MANY WONDERS TO BE FEATURE OF* EXHIBIT Snow actually produced i n searing flame Is one of the fasci nating feats that will be perform ed in the Frigidaire exhibit at the 1940 New York World's Pair. This "stunt," and others, will be pre sented for the entertainment of thousands of visitors expected to attend the company's exhibit in the General Motors building. Another scientific contradic tion of a popularly accepted fact will be the elimination of fire in the operation of a steam engine. A miniature steam engine will be operated with a liquid that re quires no fire or heat. Instead, the engine will be frosted and the temperature of the boiler will be 22 degrees below zero, Fahren heit. As still another phase of this same demonstration, in what is obviously a reversal of generally accepted'ideas, water will be boil ed and frozen at the same time without using fire or a refrigera tor. During this performance a vegetable will be placed in boiling liquid where it will be frozen. Carrying these scientific feats into a demonstration more plain ly associated with refrigeration, a glass refrigerating system will be used to draw an analogy be tween the solidification of molten metal and the freezing of ice. A small refrigeration system will be used in conjunction with this demonstration to illustrate how water is changed to ice. "Tell me, papa, what is a con sulting physician?" "He is a doctor who is called in at the last minute to share the blame." Not Always Skjold—Fighting is all right providing you do it intelligently.
