when your mind was far from
Relrigators we were placing our
orders for the summer. We fig
ured on how m any we
would sell. Had them made

expectations, and we find
that we will have to call on
the manufacturers again for
another supply. The reason
is because ourpriccs and goods
are both right to suit you, Our
Reirigerators are constructed
on the common sense plan with
no useless parts attached to
make it appear what it isn't.
Every Refrigerator guaranteed
to be perfectly dry and up to
