Norge has been famous for "firsts” in re-
frigeration since the introduction of the
revolutionary Rollator cold-making unit
back in 1926. Now comes one of the greatest
improvements of all — the Night-Watch
automatic defroster.
Every night at midnight, the Night-Watch
completely defrosts the Norge and keeps the
freezer at top cooling capacity all day every
day. And it’s fully automatic . . no buttons
to push, no food to re-arrange, no big trayful
of water to “juggle."
Only NORGE has the inbuilt fea-
tures necessary for such perfected automatic
defrosting . . . the exclusive Sealed Freezer,
Covered Coldpack meat drawer, the Hande-
froster receptacle. Come in . . . see these
and other great features that make Norgt
such a big value at today's low prices.
Pens and an auction anna in
which cattlemen of tin- Taft re-
gion can meet one day a week
and auction their livestock will
bo built soon, according to plans
made at a meeting of the board
of directors of the Taft Chhpiber
of Commerce last week.
Construction is expected V to
begin on the project in the next
few days.
