It has atswered with' Visible Economylot not only does the new Kel-vinator use one-half to one-third the current but a Certificate Low Cost of Operation shows you, in advance, that current consumption will be amazingly low.

It has answered with Visible Vrottc- tionlot a 5-year Protection Plan gives you signed assurance of long years of service. And the 1936 Kelvinator is a beautiful refrigerator designed with the aid of Count Alexis de SakhnofTsky. Furthermore, it has dozens of conveniences to lighten the work of preparing meals such as flexible rubber rids in all ice trays, automatic defrosting switch, vegetable crisper, and many others. To those who have old-fashioned automatic refrigerators, we suggest that you compare Kelvinator's operating cost with that of yours. Quite possibly the difference alone would pay for the new 1936 Kelvinator.
