not things of the past. Junked or aban­
doned freezers are still dangerous even if
they will "just sit in the garage a few days "
If you are getting rid of your old freezer,
do it safely. Please read the enclosed
safety booklet from the Association ot
Home Appliance Manufacturers Help pre­
vent accidents
