Selling Shares In Silver Mine

The whole town is investing money in the Great Sterling Silver Company. Abner is the only person who isn't buying stock in it.

Lum and Abner was an American network radio comedy program created by Chester Lauck and Norris Goff that was produced from 1931 to 1954. Modeled on life in the small town of Waters, Arkansas, near where Lauck and Goff grew up, the show proved immensely popular. In 1936, Waters changed its name to "Pine Ridge" after the show's fictional town.
