How Philadelphia earned Bond Bread In all the world, there is nothing more vital than bread. Bread has written many chapters of human history. The most fascinating chapter of bread-history has been written in Philadelphia during the past-few weeto. This tells how the Kolb bakeries gathered together the home-skill of 2000 Philadelphia housewives, and com bined that skill into a new loaf Bond Bread the moat nutritious and the most delicious loaf ever evolved. Instead of doing the usual thing instead of saying to Philadelphia housewives, "Here's what, we bakers think is good bread, eat it" instead of that, the Kolb bakeries did as above illustrated. They said: "Mrs. Housewife, you like best the bread you make" it home. Please bake a loaf and submit it to us. We will match your loaf. We will make bread whatever way you say. This we can easily do, because we will use the very same ingredients as you use, and we will make it under scientific conditions, which will enable us to control humidity and temperature better than you can." "$how us," thought 2000 Philadelphia housewives, and this was their response: "Make it my way I am tired of baking." That was the housewives' answer. And so (on May li) 2000 house wives brought their home-made loaves to the Kolb bakeries. That afternoon 33 impartial experts (welj-kndwri women, in no way connected with the bakeries) analyzed the 2000 home-made loaves, and selected the 21 prize winners. These bread judges worked without contyerisatiori. Their only motive was to help Philadelphia win bdttdr bread Bond Bread combining the home-dkill of 2000 housewives. Then the Kolb baking experts took the" 2J. tfr'ize' winning loaves. They examined them. They analyzed them. They experimented for a whole week. At last (last Monday) Philadelphia received th Bond Bread which those 2000 housewives had earned for their city. And, every day, more and more Philadel phians are adopting this child of those 2000 housewives. Here are some of the reasons why: "I take Bond Bread because it has that real home made flavor." "I buy Bond Bread because it is so evenly textured that it slices thinly and without waste." "I am forced to buy Bond Bread because my chil dren will be content with no other bread, since they have tried Bond Bread." "I insist on Bond Bread because I lik6 to know what we eat, and Bond Bread's ingredients are fujly listed on each loaf, and guaranteed under the Kolb Bond." "Bond Bread appeals to me because each loaf comes sealed in a germproof wrapper." But there are many who insist on Bond Bread with out knowing why. Some think that "Bond Bread is mor digestible." Fact is that Bond Bread is more digestibfc, by far, than the best of those home-made loaves. Likewise, Bond Bread is more nutritious. Its" ingredients are the same as used in the bet hom-mad bread. But, more than that, those materials are mixikl and raised and baked by a new process that enables Boatf Bread to make each wheat-grain nourish more thaa tyr before.
