If a child i doesn’t like oatmeal, win over famous / ’i "Quaker y Flavor" IWr'JrZ 2 y —————- —xK— ■*l ■ — j ' V THE reason some children don’t eat their oatmeal without urging is that they’re not given the right kind. There is a great difference in the flavor of oats. And flavor, above all things, is needed to win a child’s appetite. Quaker Oats has a unique flavor; a rich and toasty flavor you'll find In no other brand. That is why millions will accept no other kind. I Quaker milling, too, retains much of the "bulk'' of oats—which makes laxatives less often needed. Protein, carbohydrates, minerals, vitamines .and this “bulk” make Quaker Oats an excellent food balance. Today, get Quick Quaker (cooks in 1 to 5 minutes), or regular Quaker Oata as you have always known -them. Grocers have both kinds. Quaker Oats
