because it has all the muscle-building, bone-making material in the
whole wheat grain prepared in a digestible form, supplying all the
strength needed for work or play. It is ready-cooked and ready-to-eat.
It has the greatest amount of body-building nutriment in smallest bulk.
Its crispness compels thorough mastication, and the more you chew it
the better you like it. Shredded Wheat is the favorite food of athletes.
It is on the training table of nearly every college and university in this
country. The records show that the winners of many brilliant rowing
and track events have been trained on Shredded Wheat.
The BISCUIT is in little loaf form. It is baked a crisp, golden
brown. It is eaten with milk or cream, or fruit, or is delicious
when eaten as a toast with butter. TRISCUIT is the Shredded
Wheat wafer---the ideal food for the camp or the long tramp.
Building buster boys is bully business--that's the reason we want to
help the Boy Scout movement.
