SHOPPING UNDER IDEAL CONDITIONS
Modern stores in the big c.ities of the world are becoming summer resorts. by the installation of the new refrigerated system of air-conditioning, says a correspondent. Not only is the niT purifled and cooled, but it. is changed , entirely every twelve minutes. Reftigerated air-conditioning, which has been introduced into up-to-date stores 'in America, has now arrived in Sydnev. Merely by operating a switch, the human hand can control the at-mosphere. A hot, sultry summer day can be altered, if desired. to a temperature to oqu-il winter weather. The unit histalled by one big firm in Sydney has a capaeity of 280 tons of refrigeration. This is equivalent to the cooling effect of the molting of approximatelv 600.0001b. of ice over a spaco of 24 liours — a quantitv suffieient to supply quite a large town. These technicalities do not convey to the average woman reader the full advantap-es of shouuing under ideal atmosuheric conditinTi3. Tt means that '•pfrigeraf°d air pondit.ioning can now romove odours and clust from the air. This is done by a washing process that keeus the air alive and gentlv circnlat iug.
