Peach Ice Cream In Fruit Frame
ice cream enjoys greatest use during July and August when
the,luscious. Peach season gets underway. Fresh of flavor and delicious
by itself, this ice cream claims wonderful congeniality with other sum
mer fruits in dasaert array.
Melon and peaches are a natural in fruit cups; so trust their fruited
harmony by serving a scoop of peach ice cream in a melon half. The
famous Peach Melba dessert links a raspberry sauce to peaches and ice
cream. For a delicious variation, use sweetened raspberries to top a
peach ice cream sundae. Fresh peach slices themselves can accent the
positive of a peach ice cream serving.
. Many easy and attractive dessert combinations are possible with con
venient pre-packaged peach ice cream. One can select a favorite fruit
accompaniment when purchasing a pint or half-gallon of the ice cream.
Always economical, pre-packaged ice cream is even more of a saving
when purchased in the half-gallon carton containing 16 delicious
portions.

.—
There is something about sum
mer,—long, lazy days that bring
about a kind ot freedom and
happiness-at-being-alive that is
not as apparent at any other
time. The world is lush and
growing,—and our children grow
and change,—their eager minds,
their tanned radiant faces reach
ing a maturity which we have
not before seen.
Last year,—not very long ago,
—a little boy was content with
his world of sand pails and six-
shooters, and today, unbelievab
ly!, he is a young man. And
although we watch his new ac
complishments proudly, it tears
at a mother’s heart, just-a-little,
to realize he’s really quite
grown-up!
You have heard me stress the
importance of having his portrait
made in these changing years,—
these are your MEMORIES. So
few things become more valu
able with time, yet a fine lasting
portrait is a small investment
for the priceless pleasure it can
bring in years to come! It is a
way of stopping Time,—of turn
ing back, the clock.
Realizing this, and the fact
that parents would like portraits
of their children at different pe
riods of their growing-up-stages.
Bill makes a wonderful ALBUM,
of every one of the twelve „or
more poses of each Tot who vis
its us, and this we give you to
keep, with your order. Think
of-it,—at least thirteen picture*
for only fifteen dollars!
Of course, you may take care
of your order in extended pay
ments, should you wish, while
enjoying your portraits
So, we hope very much that
while it’s warm and sunny, and
while your child is at his hap
piest, you’ll visit us, too, some
Tuesday.—because it’s TOTS!-
DAY!
Be seeing you,
Ame
