GENERAL

Refrigerator
The modern homemaker who has a
General Electric Refrigerator lias found
to her surprise that it’s just as easy to
make a luscious mousse as it used to
be to make an uninteresting rice pud­
ding! She finds that an aspic is a wel­
come change from soup— and less fuss
to prepare.
In a word, the drudgery o f planning
menus is now spiced with the thrill of
developing new surprises. Left-overs
come back to the table in unsuspected
disguises. And even ordinary salads
and fruits become crisper, better-
flavored when they are thoroughly
chilled.
As for the refrigerator itself— it is quiet,
absolutely sanirary, easy to keep clean
(the up-on-legs models make it so
simple to mop the floor underneath).
A ll its mechanism is safely enclosed
in one hermetically scaled steel casing.
You should study the various models
— from a point o f view o f their revo­
lutionary design as well as the conven­
iences they have to offer you.
Time paymenti may be arranged i f detired.
A b a special introductory offer, we will Install the General Electric
Itefrlgerator of your choice, for only $10 down; the balance may be paid
in a year and a half.
