NO SUN but no washday worry

either— when you dry with a modern gas dryer

Rain or snow—there's no problem, once you own a

modern gas dryer. You can weather washday storms

—and still be sure your wash has the (rash, sweet

fragrance o( a sunny day when it's tumbled under

the gas dryer's ultraviolet lamp. And you dial by

fabric settings—the right heat for each fabric.

Beet news—your modern gas dryer is a model of

thrift, drying at just H the cost of others! See the

new models at Gas Company offices or dealer show-

rooms—you'll choose gas, naturally!
