AIR SYSTEMS
RENDER MANY
BENEFITS HERE

The modern craze for air-condi-
tioning is more than just fad in Ell
Centre. Perhaps its Importance and
benefits have been exaggerated in
some directions, but in some re-
spects its advantages have been only
partially appreciated. For example.
for its use in stores only the comfort
of the customers has been empha-
sized. and even that has been more
or less confined to the summer
cooling phase of air-conditioning.
But this is probably its least i'm
portant benefit. The ll-year-round
cleansing of the air reduces the dust
that is stirred up by the moving of
the customers feet upon the floors
and, consequently spares the stock
the necessity of catching it all as
it settles; the removal of the sopor-
ific effect of bad air upon the en-
ployees by the publication and hu-
modification of the air in winter in
creaSes their efficiensy and hence
their sales.
The same is true of the customers;
stale air quickly dulls their enthus-
iaSm and sends them out to get a
breath of outdoors before they have
finished the shopping they had
planned. Great crowds of people in
close contact quickly use up the oxy-
gen in the air, and the bad air, be-
ing heavier than the good, forms in
a layer near the floor and reacts
upon those breathing it. Hence the
necessity of drawing it off and re-
placing it with pure air.
1t is probable that the store with
out ir-conditioning will be as much
a curiosity in a few years as is the
one today with large pot stove in
the center for heating.

POWER RATES
OUT OF SIGHT
FOR MAN Y

There will be no excess of power
if rates to consumers are lowered
to such an extent that these con-
sumerS can use electrical appli-
ances in their homes and at work
without paying eXhorbitant prices
for this service. says a writer in
a record issue of a public owner
ship magazine. This writer re-
flutes the argument f opponents
to publicly owned systems that
new power development would ere
ate a surplus which would not be
used.
"UnqueStionably more power is
available in California, and prob
ably throughout the country than
can be uSed-at the prices charged
for that power by privately owned
corporations. Throughout the CAL
ifornia agricultural districts, for
example, motors are being dis
carded, and all sorts of subSti-
tutes used. because of power rates
beyond the ability of orchardists
and farmers to pay the article
points cut
As an example of what increase
in power use can be expected
when rates for this power are low
cred through the operation CT a
municipality or publicly owned
plant, the writer cites the expert
ence of Ottawa Canada.
In 1914 the net cost per XVIII,
TO domestic consumers in Ottawa
was five cents and the average
monthly consumption per house
hold, 10 kwhs. BY 1919 the net
cost had been reduced to two cents
per XVIII, while the average month
ly consumption had increased to
as kwhs. Five years later the
average cost per XVIII was down
to IL cents, and the average con-
sumption per household up to 139
kWhs. Since 1924. the net cost
has declined steadily, while con-
sumption has increased with every
drop in price. The 1892 Ottawa
report shows that the net cost
fer domestic use was down to
nine tenths Of a cent per XVIII,
while the average monthly con-
sumption per household was up
to 313 kwhs.

WINDOWS

In planning bedroom windows the
top of the window should be at least
seven feet above the flor. If the
ceilings are over eight feet six inches
high, the window heads should be
even higher, or the windows will
