ICE
V
YOU get as much ice from our "jitney stations"
for 5c as is sold from the wagons for 10c.
This is a saving a 50 per.cent. In these days, high
cost of living days, such a big saving is worth con
sidering. In a season the amount saved is quite an
item.
It is your patriotic duty to help Uncle Sam win
the war. This you do when you go to an Alspure Ice
Store and take your ice with you. Every piece of ice
you take home reduces the work of our delivery force
which enables us to distribute ice with a minimum
equipment, thus releasing men for war purposes.
Alspure Ice Stations are located as follows:
3rd & Delaware Sts.
3rd & Boas (Rear)
sth & Woodbine Sts.
6th & Hamilton Sts.
