Newcomer's Hardware Store but said building would stand on the dead end of Comfort alley and for that reason asked Council to vacate said alley. This brought out consid- erable discussion from councilmen and abutting property owners. Council figured that by opening a new alley on the north side of Mr. H. S. Newcomer's store, extend- ing west parallel with his building and intersecting with Comfort alley, which was the proposition of Mr. Newcomer, it would greatly improve conditions at the point in question. An ordinance vacating the dead end of Comfort alley, passed second reading and the Street Committee was instructed to inform those con- cerned that council is willing and ready to pass finally said ordinance as soon as arrangements are made to turn the new alley in passable condition, over to the boro. The Postoffice Chairman Murphy gave each councilman an opportunity to voice his opinion on whether or no coun- cil should make provisions to main- 3 tain its present tenant, the postof- fice, in the frame building in the park. All were of one frame of mind. We cannot, at this time, erect a new and more creditable building. Neither would it be wise to enlarge the present structure. In lieu of the fact that the U. S.

SPECIAL MEETING | MANY WORE PEOPLE DIE FROM OF BORO COUNCIL, ~~ HEATSTROKE THAN OF EXPOSURE T0 THE COLD, INSTITUTE FINDS Heating Plant Now Used to Circulate Cool Air in Homes in Summer. Summer heat is from two and a half to five times as deadly to humans as winter cold. Yet. although 7 cents of every home building dollar is spent for heating equipment, the Holland Institute of Thermology of Holland, Mich, points out that home cooling plants are rare, al- though modern sci- ence has made them entirely practical. According to the. latest figures of the United States Public Health Serv- ico, 646 persons died from heatstroke and only 246 as a result of exposure to cold in one year. In the preceding sum- mer and winter 1,355 were killed by heat and 239 by cold. The statistics do not account for the vast number of non-fatal heat prostrations. ut though the cooling of theaters. auditoriums, schools, hospitals, banks. factories, offices and other structures has become common practice, air-con- ditioning the home for comfort, health and efficiency is neglected except for heating during cold weather. This would not be the case, the Holland Institute of Thermology suggests, if the average home owner would just “take a tip” from a common experi- ence. Moving Air Has Cooling Effect. This experience occurs on hot “mug- gy” evenings when not a breath of wind is astir and there seems nothing to do but perspire and suffer. In desperation, we get into the family car, start off at about 25 miles an hour, and feel the air eddy past with a grateful coolness. Presently. the speedometer slides up to 40 miles. We stop perspiring, forget the heat. be- come comfortable. After an hour or iwo we return home, refreshed and relaxed, ready for a sound sleep. Think what this means. The air we rode through is of the same tempera- ture as that of the air we found so insufferable before we started out— or virtually so. The relative humidity is the same. too. But riding through still air at 40 miles an hour is equiv. alent to sitting in moving air with a velocity of 3,520 feet a minute. This sugeests that mere motion of the air may be used for cooling purposes. And that is exactly what science has dis covered within recent years: “Air motion makes any moderate condition feel cooler,” states the technical gnide book of the national sociéty of air-conditioning engineers. And 12 years of research at the Pitts: burgh laboratory of that organization and the United States Bureau of Mines has made it possible to calculate &x- actly what cooling effect any velocity of air motion will have in any condi tion of temperature and humidity. Equivalent to Temperature Drop. The facts are made use of in all sorts of industrial air-conditioning problems. As a matter of fact, en- gineers know four ways to cool the air in buildings. The first is to take heat directly out of air by passing it through cold water or cold brine sprays, or over cold coils, or both. The second is to reduce the humidity Hot Spells Are Hard on the Old Folks. of the air by cooling it below the dew: point, as in a dehumidifying plant. The third method is still more com- plicated. But the last is simplicity it- self. It consists merely in keeping the air moving at a given velocity. When it comes to cooling a steel mill or the-stokehold of an oceanic liner or a metal mine, only a competent engineer can decide which of these four possible methods is best in each case. But for most of us, in our homes, the choice is narrowed down by the fact that all the first three require expensive machinery. So we have to rely on air motion, Heating Plant Serves Double Duty. So it is 'ntirets logical. according to the Holland Institute of Therm: ology, for the warm air heating indus try to apply this principle to intro- of coolness during duce the comfort hot weather As a matter of fact, the leaders of this industry have con verted the heating plant, which is useful only for a part of the year into a real air-conditioning plant that improves the year round conditions in every room of the home, After all, why not? If the heating system's ob is to circulate warm air throughout the house in winter, why shouldn't it circulate eool air in sum- mer? This has been brought about by the introduction into the vaporaire heating plant of a propeller run by a small noiseless electric power unit. Of course, its first effect is to move the air through the house at a much higher velocity than the unaided force of gravity will move it. Whereas the ordinary warm air heating system. operating under winter conditions, changes the air in each room from one-and-a-half to two times an hour, the propeller system, operating in sum- mer, turns over the air from four to six times an hour. And this steady and moderately rapid motion of the air results in appreciable cooling during the summer. Tests are cited by the Holland In- stitute of Thermology to show that this occurs on all floors of the hone. Cooling Breezes Throughout House. Even a considerable distance from the grille, the cooling-effect of the air motion is distinctly noticeable. On this point, the language of the offi- cial test report is graphic: “Propeller circulation produces a well defined cooling effect which is readily recognized by bodily sensa- tions. This circulation results in cool- ing and increased comfort to the occu- pants of the house, “The velocity of discharge from floor grilles as shown by the tests way sufficient to carry a good share of the cooled air all the way to the ceiling, The Human Body as a Radiator in Summer. against which it splashed. In the case of several grilles, the spread at the ceiling was noticeable for some feet. The air from wall and baseboard grilles was carried well across the room before the velocity was dissi- pated.” Here, then, is a practical application of air motion as a cooling method for the average home. When we are en- tertaining friends on a sweltering sum- mer evening, all we need do is to turn on a switch in the kitchen and set a cooling breeze coursing through the house. No Sleepless Nights. When bedtime comes, we can be sure of getting to sleep easily and quickly, without tessing and sweating through half the night, because of the steady cooling currents that play over our beds. Grandmother and grandfather may sit in the air stream and so pass through the “hot spell” without those distressing attacks of heatstroke that make midsummer a dread period for old folks. And baby’s cradle may be placed where the wind blows over it moderately, so that the little one, too, is free from summer illnesses due to heat. And in contrast with elaborate evaporating and dehumidifying ma- chinery, this summer-cooling-winter- heating plant is inexpensive, both in operating cost and in original cost of the equipment. On the first point, the engineering tests showed that the total cost of cooling a large two-story dwelling by this method amounts to slightly less than a cent an hour. Logically, we want to know what happens to the propeller system dur ing winter. Well, one of the outstand- ing effects of the increased air ve- locity is that the house can be warmed up on cold winter mornings much more rapidly than with an ordinary heating plant. Also, air circulation throughout the dwelling is improved. Instead of one- and-a-half or two air char an hour there are from four to six when the propeller moves air through the sys tem, This produces more uniform and consequently more healthy tempera- tures in the rooms. Easier to Heat Home, Too. Higher heating efliciency and con siderable fuel economy result, for three reasons: First, no forcing of the heat er is necessary during extremely cold n weather. This practice is costly of fuel and burns out parts which are expensive to replace. Second, the temperatire of the whole system is lowered, the air leaving the grilles at an average of 160 to 170 degrees in an ordinary warm air system, but only 140 to 150 in the propeller sys tem. Third, heat loss from the heater and heat pipes into the basement is decreased by about half. And finally the propeller forces warm air to every room in the house. even those most remote from the central heating plant: it means an end to “that room that could never be kept warm.” A matrimonial expert says that a oirl’s chance to marry fade after she reaches the age of twenty-five. Rut very few of ’em ever get that old any mere. GE ——— Consistent and NOT spasmodic advertising always pays best.

Issued for free distribution to in- dividual home owners and to high schools, public libraries, home mod- Cooling Effect of Moving Air. ernizing bureaus and organizations working for community betterment, this practical guide on air motion in ventilation is part of the Institute's program “to teach the American home owner the science of healthful heat- ing through control of temperature, humidity and air motion.” Why, on a hot summer night, is it cooler to ride than merely to sit still, even though the air you ride through is just as warm and humid as that you would sit im? That is the question, based on common experi ence, which the booklet sets out to solve. Heat Generated by Food. To answer it the authors first ex- plain how the body generates heat from food. Then they set forth the physiological processes by which heat is removed from the body, showing that air motion is one of the factors that promotes two of these processes and thereby increases comfort. Tests made in Germany, in England by Dr. Leonard Hill of the University College, London, and in the United States by the U. S. Bureau of Mines, the American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers and Harvard School of Public Health are cited by the Holland Institute of Thermology to prove these basic laws. The re- sults of these tests, given in the hooklet, show that air motion lowers the pulse rate, keeps down the in- ternal body temperature, regulates Convection Relieves the Body of Heat. blood pressure, increases both the comfort and the efficiency of workers, and makes any condition likely to be encountered in the home feel more comfortable. Examples of the industrial applica- tion of the principle of air motion are presented. Then the booklet dis- cusses methods by which it can be used in the average dwelling. Use Air Motion in Mines to Better Working Conditions Air motion, which can be used for cooling the home in summer, is used successfully to improve working con- ditiens in mines, according to the Hol- land Institute of Thermology of Hol- land, Mich, Naming the U. S. Bureau of Mines as authority for the report, the Institute’s engineers cite one American mine in which the temper. ature ranged from 80 to 90 degrees. When that hot air was still, the workers developed fevers of 102 and 103 degrees. Their pulse rate in- creased rapidly. They felt weak, lost weight and soon became exhausted. Jut when the same air, of the same temperature, was kept moving through the mine at between 400 and 500 feet a minute, the miners felt no discom- fort and their temperatures and pulses remained normal. If mere air motion will accomplish this in one of “the hot industries,” the Holland Institute of Thermology points out, it will do as much for the average home during hot weather. There are two kinds of houe-heating systems, known as the *“vaporaire” and the “super-circulating” systems, equipped with electrified propellers that keep large volumes of air mov- ing through all the rooms of the home to produce a cooling effect during summer. In winter, the propeller systems In- crease heating efficiency by speeding up the circulation of warmth to all the rooms in the house. BE Marriage Licenses Ralph Eshleman, Maytown, Elsie M.
