TRAVELING
On Monday of this past week,
Emilie and Fritz A. Toepper-
wein went traveling. They vis-
ited in Bergheim, Bulverde, Ho-
ney Creek, Smithson Valley, An-
halt and Spring Branch.
To put it in their own words:
“We saw some of the most pic-
turesque country in the world.
The newly planted com fields,
the growing wheat and at fields
made patterns to challenge ar-
tist and architect. The mead-
ows alive with colorful spring
flowers, with the gay wild ver-
bena in profusion. The age old
rock fences covered with fresh
green vines. The Texas blue
bonnet and morning primrose
gave dashes of color to a lush
countryside. Perhaps the Moors
of England, or a Scottish High-
land are more beautiful, but
right alongside of these, we
must surely place our own bea-
tiful green hills in Spring.”
. Time, 9 p. m. untT ?; place,
Fair Grounds; date, April 29;
music, Bill Lister; sponsor, Fair
Association.
All kinds of containers for

There’s nothing to equal an electric range for
real palate-pleasing results, as thousands of
satisfied users will testify. In choosing a new
range, let the modern housewife who knows
advise you which type of cooking is best by
every test.
V a&tL
Your electric kitchen is as cool as your living room! Why?
Since no fuel is burned, no draft through the oven is needed—all the heat stays inside
the six thickly insulated walls. Cooking vessels completely cover surface elements—there-
fore, all heat is transferred from the elements directly to the bottom of the utensil, almost
^ j^ none to the kitchen.
V <m,e£ecrn
Since no flame is used, no soot is formed, and vessels stay
bright and clean without use of abrasives. Woodwork, walls, and curtains stay clean and
bright. Uniform red heat without hot-spots prevents food adhering to the utensils. You
need no steel wool in an electric kitchen. Just a cloth and a little soap, and the range
^ Jr is clean as a plate!
This is the electrical age! Intelligent housewives the
nation over know that only through electricity can they obtain modern living!
As the turn of a switch! Electrical elements come to cooking
temperatures in a matter of seconds. Draftless ovens and modern high-speed surface
elements make electric cooking the fastest method known today.
The lowest over-all cost of any method
of cooking. With longer range life, less food shrinkage, higher vitamin cooking, freedom
from abrasives for cleaning, infrequent need for kitchen redecoration and $1.50 to
$2.00 per month operating costs—It costs far less to cook electrically.
-r —~ r ■» 1
V CMcusi,
Always the same fine resultsl Electrical heat con-
trol is accurate, electric heat is constant, electric heat is dependable, and with no oven
drafts, electric heat distribution is uniform. Just set the switch or the dial and the results
ji are assured.
V
Locate the range anywhere in the
kitchen. No hoods, no drafts to bother you. Then with accurately controlled heat, cooking
is a pleasure, not a chore. Clean, no scouring of messy pots and pans, this takes the
drudgery out of dishwashing
y aruagery out or aisnwasmng.
w <&£, (Zutamztle
Start and stop cooking while you are
away! You need not be present while the range automatically starts and stops cooking.
What a time-saver!
V
w Safe as an electric lightl Cool oven walls, cool table-top
surface. Children turning switches come to no harm. What greater safety is possible than
from electric cooking?
