I Avoid Poorly Balanced Breakfasts

Start the day with Quaker Oats —food that “stands by” you. IF you feel tired, hungry, “fidgety,’' hours before lunch, don’t jump to the conclusion of poor health. Thousands have unenergetic mornings because they start the day with wrong breakfasts. To feel right, you must have a well-balanced, complete, breakfast ration.

Mr. Wendell Sherk, vice-president of this company, has just prepared a brochure on the subject, “Diversification of Investment.” We also are prepared to give our clients personal advice on this subject to fit individual requirements.
