Friends kept bragging about their
Cooieratnrt. They talked of 1m cube*
in in mi nows; freedom from covered
dlsber, fresher, better tawing foods.
So John said, “If this is all true, e»
certainly want s Coolers tor Let’s try
ooe mn deyt free in our own kitchen."
Well, every word Was true! Now I
know what air conditioning meant.
The foods stay fresh and palamble
without the bother of covered disbee.

or rapid drying out—I have ke cube*
