When canned Carnation Milk became available in grocery stores in approximately the early 1940's, she read an advertisement offering $5,000 for the best slogan. The producers wanted a rhyme beginning with "Carnation Milk is best of all...."
She thought to herself, I know all about milk and dairy farms .... I can do this!
She sent in her entry and about a week later, a large black limousine drove up in front of her house! .... a man got out and after knocking on her door informed her that, "Carnation loved your entry so much, we are here to award you $1,000, even though we will not be able to use it."
Here is her entry .... .... ....
