Once you step up to a gleaming white, beautiful Electric-'
Range, turn the switch, watch its surface coil glow red ire
a jiffy . . . see no flame, smoke or soot . . . smell no fuel!
odor . . . then, you will have the answer to why so many
thousands of Georgia housewives have changed to Elec
tric Ranges!
But that will be only part of the story. For cleanliness
is only one of the reasons why women who know ranges:
and cooking methods are turning to Electric Ranges so
rapidly. All - ’round performance , . . new speed . . -
greater economy . . . ease of operation . . . time-saving,
features these, too, are important reasons why more;
and more women are turning their backs on “non-elec
tric” stoves in favor of modern Electric Ranges.
Before you buy any range, be sure to investigate the
Electric Range. See why it’s clean. See why it’s safer. Sec
why it’s easy to use completely automatic. See why it
costs no more to run than “non-electric” stoves. Visit out
nearby store and see the modern Electric Range. Your
better judgment will tell you it’s the range to buy!
