There IS point which the public should

The COrby Brothers Personally.
In the interview with the Corby Brothers the in
vestigator impressed with the fact that they
earnest. straightforward young men, with the
ability, industry, studious habits and honorable
methods that make possible the great they
have attained. They came to Washington from Ith-
aca. y. Y, a decade ago. with q very small capf-
tai. except knowledge OF the baking business, and
integrity OF character and determination to
through the merit OF their product.
In their early days they met with the discourage
terpriss, but the men OF Washington with whom
they came In contact being impressed with their
integrity and the probability Of their making q
large success. were generous IN extending business
encouragement. The Corby Brothers proved thor
oughiy honorable in every transaction, and thus
were enabled develop their enterprise with the
hearty cooperation OF friends in business circles
Their business has long since passed the early
struggle stage. and is now established upon a
solid and prosperous basis, from which IL is
extending it's sphere Of influence TO the whole
civilized world, and the day is not far distant
when probably, every nation where bread is
used extensively, bread made by the Corby new

Wherever their breadmak king ma chimes have been
introduced they have met with great success They
showed me some letters from leading bakers GER
tlfying that their machines and processes are con-
sidered the greatest invention that has ever been
introduced into the bread baking business
The Cerby Brothers have made many friends I'm

the estimate Of the community. Their success is

attained success I'm an equal degree at their age.
There has been problem too dinhcuIt for their
solution. They have developed the scienti6c prip-
ciples OF their chosen enterprise and have devised
more ideas for the utilization this advanced
knowledge than have ever before been invented In
