V3M0Kl StRVIHGS Bi RICH IN VITAMIN Thirteen of these fourteen little pictures show reasons why America's Christmas stocking was fatter in 1939 than in 1938. It bulged, in fact, as It has not done since the lush busi ness days of the twenties. "Some of these staggering numbers represent all-time records of American production or consump tion, including the out-put of steel, electric power, shoes, ray on and airplanes. War demands from abroad, more jobs and better farm Income at home propelleM factory wheels in their dizzy spring to new records, and many economists believe they will continue briskly well into 1940.

For our homes are not only the symbols of our liberty but our standards of achievement for all the rest of the world. In our homes we enjoy freedom of speech and opinion. Freedom of the press and freedom of speech by radio make it possible for every man, woman and child to be informed of the affairs of the world. There is another freedom we enjoy in our homes that is tht envy of th rest of the world freedom from drudgery, drafts and contamination. And for this freedom we can give thanks largely to the Heating and Plumbing Contractors of America. Heating and Plumbing are the twin guardians of our family welfare. Heat ing safeguards our homes against cold, dampness and discomfort upon which sickness thrives. Plumbing supplies the fresh, pure water so essential to well-being and carries away waste so dangerous to good health. Both Heating and Plumblna art too essential to the welfare of your family and to the uninterrupted enjoyment of your home to be entrusted to any but the skilled hands of a Heating and Plumbing Contractor.
