Dear Editor,
I would like to make a tribute
to our county hospital.
I want everyone to know that
I believe we have not only one
of the prettiest hospitals in the
slate, but also one of the best
jrcrctcd.
The nurses are efficient, kind,
and courteous at all times, the
food is good and my doctor was
all one could ask for.
All in all, I almost hated to
get well and have to leave such
a pleasant environment.

When you cook electrically, there’s no need to hover
over the range keeping a constant watch on your cook-
ing. An electric range provides precisely controlled heat
for every cooking operation. You simply select the cook-
ing heat you want and you get the same even heat from
the same switch setting every time. You can leave the
kitchen, knowing foods will be cooked properly. And you
can repeat recipes with confidence of the same perfect
results every time. See your electric range dealer soon.
