You can have a cold refrigerator without giving a moment's thought to bothersome ice. Just install Kelvinator Electric: Refrigeration and it will keep itself cold. Kelvinator keeps refrigerators colder than ice does, and keeps foods longer. Kelvinator freezes cubes of ice for table use. It relieves the user of every incon- venience connected with refrigeration and is economical. Calk or phone for complete information.
