At the North-East Coast Exhibition (England) they have to provide meals for about 30,000 people daily. The only fuel that is used for this vast scheme of cooking and catering is gas.
Similarly, when Messes. Lyons were entrusted with the whole of the catering for the British Empire Exhibition at Wembley they relied entirely upon gas as the fuel för providing 100,000 meals a day.
The moral needs no pointing; the lale needs no adorning. Obviously a fuel which is used for such great under- lakings has unrivalled merits of reliability, speed, suitability and economy,
