Easy-to-enter contest I Simply
write a slogan about the man on
the bag of Drifted Snow Flour!
Take a good look at this man! He'll inspire you to write
a slogan! Why, the first idea that pops into your head
may be a winner! And remember . . ; this contest is for
Westerners only ...no national competition!
Help yourself to these helpful hints .
"Matter of successful baking"! That' an apt type of slogan
for the man. on the bag, because whenever you see him you
know the flour inside the bag is dependable. The baking per
formance of Drifted Snow "Homi-Perfected" Flour is tested
regularly by 117, western women right in their own kitchens.
' "Friend of four generations"! A slogan something like this
would be appropriate for the man on the bag, because Sperry
, Flour has been a favorite in western homes for ninety-two years.
"Guardian of good health"! That suggests itself as a slogan
because Drifted Snow Flour is vitamin and mineral enriched.
"Bakes everything better" comes to mind as a slogan when you
consider that Drifted Snow is an all-purpose flour . . . successful
for baking cakes, cookies, hotbreads, pastry.
