Mrs. Newell K . Sanders chooses
her refrigerator as a good example
o f how electrical appliances help her
to derive greater satisfaction from
housework, and extra leisure time
for enjoying life.
" I can make one trip to the store
where I made three before, and buy
fresh food that will last for a week
with not one bit o f spoilage,” Mrs.
Sanders says. “ This helps me to buy
in economical quantities too. Every
thing stays so fresh, from salad dress
ings. and breads, to Sunday's roast.”
The electric range, water heater
and other appliances in her all*
electric home also come in for Mrs.
Sander's praise. "Th ey save so much
time and effort I wouldn't trade
them for anything.”
