Even the young folks can remember when all soda /
/
crackers were bought from an open box or barrel.
At that time they were only used because there was
nothing better.
But now the perfected soda crackers
in their moisture and dust proof packages are a
staple 3-times a day food. The fact that nearly * & > V
half a million packages are eaten every day in
the year shows the popular appreciation of
