Randy Riddle note: This was an early five minute radio series featuring Coleman Cox, around 1934-35. He was promoted as a "philosopher" and was an author who published in California in the 1920s. After the show introduction, describing Cox as "the kindly philosopher who smiles as he talks", Cox offers little bits of wisdom, such as "You're well dressed when no-one can remember anything you're wearing". Each little bit is separated by a bell. There are no other surviving copies of the series, which was syndicated by Sollie-MacGregor and pressed by Columbia. The announcer is Hal Dean, the same announcer for Curtis Springer's programs. Note: According to WorldCat, Rubenstein Library has one of Coleman Cox's books, "Just as I Thought", a collection of his thoughts on salesmanship and success.
