Betty and Crooner

Mother, why did Daddy switch to post him? Your father says there's no caffeine in post him. Nothing to spoil your sleep. 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 Andesans, brought to you by Instant Postam, the good tasting drink that's entirely caffeine-free, and by post 40% brand flakes, America's largest selling brand flakes. There's something about cogwheels, levers, gears, and springs that holds a certain fascination for the male's species.

The feminine faction, however, is not so enraptured, especially when the aforementioned cogwheels, levers, gears, and springs are spread all over the dining-room table. And that's the way it is with the Anderson's as we check in on a Saturday morning at the White Frame House on Maple Street.

Like this. Jim, you have a perfectly good workbench out in the garage. Why don't you repair the clock out there? I'll be through here in just a minute. You've been saying that for the last two hours.

But I can use your help here. Okay. Hand me those tools as I need them. Screwdriver. Okay, here you are. Now. Pliers. Tweezers. Forcepts. Scalpel. Alright, bud, cut it out. This is nerve-wracking work. Oh gosh, Dad.

This whole thing sounds like an operation. Yes, and I'm afraid the patient isn't going to make it. make it. Jim, those old clocks require a special skill. When mother and dad had the clock, they always took it to... Margaret, please, I've just about got it licked. Say, Mommy!

Gosh, what's all this junk on the table? Shh, Kathy, there's a genius at work. Now, see this spring here, bud? All I have to do is coil it up. Good and tight, like this. Now as I hold the spring with the pliers, I want you bud to open the little door and back of the clock.
