Punishment of two Coast Guardsmen

Jacob II. Hanson of this city and of
the officers responsible for their orders
to shoot, is demanded in resolutions
adopted at mass meeting and sent to

The meeting at the State armory last

of western New York. Copies OF the
resolutions we're ordered forwarded to
Secretary Mellon and Senators Wagner
and Copeland.
Delegations from Buffalo. led by
Mayor Schwab. and other western New

visitors Mr. Hanson is secretary of
Niagara Falls Lodge of Elks and was
shot as he was returning home from

Electrolux is not merely quiet. 1t is
noiseless-for it has no moving parts.
Cold is produced by a tiny gas fame.
The heat does all the work. and so there
is nothing to wear out or cause trouble.
The freezing action is not only perpetual
but goes on without attention, The cost
of operation is SO small it's trivial. Once
the Electrolux comes into Your kitchen
You'll hardly know it's there. except that
You'll always have plenty OF ice cubes
and a constant low temperature Tor food
storage.
Until you've seen the Electrolux in
action YOU don't really know what per-
feet refrigeration is like. Therefore YOU.
should visit our display rooms and see
the full line Of sizes and models. Prices
range from S2SS to $500 installed COM
plete Ii YOU are thinking Of buying an
automatic refrigerator--if YOU ever
hope to own one, this is your big chance.
You'll be particularly interested in the

an exclusive yelling" process, in which

Naturally we do not expect that any
thing will 60 wrong or we could not at
ford to make this offer. This is one re-
frigerator from which you can literally
expect lifetime of service. When you
are through housekeeping and ready to
hand the Electrolux down to your chill
dren. it should still be in perfect working
condition. Before deciding to make this
guarantee. before even deciding to sell
the Electrolux at all, we investigated it
thoroughly. Hundreds of other public
utility companies put it to every con-
ccivable kind of test. Without exception
the reports were enthusiastically favor
able.
You probably know the important
facts about this remarkable refrigerator,
at least in a general way, but for the
benefit of those who do not, we will re-
view the more important points briefly,
The Electrolux operates on a reyolu-
tionary new principle, discovered BY
