The large ice companies maintain training schools for horses to enter delivery service. The time required for graduation is from two or three months, depending upon the mentality of the horse. The animals serve a short apprenticeship on "short beats," where traffic Is light.

Later they are put on regular routes. "We take care of our horses as if they were delicate babes," an official declared.

"If 6om'e folks couldn't let off a little steam by grumbling a bit, they'd be in poor shape when the hot weather finished," says Miss Flossie. Drug 6tores report folks are eating more Ice cream and drinking more "drinks" this summer than at any time in heir history.

A horse trained for ice wagon service knows his route. That's more than can be said of a bright and shining motor car, for all its speed. When an ice wagon driver whistles to his team, the self-starting horses don't need to have a clutch thrown in to move them on their way.
