All Cafes and Restaurants serve **Ovaltine' Cold. It's delicious. For the Beach fill your thermos Husk with ‘Övaltise¶ Cold, it is most refreshing and energy-giving.

Let Ovaltine make them adequate in nourishment

"Summer meals, whether at home or when picnicking, must be tempting, but they must be nourishing too. Hot weather appetites are capricious, and too often there is a lack of energy-giving nourishment in summer meals.

This is why 'Ovaltine' Cold should always be taken with meals; this delicious drink tempts the most fasti- dious appetite and makes the lightest meal complete in nutritive value.

Every food element essential for health is found in 'Ovaltine' "which contains all the concentrated" nourishment extracted from nature's most nourishing foods, milk, malt and eggs.
