REDDY says . . .
"Let's Go Modern -- It's Really Cheaper"
The progressive family that today is using electricity for refrigeration, for cooking, and for water heating is not only enjoying the manifold advantages of these automatic home services, but they are actually saving money. They are living better, more comfortably, without the drudgery, labor and worry that attend the old methods-they are actually LIVING BETTER for LESS.
It costs the average family less per day than the cost of a single loaf of bread to cook electrically. Automatic hot water service through an electric automatic water heater is available also to the average family for less than the price of a package of cigarettes per day.
The cost of electric automatic refrigeration to the average family is about the cost of a package of chewing gum per day.
Electric refrigeration, electric ranges, electric water heaters-any of these appliances of the makes you are likely to desire may be had on terms to fit your budget. Easy to buy- inexpensive to operate-and yet they bring indescribable comfort and freedom from work and worry.
