We are now so used to thinking of electricity as the means of cool-· ing the refrigerator, that when any other form of energy is spoken of as a means of getting this result, we look upon it as being mysterious. In~-ariably when using electricity as a refrigerating force, we find that there are a multitude of mov..: · ing members, and we then get vibr~tion, and its attendant · noises. In using heat as energy in refrigerating, we get no noise; the engine so to speak is entirely done away with, so no friction, vibration, or the necessity of an oiling system. · r e .f rig e r ·a te s ICE-0-LATOR through the direct application of heat, and due to the fact that it is a true absorber, we can use the most efficient refrigerant known. The amount of energy required in ICE-0-LATOR is very small;. it will deliver to you the equivalent of one hundred pounds of ice for the cost of labor of the ice man carrying the ice from the wagon to your refrigerator. Thoroughly, and dependably automatic, noiseless, highly efficient, this newer type of Domestic Ice Machine is adaptable to all and any refrigerator, or, sold as a complete unit, will fill the bill, and do the· job just as you have always hoped you could have it done. ICE-0-LATOR is not new in either principle or its first birthday. The WINCHESTER ARMS CORP. developed it several years ago; it is new in the west, but has a fine record for service in some of the eastern cities. ~rhe ICE-0-LATOR is on exhibit at the Direct Sales Company, ml Main Street, Wilmette.
