Mother! Is Maxwell House really the only coffee in the world? Well, your father says so, and your father knows best. Yes, its 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 America's favorite coffee, Maxwell House. The coffee that's always good to the last drop. When it comes to definitions, you can't do much better than Webster, can you? So let's see what the old master had to say about the word, Dem, D-E-M.

Taking our trusty dictionary in hand, we find that a den is the layer of a wild beast. It is also, and again we quote, a quiet, snug, private retreat, as a room set apart for reading.

Doesn't seem to be too much connection, does it? What a half hour spent for the Anderson's and the White Frame House on Maple Street will help us to understand that Mr. Webster knew exactly what he was talking about.

Like this. Stand still, Betty, please. Mother, if you only knew how I hated this dress, nonsense. All it needs is a little touching up and it'll be as good as new. But it'll still have shoulder straps.

Betty, if I hear one more word about that dress, you can't go to the dance at all. But father, every other girl... ...chomping creepers. most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. A man comes into his own den to read a magazine and he can't even do that.

We'll be finished in a minute, Jim. That's what you said an hour ago. I know, but Betty, I can't do a thing if you're going to wiggle like that. I'm sorry. Dad, I've started this article eight times and I haven't gotten past the first sentence.
