Dennis's mother visits

Ladies and gentlemen, this is Jack Benny and I want to take a moment to ask you not to do something. For by not doing it you can help our boys in the armed services. Don't do any traveling during the holiday season that isn't absolutely necessary.

Remember that thousands of soldiers, sailors and marines, as well as the waves and wax, are looking forward to spending Christmas with their families. And believe me, they've certainly earned a trip home. And surely none of us would want to cheat one of our boys out of such a furlough.

Maybe some of you have felt that just one more pleasure trip isn't going to disrupt the country's transportation system. But if millions of people feel that way, you can easily see what happens. Trains and buses become crowded far beyond capacity.

So that traveling is no pleasure anyway. So please take it seriously folks. Let's give our boys and their families a real break for Christmas. Let's give them a chance to be together on this one day of all days.

The Grape Nuts and Grape Nuts Flakes program, starring Jack Benny with Mary Livingston, Phil Harris, Dennis Day Rochester, and yours truly, Don Wilson. Old something new. That's the story of Grape Nuts for you. Yes, way back in the days when Wait till the Sun shines, Nelly, was the song of the day.

The talk of the day was the sensational new breakfast cereal Grape Nuts. Well, Grape Nuts are still the leading American favorite, and one taste of that distinctive, molly-rich flavor tells you why. But today you can enjoy that one delicious flavor in two delicious forms.
