Albin Prybylek, of Los Angeles, will prove it right here in Salem. He chose Fairmount Perfectly Pasteurized Milk to sus tain and norish him while making a grueling 4 day, 4 night endurance test of the Whippet car. Think of it, during all this time he will not have any rest or food except Fairmount Perfectly Pasteurized Milk. He chose that alone because it is rich and revitalizing because it is both food and drink and because it is pure and dependable.
