TO BUYERS OF COAL
Did you ever stop to think how much
cheaper and easier it is to keep warm in
the Winter than it is to keep cool in the
Summer time? Ice, electric fans, vaca
tions, trips to the mountains and seashore,
paid for by the average family, make their
fuel bills look small by comparison.
Don't forget about "keeping warm" next
winter.
