We, too, say that the 1886 Kelvinator is
fine refrigerator for anyone to own. We like
the way the company has answered the
questions that wise buyers questions
about temperatures in the food compart-
ment, questions about operating costs, and
questions about long years of service. Kel-
vinator has answered them definitely and
efnPhatically.
1t has answered with Visible COld-for
the new Kelvinator not only keeps temPera-
lures always ideal-but Built-In Their
mometer 5botVs yoa that your food is being
kept surely safely, dependably cold.
1t has answered with Visible Economy
for not only does the new Kelvinator use
one-half to one-third the current consumed
by many refrigerators now in use-but
Certificate of Low Cost of Operation Sbo~s
yoE, in advance, that current consumption
will be amazingly low.
1t has answered with Visible Protection
for Swear Protection Plan gives you
signed assurance of long years of service.
And the 1886 Kelvinator is beautiful
refrigerator designed with the aid of Count
Alexis de Sakhnofsky.
Furthermore, it has dozens of convent
ences to Tighten the work of preparing
meals-such as flexible rubber grids in al
ice trays, automatic defrosting switch, vege-
table crisper and many others.
So come in and see the 1886 Kelvinator.
1t will pay for itself and the terms are so
easythatitjust seems foolish not to ownone.
To those who have old-fashioned auto
matte re6igerators, we suggest that you
compare Kelvinator's operating cost with
that of yours. The difference alone may pay
for new 1886 Kelvinator.

Rome, Feb. 7.--tUP)AFrequent use of the names "Al Smith," "Mr. Jones" and "Mr. White" by visiting Americans brought . friendly tip from plain clothes men today that it would be much better to say "Mussolini."

He took off at $40 D, m. yesterday. En route the storm reached the plane, cncircling 1t with swirling, powdery snow ana sleet. over the Charleston airport. Cam was advised by radio that landing was impossible and that the storm was worse north. Hc cir cled and raced back to Jacksonville, the wind heaving and pulling at ms plane. When he arrived, Q landing was impossible there.
 Radio Quit Work
 At this point, Cann's radio ceased to function. While Eastern Ar Line officials vlsualized a forced landing at sea, he was fighting the storm across the toe of the Florida peninsula. In all Cam kept ms plane up Six hours and during the last two hours he was out of touch with the grounds. Where were times when actually didn't know where I was," he said. That was after lost the radio directional beam. That light house looked good to me-" Cam received warm praise from his superiors.
