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.

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

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

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

cooled air all the way to the ceiling,

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.”

Same Principle
Is Used to Cool
and Heat Home
Breaking new ground in applying
engineering science to the problems
of the home owner, and showing how
the principles of air conditioning em-
ployed in theaters and other large
buildings can be used to cool the
dwelling house during hot weather,
the Holland Institute of Thermology
of Holland, Mich., announces the pub-
lication of a booklet on “Air Motion
in Home Cooling and Home Heating,”
which is the Bulletin No. 2 of its pop-
ular education series of brochures.
Issued for free distribution to in-
dividual home owners and to high
schools, public libraries, home mod-

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

ternal body temperature, regulates

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.
