Transcript

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 Anderson's, 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. They say a man's home is his castle.

So possibly by the same token, you might say that a boy's room in the home is also his private domain. Take Bud Anderson, for example. He has always felt that his room upstairs in the White Frame House on Maple Street was traditionally his personal property.

That's why on this Saturday morning we find young Bud protesting violently against an unprovoked invasion of his territory. Like this. Cut it out, will ya? I don't go in your room and tear everything up, do I?

Oh, stop grousing. I'm not hurting your old room. I'm just looking for a pin. I haven't got any pins. How do you ever find anything in this mess? Looks like an old gopher's nest. I don't go in your room and tear up everything.

I'm not tearing up anything. What's in this box? Get out of there. That's my stuff. What are you doing with this old moth-eaten squirrel tail? That's a fox tail and leave it alone. Well, you must have a pin in this junk somewhere.

Holy cow, recognize room looking for a pin. I've got to pin a bow on my blouse. Janie Liggetz Anne is visiting her from New York and she's taking Janie and me to a tee this afternoon.
