I M.i.i 111 M iinm .BR D L K Elkin. N. C. ROSCOE, THE ROASTBEEF'S NARROW ESCAPE "Gosh", says Roscoe, "that was close. Here I come round and rosy from the butcher shop— and I nearly land in one of those refrigerators that surround a fellow with dry air—and suck the rich juices right out of him. I'm heading straight for a modern air-conditioned ICE refrig erator—where I'll get the treatment a fine roast like me deserves." Right you are, Roscoe. In the modern ice re frigerator, proper moisture guards all foods against rapid drying out—just as clean-washed air protects them against flavor taints. And these amazing 1940 ice refrigerators have many other advantages you ought to know about —including the fact that they cost only a third to a half as much as other types.
