BATHTUBS VERSUS AUTOS
Unofiicial reports figure that Cordele now has about
one-third as many bathtubs as autos, which is quite a
gain from three years ago considering the increased num
ber of autos used. We think the advance is due to a more
rcfined eivilization we are evolving, due of course (of
course!!) to our reecently organized School of Plumbing
and Heating!!! One of the pessimists that infests the pub
lic loafing places says it ain’t just natural cleanness make
’em buy bathtubs but you have to get the dust off your
hide after you've been auto viding. We leave the selection
of the reason to you! We know when we put yours in you
will have a good reason.
Speak for yours now if yeu want one this summer, and
don’t forget that we put in mighty good heating of all
kinds from the modest pipeless to the most perfect vapor
system. i g aed
