—Next year you may not
be able to get them
for love or money!
Yes, production is being curtailed and
credit terms aren't what they used to be,
but think it over thoroughly before you de-
cide not to buy them for these reasons.
This Christmas we have normal stocks of
ranges, washers, refrigerators and many
other appliances, so it’s a wise idea to give
electrical gifts this Christmas when they
are available.
The electrical appliances you give this
Christmas will render years of efficient and
economical service during the critical times
ahead, when all of us will have to get along
with the appliances we now have or perhaps
do without.
If you are thinking about electrical gifts,
we suggest that you make your choice now.
