A Warm weather necessity la a practical refrigerator. All refrigerators
are very much alike in capnhlty to hold food anti ice but in their ice anvlnsr
capacity and preserving food there is a vast difference. The White Moun-
taln and Gibson line of Refrigerators are famous the world over as the
very best fobd preservers and they only use about two thirds us much ice
as their closest competitor, Therefore this is the kind to buy.
