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 gun, 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! 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.

Say, are you game for a dare? Oh me? Sure I am, what's up? Well then, tomorrow morning, try a breakfast of Quaker Puffed Rice or Quaker Puffed Wheat topped with milk or cream and fruit.

Boy, I just dare you to say it doesn't hit the spot. These ready to serve king-size kernels of premium wheat or rice are shot from guns to make them crisp and tender. Yes, tomorrow try this breakfast treat. Quaker puffed rice or Quaker puffed wheat.

A heavy shipment of gold has just been received at the Express Office in Forti, my home. As Henry Bishop, the manager of the Express Office, supervised the transfer of the gold to the office safe.

Little Alan McCray, his adopted son, watched with interest. Here's the last two sacks of dust, Hank. Oh, right. Put them right in there with the other sacks and our clues up the seat. All right.

There. Now how about signing this receipt? She was in that. There you are. Thanks. How long are you going to have this gold on your hands, Hank? Well, just overnight. We're shipping it down to Dawson tomorrow morning.
