Just notice how perfectly it ac centuates every detail in fabrics. Matching goods under its white rays is easy, for it radiates a daylight effect. You will notice that progressive stores every where arc using these G-E Mazda Lamps, for aside from their vastly superior quality of light tncy give nearly three times as much candle-power as the ordinary carbon incandescent lamps. And they cost no more to operate. This G-E Mazda is a most ingenious invention; it is simply revolutionizing lighting methods. Notice how greatly it improves the appearance of all the live stores along this street." "Traffic always determined by the way a street is lighted, arid that's why the night window gazers (and next morning buyew) ore irresistibly drawn to stores using these beaming G-E Mazda Lamps." Wc want you to come in for a moment today nnd Ictus prove to your entire satisfaction that if you arc not using electric light and the wonderful G-E Mazda Lamp you arc losing money nnd denying yourself comfort and convenience.
