President Roosevelt wilt lose ' bis

leaves tomorrow for horns.
Gamer, according to those In a
position to know, spenka his mind
more freely to the chief executive
than almost anyone else In the ad
ministration. He has been particu
larly valuable to the president be
cause of his long congressional ex
perience. Presidents of the United 8tat.
like other executives, hear "yea"
from their associates end advisors
more often than "no."
Gamer has learned through years
of public life to say "no" about as
emphatically as It con bo said. And
those close to him assert he has not
held his tongue when he went to the
White House.

OLD-FASHIONED COOKING
METHODS COST MORE THAN
-Jot U)Ae
the modern electrical way at the special low cooking rates now
charged for electricity.
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.
