Real Food-Substance
In Corn Flakes
POST TOASTIES are a substantial food.
They are crisp in cream—each spoonful delicious
with true corn flavor and a delicacy of taste posi
tively exclusive.
New Post Toasties are untouched by hand in the
spotless factories where they are made. They're
taken crisp and full of flavor from the ovens, and put
up in wax-sealed cartons which keep moisture out
and flavor in.
Housewives find a new meaning for the word "de
licious"—a new delight for the family—when they
first serve
(New}
Post Toasties

and unique service was held. Thursday
evening at the United Brethren Church
of which the Rev. C. E. Rettew is the
pastor.
Several months ago, this congrega

reality and the congregation decided to
support the Rev. C. A. Funk, a former
pastor, as their missionary.
At the service on Thursday evening
the pastor reported more than one
fourth paid in cash and more than four
fifths of the entire amount pledged. The
service was held In honor of the Rev.
and Mrs. C. A. Funk, who will sail this
