)AMDEN. s. c., February 90
In Camden, S. c., the whole
place is filling up day by day
with sportsmen from all over
the country, coming to take part In
and to see the hunter trials and
Washington's birthday races, given
under the auspices of the Camden
Hunt Club on February 81 and %.
This two-day event. which takes
place in the center of the Carolina
horse country, is causing more interest
than in any previous years, as the snow
and ice in States north of here has
stopped sporting activities and all
horsemen who can have come here for
riding and to hunt with the Camden
Hounds. The races on Saturday will
take place on the beautiful Springdale
course, owned and developed by Harry
D. Kirkover, who is chairman of both
events. The hunter trials, starting at
1870 pm. tomorrow, are to be held on
the course adjoining the Springdale
course.
Every one is having such a good
time, and I feel fortunate to be here
and to be able to tell you a little
about everything.
One awakes in the morning to the
tune of horses hoofs trotting on dirt
roads-music have not heard for six
weeks, at least in Virginia. Looking
from your window, one sees dozens Of
our best amateur jockeys riding by in
turtle-neck sweaters (as no coats are
necessary in this Southland). Our
gentlemen jockeys are Wintering and
training their horses down here for the
Spring hunt race meetings, and all the
horses look in the very best of condi-
tion. The town is thronged with
young people, who are looking forward

is then circulated during winter
months.
In summer a compressor is in
stalled, and summer air condi-
tioning is obtained over the same
series of duct work and grillS.
This arrangement can be used
on both the oil and gas furnaces
made by the company. Of course,
the unit for winter air condition
ing is turned off during the sum-
mer. It is a'rather neat arrange
ment and economical to operate.
For Large House
The last type of summer air con-
ditioning for today is the type
promised two weeks ago. This is
the type that is connected with
the we'll. It is quite inexpensive
for large house and does decrease
temperature in a remarkable fash
ion.
Needed for it's operation is a well
with an automatic water pump, a
cooling coil, a filter screen, fan
and a method of bringing air in
from the outside.
If the house has a hotrair fur
mace, the cost of circulating the
cool air in the house is minimized,
as it can be connected directly to
the furnace ducts and registers.
The way to work it is simple.
The cool water from a driven well
is piped in to a series of coils.
Warm air from outside is swept
in by a fan over these coils.

convenience to the housewife as
it affords storage space for all

Some of the larger pieces of
equipment come with shelves and

purchased with steel cabinets
underneath. One model has a
drawer for silver, three small
drawers for linen, a chopping
board, and two large doors for
large pieces of equipment. The
sink was white and the white

was not until 1643 that a group
of 10 Puritan families from Vir.
ginia established the colony here
which they named Providence. In
1894 the capital was moved from
st. Mary'S to Anne Arundel Town
as the settlement was then
known, and the next year the
name Annapolis was adopted in
honor of Princess Anne, later
Queen Anne. It is the Oldest char

Home Air Conditioning Plants
Effectire Summer and Winter
New Types
Now on
Market
By JEAN GREEN

Still the popular subject of
the month is air conditioning.
Several new types have been
found to bring the subject up
to date.
In the first article, one type
of portable air conditioner was
described that is connected
under the window.
This was the type used for in,
dividual room air conditioning
and was incased in metal with a
narrow inset dash board with the
proper gadgets to control temper.
ature, air circulation, and humid.
ity. Two other types are consid.
cred today.
One operates on the same prin.
ciple as the one previously de-
scribed and needs only be plugged
into the wall socket and connected
under the window for perfect
operation. Instead Of metal, 1t
comes inclosed in finished wood.
It is finished much as q large
radio and has the control at the
center front in the same location
as the dial would be. It Is con.
nected so that pressing one but
ton ventilates only (circulateS and
filters the air) and the other but.
ton cools and lowers the tempera-
ture in the room.
No Special Wiring
This type has multiple sealed
compressors, hooked in a series. I
was told. The advantage Of this
seems to be that no special wiring
is required and it becomes econ.
omical to operate as only the
current used by a HOW light bulb
is adequate. This type also de.
humidiffes.
The second type is also portable
but can be placed in any part Of
the room and does not have to
be fitted at the open window with
duct-installed so that air Is cir.
culated from the outside.
This type is connected with
the water pipe. 1t is quite com.
pact and protected so that no
dust can get into it. It is also
in a walnut finished steel cabinet
and is controlled from one con-
veniently located switch. The air
circulateS from an open grill on
the top. A huge silent fan pulls
the air in and Is cooled much in
the manner of electric refrigera-
tion. The air is filtered, cooled,
dehumidified.
All of these models operate
with the minimum of noise and
do not vary greatly in original
cost. Apparently the operating
cost Of each is slight. and they
all give controlled relief from
summer heat.
Economical
In considering summer air.con.
ditioning for tine whole house,
the question of heating and win.
ter air-conditioning is presented.
Most of the types noted are con.
nected to the furnace in some
way or other and it does make a
more economical set-up, as the
same ducts and registers can be
used for both seasons.
One company that has built
its reputation on furnaces now
adds winter and partial summer
air conditioning to their warm
air furnaces. The winter air
conditioning operates very effec-
lively. The air is filtered through
steel wool filters, heated, humid.
flied and circulated throughout
the house.
In summer this same fan and
filter system is in operation. The
size needed for the average house
hold brings or 6 changes Of
air in the house per hour.
This constant changing Of air
cools and presents a healthful
way of establishing rather pleas
ant weather in the home.
Another type that illustrates

How to Gain
Space

One of the trends in modern
building is to eliminate the din,
ing room. Instead of a dining
room or dinette, a very cozy
breakfast nook is installed. Guest
dinners or the evening meal are
served in one end Of the living
room.
Some expert calculated that it
was too expensive to have a large
room just for eating-especially
when it was used only once dur
ing the day. In small homes
where space is at a premium, it
became a luxury-So the shelf.
The Washington times., 1936-06-13

moisture is lost so that it also de-
humidifieS. Then the air is filtered
and circulated in the rooms above.
Such a method is a boon to those
in suburbs and in country homes
who long for the advantages Of
this summer comfort.
A thermometer can also be in.
stalled, it seems, in order to gain
perfect control Of the tempera.
ture.
For success, a permanent supply
Of water at least 10 or Is degrees
colder than summer air is needed.
The Washington times., 1936-06-13

what can be obtained in the way
of ideal temperature control
comes in three sections. The first
section is an oil furnace. This
can be set up for hot-water heat
ing, with radiators in each room.
Or it can be set up as a split
system. In this case radiators
are only installed on the second
floor. On the first floor, duct
work is used and two sets of
grills are placed in each room. A
condenser is connected with the
furnace.

Tests Acts
Constitutionality

Seeking to test the constitution
atty of the so-called s'windfall tax"
imposed under the revenue act of
1886 and designed to permit the
government to recapture certain
processing tax funds, the White
Packing company of Salisbury filed
an action in United States district
court here against Collector of Int
ernal Revenue Charles H. Robert
son.
This is the first suit of the kind
in North Carolina and the third ac-
ton in the United States involving
a test of the vadility of the wind
fall tax" according to an attorney
for the plaintiff.
This tax is authorized under the
revenue act adopted by Congress
June p, 1886, permitting imposi-
ton CT a tax of 80 per cent of that
part of next income from the sale
of articles with respect to which
a Federal excise tax was imposed
but not paid which is attributable
to shifting to others to any extent
the burden of such Federal excise
tax and which does not exceed the
persons net income for the entire
taxable year from the sale Of arti-
cles with respect to which such
Federal excise tax was imposed"
