KETTLE

At Least Shiny Kettles Have

Granite ware is the most economi-

It's easy to see why this is I'M
portant. Heat rays are very similar
to light rays, so the scientists tell
us. Just as the reflector is the
item of Significance in lighting
the searchlight would lose It's

kettle would reflect heat from the

whereas a dull surface absorbs heat
and allows it to do maximum WORK

Similarly, the kettle should have
an even surface, without the cor

sometimes found. These hoiloWs

Judgment requires and employs both
daring and restraint, daring TO think
