Of the many trends revolutionizing housing, none has done more to recast living into a modern pattern than complete electrical services as indicated in this well planned house.
Constant research and manufacturing magic have brought forth a new freedom. Electric servants with economical efficiency have taken over the tasks and time-consuming domestic drudgery of the old order.
Lighting, heating, cooling, cooking, washing, cleaning, dishwashing, even waste disposal, are but some of the tasks done by electricity in this modern home.
General Electric's contribution to this new freedom is outstanding. The electrical servants-which are shown in this Electric Home may be yours, whether you live in a mansion or a modest home.
It is said that the additional coat of complete General Electric equipment, when equipment is covered by a single long-term mortgage loan, will average about fifteen cents a day.
At the rear of this house, in the garage, is the entertaining and amusing Magic Kitchen that moves, talks and tells a timely story. The car standing in the driveway is a new Nash with its "Weather
Eye" system of conditioned air for winter driving.
