T VERY form of strenuous sport, a race in
1- motor boats down the bay, a Marathon on
land, a hundred yard dash down a cindere
path, all quickly prove that the man who h
trained properly will win out. The most
important part of training is proper diet, food and

That explains the popularity of
Ground Chocolate
among athletes. Now if strong husky young men
find more nourishment and strength as well as
exquisite deliciousnessin Ghirardelli's Ground
Chocolate than in any other beverage, does it
not occur to you that it might aid you too in
attaining that proper physical "condition" which
is the basis pf all enjoyment and health?
Ghirardelli's Ground Chocolate is so
wonderfully nutritious because it is made from
the best cocoa beans, the kind that contains more
nutriment than any other food known to man.

The Good Roads Exhibit
Is the exhibit that received the approval of the U. S. Department of Agriculture, when
shown at the Minnesota Conservation and Agricultural Development Congress as the best ever
exhibited.
This exhibit of the Highway Commissious of the state of Minnesota is being constructed by
John II. Mullen, Assistant State Engineer of Minnesota, who will be in charge of the exhibit and
will lecture daily on the practical methods of better road building.
It shows in a practical and interesting way, the evolution of road making from the Indian
rail and cow path to the approved macadamized road of today.
