For years, many housewives followed the old time 34 00:02:21.240 --> 00:02:24.400 custom of making this soup in their own kitchens, until 35 00:02:24.439 --> 00:02:28.240 one by one they discovered Cambell's. They found that Campbell's 36 00:02:28.319 --> 00:02:31.840 vegetable soup had the same good flavor, the same nourishing 37 00:02:31.960 --> 00:02:35.479 quality they themselves had always driven to get. Now, if 38 00:02:35.479 --> 00:02:37.520 it happens that you are one of those who haven't 39 00:02:37.560 --> 00:02:40.879 made this discovery, and if you still think good vegetable 40 00:02:40.879 --> 00:02:43.719 soup can only be made at home, may I suggest 41 00:02:43.800 --> 00:02:47.639 that you try Campbell's vegetable soup. I'm sure it's convenience 42 00:02:47.680 --> 00:02:49.759 will appeal to you immediately. It's ready to serve in 43 00:02:49.840 --> 00:02:52.479 almost no time at all. But what is even more 44 00:02:52.520 --> 00:02:56.479 important is this. You will find in Campbell's vegetable soup 45 00:02:56.520 --> 00:02:59.879 the same good, homemade character and the same homey flavor 46 00:03:00.319 --> 00:03:02.599 that you'd look for in the finest cuttle of soup 47 00:03:02.719 --> 00:03:05.960 you ever made in your own kitchen. Campbell's have kept 48 00:03:05.960 --> 00:03:08.919 faith with time honored home traditions in making the soup. 49 00:03:09.520 --> 00:03:11.800 You can tell that in the taste of your first 50 00:03:11.840 --> 00:03:16.360 few spoonfuls. Expert home cooks sipping this soup critically. 51 00:03:16.319 --> 00:03:17.240 Not their approval. 52 00:03:17.840 --> 00:03:20.840 So won't you give Campbell's Vegetable Soup a trial? Make 53 00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:23.879 a note of it in planning to Morrow's meals? And 54 00:03:23.960 --> 00:03:26.800 now Margaret Sullivan and Arson Wells with Helen Morgan and 55 00:03:26.919 --> 00:03:33.840 authoress Edna Ferber in show Boats. 56 00:03:34.919 --> 00:03:37.639 If you were an obituary of old South Clark Street 57 00:03:37.680 --> 00:03:41.759 in Chicago's gay nighties, you may remember it still Nola 58 00:03:42.080 --> 00:03:46.039 Ravenel soup brettes and that amazing slow. 59 00:03:45.759 --> 00:03:48.280 Smile that's still talked about among the older. 60 00:03:48.120 --> 00:03:50.680 Writers on the dramatic pages, some of the same men 61 00:03:50.719 --> 00:03:52.719 who to day print four column pictures of a daughter 62 00:03:52.879 --> 00:03:57.000 Kim Kim Ravenel on the front pages of Sunday sections. 63 00:03:57.759 --> 00:03:58.759 To Magnoli had all. 64 00:03:58.680 --> 00:04:01.840 Seemed like a vague dream now, those long years in 65 00:04:01.919 --> 00:04:05.400 Chicago with Ravenel, months of heartbreak and failure after he'd 66 00:04:05.439 --> 00:04:10.439 gone away, the years of success playing Chicago, playing the Circuits, 67 00:04:10.439 --> 00:04:13.520 playing the East, and then at six day retired, living 68 00:04:13.520 --> 00:04:17.480 with Kim in New York, watching Kim's success, knowing all 69 00:04:17.480 --> 00:04:21.079 the right people, going to the right places, a strange 70 00:04:21.199 --> 00:04:24.000 dream world in which he'd been living all these years, 71 00:04:24.639 --> 00:04:28.519 and now suddenly back reality.
