Recent investigations, conducted in over 2,000 American schools and colleges, reveal 80% of the so-called > ’’hard’’ studies as falling in the i .morning. This percentage is confirmed by Prof. Willard, of Northwestern University, and other lead--1 ing educators. . Thus Quaker Oats breakfasts, providing the excellent food balance of protein, carbohydrates, vitamines 1 and the “bulk" to make laxatives seldom needed are being urged as a duty of parents in protecting their children’s most important working hours. No other cereal grown compares in food balance. Serve every morning. Their rich Quaker flavor makes them savory and enticing ... delicious breakfasts that yet “stand by” one. Get either Quick Quaker, which cooks in 2% to 5 minutes, or regular Quaker Oats today at your grocer’s. Quaker Oats t ____________________
