A Worried Witness

Mother, our post-40% brand flakes really the best tasting cereal of them all. Well, your father says so, and 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 Andesans.

Brought to you by America's largest selling brand flakes. Post-40% brand flakes. And by instant post them. The good tasting drink that's entirely caffeine-free. The basis of good citizenship, according to one James Anderson, lies not only in doing one's part toward the betterment of his society, but in volunteering to do one's part, not sitting

back and waiting to be asked. As a matter of fact, this was the subject of a lecture delivered to his children one evening last week in the White Frame House on Maple Street. But that was last week.

This evening, Jim has forgotten the whole thing as he sits in the den, scanning the newspaper while his help-mate Margaret sits nearby with a darning basket full of socks like this. Jim. Hmm. I know I've asked you this before, dear, but I've never really gotten a satisfactory answer.

What's that, dear? Please tell me. How do you manage to wear your socks out in the arches? Oh, Margaret. I don't do that. Well, just look at this sock. Must be faulty workmanship. Nobody could possibly wear socks out in the arch.

Well, that's why I want to know how you do it. I must ask Mrs. Davis if Ed does that. Oh, and I don't go spreading that all over the neighborhood. Mommy? You know what? You want to let someone check your feet sometime, like, uh, say the Smithsonian Institute.
