Giving Dinner
Service Away
Another Feature OF The Cooking
School.

The f. H. Beale Furniture Co.,
have contributed a APIECE Dinner
Service to be given away during the
Cooking School conducted this week
by Mrs. Lila Pauline Cross.
They have supplied Mrs. Cross
with one of their beautiful Napanee
Dutch Kitchenets and two white
porcelain top tables to be used dur
ing her demonstrations of the Gull
mary art at City Hall. In selecting
the Napanee Dutch kitchenet Mrs.
Cross emphasizes the absolute need
of a kitchen cabinet in the modern
kitchen.
Permanent usefulness! Isn't that
what makes any Kitchen Cabinet
really worthwhile? You spend
about third of your life in your
kitchen. Why shouldn't it be as
CHEEKY as your living-room? Why
shouldn't kitchen furniture be as at
tractive and as strongly built as
Eyour dining room furniture?
What If a kitchen cabinet does
have a multitude of features? II
the drawers soon begin to stick and
bind, If the back warps out OF
shape, if the catches on the door
don't catch and the doors them
selves sag and won't close tightly
in other words, If the cabinet isn't
built sturdily, it's marvellous features
are worthless-are they not? Anc
that's the main reason why yot
should consider the Napanee Dutch
Kitchenet when thinking of kitchen
cabinets. For a Napanee will last 6
| lifetime-and it will stay solid ane
sound as long as 1t lasts.
The Napanee has all the worth
while features you want and expec
to find in a kitchen cabinet. But, II
addition, it has the unseen servic'

Glenwood Gas Range To
Be Awarded Grand Prize
Glenwood Range Similar to One Being Used
by Mrs. Cross at the Journal Cooking School
Will be Awarded AS Grand Prize Friday


Baking temperatures are controlled
by the marvellous Glnewood- Robert
shaw oven heat control. This device
is certainly the most valuable baking
help ever invented and when COM
bined with the Insulated Glenwood
heat retaining walls 1t leaves nothing
to be desired. All the guesswork,
worry and fuss Is forever removed
from your cooking operations. Just
set the white handle and the Insul-
ated Glenwood oven holds the bak-
ing heat perfectly even for hours at a
time.
In addition of the marked eff
cheney Of the Insulated Glenwood, is
the outstanding quality of construc-
ton. 1t Is strong and durable-built
to last much longer than the ordinary
range. Everything about 1t is con-
veniently arranged.
Housewives Safeguard
The American Gas Association
Testing Laboratory experts, the
worlds highest authorities on gas
range construction, have awarded
their seal of approval to Glenwood
gas ranges. The A. G. A. stamp OF
approval is important. 1t is the
housewives safeguard against infe-
rior gas ranges.
The entire inner construction Of the
Insulated Glenwood is enameled on
both sides, making 1t absolutely rust
resisting. easily cleaned and sanitary
This feature Is highly important
because 1t Is well-known fact that
the inner construction of the old
style gas range is It's weakest point
The Glenwood people do not slight
these hidden parts-they put such
honest to- goodness workmanship
into them that the life of their range
Is tripled.
Two cast-iron oven racks with a
patented feature that allows them
to be drawn out and remain in a
fixed position for use as shelves are
provided. They are strong and rigid
do not sag with heavy bakings and
the heat-holding properties of the
heavy cast-iron help to retain that
exact eveness in heat, especially in
center of oven where trouble is ex-
perienced when using light wire
racks.
One burner of only one-half tn,
usual size supplies both baking over
above and broiling oven beneath. The
ingenious Glenwood flue principl;
conveys the heat from burner tc
baking oven exactly even, top and
bottom.
There are countless Glenwood fea-
lures of merit and we know that
during Mrs. Cross's lecture and dem
onstration you will learn more about
the value of the insulated. ventilated
controlled heat Glenwood.

Surprise At The
Cooking School

Every Woman Would Like

Mrs. Cross has discovered many
other ways of making work enjoy
able for the housewife. besides the
modern methods of food preparation.
Like other experts in her field, Mrs.

Portable footwear. It makes ire
mendous difference in how one feels
at nighttime, after the multitude of
details In conducting the well order
ed home, If the question of proper
ly fitting shoes has been given the
consideration 1t deserves.
Mrs. Cross has long been a firm
believer in Cantilever Shoes, which
are handled locally by The Quality
Shoe Store, and through an arrange
ment with Mr. Arthur c. Liable, will
present some fortunate lady, at the
conclusion of one of her lectures,
with an order on The Quality Shoe

Shoes desired.

A Business to Prolong Life

A business whose sole aim is to
develop the growing child and the
health of the father and mother is
business we'll worth while.
Mrs. Cross of the kennebec Jour-
nal Cooking School was conducted
Monday thru Harris Baking Com
panys wholesale bakery on North
street, Waterville.
In her talk with Mr.. and Mrs.
Harris she learned a little of the
history and aims of this successful
bakery.
Starting from very small begin
ming fourteen years ago, with no
capital but courage and the ability
for hard work Mr.. Harris now has
one Of the largest and best equipped
wholesale food plants in Maine and
one of the finest and most up-to-
date retail bakeries in New England.
The reason for this steady growth
is due, Mr.. Harris believes, to the
desire to produce at all times Bak-
cry Products of the highest standard
possible. Everything Is done with
this object in view. The seventy
employees of this company are in
stilled with this aim. The very best
and purest ingredients go into the
making of Harris Better Bread, Cake
ment has been chosen which will
produce and maintain these products
without variation in quality and
finer than the housewife can make.
In proving to the housewife that
she can buy a better loaf of bread
bread than she can make, Mr.. Harris
! feels that he has performed real
service.
In order to still further help the
busy housewife with her problems.
ten trucks and teams start every
morning from the Baking plant on
North Street with fresh goods that
| were baked during the night and
deliver these Harris Better Products
directly to her door.
Routes have been established In
Augusta, Oakland, Skowhegan, Fair
field and Waterville and on longer
| distances their goods are shipped by
express to cities and towns all thru
Maine.
After Mrs. Cross had been con-
! Quoted thru the plant and inspected
the ram materials, methods and
equipment for producing Harris
Better Products, she heartily indors-
ed the using of Harris Better Bread,
Harris Sandwich Bread and Harris
Whole Wheat Bread as well as Har-
ris' Better Myonnaise in her Demon.
strations in Augusta this week.
This is the second time in the past
two weeks that Harris Products
have been chosen by cooking school
experts.
Augusta housewives are fortunate
to have Harris Better Products de-
liyered fresh at their door every
day by courteous, friendly statesmen.

the Glenwood- Robertshaw Oven Heat
Control, will be presented as Grand
Prize to some person attending the

December 3.

awards. These tickets must be saved
in order to entitle you to participate

ernoon.
What is Your Bid?
In addition to giving away a Glen
wood Gas Range the Central Maine
Power Co., as further contribution
to the success of the Kennebec Jour-
nails Free Cooking School. are going
to sell to the highest bidderc the
two Glenwood Gas Ranges used by
Mrs Cross during the Cooking
School. They are new from their
stock and carry the same regular
guarantee. The regular selling price
of the large range is $4,000 and the
smaller s93.25.
Mrs. Cross knows from past expe-
rience that she can rely on this re-
markable gas range. There must be
complete CO. ordination between her
efforts and the cooking appliance to
insure every one of her famous re-
cipes coming from the oven in the
perfect condition which she demands
The Insulated Glenwood Is the
most complete gas range that we
have ever seen. Double walls tight
ly packed with mineral wool (the
best insulating material for the pur-
pose known to science) entirely sur
round the Insulated Glenwood ovens
And, too. it differs from the ordinary
insulated fireless- cooker type of gas
range; the Insulated Glenwood being
ventilated so that all danger of soggy
or steam-t tainted food is eliminated
Stewing, boiling, ETC., is done in oven
think of it. And the fact that fish
may be broiled without the slightest
smoke and odors esca ping into kitch-
en- or scenting the oven walls Is an
achievement unknown to any other
type of cooking appliance.
No Waste Of Gas
Gas service is only as valuable as
the appliance that uses it. Not one
penny's worth of gas is wasted In the
insulated Glenwood oven. Tests have
proved that the empty oven will op-
crate at 800 degrees baking heat for
less than one cent an hour-the low
est baking cost ever known in a
cooking appliance, regardless of the
fuel used.
