Jewish mothers (and fathers) have traditionally boasted, and justifiably so, about their children's professional achievements. But in how many parts of the world can a Jewish parent proudly proclaim: "Meet my son, THE KNIGHT!" Certainly Scotland must stand in the forefront. In recent years Scotland produced three Jewish Knights, two Jewish Members of Parliament, a Lord Provost (mayor), and the only Jewish pipe-band in the entire world! Of course Scotland's most famous product is scotch whisky. And America's favorite scotch is J&B. We care- fully select the finest scotches and blend them for smoothness and subtlety. The result is why we say that RARE J&B whispers. Incidentally, you don't have to wait until your son becomes a Knight or your daughter a Dame in- order to •••• • enjoy J&B. Any `simcha' will do! itENC YC qs.KT ES s 19 CIO ••I J643. it whispers. 86 Proof Blended Scotch Whisky, ©1980 The Paddington Corp., NY ■ l
