Transcript

Now as gunshots echo across the windswept, snow-covered reaches of the wild northwest, Quaker puff wheat, and Quaker puff rice, the breakfast cereal shot from guns, present the challenge of the Yukon. It's Yukon King, swiftness and strongest lead dog of the Northwest, placing the trail for Sergeant Preston of the Northwest Mountain Police in his relentless pursuit of lawbreakers.

Gull discovered in a Yukon, a stampede to the Klondike in the wild race for riches, back to the days of the Gold Rush, with Quaker Puff Wheat and Quaker Puff Rice bringing you the adventures of Sergeant Preston and his Wonder Dog Yukon King as they meet the challenge of the Yukon.

Here's the breakfast I really go for. He's enjoying his Quaker Puff Wheat. Looks good too. It is good. I'll say it is, and so is Quaker Puff Rice. These giants ready to serve grains of wheat or rice are premium grains.

They're shot from guns, puffed to perfection, exploded up to eight times normal size to make them crisp and tender. Wheat or rice shot from guns is good for you too, makes a thrifty deluxe family breakfast with milk or cream and fruit.

Tomorrow's sure, try this breakfast treat. Pothrice or Quaker Pothwheat. Ma Gravelin had run the trading post at Barton Pass ever since her husband's death, and every trapper in the district respected her courage and honesty. She had one son, Clem, who was 19 when the big strike in the bonanza was made, and the stories that drifted down from

the Klondike made him eager to try his luck at prospecting. Ma tried to discourage him. Son, there's something about prospecting that's like gambling or drink. Once it gets into your blood, you can't get it out.
