X Try Breakfasts that ''stand by” you Say Business Heads If Draggy Mornings Hold You Back—Quaker Oats Widely Urged RECENT commercial investigations show that almost 70% of the day’s important work in offices, stores, etc., falls into four short, be-fore-luncheon hours. Likewise, 80% of the day’s important classes in nearly every school and college in America fall, too, into the same period. Thus breakfasts of well-balanced, complete food — food that “stands by" you through the morning—are being urged widely today by experts. Quaker Oats, containing the excellent food balance of protein, carbohydrates, minerals, vitamine “B” and the essential laxative “bulk” of oats is ideal food for that purpose. No other cereal grown compares in food balance. Delicious and enticing, Quaker Oats corrects the mistake of inadequate breakfast eating. Start now with Quaker breakfasts. Note then your mornings. Grocers have Quick Quaker (cooks in 214 to 5 minutes) and regular Quaker Oats. Quaker Oats
