ing conditions favorable, she has
been using outer walls and top-f1oor
ceilings to condense water vapor
into troublesome moisture.
Because moisture in walls often
rots woodwork, causes paint to peel
and plaster to fall, and stimulates
the growth of fungi, the govern
ment's findings are of major i'm
portance to home owners, architects
and builders.
According to the government, the
remedy for wet walls is a vapor
seal or barrier in the warm parts
of outer walls and ceilings. This
prevents the water vapor in a house
from entering the cold parts of walls
and ceilings where it may be con-
densed into water.
Oddly, damp walls are aggravat-
ed by the most modern types of
construction, Mr.. Teesdale points
out. He says that storm sash. in
sulation, weather strips and calking
around windows and doors make
the normal humidity or vapor pres
sure within a house higher than in
one less tightly constructed. He
adds that improvements that add
to comfort and health are worth
while and SHOULD not be discour-
aged, but it so happens that they
introduce the unanticipated moisture
problem"

the interiors of walls and ceilings,
where in cold weather it will be-
come sufficiently chilled for some of
the vapor to condense into water.
This condensation may take place
within building or insulating ma
terial, unless remedial action is
taken.
The remedy is given in the gov
ernment's report. 1t says:
The most positive, and least ex-
pensive, method of control so far
experimental with at the Forest
Products Laboratory is the use of
vapor resistant barriers near the
inner face of the wall and under
ceiling joists under the attic"
New building materials which fol-
low the governments suggestion
have been provided. A new cane
fiber lath is vapor sealed on one side
with coatings of asphalt and alumni
mum powder, the uncoated side
having a texture to take plaster.
The seal, in line with the govern
ment's findings, is placed in the
warm side of the walls and ceilings
where it resists vapor penetration
to the cold areas where condensa-
ton takes place. Although combin-
ing insulation and resistance to
vapor, the new product does not
block the space between studs and
permit walls to continue their nor
NAL breathing"

MERMEN LOSE
TO CHISHOLM
Drop Contest, 1927, Following
Tie Score in Meet Before
Christmas Vacation.

Ely high school swimmers lost at
Chisholm, 1927, Saturday, after having
tied the Chisholm paddlers, 33-all, in
a pre- hristmas meet here.
The local navigators, participating in
their first contest of the New Year
failed to display the form that marked
the previous meets.
Only in the 180-yard medley relay
did they look like the swimmers that
they are capable of being, taking this
event In l minute SAL seconds.
Irritated at the performance of his
squad, Coach Max Herseth is threaten
ing to leave most of them at home
when it comes time for the state
tournament. Many of the boys are
swimming events from one to four Sec
onds slower than they did a year age
at this time, indicating, according to
Herseth, that they have not yet reached
the condition they should be in.
The work of Joe zaic, who placed
second in diving with 504 points to
Loushine of Chisholm with 624 points,
was outstanding, Coach Herseth said
Loushine is heralded as the coming
state high school champion.
Ely captured but one first place as
compared with four in the previous
meet. With the score 1927 in favor of
Chisholm and the free style relay
coming up, Ely could have scored seven
points for two-point win If it had
captured the final event. Paul Hend-
rickson, i'll in bed, did not accompany
the team.

Pneumonia is January
Subject for nlpaign.

Pneumonia has been chosen as the
subject of the first series of monthly
campaigns of health information under
taken for 1899 by the Minnesota State
Medical association.
In the first three bulletins on the
subject, issued today by the aSsoci-
atoms committee on public health edu-
cation, reasons for emphasizing every
phase of prevention and control Of this
disease killer are outlined; also a plea
is made by the physicians for greater
use of the modern serum treatment
which health officials believe will cut
the death rate in half If it is properly
used in all appropriate cases.
Pneumonia caused 2059 deaths in
Minnesota in 1887, according to this
bulletin. Only heart disease, cancer,
accidents and cerebral hemorrhage took
greater toll and 900 Of the deaths
were in young people in the ages Of
greatest usefulness.
The large number of pneumonia cases
that have appeared during the early
winter months indicates, also, that this
years death rate may go to an even
higher figure unless a determined ef-
fort is made by everybody to control it.
Pneumonia prevention is a matter
of avoidance, as far as possible, Of con-
tact with the disease. Equally i'm
portant, it is matter of taking care
of all colds and also of keeping in good
physical condition since it is well known
that pneumonia is much more likely TO
attack people who are fatigued or
under-nourished or weakened by illness
or other causes.
The best hope for terminating the
disease quickly, once it appears is by
examining or tipping" the sputum
promptly to find out if serum has
been developed which will control it.
In from 81 to 10 per cent Of all pneu-
moniaS there is such a serum and this
serum, if given early will save at least
half the lives that are now sacrificed
yearly

Biwabik was given chance to whip
Virginia when they met last Thursday
night, but even their most ardent sup
porters hadn't figured on the 1920
drubbing Coach AL LaZella's squad
handed the Bluedevils.
Biwabik boosted a 1877 advantage at
the half which is a sizeable margin
when the potency of the Queen City
club is considered. Scoring 10 field
goals, all but one of which was outside
the free throw circle, Biwabik looked
like the old Mccoy, and then some,
as it handed the Bluedevils their first
defeat of the season.
Biwabik went into the lead in dis
trict competition by outclassing Inter
national Falls, 26-16, on the formers
court, Saturday night.
Gilbert retained its top-bracket
position by downing Aurora, 1920,
Friday evening. Ely dropped its Sec
ond one-point game of the season to
Eveleth, 1924, the same evening. Just

end is the Virginia. Gilbert fray on
the latter's floor. The loser will have
small chance of coping first place
in district competition. A battle every
bit as torrid as the Virginia Biwabik
encounter is in the offing, and the
outcome is just as important.
Gilbert downed Biwabik, 27-25, and
then lost to Virginia, 27-19, so only a
Charlie Mccarthy would predict the
winner of the battle at Gilbert, Friday
evening.

FINDS WHY HOMES
HAVE DAMP WALLS
U. S. Government Says Vapor Barrier Will
Stop Formation of Winter Dew.

The physical phenomena which
cause damp walls and ceilings in
cold weather are explained by the
government scientist.
All air contains water vapor.
Warm air can carry more vapor
than cold air. When moist warm
air is sufficiently chilled, it will
throw off some of it's vapor in the
form of water. This is dew. AS wa
ter vapor will penetrate ordinary
plaster and untreated insulating ma
terials, it will, therefore, pass into
