compares it to watch. The heart fs

lator and what we put into it is the key

No other food is so rich in nutrition
as Malta-Vita, and we know of no other
SO easily digested. This is why Malta
Vita gives the human body so much
strength and energy.
Malta-Vita is the whole of the best
white wheat. cooked and steamed, mixed
with pure barley matt extract then
rolled into little wafer flakes and baked
crisp and brown. The wheat contains
every food element required by the
human body. In its natural form. how
ever, the wheat is not easy to digest be-
cause of its starch. The exclusive Malta
Vita process overcomes this disadvantage
and turns the wheat into THE Perfect
Food"
The thorough cooking and steamine
breaks down the starch cells and the
malt extract converts the starch into
maltese, or malt sugar. Maltese is highly
nutritious and the weakest stomach di-
gests it easily. All its elements OF
strength and energy are taken up by the
system, forming rich, red blood and sup
plying the body with vitality.
And Malta-Vita is so good to eat! No
other food, has that delicate, satisfying
Malta-Vita taste. Just as delicious as

Why Perfect Beer
Means Health
Good Beer Is Possible Only with Eight
Day Malta Scientific Fact.

Day Malta Scientific Fact.
A perfect beer is healthful-it builds
up strength. promotes health, aids di-
gestion and acts as tonic in giving
renewed vitality. A perfect beer is
possible only with perfect malt, and
a perfect malt can only be made by
the eight-day process used by Pabst.
Malt is made from barley. Barley
contains in it's elementary form the
constituents that go to build up the.
human system, bone, muscle, blood and
brain. The process of making malt, as
some of our readers may know, is much.
the same as the process of digestion.
The grain is started growing the same
as if planted in the ground. The
chemical changes that take place in
the growth of the rootlets when it
sprouts are similar to the action of
the digestive fluids in the body if the
grain were eaten. The Pabst eight
day mailing process thus retains in
predigested form in the beer all of the
nutritious, life-giving elements of the
grain.
Pabst has proven by scientific ex-
periments and years of practical brew
ing that eight days are required in
making malt to bring about those
necessary chemical changes by which
the perfect predigested malt is pro-
duced. In many breweries the old
shorter process is still used This
covers period of not more than three
or four days and the malt is of forced,
unnatural development, lacks in nutri-
tion and is in all ways inferior, much
of the vital nutriment of the grain be-
ing lost.
Pabst eight-day malt, the perfect
malt. doubles the cost of brewing-but
Pabst Malt, with the exclusive PaDst
method of brewing. makes Pabst Blue
tonic and a delicious beverage. ..

physicians who examined him declared it to be
an old hurt and the fight was ordered to
proceed. Potts kept we'll out Of Fitzgerald's
punches and rushes until in the ninth, when he
was knocked out and Fitzgerald was awarded
the decision. Fitz was the aggressor from the
start and pushed the battle to the limit and
apparently escaped any serious punishment, while

DR.. WILLIAMS SALARY
The University Council Considers Re-
ducing Coach's Pay.

Whether or not to cut down the salary Of
DR.. II. l.. Williams, the football and track
coach at the state university, is the ques-
tion before meeting of the university council,
faculty body, this afternoon:
DR.. Williams is now working out the last
of three years contract with the University
Athletic association, a student controlled body,
and has signed another contract, which will
go into operation Sept. J., under which he is to
receive $500 yearly. Basing their action on
the recommendation of the Angel !. conference,
that Of professor d the counen has already
signifed desire to fix DR.. Williams salary
at $4,000 a year, with reckless disregard for
the already existing contract between the coach
and the athletic association. ~ =
Student and alumni comment upon this ac-
tion of the faculty is anything but favorable.
They point to the fact that both Chicago and
Michigan have retained their coaches at their
former salary, 80,
