Happy—what a word—what .
a world of meaning. A con
tented woman, proud of her
cooking machine.
All machinery is designed to lighten labor, to enable
one to do more *and do it better. Then cooking
machines are no exception and the Copper-Clad
cooking machine is The World's Greatest Range
Holding heat like a thermos bottle, a woman knows
v exactly what she can depend on. She knows, too,
that she is saving fuel. •
She appreciates a Copper-Clad most when it comes
to cleaning it. With no hinges, catches and latches,
with no ornaments or corners, with no rivet or bolt
i heads on the nickel, the Copper-Clad cleans like a
dish and is a woman,s delight. Then, why shouldn’t
a proud owner of a Copper-Clad be Range Happy?
Why shouldn’t the Copper-Clad be called The
World’s Greatest Range?
