' NEW SEEGER REFRIGEHATOR IS A REAL AID T0 CAFETERIA HELP The Seeger refrigerator which 'was ordered the first of the pre- sent school year has arrived and is being greatly appreciated by the cooks and students, since it -has made some major changes ln the cafeteria organization. As a result of this purchase, we obtain bottled milk from Pro- ducers' Dairy of Muncie. Here-to- fore, our cafe help had tc bottle local milk by hand. Now, the cooks have much more time to de- vote to other work. This equipment has a capacity of 20 cubic feet which is large enough to hold one day's supply of milk for both the students drinking and cooking purposes.
