Housekeeping can now be fun or it can be drudgery. It all depends upon the working equipment of the bride's new home . . .. and if she has been provided with a corps of electrical servants, it will be fun. Do not be misled. Electric cooking is no longer expensive. In fact, in the average home, it is the cheapest fuel you can use. Ten years. ago wood cost less and electricity more; even then most people found electricity well worth the extra price. Today there is no excuse to carry wood and ashes, scrub and clean . . . and roast yourself over an old style cook stove all summer. WHEN YOU USE AN ELECTRIC RANGE ... you receive electric service on the combination rate which averages much less than Wthe lighting rate per kwh . . . electric cooking costs the average family of four less than 10 cents a day, (wood alone costs nearly as much, possibly more) . . . there is no wood to split and carry in, no ashes to dispose of, no soot to scour from stove, walls or pots and pons . . . you save as much as la the precious health giving vitamins and minerals in food boiled away by old-fashioned cooking methods. This new 1937, Westinghouse, Automatic Electric Range is now on sale and is the last word in scientific cooking equipment.
