Check up your refrigerator costs it takes very little to buy a Frigidaire ....... IIow much is your present refrigerator worth? How untch do you spend each month for ice? how much each year? Have you ever checked up to see just how much your household refrigera tion was costing you? It costs very little to own a Frigidaire and very little to buy one. Perhaps you are paying for its convenience and comfort without owning it. ' Your Summer's Ice Bill Would Pay Interest on Several Frigidaires ! "A summer's ice bill isn't apparently large because you pay it in small amounts. Add up the total costs from May to October and you have a different story. Enough to pay the interest and the principle on a Frigidaire in a surprisingly short time. You can have Frigidaire installed N0AV for as little as $35 down, balance monthly the total cost only $180 f. o. b. Dayton. The operating cost is practically nothing an average, of about SOc a month for electricity. Can you afford to be without one? Rosenbaum Electric Shop Distributors - - 'cv Foley BIdg. La Grande, Ore.
