LUNEXPECTED GUESTS

A glass of cool, refreshing U.B. BEEN goes a long way towards dispelling the annoyance of an interrupted "quiet evening at home"...or to heighten the pleasure of welcoming guests who drop in at the opportune moment of what looks like being a "tedious evening alone".

Better look over your supply of U.B. BEER today, and assure yourself that your refrigerator is well -stocked-for either occasion.-
