Direct contact between the pan and heating element provides cooler, faster, thriftier cooking . . . cleaner pots and pans, too. Electric ovens require no vents, so are insulated on all six sides—all the heat stays in the oven. Once the oven temperature is up, it automatically shuts off for fully three-fourths of the time . . . that saves electricity!” If you cook electrically, go to the electric appli ance dealer of your choice for a FREE GIFT NEBRASKA-IOWA ELECTRICAL COUNCIL IPENNEYiS MONTH SPECIALS MEN’S cool. — Straw Caps_50c MEN’S SI MMER — Dress Oxfords __ $7.00 MEN’S CIIAMKRAY Work Shirts_$ 1.00 MEN’S CASI AI. — Slip-on Shoes_$4.68 MEN’S STRIPE — Polo Shirts, small _ --- $1*00 ■ Children’s Summer Sandals Brown or Red $1.50 - $2.00 SIZE 2 Vz to 8 — H Vi to 3 BLUE OK TAN — SIZE 4 6 8 — Jr. Boys’ Play Shorts —.50c JR GIRLS’ 2 PIECE SHORTY — SIZE 2 to 0 — Plisse Pajamas,_$ 1,00 TODDLER GIRLS’ — Sport Sets, 4 - 6x_$ 1,00 Sail Cloth, 36-in_yd. 75c WOMEN’S, SHADOW PROOF, FI ’LL PANEL — j Plisse Slips, white_$ 1,98 WOMEN’S — Summer Millinery_$ 1 $2 WOMEN’S COTTON PRINT — Skirts-$2.98 - $4 JR.
