Mother, is Maxwell House the best coffee in the whole world?

Well, your father says so, starring Robert Young as father. A half hour visit

with your neighbors the Anderson's brought to you by Maxwell House the coffee

that's bought and enjoyed by more people than any other brand of coffee at any price.

Maxwell House, always good to the last drop. To determine the sex of a gossip, we offer a positive plan.

A gossip is always a woman, except when the gossip's a man.

There's a little bit of gossip in the best of us, isn't it?

Not that we want to talk about people, perish forbid, but well one thing

leads to another and you know how it is. That's the way it is with the Andersons at any

rate. They'd rather die than gossip about their friends, and they don't, except on very rare occasions.

Like this.

Janie, she didn't. She did? Well, Betty. Just a minute, Father. Janie, you know I don't like to talk about people, but...

Well, Marion didn't exactly see her, but her cousin Phyllis has a friend.

Betty for the love of Pete I've got to use the phone.

Just a minute Janie.

Father this is very important.

Nothing can be that important.

It's almost 2 o'clock and you've been on the phone since noon.

Father, don't be redick.

I'm not being redick and get off the phone.

Okay, I'll be true in 2 seconds.

Hello, Janie, where were we?
