ELECTRIC
APPLIANCES
O MOST of us, at Christmas time, the one gift
of all, is Mother’s. We just naturally try a
little harder to choose an appropriate one, for
her particularly. A gift for the household, means
added comfort and more recreation. A household
gift to Mother is always welcome, certainly it
reflects your thoughtfulness.
Hotpoint Electric
Appliances make desirable Mother gifts.
1 he H o tp o in t E lectric P ercolator, for instance, is
really a modern household necessity. Hotpoint
Percolators have the well-known Hotpoint Auto
matic Safety Switch and the Hotpoint valveless
percolating apparatus.
T
Then there is th ello tp o in tiE lec tric Iron. With its
labor-saving attached stand, Mother need not lift
the iron at all —simply tilt it back, and another
advantage is the thumbrest—“ It Rests the W rist.’’
The H otpoint Radiant Grill is fine for Mother too.
It enables her to prepare the breakfast right on the
table. No tiring steps to and from the kitchen. The
Grill boils, broils, fries and toasts.
Hotpoint Electric Appliances are all practical. Visit
our salesrooms today—let us show them to you.

W e don t mind the Christmas rush except that it
causes inconvenience to you and the rest of our
customers— and, of course, we don’t like that.
Shop early in the month, early in the day— that’s
pretty good advice — but of course we’re glad to
see you any time.
