PLANNING

menus, marketing, entertaining-all of these are vastly simplified for the home-maker when she has a General Electric Refrigerator.

And, even more important, is the pleasant feeling of security-the absolute knowledge that her family food is always safely fresh and wholesome. Even in winter scientifically correct refrigeration is vital. Kitchens are warm all year round, and food to be safe to eat needs to be kept at a tem

perature below 50 degrees always. Above this point bacteria flourish.

The General Electric Refrigerator is different from all others-it is indeed "years ahead" in design. It is entirely automatic. It never even needs oiling. All its mechanism is enclosed in an air-tight steel casing, up on top-forever safe from dust and difficulties. It uses little current and makes plenty of ice cubes. For complete specifications, just write us for Booklet B-10.

And the very check he vrites suggests the type of pank on which it is drawn -and creates a quick im-Dression that is important.

IS YOUR CHECK

A BUSINESS REFERENCE
IN ITSELF ?

Checks made on National Safety Paper have a decided look of being associated with a modern, progressive, well managed bank. The sort of bank hat draws its clientele from the first string business men of a community.

Distinctive, dignified, substantial. A clean, easy writing surface-durable exture. And safe-protected on both sides against mechanical and chemical erasures. Two thirds of the banks in the leading metropolitan centers are already using National Safety Paper. Your lithographer, printer or stationer can supply you promptly-in any amount, any color.

WE ARE ONE

by
Rosa Ponselle

T the close of one of my first singing lessons, my dear
old maestro said to me, “Remember always to choose
your accompaniment with care. Next to your own voice,
it can be the greatest factor in your success."

At the time I was puzzled. What had a piano to do with my success? But as the years passed, I learned the truth of my maestro's words. I sang with many pianos. But in all of them there was something lacking-call it sympathy of tone, or rinship of spirit. Until shortly after I joined the Metropolitan Opera Company, I found what I was seeking. And the discovery was one of the happiest experiences of my life.

I set out to find a practice piano. I tried many makes. In the course of my rounds, I seated myself at a Knabe. I had not played a dozen notes before I realized that here was piano tone different from any I had ver heard before. Its liquid eloquence seemed to reach the innermost recesses of my heart. I was strangely elated. Before I knew it I was singing. Yet, as I sang and played, only one voice rose from the piano. The voice of the Knabe melted into my own. We were one—the Knabe and I. We have remained one. Wherever I sing at home, on the Metropolitan stage, on the concert platform-the Knabe sings with me. Always ts golden voice is an inspiration, urging me to do a little better than ny best. And always it seems to sense the mood of my song, and to express that emotion in harmony with me.

So when young singers come to me, I repeat the advice of my old naestro. Only now I add words of wisdom unknown to him. I tell these Joung students not only the importance of accompaniment to a singer -I tell them the name of the ideal piano for the singer-the Knabe.

The Snabe piano

Official piano of the Metropolitan Opera Company

You have only to hear the Knabe to know why Rosa Ponselle has made this piano her own. And why it is the choice of Maria Jeritza, of Martinelli, Kappell, Scotti, Ruffo, and many others. Why it is the official piano of the Metropolitan Opera Company. Why it is the instrument of Rosenthal's art, and of Orloff's.

For instantly, you will sense the humanly sympathetic quality that distinguishes the Knabe from all other pianos. Tone of appealing sweetness, of haunting beauty. Tone that echoes every emotion of your heart. Tone such as you seek in your piano.

The Knabe may be purchased on extremely attractive terms: 10% down,years to pay the balance. Prices from $875 to $2,500. Period models from $1,500.
