Close the door—if you can pull out easily, the gasket needs r.elacing. Keep the gasket clean. Oil and greas—even finger persnir• ation—damages it. Washing it fre- quently with mild soap and water will prolong its 'life. 2. Keo the door shut as much as possible—never get it stand open. Plan 'take-outs" and "put-aways" so that you won't have to open the door any more than necessary. 3. Allow foods to cool before 'placing them in the refrigerator.

Always cover all cooked foods before you put them in the refrig- erator. This helps keep the refriger- ator from needing defrosting fre- quently and saves the mechanism from overworking. (It saves vita- riliriS, too.) 5. Defrost when the ice on the freezing unit gats iA inch , thick. Heavy frost reduces the circulation of cold air: 6. Keep temperature control set at normal, except when quick freez- ing .(e.g., making ice cream). As soon as possible after quick freezing, set back the control to normal. '7. Pont' overload the refrigerator. Leave room around foods to let the cold air circulate. Overloading, .snecially in hot weather, is a fre- eent cause of breakdowns. Card of Thanks Mrs. E.
