen that time. Let me make sure I have focus on the right monitor Yeah, you guys see at that time That's pretty cool And of course instead of the menu I could have it launch Rofi or you launcher or Synapse or or anything you want But I just thought that was really neat because I know a lot of especially newer Totaling window manager users kind of miss having a button they can click on and access some information I just think that's kind of neat to have in my config. All right before I go I need to thank a few special people I need to thank Michael Gabe, Heplew, Nate, Corbinian, Mitchell, Entropy UK, Arch5530, Chris, Chuck, DJ, Donnie, Dylan, George, Omri, Paul, Sean, Tobias, and Willie these guys They are the producers of the show without these guys You wouldn't know about mouse callbacks on these panel widgets in Qtah. You wouldn't know about it Also, I need to thank each and every one of these ladies and gentlemen all these names you're seeing on the screen right now This is all my supporters over on patreon because this channel is supported by you guys the community No corporate sponsors here at distro tube.

What kind of person is she?   So before the break, we talked about the principles and you've now shared a few of the challenges that you face. Those are the value statements, right? Kind of those overarching beliefs that this is what inclusion means. And then if we believe in those things, then what does it look like on the floor?  And in the research that Special Link has done, they've identified 11 practices that can be self-assessed or evaluated. And again, those are provided in huge detail in this book, the inclusion rating scale, which is kind of like an early childhood environment rating scale on seven points. And you sort of see where you're at and set some goals for moving things along. So the practices, oops, where'd they go? There they are. There's 11 of them in total. Again, we could spend a whole day just learning about each of these. But I want to focus on two in particular this morning. And that is individual program plans and involvement of typical children. Last night over dinner, we had a little conversation about what's the transition to school experience like. And that's a whole other conversation that we won't have time for this morning. We could also be spending time talking about the physical environment or about what kinds of toys are in place or what role parents have. But just for now, let's talk about two of them. The individual program plan and the involvement of typically developing kids. And I think they're really linked strongly to the values and the principles. There's been a lot of research done by people who are researchers. I'm not. I'm more of an educator or a trainer. But Dr. Don Aliro at the University of Guelph recently completed a study that looked at how do those practices and principles hang together? And is there empirical evidence that we're actually measuring what we say we are and is this really what inclusion is? So I'll refer you to the Special Link website for those of you that are researchers. If you'd like to look at those in more detail on the report is up there. But for now talking about two in particular. Let me take, show you first this individualized program plan cycle. This is from a book by Ingrid Crowther who's an Albertan and someone who's written a book about inclusion in Canadian early childhood classrooms that I refer you to. And she talks about how do we do individualized program planning. So, you know, is it about pulling children out? Is there more to it than that? And she talks about we begin at the bottom of the arrow by observing. We get to know the children we work with. We watch what they like, what they don't like. Which children are they interested in and how can we kind of build on the things that they are already interested in to help them move along, you know, to reach goals. Then we begin planning. We plan based on our observations. So we don't just pull something out of a book and say, this would work for this child.  So again, the example about the one, the little one who needed some physical exercises to be done. They had a recipe from the therapist about which exercises they needed to do. They observed that this child cried and screamed every time they tried to do those exercises. They observed that the child was very interested in coming to circle and very interested in his peers and then they planned accordingly. So that's that kind of purposeful planning that we want to do as early learning practitioners. Once we've got a plan, then we implement that plan. If we go back to the top of the arrow, we begin to carry it out. We see, well, does this work or is it not working so well? What changes might we have to make to it? We reflect and we evaluate. We might tweak the plan a little bit. We might say, oh, well, if we do the exercises at the beginning of circle, everybody participates if we do it at the end. Lots of kids have left by then and then this little one doesn't want to do it either. So we plan, we change, we evaluate. And then finally, we adjust and we adapt and we make whatever changes we need to do. So just because the plan's working this week doesn't mean next month the same plan's going to work. Right? That's sort of, I think, something, the golden rule of childcare is being flexible when we're working with little people in early learning programs. We flex accordingly. So I love this as a model for what we do in our individualized planning. So the individual program plan cycle is something that's an ongoing commitment and our day-to-day work. And then if we take a look at involvement of typical children, if we were doing this rating scale, when I'm teaching my students, I'll often say to them, if you don't use anything else from the rating scale, use this one, involvement of typical children, and pay attention to what's going on between the kids. When you ask parents of children with special needs, how do you know inclusion is working, parents will often say, it's when my child gets invited to birthday parties. It's when my child gets invited for sleepovers. That's when I know inclusion is working. So it's not even what goes on in your setting, but extracurricular. What happens there? So what is the relationship like between kids with special needs and children who are typically developing? Are there real friendships there that are going on? And if you could just put that back up one more time, you'll see. And these are things that you can be paying attention to tomorrow when you're back in your programs. Is there a connection? Are children being included in social play? And in fact, this afternoon's workshop is all about social play because I think it's at the heart of what goes on in an inclusive preschool. And are staff being systematic about what they're doing with children to build bridges? Because it doesn't always happen naturally. You've got to be purposeful about it. And is cooperation really being modeled and stressed? And staff will often say to me, well, yes, of course, we don't do competition here. And then I'll say, have you ever said who can be first to wash their hands?  I mean, there might be other reasons why a child's not first to wash their hands. So we have to be cautious about that as well. To me, this is really the barometer of whether inclusion is working, is what's the social relationship all about. So here's Sean again. Sean in the dramatic play area, making soup with his friends. And we know where that led him to and the successes that he's had since. But I want to tell you that inclusion really does make a major impact on children who are typically developing as well. This picture is actually my youngest son Seth's preschool. Let me see if I can see him there. It's too far away. He circled in yellow, isn't he? Yeah, he's in my son. Does this work? There he is. That's my boy, Seth. He's 22 right now. And this is a little boy named David who attended his preschool with him. So let me tell you a story about Seth and David. They started daycare at about the same time. And when I first started going there with Seth, I would see David at that time. He had some pretty significant physical challenges. And he would come to daycare on a little scooter board. And he lay on his belly and he moved his little hands. And he'd sort of scoot in and out amongst all the grown-ups at the cubby area hanging up our kids' jackets. And I would think, oh my goodness, someone's going to step on that child. And slowly, slowly over the next few years, David made a lot of progress. He had some surgeries done on his legs. First, he used a walker. He used some canes. Oh, and by the way, the little scooter board. The other children were so interested in the scooter board that the staff were smart enough to order about 10 more for the gross motor area. And much to the chagrin of all the preschoolers, David was the fastest of everybody. So he was like a little speed demon on there. But slowly over the next few years, the children grew together and Seth would tell me every now and then what David was up to. And I would see today he's using a wheelchair. And a few months later, he was using his walker. One day in kindergarten, I came in to pick up Seth after school at his center. And he came running towards me and leaped into my arms. Mommy, mommy, guess what, guess what? David walked today all by himself. Seth was as excited about David walking as if it would have been him learning to ride his bike without his training wheels or his first tooth fellow.  And I look at my kid and I think, you know, I have three sons. They're all good boys. But Seth is the one who benefited from having attended an inclusive preschool. And he's taken that with him all the years since. So here's another picture. This is my son, Seth, at his grade 12 graduation. And when he came home at the beginning of grade 12, he said, mom, guess who's president of Grant Park High School, the biggest high school in the city of Winnipeg. And I looked at him for a minute and I thought, no, I know it's not you. I just knew he wouldn't have run for student office. But he said to me, mom, Ed, Ed is president. And I knew who he meant right away because Ed had been attending middle school and high school with my son. There's this picture there. Here's a boy who had gone not to my son's preschool, a different preschool, had gone through inclusion over the years, came to high school and ran for president and won. And I thought to myself, how remarkable. You know, actually at the beginning, I had a little bit of a moment where I thought, was that a joke? Like I thought maybe the kids were just doing something mean. And my son was so offended that I would even think that, mom, you know, he had the best platform.  He has to like wade through clouds of smoke to get into the front of the door, you know. I had a recycling program and I'm thinking to myself, what's different here?  And come high school, why wouldn't Ed run for office? And why wouldn't the other kids vote for him? That's what happens when inclusion works. Okay, here's Danny. Danny, as you can see, is a young man with Down syndrome. His mom got in touch with me after hearing me speak at an event in Winnipeg. She's a professor at the University of Manitoba. She wanted to tell me about her boy. He had been to inclusive preschool, to an inclusive Montessori program. Initially, his elementary school wasn't too sure whether he could come, but mom had taken him to the daycare so the school could see him working there and succeeding there. He went through inclusive education. In that picture, he's getting the Duke of Edinburgh Award from the Prince Edward himself for a trip that he and two other boys took to Churchill to see the polar bears there. He's an active community volunteer. Here's a few more pictures of him. Here's his first part-time job at Safeway. So Safeway is one of the employers that's got a commitment to hiring persons with disabilities as part of their workforce. And he worked part-time at Safeway through his high school experience. Then he's now at the University of Manitoba and he's working part-time as a childcare assistant at a childcare center close to the university. And it's a rule now in Manitoba that to work in childcare, even as an assistant, you need to take at least one 40-hour course in early childhood education. So there's no more people working in childcare who are completely untrained, at least one course, right? So Danny had to take that course too. So he went to Red River College and he was accommodated in the sense that he had someone help him, someone read him the tests orally, and he answered orally, but other than that, he completed the curriculum for the program. He ended up with a B-plus in his course and he got a job working at the daycare. So can we just see that picture again? He's very proud. The arrow was pointing to his name badge, which says Danny, childcare assistant. What were some of the challenges of his new job working in a childcare program? The staff at the center had to say, oh, so we're gonna have someone with a disability as part of our team. What's that gonna be like? But they accepted it. Danny himself wasn't too sure what it meant to work at a childcare program. He'd been to one himself, but that was back in the day. His first day of work, he arrived wearing a suit and tie because that's what teachers do. And so they told him, no, it's really okay for you to wear jeans and a hoodie. He was also had a lot of coaching around, it's important that you tell us where you're going. So this whole idea about working as part of a team. But he was really embarrassed to tell the girl teachers that he had to go to the bathroom.  He is counted into ratio. You know, he works with the school age children. Here's a picture of him with those kids. So he's supervising free flow snack at the end of the day. What do you think the message is for these school ages when one of their teachers is a person with Down syndrome? So not only are they benefiting from preschoolers attending the program with various additional needs, but one of the staff as well. Just think it's a remarkable story. And again, the next generation of inclusion that we're seeing. So back to these inclusion practices. And you know, where are the places where we are challenged through involvement of typical children? Where are the places that we're challenged when we try to individualize, when we try to accommodate and modify? And I want to remind you about what that British study pointed out, that you need to identify, understand, and then work to correct those barriers. So it's not always easy. In fact, most of the time, it's hard. But by putting your heads together, you know, by strategizing, how will we make this work? How will we get through those challenges? I just know that you will. And so we're not gonna stop for full discussion of those practices now just because, of course, I've got way too much content. We want to try to get you out of here for lunch at the right time.


And then if you get that damn immigration bill passed to the Senate, if you ever get Teddy Kennedy to catch up with old man Seller, here he is, 70 years old, and he's already got his bill passed, then we'll hijack some of these fellas up there in Brooklyn, and we'll take the pen that we signed the bill with, and we'll go up there and present them, we'll get John McCormick come down from Boston, we'll get you to come up from here, and we'll bring Edgar Hoover to scare everybody, and then we'll go up there to Ellis Island with the old man in there, and get a picture in the paper with him, and salute him, and click her heels. Does that suit you? Will you agree to go along with it? Yes, sir. Are you a Seller man? Yes, sir. All right, okay, that ends it. I'll just get him on. Here's man, he wants to talk to you.  Yeah, I'm all right. What are you going to do finally in my breath to get immigration bill reported? I think we're on the biggest turning now, sir. Did you get the vote on? In the subcommittee. Well, I thought it was the subcommittee. Well, this is just the subcommittee. No, but they promised, these ones promised in the vote, so there's no problem. Is that tomorrow? That's what I'm trying to set up. Either, I'm trying to get late today when I had to leave there, I'm going to get back on it, trying to see whether they just couldn't be late today, but I didn't see any reason why they couldn't. And I had her and Dirkson wanting that, so I think that you might do it. It won't take ten minutes. I'm sure it will.  Manning, can I commit to you? Don't you think the chairman of the committee and Senate committee ought to have his judge cut out? Next, I'm going to get him to report the immigration bill. That goes back to the chairman of the House Committee too. Hello, Nick. You know, the subcommittee of the immigration committee voted out that immigration bill was a ceiling on the Westminster hemisphere. That's very dangerous. Now, I don't know what the full committee will do, what the Senate will do, but if the chance they put the ceiling on, I'm going to raise hell. Now, that points up the need to get proper conferees, because I want to support the House provision. Now, that, if I go down the line in the regular way and appoint the regular conferees, we're lost, because that means they'll vote undoubtedly to put the ceiling on Westminster. Now, I'll need your help then. Damn a lot of help to be able to be a little unorthodox in the appointment of these conferees. Do you follow me? I would have to wait with John McCormick on because I can't take any chances on some of these bastards who will just kick over the traces on me. That's very important. Keep that in mind. Will you, Nick, please? Wait a minute, Mr. President, let's talk. I'll talk to him about technique.


Tonight the DuPont Company brings you the Pinkerton Man starring Lee Bowman on the Cattlecade of America. But first here is Gaine Whitman. Most accidents happen right in the home. Watch out for boiling water in the kitchen. Watch that electric light switch when you're taking a bath. Watch that dark flight of stairs and watch out for rugs and carpets that may trip you or skid out from under you. DuPont rug anchor is a sponge rubber underlay designed to make rugs stay put. It makes them cling like a leech no matter how slippery floors may be and it adds to their life because it keeps dirt from working up from the floor into the back of the rug. Rug anchor is one of the DuPont Company's better things for better living through chemistry. The Cattlecade of America. America. America means skyscrapers and halops, the crack of a pioneers glint lock and the sound of the Riveters machine, the outline of a church steeple against the midnight sky. America is your story. America is you and everyone you know. Tonight we present Lee Bowman in the Pinkerton Man on the DuPont Cattlecade of America. It is the year 1859. In one of the coaches of the train bound for Columbia, Tennessee, a man sits looking calmly at the countryside. He's dressed quietly and you wouldn't look twice at him because, well, because he looks like a hundred thousand other men you've seen. His name, Alan Pinkerton, America's greatest detective. As he sits, another man carrying what appears to be a sample case comes into the coach, looks around for a moment and then... Excuse me, is this seat taken? What? Oh no, no, no. Help yourself. Thanks. Hope you don't mind. No seats on the shady side of the coach. Oh, it's all right. I don't like to sit in the sun myself. Thanks. I'm sorry. I always have trouble with my sample case. I see. What is it this time, Collins? Ties, socks, handkerchiefs. And what's it all about, Chief? Where'd you get on? Last stop. Took a local and caught this train from there. Good. Collins, I'm going through with the case. Yeah, that's what I figured, Chief. All right, what's my job? I don't know yet, but I'll have some use for you. Yeah, but Mr. Pinkerton... Quillen. J.B. Quillen. Well, that's my name, get it? Oh, yeah, all right. A businessman. Retired. Health reasons. Good enough, Mr. Quillen. You stay at the hotel in Columbia. And you? Aborting house, I think. But how long? Well, I don't know. Depends on how tough this will be. Plenty tough, Chief. Case is a year old. Trails as cold as a dog's nose. Yeah, I know. I'll dig around until I find a lead. What kind of a lead in a case that's grown a bin? Oh, that's my job, Collins. Now, when we get to Columbia, you get off first. Go directly to the hotel. Sit tight in our contactures. And that's the story, Collins. Well, don't sound good to me, Chief. Not a lead. Not a single lead. Well, a bank robbery and murder that happened over a year ago, what can you expect? Well, I don't know. Something. Anything. There must be something. Suspects? Four. The President of the Bank gave me the names. Name? Collins, I've eliminated three of those people. Why? There's nothing to tie them in in the first place. All the local police had to go on with suspicion. That's not much. But how about the fourth suspect? A man named Samuel Arthur. Anything on him? No, nothing. Nothing at all. But look, if Arthur's guilty, if you think he's the one, you've got to have something. What about the money from the robbery? Not a penny of it's shown up. That's why I believe the job was pulled by someone in this town. Someone who was afraid to leave. Someone who killed the Watchman and then got panicky. Panicky? I wonder who's played doggo for a year isn't exactly panicky. He's smart. Waiting for the time he can leave. Collins, I'm changing boarding houses. Cookin' bad at the one you're in now? No. The hunting's bad. Samuel Arthur stays at Mrs. Holly's boarding house. Here. Here's the address. All right. What's next? I'm going to find one lead. One clue that'll give me a toehold. I'll see you later. Your last move gives me a triple jump and king me. Well, Mr. Evans, you win again. Yes, sir. I'm afraid I'm still the checker champion of Mrs. Holly's boarding house. No question about that. I resign. Care for another one, Mr. Quillen? Only eight o'clock. No, no, no. Thank you, sir. Tomorrow night, perhaps. Fine, fine. Well, I think I'll turn in then. Oh, there you are.  Yep, yep, and I'm turning in. You keep Mr. Quillen company, Edna. Make him be right at home here. Well, how long are you planning to stay, Mr. Quillen? Oh, that, that all depends. On what, Mr. Quillen? Well, on my health. Oh, what is your ailment? My ailment? Well, it started a little over a year ago, and I, uh... Yes? Uh, wasn't that Mr. Arthur who went past the door then? Well, I didn't see, but I guess it was. Oh. Oh, well, excuse me. I'm rather tired myself. I think I'll turn in, too. Oh, well, maybe we can have a little talk tomorrow night. Oh, that will be delightful, Ms. Oglethorpe. Good night. Good night, Mr. Quillen, and, and sleep tight. Huh? Oh, oh, thank you. Thank you. Hello. Oh, hello. Oh, sorry, I startled you, Mr. Arthur. Oh, not at all, Mr. Quillen. Beautiful evening outside. Yes, yes it is. And I, uh, I was just thinking of going for a walk. You got to come along? Well, I'm a little tired, and I... Uh, perhaps just around the block. No, no, I don't think so. Maybe, uh, tomorrow evening. Oh, all right. Glad to. Glad to. Uh, yes. Oh, nothing. Good night, Mr. Quillen. Good night, Mr. Arthur. Oh, uh, Mr. Quillen. Yes. Are you planning on going into business down here? Business? No, no. I'm retired. Oh. Well, then, you'll be with us for quite a while. Maybe. Uh, I, I don't like to stay in one place very long, Mr. Arthur. Like a change of scenery once in a while. I see. Well, I'll see you tomorrow. Good night. Uh, good night, Mr. Arthur. Oh, right, Mr. Quillen. I thought you'd gone upstairs. Yes, well, uh, I met Mr. Arthur, talked for a little chat with him. He's very nice, isn't he, Howard? Yes, very nice. We're all so fond of him. Uh, has, uh, has he been living here long? No, I, I think about five months. Oh. What does, uh, Mr. Evans do for living? Nothing, nothing at all. I think he came into a little money some time ago. Oh, but there I, I mustn't gossip, must I. Well, no harm in that. No. Well, uh, Mr. Arthur doesn't work either. Oh, retired. Well, it's hard to say, Mr. Quillen. I suppose he had some money saved up and, oh, there I go again. It's all right. Well, good night. I'll see you tomorrow. Of course. Uh, we must have a longer talk sometime. Yes, sir. What can I do for you? Uh, do you have cigars? Yes, sir. Any special kind you want? Well, uh, let's see. Two of these, please. Yes. Well, my story you've got here. Uh, thank you. Yeah, I must keep you pretty busy running it. Well, kind of. Good use, some help. I'll bet you could. Uh, don't, uh, don't you have a clerk? Well, not now. I had one, but I had to let him go. He got to talk on safety to the trade, losing his temper. Oh, well, no wonder you let him go. Yep, I couldn't afford to have him given trouble like that. Funny thing, too. All of a sudden, he up and began acting like he was crazy. Well, now that's funny. I wonder what makes people do that. You know, I had a cousin like that, nice as could be. Then one day, just like that, began acting funny. Same as Sam Arthur. Too bad. I like Sam. Everybody did. Yeah, that's the way it goes. Well, I'll see you again. Drop in any time. Glad to have you. Thanks. Oh, excuse me. Oh, hello there. Oh, how are you? Fine. Uh, you got a match? Not sure, I think. Here you are. See you at your hotel in 10 minutes. All right. I've learned a couple of things that might interest you. And he was fired from his job because he got touchy and irritable. I see. Well, I learned he's been keeping to himself. Won't have a thing to do with anybody. Mm-hmm. Everybody seemed to like him before, though. Colin, suppose Sam Arthur had something on his mind, on his conscience. Well, I suppose he has. What can we do about it? Find out what it is. Well, how? If he's guilty, which we don't know, he's kept it to himself for a year now. But that sudden break from his old life. Collins, I'm convinced his conscience is working on him. Well, if it didn't make him break in a year, it won't break him now. Yeah, I know that. We've got the work on him. Yeah, but you can't do that without getting him suspicious.  You know that chief. We've had him before. Yeah. Conscience is a funny thing, Colin. So is the instinct for self-preservation. Just let Sam Arthur get the slightest hint you're after him and you won't be able to touch him with a 10-foot pole. Look, I've got a job for you. You'll have to go about it quietly, too. All right. What is it? Find out all you can. But I did. Isn't anything about Sam Arthur you don't know already? I'm not talking about him. I want you to find out all you can about Ben Walters. Walters? But he's the murdered bank watchman. I know it. I've known that for a long time, Collins. Oh, yeah. I'm sorry. All right, but what good is he gonna do? You ever hear of psychology? Psychology? Never heard of it. You will. We'll use that and a little American ingenuity. Great combination, Collins. Now go to it. You are sure of all these facts? Positive, chief. Oh, what's this about the perfume? Well, none exactly perfume. It was after shaving said he used. Crazy about the stuff used in all the time. And he talked like this. Mr. Quillen, this is the way I used to talk. Yeah, that's the way. You should have been an actor, Collins. I could have been a good one.  I've got an idea. Now maybe it'll work. It's never been tried before. I don't get you, chief. You will. Collins, get a bottle of the scent you were talking about. Can you do it? You sure? But what's the idea? Psychology. Now, here's what I want you to do. I'll see that Arthur doesn't go near his room until after you finish the job I want you to do. Oh, Mr. Arthur. Oh, hello, Quillen. You want some company on your walk? Well, I wasn't going very far. I'm just out for a bit of the air. What's so as I? Confidentially, Mrs. Oglethorpe was waiting for me. Oh, I see. She likes to talk that she does. She doesn't care what she talks about either. No, just as long as she talks. Do you sleep well last night? Sleep? Well, of course. Why did you ask that? I was so hot. I was restless all night. I heard you, and I thought you were restless, too. I almost dropped over to see you. No, I wasn't restless. No? Well, I guess I heard something else. Heard something? What? Oh, nothing, nothing. My imagination, I guess. But since you were just next door to me, I thought it was you. Well, what are you talking about? Nothing, nothing at all. You see, I don't sleep very well. Probably one of those half-awake, half-asleep dreams.  Oh, some sort of mumbling, like a person talking in his sleep. It wasn't I? No, no, probably not. No, I've never talked in my sleep. Well, I didn't say anything. I was just mentioning it. Forget it. It was more than likely it was me. Well, I've... I've got to leave you here. Oh, that's too bad. Yes, I've got to get something at the store. Well, I'll walk with you. Oh, please, I'm going to stop and see a friend. Oh. Well, then I won't trail along, then. Good night. Good night, Quillen. I'll see you tomorrow. It was pretty smart of you, Chief.  Sure. Now what? How'd you do back in his room? Well, fine. No trouble getting in at all. I was stuck in the connecting door between his room and yours was a cinch. All right? Let's get back before he does. I'll go first. I'll let you in when the coast is clear. You are listening to Lee Bowman in The Pinkerton Man on The Cavalcade of America, sponsored by the DuPont Company, maker of better things for better living through chemistry. As the second part of our story opens, Alan Pinkerton is trying to break a year-old murder-and-robbery case in Columbia, Tennessee. Certain that a man named Sam Arthur is guilty, Pinkerton is working on him. And Pinkerton's plan seems to be succeeding, for he and Collins listen to an argument going on outside his room.  I know what I'm talking about, Mrs. Holly. And don't shout at me. I'm not deaf. And I don't like your insinuations that someone in this house was in your room. But someone was. I tell you, someone was in my room. Dora was in to clean. Dora doesn't have to go into my dresser. Now you listen to me. Dora's been with me for 15 years. She's a good girl. I told you somebody was in my room. I told you it was only Dora. If you don't like things the way they are around here, Mr. Arthur, you can leave now, tonight, this minute. All right. Oh, never mind. Forget what I said. Good night. I believe it's starting to work, Collins. Maybe you're right, Chief. Yes, I think so, but it's not enough yet. Hey, where are you going? Stay here. I'm going to see him. Now. Who's there? Willan. Can I come in? What for? Just to talk. Well, just a minute. What do you want? Well, I just heard you and Mrs. how I thought I could do something. Anything wrong? Oh, it's Dora. I know she was in my dresser. Oh, really? How can you be sure? Well, come here. Come here. Here, this drawer. Anything disturbed? No, no, but I know someone was in this drawer. I don't know how you can be so sure if nothing's out of place.  Smell anything? What? Well, yes, I have a peculiar odor like perfume. No, nothing. What? Get closer. Now. I'm sorry, Arthur, but I'm afraid you've got too good an imagination. It's not my imagination. I tell you there's some kind of perfume that's been spilled in my drawer there. Oh, it must be your nerves, Arthur.  You're... you're sure of that? Look, why don't we get someone else? Evans, Miss Ogilford. Oh, no, no, please. Never mind. But if you say it's here, I could be wrong. You know now, Evans or Miss Ogilford... I said no. I don't want them in here. Well, all right. It's all right. I guess it was my imagination. Sure. It's funny, but you know, nerves and imagination can play tricks on a man, especially when he's worried. Good night. It's just me, Mr. Arthur. Quillen. Oh. Oh, you. Why didn't you answer the first time? Well, it's after two in the morning. I didn't want to speak loudly. Too hot to sleep, eh? For me too. Yes, I... I came down to the veranda to get some air. It's not too cool here, either. Sultry. It's one of those nights you read about.  Still quiet air. The heavy humidity. Even the crickets are quiet. I... You were going to say something? No. Nothing. Just look at that sky. Not a star showing. No breeze. Nothing. Just deadly quiet. I can see for myself. Oh. Sorry. Excuse me. Your... Your handkerchief. A what? Handkerchief? What about it? That's where it comes from. You use it. You use it. Use what? What are you talking about? That scent. That's where it came from. It wasn't in my room. It was yours. Scent? On my handkerchief? Oh, no. Absolutely not. Never use scent. I can't stand the scent. It's coming from your handkerchief now. I smelled it when you pulled it out. Do you use scent? I don't smell anything. No. No, I don't believe in things like that. You don't believe in things like what? Man, your nerves are bad.   You ready, Collins? Yeah. Listen to him pacing back and forth.  You know what to say. Right? Arthur. Sam Arthur. Can you hear me, Sam? This is Walter. Talk to me, Sam. Tell me why you did it, Sam. Who? Who's that? Sam, why didn't you talk to me? Tell me why you killed me, Sam. Please talk to me. Arthur, what the hell is the idea of bursting into my room? Who are you talking to? Talking? Me? You're crazy. There's somebody in here with you. There's somebody in that closet. Oh, you are crazy. Why should anyone be in there? You were talking to someone. All right, so I was talking to someone. Someone in that closet. Go ahead and look in. See who it was. Well, go on. Satisfy yourself. Or do you want me to open it for you? No. No, please. Please don't open it. No. Come on out, Collins. He's ready to make a break for it. Hey, he almost looked in. No, no. He didn't dare. He was afraid he wouldn't see anyone. Hey, he's running away. Yes, I thought he would. All right. The next train doesn't leave Columbia for an hour. And in that hour, we've got to hire two men on that train with Arthur. Come on. Excuse me, is this seat... What? Why, Arthur, what are you doing on this train? Well, this is fine. I thought I'd have to ride this train alone. I got a wire suddenly, business up north. But you, where are you going? Well, I have a sister in New Jersey. I haven't seen her in a long time, and I...  Yes, yes. I was worried about this. Oh, that accounts for your nerves, eh? Don't worry. We'll do that to a man. Oh, yes, yes. I was worried about her. I see. Well, this is going to be pleasant. Still hot, isn't it? I thought... Well, what's the matter? Your... your handkerchief. My handkerchief? What's the matter with it? That perfume I smelled. You do use it. What are you talking about? There's no sand on this. There is. There is. I can smell it. Oh, now look, Arthur, I never used sand. It's your imagination again. I tell you what's not. You use the same kind of scent that he used. Me? Who? Please. Please, Quillen. Don't fool me. What are you trying to do? I know it's your handkerchief. Look, Arthur, we can settle this easily enough. I'll ask the man in back of us. Excuse me, sir. I know this sounds a little... Wait a minute. What are you going to do? I'll just show you what your imagination can do. To settle a bet, will you smell this handkerchief and see if there's sand on it? Eh? No, sure. Nothing on that handkerchief. There, you see, Arthur? Give me that. Sure, sure. Ask that man across from us. Mr. Rye, I beg your pardon, please. Yes? There's scent on this handkerchief. Will you please tell me what kind? You crazy? No, no, please. Please, just smell it. What? All right. Nope. I can't smell anything. What? Satisfied, Arthur? Quillen. Quillen, I can't stand it anymore. I've got to tell, I've got to tell someone. I've been living with it for a year and I, I can't hold it in anymore. I can't, I can't. What is it, Arthur?  But I didn't mean to. He woke up and I had to hit him. I swear, I swear I didn't mean to. Ah, didn't mean to, huh? Oh, it's been driving me crazy for a year. And this last week has been the worst.  Oh, I had to tell somebody, oh, go crazy. It's better this way. Come on. What will they do to me? What will they do? I don't know, Arthur, but it's much better this way. We'll get off at the next stop. Our star, Lee Bowman, will return in just a moment. But first here is Gane Whitman speaking for Dupont. Sound travels about 12 and a half miles a minute. And the new jet-propelled planes are already flying 10. This means a jet plane flies right along behind the sound it makes. It's like something out of a rocket trip to Jupiter in a comic book. But it's a long way from being comic. When a plane travels near the speed of sound, air, unable to get out of the way, is compressed and piles up around the leading edges of the wing. Behind this sharp wave, the air is rough, so rough that a plane may be torn to pieces. Aviation engineers are sweating out this plobberum right now. Among other experiments, for instance, the aircraft laboratory at Wright Field has designed an entirely new type of wing made of glass and plastic. Outside, to reduce skin friction to a minimum, it is finished and polished to a mirror-like surface, freed from rivets, overlapping joints, and other projections. Inside, the construction is even more novel.  The wing surfaces are made from several layers of glass cloth cemented together. Supporting these surfaces and sandwiched between them and the internal structural parts is a foamed cellulose acetate plastic, lighter than cork. This construction provides great strength and unusual rigidity in the wing surfaces. With all the resources of American business ingenuity at the service of aviation engineers, we have assurance that the combined efforts of scientific and business enterprise will keep American transportation in the forefront. The cellular plastic used in this new wing is a development of applied chemical research by the DuPont Company, maker of better things for better living through chemistry. Now, here's our star, Lee Bowman. Thanks, Gaine. You know, I've always been a great detective story fan, and that's why it was interesting for me to learn that America's Alan Pinkerton used psychological methods to solve a crime so long ago. Pinkerton believed that ingenuity was the birthright of every American. In time, he was to see worldwide distinction come to American detectives for their work in ensuring law and order for our citizens. The United States Secret Service, an organization Pinkerton founded, as well as his own Pinkerton men, rank high in international prestige, along with France's famed Surte and Britain's Scotland Yard. It was a pleasure, Gaine, to portray this remarkable detective on Cavalcade tonight. Thank you and good night. Next week, the DuPont Cavalcade brings you Gene Herscholt in Parade. It's the tender and moving story of Peter Verick, an immigrant who believed in dreams and who believed in working hard to make those dreams come true. Be sure and listen next Monday to Gene Herscholt in Parade on the Cavalcade of America brought to you by the DuPont Company. Our star tonight, Lee Bowman, appeared through the courtesy of Columbia Pictures, producers of The Jolson Story. The music for the DuPont Cavalcade is composed and conducted by Robert Armbruster. Our Cavalcade play was written by Russell Hughes. The part of Collins was played by William John Stone and the part of Arthur was played by Walter Mayer, who appeared through arrangement with Metro Golden Mayer, producers of The Yearling. This is John Easton inviting you to listen next week to Gene Herscholt in Parade on the Cavalcade of America brought to you by the DuPont Company of Wilmington, Delaware. The Cavalcade of America came to you from Hollywood. This is NBC, the national broadcasting company.


Colgate dental cream to clean your breath while you clean your teeth and help stop tooth decay and luster cream shampoo For soft glamorous carousel hair bring you our miss Brooks starring Eve Arden It's time once again for another comedy episode of our miss Brooks written by Al Lewis Well by last week the final examinations were all completed and our miss Brooks who teaches English at Madison High School Velt that she was entitled to celebrate Accordingly, I granted mr. Boynton the privilege of spending all Thursday afternoon and evening with me In fact, I granted him the privilege about 20 minutes before he asked me Friday morning at breakfast my landlady inquired about the preceding night's revelry What did you do Connie? Where did mr. Boynton take you? He took me to the zoo, Mrs. Davis. Oh My goodness Connie, I know mr. Boynton is conservative But I thought he'd at least take you to some place where there's a little gaiety. Oh, the zoo wasn't so bad They get a pretty nice crowd If you like orangutans Mr. Boynton doesn't spend much does he Connie? He hasn't got much Mrs. Davis But there's one thing about my dates with him. I get home in time to get plenty of sleep Last night. It was only 10 o'clock when we said goodnight. You didn't just say goodnight. Did you certainly not Mrs? Davis we shook hands first Oh, it was so romantic standing there in the moonlight with our fingers locked in the mad embrace It doesn't sound very romantic to me. Oh, it was mr. Boynton got so carried away. He almost took off one of his gloves Well, I certainly wouldn't call this a whirlwind courtship with you frankly Mrs. Davis I've felt a stronger wind coming out of a flat bottle of club soda Mr. Boynton was in a very good mood yesterday. It seems he's in line for a professorship at state university Really? Yes as a matter of fact, the dean is going to interview him after school today It'll mean a lot to mr. Boynton if he gets the position more money prestige Why he'll even be able to settle down and get married to some nice girl What nice girl? What's the difference as long as she's a refined wholesome english teacher who lives with mrs. Davis Well, I think you and mr. Boynton should have been married long ago Why don't you give him a hint once in a while why I'm surprised at you mrs. Davis You ought to know I'm not that sort of a person I was thinking of the poor souls who resort to trickery to get their men just last evening When Connie right after I steered mr. Boynton into a chinese restaurant ordered a bowl of rice and slipped the waiter a quarter to throw it at us I know you're joking Connie, but believe me a little mental suggestion wouldn't hurt That's walter dennan. I better get my hat and coat be right with you walter Will you get that phone please mrs. Davis? I can't seem to find my hat certainly dear Hello, hello, miss brooks. This is mr. Boynton. Oh, thanks just the same dear, but this is mrs. Davis Connie is rushing to get out of the house, but I'll call her if you don't disturb mrs. Davis I just wanted to tell her about the call I received from dean faraday of state you She's told me something about your expectations, mr. Boynton, and I'm certainly thrilled over the news We both are Oh, thank you. So am I I'd do anything to get that position mrs. Davis as a matter of fact I I had to resort to a bit of deception when I spoke to the dean a few minutes ago deception Well, I live alone as you know and the dean made it quite clear to me that the board favors family men on their faculty So I uh, I had to tell a little fib. What did you say mr. Boynton? Well, I told him I am a family man I said I lived with mrs. Boynton mrs. Boynton.  Boynton I'll explain it all to Connie and she'll see you at school later on. Oh fine mrs. Davis. Goodbye. Goodbye Be right with you walter. Well mrs. Davis.  Boynton on the phone just now He said he had to play a little trick on the dean when he called because the dean prefers Family men to bachelors. What kind of a trick mr. Boynton told him he lives with mrs. Boynton mrs. Boynton, but how could he say? coming If I don't get down to walter's car one of them will blow a gasket So you see walter mr. Boynton may soon be going to state university to teach gosh miss brooks all the way to state you Oh, that's over 20 blocks from madison. Hi Well, I don't think they'd move it any closer walter besides. He hasn't got the professorship yet Although from what mrs. Davis said he's certainly anxious to get it He even told the dean he was a family man said he lives with mrs. Boynton His wife naturally boy if mr. Boynton told anybody he's married. He must really want that job According to my dad faking your marital status is a pretty dangerous thing to do though He got into a jam once just by saying he was single. Oh, he said it to my mother Yeah, four weeks later they were married serves him right Yeah, he got pretty sore outer for making him fall so head over heels in love when he couldn't really afford marriage You see at that time. He wasn't making any more money than you make as a school teacher unemployed, eh But walter, please don't mention this opportunity mr. Boynton has until the deal is consummated You know, mr. Conklin might make things a bit unpleasant if he heard he was losing one of his best teachers I won't be the word of it to a soul miss brooks Of course, I'll have to tell harry it harry at conklin walter I know you're very fond of her but she's the last person in the world to be entrusted with confidential information She doesn't mean any harm.

Why not? It's a secret Now that's what I call a secret with a high hooper rating Don't worry harry at my lips are sealed now if you'll excuse me I've got to stop in the lab and see mr. Boynton before my class all right miss brooks see you in a little while come in Oh, it's you miss brooks. I'm glad you stopped by did mrs.

Faraday called me back after I spoke with mrs. Davis And he said he wants to meet mrs. Boynton. He's coming to my apartment after school today Now I'm really in a spot not if you carry your original deception a step farther and produce mrs. Boynton for the dean producer I am now applying for the job You're not serious miss brooks about you.  Boynton, and I'd like to help you out Besides what's wrong with me being mrs. Boynton you but that's ridiculous Thanks a million What's ridiculous about it? Well, you you don't look the part dr.

Well, let's not rush into senility. Mr. Boynton Well, we can discuss the details after school fine and miss brooks I'd like to say that I think it's wonderful of you to get in there and pitch for me this way I've been pitching for a long time mr. Boynton. You just haven't been catching I'd better get over to my room now. Goodbye mr. Boynton Mrs. Boynton Mrs. Boynton Shall I uh, shall I walk you over to your class? Don't bother.

Boynton that very afternoon I refused to dwell on the fact that by midnight I'd feel like queen for a day And I just finished my lunch when Harriet conklin joined me in the cafeteria and told me her father wanted to see me It was obvious when I got to the principal's office that mr. Conklin had received some kind of a report on my conversation in mr. Boynton's lab Because he was much too jovial Ah, mrs.  Thanks. Thanks Well, what's new with you? How's every little thing just dandy in a tiny sort of way? Well, it seems to me that there's something in the air and don't you agree It is getting a bit nippy out might even freeze up tonight. The radio advised the citrus growers to smudge I didn't ask you in here for a frost warning mrs.  They had chili con carne in the cafeteria Now if you'll excuse me, sir, I better Well, there's the start of the next period. I'd better be running along now very well, mrs. Brooks And thank you for a most delightfully cryptic few moments Sorry, mrs. Brooks. Didn't you get that shoe tied yet? Never mind Harriet. I'll see you in class later on. Okay, mrs. Brooks Well daddy did mrs. Brooks let the cat out of the bag. She didn't let an undenourished mouse out of the bag But I'd swear there's something up. Well, of course there is I told you we called her mrs. Boynton this morning And I also heard and say they were meeting a doctor something or other in his apartment this afternoon A doctor, eh? Must be a minister. They're getting married this afternoon Well, it's been some time coming But this has been a very modest and sensible courtship between these two teachers Kindness consideration and courtesy have all played their part And now at long last she's nailed him Isn't it wonderful and just think daddy now that she's getting married mrs. Brooks can do what she always said she'd do Quit her job and raise a family Ah, yes motherhood What greater boon to the american home than the pitter-patter of little QUIT HER JOB She can't do this to me Why do you realize how difficult it is to secure a competent teacher in the middle of a school year? We're sure daddy, but there's nothing anybody can do about it after all you can't interfere with dan cupid I can't Well, if dan cupid thinks he's going to rob me of an english teacher. I'll beat the bear little brute until he drops his quiver So if you'll go on ahead to my apartment mrs. Brooks, I'll pick up the wedding ring at minors store You see dr. Faraday said he'd meet me right after school. I wouldn't want him to wait out in the hall All right, mr. Boynton, but what do I do with my hands until you come back and slip me the ring Well, uh, couldn't you sort of fold them? They'll be folded all right. I'll be praying I'm sure of the work miss Brooks. Just put plenty of powder in your hair and assume a dignified attitude Now we'd better be going. All right. I'll do it. Mr. Boynton. Why mrs. Boynton has to be an octogenarian I'll never know. Oh, well see you in a little while. Mr. Boynton. Very well, miss Brooks. Bye.

He got up and gave me his seat He gave you his he was getting off at the next block anyway You see he was going to visit his father who happened to be in the hospital at the time His father was in the hospital I know things were different in those days, but I don't recall them as being that different The next time I saw philip was two weeks later. He'd just been made a lieutenant in the air corps He looked so cute, of course some of the enlisted men said he wasn't dry behind the ears yet They might have had something there Mrs. Boynton, I'm happy to see you've got such a keen sense of humor in times like these Well, hello, dr. Faraday. Oh, hello boynton philip darling. Let me take your hat. No. No, don't you move dear?  Oh, she's still my sweetheart. She's a fine woman She's the salt of the earth the cream of the crowd.

Well, not immediately sir. You know how it is with school teachers They mostly meet other school teachers and well, we just can't afford each other But someday when I've advanced a bit in salary, I do hope to get married Well, sounds like you've already selected a candidate.

Nobody makes better lemonade than you do Yeah, it is good. You know, mrs. Boynton, I simply can't get over your youthful appearance. Thank you, sir I uh, I'm not being presumptuous. I trust but would you mind telling me how old you were when philip came into the world? Well, as a matter of fact, he came in before I did It's too sweet. Would you please come into the kitchen with me for a moment? Surely, but please excuse us, dr. Faraday We'll be right back. Yeah, of course Miss Brooks, this is no time for kidding. You've got to act much older in front of the dean 10 or 20 years older But mr.  Of course. He thinks you are my mother Now now here's the ring. How does that go again? I thought I was supposed to be mrs.  That's ridiculous I explained it all to mrs. Davis on the phone.  No, mr. Boynton, I wouldn't but I'm going to make as hasty and gracious an exit as I possibly can Oh dr. Faraday, I just remembered a rather pressing engagement. Will you excuse me?

look at the headlines and some newspapers And we see that the pdp meeting that they had in or your state yesterday is you know generating a buzz with You know the the insistence for A devolution of power restructuring in the country and the fact that it took a stand with the 17 southern governors who had met last Tuesday Of course the apc has responded to this Basically saying it was disappointed with the pdp meeting and all the insults and name calling Your thoughts in this piece well the The outcome Of the name of the pdp governors in your state Foolish the pattern the um the recession of the 17 governors of southern nigeria last week in nasa back and the results that they came out practically was intended with What the pdp girls also came out yesterday um part of those 10 Resolutions were raised by the southern governors practically all the same thing that pdp girls came up with um, so, um There's not much and nothing in what the heads And they can be better real school instead of that Yes, uh evolution of power The need for us to listen the issue of security likes so Don't forget that the thing of last week by the southern governors who are the partisans It has both the apc and the pdp governors last year out of avga in attendance and all of them Endows that mnike, so um, that's more of the The only age In what happened in is that now you also have pd governors from north So what you're having is a situation where if you put into context the outcome of them is Every almost every governments from all parts or all sessions of the country Moving together There are the pdp governors that have governors from Um from school states from vouchers states and so on that states in the in the north in attendance and then that so uh make our lips i'll tell you that um What it seems to be on the same plate on the same page on this on the way forward and um Better talking about the reaction. I don't want to go into that. Um, because You expect people Political parties will always make statements even if it doesn't make sense. I just want to talk And um, that's just for me We are staying and um, the some of us that are very very germane Taking into consideration maybe get us out of the current situation and ourselves All right, um, let's uh, we'll probably come back to this it appears in all the papers this morning But let's go to kaduna now and uh, you know share your thoughts on the nlc Five-day warning strike and of course the events from yesterday Yes, um, the one strike, um By nlc kaduna Especially When they still got This is about 4 000 to 5 000 works. I've always seen um, every five is a very very intelligence and Very coherent and governor In some of the things he does or says, um He he knows is your and the in where the shoot pitches and um, we cannot force Workers on On an employer That the problem I have with him is that lack of empathy that is What is lacking? I say that A certain position that you take and you take certain things into consideration Not because it is Is it jc correct or that in the essence of it is right? But at times it takes certain things to consideration and that is part of what he is doing with the Insecurity Yeah, I say oh, I'm not going to talk to bandit. Oh, but if I have opportunity I'm going to leave plays and key depends on rest of them That's not the mark of Yes, he said that probably 80 percent of the Of revenue Is being used in salaries and the monument of interest of them Need to or not to Talk about issues. I agree with you. I think that's too much. I wish to hand the situation rather than be What's about it? They did discuss with LC TUC and other laborizations. They arrived at the reasonable Um Stand on issues like this. Well, he called the above but they're also showing him that yes You may be the government also We are the speakers and the representative of the workers and yesterday Cardenas they practically paralyzed the airport the train station don't forget um Most of the movement from abuja to cardona in a train because of a lot of insecurity between Cardona and abuja expressway So if that a train station is People are supposed to look in security on that. So apart from what I think that a good sense reveals Yes, then let's also understand that we're having a training economy that most of this has rather struggling to survive But that does not take away the need for the state government also shows a lot of empathy By the time you have about five thousand people into the labor matters like that For every fork. Are you dismissed? I care that I have about 14 dance on them Surviving to go those things to see the size and level of empathy on the part of the governor Other just he just to weigh the baby with that water So very high between now and in a few days what you cannot miss I wonder I don't know who will shift grounds here Because nlc has insisted that it will carry on with their strike One in strike for the next five days and then escalate this if the government does nothing But yesterday L5 tweeted that this was a sponsored campaign to sabotage his government and that he would not shift grounds You know saying that he's not going to Be altered the right sizing of the state civil service will not be altered by the nlc's campaign of economic and social sabotage And you know, like I already said trains power You know everything granted to the whole trinidad and caduna state So we'll just wait and see how it turns out in caduna state And moving on now, you know, I need to ask how safe it is, you know to You know Prepare for the elections that we're expecting in 2023 And that's because we continue to see iNEC offices being burnt in the country and police officers at police stations as well The dating dependent says gone men raise another police station in abbey accused to call Also another iNEC office in enogu state six vehicles also burnt as gone men attack enogu office in Enogu iNEC office What do you think about these This you know spate of arson in the country? Yeah, from what we're learning that counts 21 iNEC offices have been burnt or destroyed especially within the south south east area and The rate as a couple without of the police the rate as you are going In my head out that in 2023 We may find our self-industrial that the worst it is and we had in 2018. Don't forget that in 2015 general election uh Was pwned at the point because of insecurity We had former president to add that he'd be given some few weeks to be able to sort out the use in the north east And then the election was spawned for Somewhere for years away and um before you could be able to get iNEC to conduct a lesson in some parts of Not those that were the documents were recovered in enogu state But at the rate which we are going now the level of austerity is on the on the high It's top most and that to me is going to be a serious and then iNEC to We can see um It already We are trying to see iNEC is doing seems to do to good to Come to vote We might have issues on the south side in the east, in the west, in the north, and every other part of the country, not to me, is a very big problem. Why we need to do this in the back? The problem is because the police are not able to do that, and not to me is a big challenge. The police are not able to protect the police station, and they are the ones that are able to protect the police, the relation, the job of the army, or the navy, or the job of the police. We're having a bit of a challenge here, clearly, if you could please hold on for a minute. We're having a bit of a challenge here, but quickly before we wrap up, we know a story that the federal government has uncovered 476 online publications that are turning out to fake news to fight the government ahead of the election. We know the Minister of Information and Culture said this in a boujah yesterday, saying that they're tracing this basically, saying that the President, President Muhammad Buhari's mental status is unbalanced, basically. What do you think about it? We know that when it's close to the election period, we're going to see things like this fake news coming up here and there, but 476 have been discovered at this time, Mr. Andu. Sorry, I didn't hear you well. The back from your hands were very bad. Okay, can you hear me now? I don't know where it's from. So the feedback is very bad. I don't know what happened. Can you hear me now, Mr. Andu? So we need to check the network within your hands. I didn't hear you very well. So we need to... We're also struggling with getting to hear you also this morning. Can you hear anything that we're saying clearly? All right, I think we may have lost him. That's poor network this morning because of the weather. I'm not sure. Or there's elements trying to sabotage our program. And talking about the story, I really want to know where the source is because the story here, you know, this is like Mohammed speaking, that the 476 fake sites that are turning in false information about the president saying President Buhari is mentally unstable and that he can't... Mentally unstable, but... What did you just say? The president is not mentally stable. Is that what is used there? Mentally unstable. Mentally unstable. That's the word that like Mohammed said. Mentally unstable. You're talking about his mental status and that the president can barely recognize his own family members, you know. So they're basically saying they want to help. Yes, go online. That's the story. Oh, okay. Okay. Sorry. Like Mohammed is saying those are some of the stories. No, those are not my words. No, no. I'm saying, okay, those are the type. Okay. I'm sorry. I thought you meant like Mohammed said... Yes. That the president is... No, like Mohammed said these are the stories they're saying online.  Like Mohammed... See, this is a quote by like Mohammed. He said, the latest which I found ridiculous is one which said days ago that he had mentioned that when President Mohammed Buhari was in the UK last time, he was advised to step down because he could not even recognize members of his own family.  So this is the first time I am seeing or encountering news like this. As I'm saying, I wonder what their sources are because I haven't seen any of this fake news online. And I'm online. I haven't seen talking about his mental status and... I've come across stuff like that.  I remember she said that. But there's also people who once in a while will tweet stuff like that, you know, but it's not stuff that shouldn't be, you know, that we must take seriously or, you know, we should stop the country from moving forward. There's always going to be some of all these, you know, things on the side. There's always going to be people who create the error. Obviously, if it's fake news, we know how that affects the state and country. Yeah, but I think we also should... That's why, you know, it's not left for us to be able to discern the source of our information. Exactly what I said. Yes. So if you see a repeatable, or supposedly a repeatable media organization putting out stories like that, you know, and maybe you should, but if it's just some random name from some part of the country, some random person that nobody knows who the person is, then those type of things, we should be smart enough to say, oh, please. Yes. Yes, guys. Ladies and gentlemen, if you see any information online, you need to actually ask yourself, what's the source of this information? Is this a repeatable media name, a media brand? If it's not, even sometimes when there's a repeatable media brand, you still have to ask yourself questions as to the authenticity of the information you read online, especially on platforms like Twitter, Facebook, those platforms really are, you know, breeding grounds, so to speak. And when they are proven to be false, you know, a lot of times those media outfits, you know, would retract and apologize and stuff like that, but it's not every random tweet, you know, that like Mohammed should be taken seriously.  The fact they're saying they are online sites here. 476 is even poor, you know. There should be more if we have been serious. It's a 200 million population.  There's so much of it, you know, in the country these days. And once again, all the things shouldn't be, shouldn't distract the government from moving forward. Those, you know, I've just seen all those things as, you know, excuses, you know, every now and then that people use for anyway. In addition to all the challenges that we inherited from the... We'll go on a short break when we come back. We'll let you know what happened today in history. It's the 18th of May, and I'm going back to the year 2012. We'll be right back.
