HOME HEATING ADVICE
RY ARA MARCUS DANIELS.
Consulting and Advisory Engineer.
ADEQUATE Plants Save Money.

Estimated costs for installing hot
water heating systems often vary over
wide limits. The home owner should
realize that when all is said and done
that which he is seeking is heat"
II proposals are obtained from sew
eral heating contractors 1t behooves the
owner to be sure that he Will not be
sorry that he selected the lowest bid.
The lowest first price IS apt TO be the
least attractive when all the facts are
known. Remember always that ulti-
mate aim and desire is for heat" Re-
member also that the heating plant is
paid for only once. Fuel bills for oper-
ating 1t are a continuing expense. An
apparent saving on first cost may mean
excessive operating cost.
Matter of Temperature.
It is possible to maintain a tempera-
ture OF 20 degrees in a residence with
a plant IS per cent smaller in capacity
than should have been installed. To
do so. however. requires large fuel con-
sumption, high flue temperatures with
excessive chimney losses, frequent at
tendance to the fire and general in
creased deterioration to the plant.
1t is better to spend enough money
for an adequate and suitable heating
plant than to contract for cheap plant
and pay for such ShortSightedneSS dur
ing its entire life.
Two or more heating contractors will
seldom present bids for a heating plant
for a residence that are comparable
unless they are given the same blue
prints and specifications on which to
bid. 1t is In the owners interest TO
supply such plans and specifications
and no proposal should be accepted
which does not clearly set forth In de-
tail the work that Is TO be done.

firming that the note had been

government, refused to reveal its
contents. Nationalist officials how
ever, said it read about as follows:
"Since the Civil war has reached
a crisis in north China and In view
of the fact Of the many Americans
residing in that area, apprehension
is felt for their safety. The United
States has taken measures to assure
the protection Of its nationals and
their concentration where protection
is possible. Please instruct the Ma

standing.

Boy Fails

Bend, Ore, May 21.-tP-Frank
T. Johns of Portland, Ore, Socialist
Labor candidate for president in
1924. was drowned here yesterday in
a vain attempt to save boy from
a similar fate.
The youth, Jack Rhodes, 12-ycar-
old son Of Mr.. and Mrs. J. G. Rhodes
OF Bend, was fishing from bridge
over the Deschutes river when he
lost his balance and fell into the
swift stream. Johns, who was on
his way to address political meet
ing in a park along the river. saw
the boy being swept downstream
and plunged in after him.
Johns reached the boy 25 yards
from shore and managed to tow him
to within 10 feet of the bank. There
the rescuer became exhausted. He
made a desperate attempt to push
the boy ashore and in the effort
both went down.
1t was said that Johns was to
have been a candidate for the presl-
dency again this year on the Social
ist-Labor ticket. He had lived in
Portland about nine years and was
a member of the carpenters union
there. He had been active in poll
tics for several years.
