Everyone
Will Appreciate This
Bread
Yes, that's a mighty broad state
ment to make, but we are cer
tain because a loaf of Butter Nut
bread contains so much more
real tantalizing,' appetizing 'fla
vor than ordinary bread. once
you try Butter Nut you'll like it
so much then you'll want it
all the time. Just try a loaf today.

If everybody in La Grande and the sur
rounding community suddenly became
absolutely satisfied with everything,
wouldn't it be a calamity?
It's funny that we continually seek sat
isfaction' and contentment, yet, fortu
nately, never find it.
In fact, we delilcrately try here in our
bakery to keep ourselves a little dis
satisfied with the very best we can do.
Thus, we frequently find we can do bet
ter. !
The vciy best we can do to please you,
is in our opinion not quite good
enough to suit us.

A quality that never varies comes only from methods that never vary.
That's why cheap coffee-making and fine coffee-making do not belong
together. There is one coffee roaster who specializes on fine coffee
making only. No ind or 3rd grades no cheap blends ever enter or
leave those fragrant roasting rooms the only place in America where
that is true. There is no divided interest --no Confusion of quality.
That's why Schilling coffee is the one that never varies in fine flavor.
