A Modern Thanksgiving

Is Max Willhouse the best coffee in the whole world? Well, your father says so, and your father knows best. Yes, it's father knows best. Transcribed in Hollywood starring Robert Young as father. A half hour visit with your neighbors, the Anderson's, brought to you by Maxwell House.

America's favorite brand of coffee. Look for that familiar blue Maxwell House tin, featured in stores everywhere at lower prices, the lowest prices in months. Enjoy coffee that's always good to the last drop. High the board with plenches cheer and gather to the feast and toast the sturdy pilgrim band whose courage never ceased.

You know, the pilgrim started the custom of Thanksgiving, but there are others whose trials and tribulations on an average Thanksgiving day bear inspection and a certain amount of sympathy. Take for example the Anderson's who live in Springfield in a white frame house on Maple Street.

They count their blessings and give their thanks, But with three children in the house, even a simple right like Thanksgiving can be a pretty complicated affair like this. Mother! We're in the den, Betty! Isn't Betty?

Betty! If you have anything to ask your mother, come down here and ask her. Jumping creepers! Sounds like she was reared in a barn. It stands up there screaming her head off. Jim! Kathy is waiting to read her poem.

Oh, I'm sorry, Kathy. Go ahead. Yes, Daddy. Go ahead, dear. Well, now what are you waiting for? I have to be introduced. Pardon me. Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of the competition in the fourth grade, Miss Kathleen Anderson.

Is that better? Now you have to applaud. Okay, we applaud. Thank you. What a ham. As to get her applause before she reads the point. Jim. Doesn't want to take any chances. Alright dear, anytime you're ready.
