POLAR BUILDS GARAGE FOR TRIM FLEET Ice and Fuel Company Has Greatly Increased Business. Probably the largest private arage under one roof in Indianpolis recently has been completed by the Polar Ice and Fuel Company. Increasing number of trucks useS by the company to supply Ice and coal to outlying districts made larger facilties necessary to house this equipment properly. But this does not mean that good old “Dobbin” has been replaced. As matter of fact, the company now owns and unses, including Kate and Queen, 103 head of horses and mules. Many of these faithful and intelligent animals know the location of the company’s customers on the respective routes almost as well as do the drivers. Cubes Prove Popular Polar ice cubes, delivered in white parafined boxes, are becoming more and more popular as the difference in quality between the white opaque cubes and Polar cubes becomes more generally known. For more than thirty years the company has followed a policy’ of quality in all its products. In the coal department, results of this policy have been particularly gratifying. The last year closed by far the largest in point sales the company ever has experienced. This applies as well to its ice sales, which in spite of only a moderate temperature last summer, was the largest in the company’s history. Builds Own Refrigerators Several years ago the company recognized the necessity of furnishing a better refrigerator at a moderate price. A salesroom was opened at the Northwestern avenue branch. Refrigerators built under the company’s own specifications are furnished at practically factory cost, plus a small handling charge, as an additional service to ice customers. The Polar company owns and operates plants in three other Indiana cities and has more than fifty branch stations in Indianapolis and surrounding communities.
