Transcript
Now as gunshots echo across the wind, swept 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 Mounted Police,
in his relentless pursuit of lawbreakers. And King, one of the speed! Gold, gold discovered in the 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. And oh man, what a treat it is to dive into a heaping bowl full of Quaker Puff Rice or Quaker Puff Wheat topped with milker cream and your favorite fruit.
Mmm, what a breakfast! Say, these king-size ready to serve premium grains of wheat or rice are shot from guns. Yes, actually exploded up to eight times normal size to make them crisp and tender. Vager and better tasting!
Tomorrow's sure, get off to a flying start with this breakfast treat. Quaker Pup Rice or Quaker Pup Wheat. Luke McGowan was a hard-bitten product of the Northwest Frontier whose temper had not been sweetened by the fact that he had received what he considered a raw deal from organized society.
