VOTING MACHINES

A jalopy in appearance, but ac
tually a marvel of mechanical gad
gets, is Wiswell's famous Funny
Ford presentation, one of the most
amusing presentations ever fash
ioned from a “tin lizzie.”
Chases Clown
Without a driver showing, the
Ford chases the clown all over
the grounds. It stops and starts,
goes forward and into reverse in a
manner that would put the most
»ccomplished robot to shame.
Upon occasion it explodes with
noise enough to be heard above the
roar of its motor. The damage, how
ever, is slight. The Funny Ford j
could hardly stand any more actual
damage and still'manage to make
its way around.
The clown presents his routine
in a manner that has been designed j
for laughs alone, and there isn’t a
second throughout the act when j
they fail to manufacture at least
one rib-tickler.
Although the act is entirely given
over to comedy. it required real
genius to doctor the original motor
and chassis of the Ford so that it
would operate accoitding to the
clown's wishes.
Replica Displayed
A replica of the Ford and a Ford
in miniature can be seen at Shrine
Headquarters at 2nd and Noble St.
Carl Niemeyer, circus chairman for
the Shrine and Everett Mauger, in
charge of publicity and tickets
stated “people of Fairbanks have
been watching spectacular shows on
television all winter long. The
Shrine Circus will not take a back
seat for any circus.
All of the family will enjoy this
international circus. Tickets are be
ing sold at headquarters on the
corner of 2nd and Noble.
There are over 20 acts that will
keep Fairbanks audiences spell
bound: clowns, elephants, seals,
horses, dog acts as well as aerialists.

What’s so different about the tomato?
It’s just about the only thing in the
kitchen garden that still needs to be
canned with the old-fashioned hot pack,
cold pack drudgery. Most other fruits
and vegetables can be put up by easy
pack—simply washed and frozen. An elec
tric freezer will keep summer freshness
and flavor on your table the year ’round.
An electric freezer means economy (stock
■ ' \fp' wh'eh things are in season) . . . con
venience (less trips to the store) . . . variety
(ice cream and other treats can be served
anytime).
See your appliance dealer
soon. Put up the modern,
electric freezer way. ✓
