HOW LARGE-SCALE PRODUCTION
SERVES HUMANITY

How LAi&GE~SCALE PRODUCTION
SERVES HUMANITY
There was CONSERVATION recently in
big midWestern city. Word went
round that there was an alarming
shortage of ice. How would food be
kept? What would the hospitals do
without ice? Ice must be had. Ice
meant keeping the laughter in little
eyes and the patter in little feet, It
meant the reviving draught for toss
ing sufferers on beds of pain. It
meant refreshing glass of water for
tired Mothers. It meant the ready,
steady, imperative necessary main-
tenance of the city's very vitality.
Without diyerting one cake from the
thousands of tons needed to COOL
travel Georgia'S enormous peach crop
to the markets that sent back the
streams Of gold that brought new life
to GeOrgia'S finances without di-
verting one pound from the refriger-
ators Of those who daily depend on us
for the crystal block that holds the
SNGCLUCSS, lICdILllI liliiSoo ctIIO octICIN
in their foods, we shipped daily vast
stores Of ice to that troubled city,
averting untold distress and main
tanning for its people their needed
supply Of ice until the resumption of
their own local supply.
Their dire necessity was large scale
productions opportunity, Millions of
dollars leaping to enlistment in hui
manity's service, functioning, per-
haps, to keep some poor family, in
that PARKWAY city, supplied with the
daily piece of ice needed to guard the
milk of little tot, the life and light
of a Workingman's cottage.
Service is not lifeless by-word in
our plants, but the vivid, actuating
spirit of our entire organization.
High thanks are due and hereby rem
dcred to every patron who has helped
us to make this a business in which
millions Of dollars are harnessed to
the service OF humanity.

 Announcement today by Secretary of the Treasury Mellon of the ap- pointment of Forbes as director of the war risk bureau sets at rest any idea of his becoming Alaska's governor
