A LASTING GIH AT KREBS STORE The ideal, long lasting Christmas gift is a Christmas Frigidaire, ac cording to Adolph Krebs, of the Geo. Krebs' Sons furniture store, Third and Court streets, dealer here for Frigidaire electric refrigerators. "Thousands of persons are selecting Frigidaires as permanent, lifetime gifts," he said, "giving to mother and the entire family something that will be remembered and. in daily use for years. "An electric refrigerator is more than just a remembrance—a postcard is that much. A Frigidaire in a home does something few other presents can—pays for itself in the savings it makes possible by lowering of food wastage and by permitting quantity buying at bargain prices. "In order that a Frigidaire installed as a Christmas gift may be distinct ive from Frigidaires purchased at other seasons, we are affixing silver medallions on, which it is stated 'Christmas greetings to Mother* or to the recipient by name. "A size for every type of family and every gift budget, we have on display large and small Frigidaires, every one of which is a genuine prod uct of General Motors."
