PROTECTION
Uniform cool protection for perishable foodstuffs!
Melting ice maintains constant, food-freshening hu-
midity—no danger of “drying out” that makes food
lose its distinctive flavor. No danger of mixed fla-
vors, either!
Ice is made from clear, filtered water!

Observe 52nd Anniversary.
Sunday, June 4, marked the fif-
ty-second wedding anniversary of
Mr. and Mrs. T. C;’Brimer of Wes
ton. The observance was a quiet
one due to Mrs. Brimer being a
patient in the city-county hospit-
al at McKinney, suffering from a
fractured hip sustained in a fall.
Mrs. Brimer was born January
27, 1874, at Tyron, Tenn., as Flor-
ence Lemons, daughter of the late
Mr. and Mrs. John Lemons. She
has two sisters. Mr. Brimer was
born Sept. 12, 1874, at Dandridge,
Tenn., son of Mr. and Mrs. John
Brimer. He has two brothers and
a sister living in Tennessee.
Mr. and Mrs. Brimer were mar-
ried at Tyron on June 4, 1898 and
came to Texas on March 2, 1899.
They settled at Lancaster, where
they lived six years. When they
arrived at Lancaster they had on-
ly ten cents each. Mr. Brimer got
a job as a day laborer on a farm,
his pay being 75 cents a day, out
