Anniversary Secret

Is Maxwell House 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 his father. A half hour visit with your neighbors, the Anderson's.

Brought to you by Maxwell House. The coffee that's bought and enjoyed by more people than any other brand of coffee at any price. Maxwell House, always good to the last drop. It's a peculiar thing about people, especially people who belong to a family.

First, they begin to look alike. Then, if that weren't bad enough, they begin to think alike. That'd be a fine thing if you were related to Betty Graybell or Albert Einstein. But what if you were related to the Andesans?

Looking like them wouldn't be too bad, I suppose. But thinking the way they do, well, that can lead to all sorts of complications, like this. But why does it have to be a surprise? But who wants to go to an anniversary party but isn't a surprise?

I do. Who are you gonna call now? Mr. Smith. You already called him twice. Well, I forgot to tell him something. Betty, wouldn't it be just as good if Mom and Dad knew? Then they could help us a little.

Oh, so that's what it is. You're afraid of a little extra work. That's all. What? I am not. Mr. Smith, this is Betty Anderson. Don't tell me you're not having the party. I've already called everybody.

Oh no, it isn't anything like that. Mr. Smith, if you see my father or my mother, you won't say anything about it, will you? Tell him it's a surprise party. Just a minute, Mr. Smith. He knows it's a surprise party. I told him that in the beginning.
