First Aid
For the
Aiing House
By ROGER b. WHITMAN.

Question: have heard it said
that paint should not be applied
outdoors under go degrees. Why?
My sisters house was painted last
winter and is in good shape.
Answer-When painting is done
outside the temperature should not
be less than so degrees. At lower
temperatures the oils in the paint
will CONCEAL and the paint will be
too thick to make a good bond. In
your sisters house the painters evil
IDENTIFY knew their business and
thinned the paint properly for good
spreading and good bond to the
surface.
Heat Through Floor.
Question-Do you know of any
asbestos rug pad or mating that
could be used underneath rug to
prevent heat from penetrating the
rug and drying out furniture? The
boiler is directly under the floor OF
our apartment.
AnsWer-In the rug sections OF
department stores you can get a
hair felt pad, which you can place
under your rug. This pad may help
to some extent, but your best rem
edy will be to convince your land
lord to put more insulation on the
boiler and pipes in the cellar. He
will not only effect a saving in fuel
but will also make the apartment
above the boiler room more COM
Portable.
Electric Outlets.
Question: am about to have my
house wired for electricity. Car
you give me any suggestions or
where the outlets should go?
Answer-You should have one SET
of outlets for lights and another set
for appliances, cooking utensils
vacuum cleaner, etc. Do not over
look permanent outlets for an elec-
trio refrigerator, oil burner ano
electric clocks. Do not put outlets
where they might be covered by
heavy furniture. In my own house
outlets for plugging in a vacuum
cleaner are waist high alongside
doors for convenience in making a
connection. Bedside outlets are
also high IN the wall where they
can be reached from the bed with
out getting up. A living room can
be lighted by floor and table lamps,
but for kitchen, dining room and
bedrooms lighting is usually by cell
ing light controlled by switches at
the door, more rarely by wall
brackets.
Cold Garage.
Question-My two-car cement
block garage, with three exposures
and one window, is very cold. I
would say this is due to the cement
blocks holding the cold. The doors
are fitted well and tight. Can
line the inside with a lining that
will keep the heat from the en-
gine in the garage? There is no
heat in the garage.
Answer-The heat given off by
the engine of an automobile will not

New VenfiIafor
Solves Fresh Air
Problem in Winter
Clothes Dryer Described
Thut Eliminates
The CIothesIine
By LAWRENCE CROLIUs.

We would probably be very much
surprised if we could figure out
somehow the amount of fresh air
we allow to enter our homes in win
ter, compared to midsummer. We
allow a minimum of fresh air to
come in when it is cold outside,
while in summer every opening is
wide.
With the coughing and sneezing
of colds, and the air dry and thick
inside, it should be advantageous
to have a source of fresh air with
out opening many windows.
Some one who probably stood in
door air as long as he could has
evolved a window ventilator which
allows q modicum of air to enter,
but first strips it of any rain or
snow. These new devices are made
Of a considerable number of verti-
cal channels of rustproof steel, set
in such a way as to make two stag
gered rows. These rows of up
rights make series of slots through
which air may enter, and in be-
tween there is located fine copper
screen of a clothlike texture which
provides an additional battle for in
sects.
This construction makes quite a
pleasant outside appearance and it
is a simple matter to put the ven-
tilators in place under the raised
or lowered window sash. Thus a
supply of air may be assured and
all extraneous matter drains back
to the outside. These new units are
being made for all types of win
dows of the double hung type and
If YOU want to obtain the same idea
in full-sized door panels or possibly
q new louvre for the attic you can
get them on special order all set to
put in place.
New Clothes Dryer.
We saw machine the other day
that seems to be great convenience
for the home laundry. With such
q machine installed next to the
washer the last problem has been
solved at last, the unpleasant busi-
ness of drying the clothes after they
have been washed No longer is
1t necessary to put them through
the wringer with resultant breaking
of buttons and back-Wearying lift
ing of wet clothes to the basement
or backyard clothes line Nor do
you run the risk of dirtying them
when they are Jared off the line.
This appliance is an all-electric
clothes dryer that operates on the
whirling principle used in many
of the large laundries. That is, the
clothes are taken from the washer
and placed in container inside the
dryer, which spins rapidly, hurting
moisture out of the clothes. A cur
rent of dry, warm air, meanwhile
is blown through the tumble, so
that you have a collection of damp
dry clothes in about Is minutes,
The exterior is styled to match
the white refrigerators and stoves.
1t has an opening on the front side
through which you toss wet clothes,
and by the flick of a switch you
have semi-dry clothes all ready to
iron.
This dryer requires special wir-
ing such as is needed for a regula-
ton electric stove, and the manu-
facturers say they are economical to
operate. Anyway, it adds another
few minutes to the time being
acquired by the emancipated house.

committee today favorably reported
the administration bill for a $780,
600 900 export import bank fund for
loans to economically hard-presSed
Latin American countries The vote
uas 8 to 6.
The measure is designed to en-
courage hemisphere solidarity, econ

which would be granted under the
bill could be used to handle crop
surpluses and to build up Latin
American defenses.
The measure was not approved
until after a provision was written
into it, specifically barring loans
to nations such as Great Britain
which have defaulted on debts to
this government. Isolationists hao
feared the bill might be used To
circumvent the provisions of the
johnson act forbidding loans &c
