Pick up the telephone, call your Steamfitter or Plumber and say: “What is the price of ArcoLa with an American Radiator in each room in my house, installed NOW?” Remember to say, “installed NOW.” The NOW is impor- tant. The diagram at the top of the page shows why. The crowd waits until it is cold in the Fall before install- ing heating equipment; then everybody wants his ArcoLA installed at the same time. You save yourself time, worry and money if you order in the Spring. Arcora costs less this month, NOW, than ever before in its history. Don't hesitate for fear of wasting your Steamfitter’s time. He has much more time NOW than he will have next Fall. He is waiting for your telephone call; waiting to show you these three great ArcoLa 1.
