Four Rules for Conserving Heat

In the Apartment or Small Home

MANY APARTMENT DWELLERS from coast to coast have made

up their minds to “take it” with lower temperatures indoors this winter

In the cause of fuel conservation—all hopes and expectations of land- |

Jords for normal fuel supplies to the tontrary. : Gai "So thewbig question is how to keep the heat provided within the walls Of .an apartment on raw, chilling days, during periods of bitter wind and

stretches of severe winter weather. “Heating engineers of the American Gas association point out that

DEAR JANE JORDAN-—I have Tead several articles concerning war time marriages, and I would like to state. my opinion in the matter. + I am a soldier's wife and I am proud of it. We were married on his furlough. Some people say I was silly for doing such a thing. They may be right, but I would never agree with them. . efia When my hushand came home on #4 10-day - furlough he' asked -me to ‘marry him. I couldn't refuse be‘cause as he put it, it gave him ‘courage to know that he had some- - one to love him and stick by him. That is what I intend to do. People preach about marrying while the

‘apartment ‘houses (also two-family {houses and private homes in which

a suite of rooms is rented), considerable savings in fuel can be effected. “- The following suggestions for cooperation will prove useful in the months ahead: 1. Windows ‘are great wasters of heat. Where double panes are not in use, rooms will be warmer on cold days and nights if Venetian blinds are closed or window shades are pulled down, or heavy draperies are drawn across the windows. 2. It ‘is a universal custom to conceal radiators by means of covers,

shelves or enclosures. Unless such|

covers or_enclosures are designed correctly and made properly, they retard or restrict the free circula~ tion of air over the radiator and the room is chilled. » » »

Much of the preaching which you hear against war time marriages is sound, especially those hastily made between couples who do not know each other very well. After the emotion generated by

. ,the war has died down and the

more prosaic realities of living to-

- gether are faced, many a girl will

find that she is not married to a ‘hero at all but to a human being not in the least exciting or compatible. i Young men who had no desire to marry before the war suddenly f. that they must cram in all the ex-

periences of life while they are in

the army for fear of missing some-

if it is, then the covers, shelves or enclosures should be removed. Also, some form of insulation or insulating material installed behind radiators which are placed against outside walls is effective in keeping the heat within the apartment.

3. ‘When the windows in a room

are opened for purposes of airing, the door to that room should .be closed. In case the heating is a warm air system, as in a private home or small multiple dwelling, the register in the room should be closed to prevent the cold air from the open windows rushing through the register to the furnace and chilling the air circulation to the other . rooms. 4. In wartime it is an extravagant use of fuel to depend upon the gas range oven or tap burners to heat the kitchen or provide auxiliary heat. This is an inefficient way of heating the kitchen anyhow and now might develop a shortage at ak periods for gas has hundreds { uses in the produetion of defense terials.
