A cake of ice so huge that a whole city could seek relief from the
heat in its cool, benign shadow, would, indeed, be hailed as a mighty
bestower of public well-being.
Yet every day during the torrid hours when ice is so indispen
sable, the aggregate cubic volume of PURE—SAFE Ice delivered by
our punctual, courteous deliverymen to every quarter of the city,
would approximate a towering block of ice relatively as immense as
the one in our illustration.
An ice manufacturing company stands committed to responsibil
ity in the health of the community it serves and it is a very comforting
thought to our many thousands of customers to know that every
pound of ice we put in their refrigerators is PURE ICE—SAFE ICE.
No element of impurity lurks in the piece of Atlantic ice that'
clinks cheerily in your glass of iced tea—no danger ever threatens,
from the cool depths of the glass of Atlantic ice-chilled water you
give your little one, for Atlantic ice is absolutely PURE ICE—SAFE
ICE.
How Atlantic Ice Turned Georgia’s
Greatest Peach Crop Into Gold
' Foreseeing the inevitable vast increase in the production of
Georgia’s famous peaches and keenly alive to her loss unless huge
quantities of ice were made unfailingly available during every hour
of the intensively active peach-shipping season, we invested great
suras in erecting and equipping, for vastly increased production, at a
time when other concerns were retrenching and slacking up their cus
tomary forward strides.
Result: when the greatest peach crop in Georgia’* history was
ready for shipment WE WERE READY—-ready to ice up to 600 cars
per day during the peach season.
Six miles of cars of peaches iced per day with ice made exclusive
ly in the plants of the Atlantic Ice & Coal Corporation is a commer-i
cial feat unparalleled in the United States. During one 11-day period,
at the height of the season, we supplied 76,000 tons of ice, the peak!
day’s defnsmd reaching the staggering figure of 8,500 tons. Every
car of the season's 9,000 to 9,500 cart moving on express schedule*
Georgia’s mammoth peach crop went forward to profitable markets
that sent back over Ten Million Dollars to Georgia peach growers—
money that meant financial resuscitation to many communities—all
effected by foresight and our steadfast application to the civic-inspired
duty of fostering Georgia’s resources and our readiness to serve the
progressive spirit of our communities to the limit of our abilities.
