“FRIGIDAIRE” OBSERVES
FIFTEENTH BIRTHDAY
A fifteenth anniversary jubilee,
marking the brief span of years dur-
ing which the electric refrigeration
industry has grown from a swaddled |
infant to one of the most active and
robust members of America's big
business family, was formally open-
ed on July 6 by E. G. Biechler, pres-
ident and general manager of Frig-
idaire Corporation.
Participation of the public as well
as the vast Frigidaire family in the
United States is included in the
program, the announcement stated,
and events have been arranged for
every day and evening of {his week,
save Sundays during July and Au-
gust. Mr. Biechler issued a general
invitation to the public to be guests
of this General Motors subsidiary at
any Frigidaire showroom during the
event.
“Fifteen years ago,” Mr. Biechlef
said in opening the jubilee, “there
were few electric refrigerators in use
and these only in the homes of the
wealthy. Today there are more
than 3,000,000 in service and factories
are working overtime to supply a
rapidly increasing demand. This
household appliance is no longer in
the luxury class. It is economical
to own and to operate and provides
a range of household service un-
dreamed of fifteen years ago.
“Frigidaire has been the outstand-
ing pioneer in bringing the electric
refrigerator from the ‘expensive ice
box’ class to the economical home
servant it is today. Through a pol-
icy of progressive engineering, this
company has perfected refinements
and improvements that have made
the home electric refrigerator more
serviceable, economical and efficient.
Through large scale production meth-
ods and by purchasing materials in
large quantities Frigidaire has
brought the electric refrigerator with-
in reach of practically
can home.” + .
“A comparison of prices of elec-
tric refrigerators of fifteen years ago
and today tells a big part of the
story of achievement. The lowest
priced Frigidaire of years ago cost
more than four times as much as the
lowest priced model today, despite
the fact that at that time the cost
of materials and labor was much
lower.
“The fifteenth anniversary jubilee
also will mark the period of greatest
progress in food preservation in the
history of the world. Not only in
the food industry has this been true,
but, what is more important, in the
home.
realizes the vital necessity for prop-
erly safeguarding the family food
supply. The development of the
electric refrigerator and the tremen-
dous amount of food preservation
educational activity that accompanied
it played an important part in this.”
During these anniversary weeks
special displays have been arranged
at local “Frigidaire” stores. If you
are interested you can see them at
the West Penn Power store and the
R. C. Witmer store in Bellefonte, as
well as at the Keifer Hardware Co.,
at State College.
———Miss Sarah E. Benner cele-
brated the 97th anniversary of her
birth, at her home on High street,
last Friday. She is a grand-daugh-
ter of Gen. Philip Benner, of Revo-
lutionary fame and one of the early
iron masters, in Centre county, and
is the oldest living native of Belle-
fonte today, living in the house in
which she was born and has spent
her entire life. Notwithstanding the
fact that she is within three years
of the century mark she still enjoys
remarkably good health and is quite
active physically, her only handicap
being impaired vision. She is pos-
sessed of a remarkable memory and
with a mind as clear as ever she
can discuss in a most interesting
manner incidents and happenings
which came under her observafion
during the many years of her life.
In fact her ability to recall days
and dates with historical accuracy
is almost marvelous. Miss Benner
had many callers during the day and
was showered with gifts and flowers,
as well as messages of congratula-
tion.

of Dr. Edward Goodrich Acheson,
‘at his Park Avenue home, New
York city, on Monday, following a
week's illness with pneumonia. He
‘was 75 years old and a native of

Edison, at Menlo Park, N. J, and
assisted the great inventor in pro-
ducing the graphite film used in
electric bulbs. Ten years later he
founded the Monongahela Electric
Light company. He was the inventor
of carborundum and the organizer
of the company which manufactures
it at Niagara Falls. He also dis-
covered high temperature graphite,
‘and was able to apply it to various
methods and uses.
| Following in the footsteps of their
father two of his sons, Raymond
and Edward, were educated at the
| Bellefonte Academy, and Mr Acheson
was always a staunch friend of the
institution. He is survived by his
wife, three daughters and four sons.
Burial was made in New York on
