The out- standing features are its roominess, its sanitary aspect and equipment, and the modern Kitchen Aid machine which is seen at the right. The housewife can now mix, beat, stir, whip, slice, chop, grind, chip ice, freeze, in fact do all of the tedious mechanical work in the preparation of delicious foods all by electricity, with the aid of this modern machine, at a cost of about one cent per hour. This time and labor-saving machine is the most competent of housemaids. That is why Kitchen Aid is to be found in an ever-growing percent- age of modern North Shore kitchens. Its success in communities like this has earned for it the endorsement of all the leading household magazines of the country: "Good Housekeeping," "Ladies Home Journal," and others. "Now the household does not seem able to get along without KitchenAid" Photo by Stanton . Wilhite, Winnetka says Mr. C. R. Crane of the Crane Co.
