An Eastern 
City 
Ordered three FRIGID Automatic Safety 
Control Lowering and Raising 
Devices at one time. 
A middle Western City also ordered 
three FRIGID Lowering De vices. Then 
a Chicago Cemetery has ordered three FRIGID 
machines. We will tell you the names of those 
Cemeteries and the name of the Superintendent if you 
will write us. These orders are recent. 
We can tell you of a large number of 
other Cemeteries who have ordered 
their second machine, and their third machine. 
Then we can give you the names of a great many 
undertakers who are pleased with their machines, and who 
express their pleasure and their delight with the safety, 
the beauty, and the service that the FRIGID Automatic 
giv«s them. 
The FRIGID is a Beauty 
In design, as well as strength and safety and 
service, the FRIGID device is 
very well balanced. 
It is smart looking, has grace and 
beauty in appearance — it is like a beau- 
tiful rail about the grave; in itself it is a decoration. 
It is admittedly the class of Lowering Devices, 
praised for its good looks, for its safety and its service. 
Burial Services Particularly Beautiful 
The FRIGID Automatic fits into the 
ritual. At the moment the speaker con- 
signs the body to earth, you touch with your foot 
the lever that controls the Device, and then as 'if 
responsive to the speaker’s words, the casket slowly and 
safely descends to its last resting place. You have given to 
the loved ones what will ever be a memory — a beautiful 
committal service. These splendid features of the FRIGID 
Automatic are appreciated by the most intelligent Cemetery 
Superintendents and undertakers in the United States, and 
you too, will feel grateful for such service. 
Safety first, with a strikingly beautiful burial service, and 
a handsome machine.
