This is the way they dress when they come down out of the Arkansas mountains as they will Monday to make their bow over the Columbia network and WFBM for a series of thrice weekly programs—Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 5:45 p. m. When they don their “store clothes” they are known as Chester Lauck (left) and Norris Goff.

Good Radio Music
