This an extra man's work by eliminating outside ice supply does Maintains cold storage temperatures without ice-- without attention ME: merchants, grocers, restaurant owners-- those whose business depends on good refrig- eration--say they never realized how much time and labor it took to keep their refrigerator cold before they installed Frigidaire. They say that Frigidaire 1s actually equal to an extra man. Frig- idaire not only keeps perishable foods in perfect condition until they are sold, but its operating cost is actually less than the cost of ice. Find out what Frigidaire will do for you.

Gordon H. Rodgers says he has demonstrated that north shore house- wives are appreciative of his efforts to supply them with really and truly "fresh eggs," and so rapid has the increase in this demand been since opening his market in a small way last July, that he has been compelled to seek the larger and most modern quarters which he now occupies. Here he has a large automatically controlled refrigeration plant where the eggs and butter and also the dressed poultry, during the short time they are in his plant, are insured the proper temperature necessary to maintain the fresh condition in which he receives them. He receives a shipment of eggs every day directly from large state supervised poultry farms in Southern Wisconsin and the butter is shipped directly from the larger creameries, every other day. His poultry he receives directly from the poultry farms, and in his new plant, which will be completed in a few days, will be provided five hun- dred feet of floor space in deck feed- ing crates where the fowls will be kept ten days on a milk fattening diet before they are dressed for the mar- ket. Mr. Rodgers says his motto from the very beginning has been, "Quality First," and on this he has built the large trade which he now enjoys. This service, he says, he is able to give at substantially the same price as that charged at other stores. He serves Wilmette, Kenilworth, Winnetka and Glencoe, making de- liveries of eggs and butter three times a week with special delivery of poultry on any day. Group Rides Now Popular Pastime . - Y for Riding Club The Indian Hill Riding club an- nounces a series of group rides on Saturday afternoons in April and May leaving the club stables at 2:30. The following hostesses consented to serve tea in the tea room at the stables at 4:30 when the riders return: April 16--Mrs. Donald" McPherson; April 23--Mrs. Godfrey Atkin; April 30--Mrs. Ernest Ballard; May 7--Mrs. Tas. Prindiville; May 14--Mrs. Walter Wallace; May 21--Mrs. Hobart Young; May 28--Mrs. Peirce C. Ward. Last Saturday a large field of riders led by Ernest Hicks, president of the club, and Walter Wallace, chairman of the bridle paths' committee, rode through the Forest Preserve, inspected Mr. Elme's stables and had tea at the Glenview Golf club. Among the riders were Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Ballard, Mr. and Mrs. Francis Butler, Mr. and Mrs. Wilson Reid, Mrs. Donald McPherson and daughter, Miss Inez McKeoun, and Messrs. Donald Dallas, Hobart Young, Victor Elting, Godfrey Atkin, Harry Miller, Peirce Ward and Martin Lind- sey. Among those who motored over Response Generous as Workers Canvass for White Elephants (Contributed) The White Elephant sale to be con- ducted by members of the Winnetka Congregational church, May 4 and 5, according to Mrs. Daniel Lasier, is the best panacea she knows for that "tired feeling," that so many people are apt to experience in the spring. As to the success of the undertaking financially, she is exceedingly optimis- tic, basing her attitude upon the re- sponse to her "every member canvass" for articles for the gift table. Thus far it has been a one hundred percent response. The friendly rivalry existing be- tween the "Stitch in Time" and the "Cash and Carry" clubs add much zest and enthusiasm over the church building program among the members, it is said. Both clubs will have stands near the elephant's trunk at the sale. Members of the "Stitch in Time" club --who now have $500 in bonds in the treasury--contend that they intend to build the steeple on the church. Contributions are being sent in regularly to the White Elephant sale headquarters at the Community House. An awning swing for the lawn that is almost new; a dining room table, davenport, book-cases, brass and iron beds in splendid condi- tion, a hall-tree, a large mission bui- fet, and a baby buggy are among the many things that have been sent in and will be placed on sale. Children's toys, musical intsruments and good clothing, hats and shoes are also promised. Members of the church who are anxious to make the sale an outstanding event are urged by the committee in charge to send in their contributions at once. The workers are beginning to sort and it will help them considerably to have all contri- butions on hand early. Anyone not having a means of sending things to Community House may phone Win- netka 538 and arrangements will be made to take care of them. Marriage or a career? That is the problem that confronts the young heroine in "The Detour," the Owen Davis play to be produced here soon by the North Shore Theater Guild. Tts novel solution holds vital interest for the modern young women and their I mothers. Mrs. Carl Keith, 310 Warwick road, Kenilworth, with her daughters, Har- riett and Jean, spent the first part of the week in Peoria visiting her daugh- ter, Mrs. Cleon Larsen. Mr. and Mrs. Larsen are expecting to spend this week-end with Mrs. Keith. Op Mr. and Mrs. C. G. Littell, 322 Woodstock avenue, and their daugh- ter, Jane, left Kenilworth last Friday to spend two weeks in Virginia Hot Springs. and joined the equestrians at tea were Mrs. Hobart Young, Mr. and Mrs. James Prindiville, Mrs. Godfrey At- kin and Mrs. W. A. Shaw. The interest m riding this year is keener than ever, it is said. The Rid- ing club members are making the most of the unusual opportunity af- forded them through the bridle paths which radiate westward from Win- netka putting them in close touch with the miles of similar paths that have been laid out through the Forest Pre- serve. Last week's ride covered twelve miles. Those planned for the coming Saturdays will be shorter. id
