Halloween Party SATURDAY, OCT. 22 Old Spot Inn O PRIZES FOR BEST COSTUMES GOOD FOOD AND DRINKS Oscar and Hermine Weingariner^ Next Door to Pistakee Yacht Club mm Everything stays clean twice as long in a flameless electric kitchen ;tS' There's no flame to create dirt that smudges walls or ceilihgs. A clean-cooking electric range cooks without soiling, keeps your kitchen clean about twice as long. Result: you spend half as much time and money on washing and decorating. Heats food--not you. A flameless electric range transfers heat to the pan and directly into foods--not your kitchen. The oveh is insulated on all six.sidjaB (not just five). Hardly any heat escapes. Your kitchen stays at .least ten degrees, cooler. When you build, buy an epplianoe, or remodel your kitchen, keep in mind the clean, fume-free i . . cooking you get in a flameless electric range.
