Carnival in Town

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's father. A half hour visit with your neighbors the Anderson's.

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. Towns and cities like people have birthdays, and Springfield is no exception.

In fact, Springfield celebrates its natal day each year with the annual Founder's Day Carnot, a fairly gaudy and joyous affair held in the municipal auditorium. The town shops and schools are closed, and its citizens are urged to join together in the day-long celebration.

Cooked around the breakfast table in the White Frame House on Maple Street, in a holiday mood, the members of the Anderson family are discussing the event like this. Jean Mommy, it starts at 12. We better hurry.

Don't get so excited, Cathy. Heavens know the carnival runs all afternoon and all evening, till midnight. How much spending money can I have this year? No, I don't know. You'll have to take that up with your father when he comes down for breakfast.

I hope he's in a good mood. Remember last year he didn't much want to go to carnival. Well, don't urge him. Don't even bring it up. Let him think it's his idea to go and then he'll like it.

Well, good morning. Good morning, Father. Sit down, dear. I'll have a waffle for you in just a second. Bye. What's the matter with you kids this morning? You all look so glum. Don't you know this is a holiday?
