To find out, shut off all the
fires in your house, note the
position of the short hand on
the small.dial on your meter
and look at it three or four
hours later. If it has moved,
you may be sure the gas is
leaking.
To find this leak, coat each

escaping, it will bubble
through the soap. Then call
a plumber. He will know
how to fix it.
