The speeches were in four languages.

Great care had to be taken by Cohen
To see that his own rendition OF the

It was up to the interpreter to con-

Approval or rejection of suggestions

POINTS TO CONSIDER INA
MECHANICAL REFRIGERATOR

Of frozen puddings and other dain.
ties, be sure thc mechanical refrig-
orator that you buy has a tray with
good-sized receptacles for water to
freeze in, and that the machine will
freeze the water and desserts in n
short time.
OF course, We must not forget to
talk about price. When buying a
refrigerator, as in buying most other
labor saving devices, from automo-
biles to vacuum cleaners, you Gener-
ally get better values as you pay
more. It is also fact that a large,
well.established company, with a
large volume Of production, will give
you the best value for your dollars.
Of course you must learn few
rudimentary facts on how to take
care OF your machine, and the more
you know about it, the less it will
cost YOU to run, the better service
you will get. and the less repair bills
You will have to pay. If you are at
all sensitive about noise, you can us
ual'y have the compressor of your
eieetrie refrigerator placed in the
basement, or on the rear porch
Some of the newer machines, howcv-
or, are practically noiseless.
Look around carefully and buy
only when You have satisfied your.
self that the machine YOU like fits
your particular needs, because when
you buy an automatic refrigerator,
YOU are making an investment. that
should last for many years with
ordinary care.

When choosing a mechanical re-
frigerator there are n number of
things which you should consider.
First of all, be sure to buy ono
whose dependability has been proved
by number Of years Of actual use.
Some concerns have machines which
have seen more than decade of
service and are being used in many
thousands of homes under all sorts
Of conditions. Such machines are
backed by reliable companies who
may be depended on to give you
good value for your money.
Be sure that your local dealer is
man OF standing, who understands
how to Install the machine and who
has the reputation of giving good
service to his customers. Like your
automobile, refrigerator will need
some seryieing as the years roll on.
The best machines now being sold
require little service and repairs, be-
cause adjustments can be made right
in your home and no expensive fac
tory service is necessary at any
time.
Ask the dealer to tell you tho
names Of people WHO have used the
machine he is selling and find out
from them whether their machines
provide quick refrigeration, so t'la.
It does not take long for the temper.
ttrrc in the ice.box to lower to so
degrees after. the door has been op.
ened to. takc3o,it or put in food.
Find out from them the avcrage
operating costs of their machines.
Some use surprisingly little current,
rs it is used only when operating.
Remember that the simpler ma
chine the better it is. other things
teing equal, for there are less parts
to operatc and keep in repair.
The modern idea Of having bcauti.
full kitchens, many of them with
pleasing color schemes, makes it ne.
cessary, if you are the happy posses.
sor of s,fch a kitchen. to buy a re-.
frigerator whose coloring matches
your kitchen cabinet and other la
bor-saving devices. Many of the
new refrigerators not only bring sat.
isfaction, but add real beauty TO
ones kitchen. They have perfectly
proportionc1 cabinets with artistic
hardware, and are painted white.
two tones porcelain finish, or in any
color combination desired.

The Builders
Question Box

q. We IRE considering The re-
decoration Of our house, and since
this paint has faded quite badly in
the mohe sunny rooms, would like TO
have you suggest some coIors for
use in these rooms, as well as colors
for our north rooms. The aolor
which we used in the north room.
seems to make thc rooms dark. ",
want them to be light and eli, rful
\. The blues, greens and grays
are generally used in rooms where
there is u great amount of light
l lie yarc considered cool eolors, and
make room appear larger, there.
fore. are known rs rcccding co!ors.
For your north rooms usc The
warmer eolors snch as yellow. rcd
and orange. They are called adj
rancing colors. In choosing Tho
color schcme, however, avoid the
nse of bright color over any largo
area. lt,is, in fact, upon thc ecior
intensity az well a upon color
schemes That good results depend.
To Illustrate further, while blue,
iavcnaer ard red provide some Of
the best decorative effects, too
much blue alone is depressing: cx.
cessivc use of lavender and purple
causes nervousness and irritobilitv;
while a room in solid red might in
time cause Il normal person, if con
fined in it, to become extremely IT..
ritablc. OF course these facts rep
resent extreme cases, but they give
as idea Of the Importance of phvcho-
logical color values. In crcating
.,heerfulness the warm colors ave in
Glspcnsable. But the use OF cool
coiors is equally. important in soft
ming the tone Of a room and Civ
ing it a resttul atmosphere.

examined Electrolux carefully and
became enthusiastic.
Mr.. Victor C. Farrar of Farrar &
Watmough, for instance, an architect
of over twenty years standing who has
designed some of New York's noted
buildings, has this to say:
"Electrolux, a comparative new
conner in the field, is the most inter
esting and remarkable development Of
all. The substitution of silent little
gas flame for all other operating mech
anism is great achievement. From
the building owners standpoint, it
means greater length of life and free
dom from service. From the woman's
standpoint it means simpliGed, de-
pendable, trouble-frce operation, at a
lower cost than ever before"

all this at the lowest cost in history.
For six years it was tested, improved
and refined; tried out under practical
operating conditions. 1t was investi-
gated thoroughly by scientists, engi-
neers, refrigerating men. 1t was tested
for months by nationally known au-

opinion of Mr.. J. Irving Walsh. His
firm, J. Irving Walsh, Inc, develops
better-class apartment properties in
the fashionable Washington Square
and lower Fifth Avenue section of
New York. He says:
every successful builder in the
apartment house field tries to use
equipment that will best provide for
the comfort and happiness of tenants,
and at the same time keep down
future maintenance costs. Electrolux,
the Gas Refrigerator, meets this quail
fcation. I have had a long experience
with automatic refrigeration, but [
like Electrolux and use it because l
find it is absolutely noiseless, and in
the kitchen you can not only depend
upon it to operate perfectly, but at
far lower cost than any other refriger-
ating system"
That is the story of Electrolux.
Only one thing remains - you must
see this Gas Refrigerator. Call at the
nearest display room. Look at the
interesting models and wide range of
sizes, in white or two beautiful color
combinations. Prices range from $3.50
to $50, completely installed in your
home. Purchase terms are liberal and
the operating cost is remarkably low
