' 9 BUY THIS NEW ELECTRIC RANGE GIRLS AND BANISH COOKING WORRIES This was trie answer to the question asked of a young housewife whose family consisted of four. "How do you manage to play bridge so often?" She had an alert mind, was a true modern and a wise planner.

She was young, wanted her regu lar afternoons with the bridge friends, wanted to go to the club or dances with her husband in the evening. She saw no reason for being a household drudge. When the new automatic ranges employ time control and oven control, why shouldn't she let them be her model servants?
