Transcript

Now, as gunshots echo across the winds, swept snow-covered reaches of the wild northwest, Quaker Pothwheat and Quaker Poth Price, the breakfast cereal shot from guns, present the challenge of the Yukon. It's Yukon King, swiftness and strongest lead dog at the northwest, placing the trail for Sergeant Preston of the Northwest Monet Police in his relentless pursuit

of lawbreakers. One King, one! You're husking! Gold, gold discovered in the Yukon, a stampede of the Klondike and the wild race for riches, back to the days of the Gold Rush, with Quaker Pop Wheat and Quaker Pop Price bringing you the adventures of Sergeant Preston and his wonder dog Yukon King as they meet the challenge

of the Yukon. Say, if you're looking for the swellest eaten breakfast ever, stop looking right now, because here it is, treat yourself to the serial shot from guns. That's the one and only Quaker Puff Wheat or Rice.

Tomorrow, pour out a bowl for crisp and fresh, right from the big red and blue package, add milk and fruit, and there you have it. A treat that hits the spot. That's nourishing too. Wheat or Rice shot from guns, furnishes extra food values, a restored natural grain amounts of vitamin B1, niacin and iron.

Good and good for you. That's Quaker Puff Wheat and Quaker Puff Rice. Shot from gun. A long journey from Selkirk, northward to Dawson was one that few men in the Yukon cared to make during this strenuous winter season.

But Sergeant Preston, the royal northwest mounted police, with his great dog King, hadn't hesitated to set out by dog sled in spite of the hazards of cold and wind and snow and ice. Ever since the Mountiness Dog had started the trip, snow had been falling steadily.
