Walker Electric Dishwasher Sink

MODEL 112R

Does Your Sink Wfork You-- or For You? A T LAST a glorified kitchen sink with electric dishwasher tested and proven

beyond experiment. At the touch of a switch dishwashing and drying is accomplished without fuss or bother-as though a magic wand were waved. Dishes bright and shining-cleaner from the hot, cleansing water action than is possible by hand.

Thousands of women are already enthusiastically praising their Walkers- lamenting only that some one did not do this for them years ago. The Walker is the result of years of careful painstaking experimentation. The machine is so simple that a child can operate it.

The approval of Good Housekeeping Institute, The Delineator Home In- stitute, Priscilla Proving Plant, are just a few evidences of nation-wide en- dorsement. Let us send you free booklet giving interesting facts about time, hands, health and dishes saved by the WALKER. Dept. 1000 You owe it to yourself and Walker Dishwasher Corp., Syracuse, N. Y. family to read this book. C Please forward booklet, " The Dawn of a New
