Dr. Mann, as is known by all the children who have eagerly been await ing word from him, is the director of the Zoo, and the scientist who headed the Smithsonian-Chrysler expedition that went to Africa to invite owr gi- raffe to come to Washington, and he was one of the two men who actually succeeded in getting the giraffe’s con- sent. g “I am very much interested in the giraffe-naming contest and would like “Billy Mann" Is Suggested as Giraffe's Name as Tribute to Animal’s Captor @ Billy, Mann. | The Star wants all the childrer around here to offer their suggestions for a mame, and when the final choice is_made, this name will be placed om a bronze plate at the giraffe’s home in the Zoo, together with the name of the boy or girl who proposed it, who also will be given a suitable mement: of the occaslon by The Sta So hurry up, boys and vour suggestions for a na e | the giraffe sacretary at The Star. member, vou may send in names, giving your reason for p eacl v one, of course, if vou prefer. ‘The main thing. after all, is that our giraffe simply must have s name.

And now they have designed a miniature refinement of their time- tested product so that you may have in your own kitchen the same sanitary, economical and efficient system-of refrigeration that has been enjoyed for years by Cornelius Vanderbilt, Vincent Astor, Henry Ford, Seth Thomas, Harry Payne Whitney, Cyrus H. K. Curtis, the former Mrs.H. E. Dodge, Philip K.Wrigleyand scores of other particular people. This answers every question —and settles every doubt Twenty-five years of ““ Knowing How” enable Rice Engineers to assure you of these important and unique features in every Rice Refrigerator. Remember they represent the result of years of actual experience with electric cooling under all sorts of working conditions. They answer every question and settle every doubt. RICE REFRIGERATION IS THE MOST SCIENTIFICALLY EFFICIENT. Food chambers are constantly maintained at exactly the right temperature to keep things at their freshest. RICE REFRIGERATION IS PRACTICALLY TROUBLE PROOF. It is the simplest of all sys- tems in design and construction. Needs no attention on your part and very rarely requires service. RICE REFRIGERATION COSTS LITTLE TO RUN. It is far less expensive than messy, wasteful ice. RICE REFRIGERATORS COST LITTLE TO BUY. They are among the lowest priced reputable apparatus. RICE REFRIGERATION MAKES ICE QUICKER. Ice cubes are frozen in Rice’ Refrigerator ice trays in less time than in any other electric cooling unit. RICE REFRIGERATORS LAST A LIFETIME. The Rice freezing unit is built like your steam radiators—strong—evetlasting—good for a life-time of service. o Before you buy any Refrigerator check up these facts fof yourself Write or telephone us and we will tell you where Rice Refrigerators are being demonstrated in your vicinity.
