There are all kinds of gas services, = some good
and some bad, — but we, as your local author.
ized Happy Cooking Metered Gas Service repre-
sentative, believe that ours is best. We are part
of an LP-gas organization which serves 150,000
customers from Maine to Maryland.

Our suppliers of LP-gas back us up with service
training, superior equipment, hand-picked appli-
ances, dependable sources of supply and a wide
knowledge of the LP-gas business. As a result
our customers benefit in many ways and we are
proud to be a part of what we believe to be the
finest LP-gas Service Organization in the Country.

Everything is automatic
—to maintain constant
service to your range,
water heater, clothes
dryer, and other gas
appliances. There's al-
ways enough gas for
all your needs.
Happy Cooking meters
are precision built to
accurately measure the
gas you use — another
assurance that you are
getting full measure

You make no outlay of
cash in advance for
your supply of gas —
you pay only for the
gas you use, after
you've used it — just
like city gas users.
