Reduced Heat in Homes
To Save Oil Proposed
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated SIcoS.
NEW YORK, Aug. 9.-William c..
McTarnahan. president of the Fuel
Oil Association of New York, said
today that the upper Eastern Sea-
board States by reducing Office and
home temperatures to IS degrees
during the winter could save more
than 924 100000 gallons of fuel oil
and thereby release at least 26 more
tankers for service in the battle
of the Atlantic"
He said in an interview that his
proposal was based on survey of
temperatures and oil consumption
in the Seaboard States from WASH
ington north.
This estimated saving would re-
suit from a threefold plan, he
said, suggesting:
Setting thermostats in all oil
burning homes in the area at IS de-
greeS.
Setting thermostats in all fac
tories, Office buildings, apartment
houses, hotels and department stores
at IS degrees and where heating
laws conflict. revise the laws. New
York City's heating law requires a
minimum of So degrees in such
places from 6 am. to 10 PM
From bedtime TO 6 am. set ther-
mostats back to As degrees in all
homes.

The toll of Gloucester dead this

in the simple ritual.
Before that-back centuries to
the beginning of the fishing indus

They were marked by the same

duced the toll from the hundreds

Informal Cards Convenience
To Niceties Of Living
By MRS. CORNELIUS BEECKM
Authority on Good Manners

plate-marked, but to my taste
they are vastly more distin-
guished without this mark.
Order matching envelopes.
The message is written on the
third page. or on the second and
third pages used as one.
Smart Use
One OF the most convenient
uses for these cards is for the
sending of invitations to all
kinds of informal parties. Gra-
ciously and appropriately they
invite guests TO tea, cocktail
party. bridge or any other
games, TO a housewarming, buff
fet party, Sunday morning
breakfast. dessert and coffee
party. shower, musical. picnic,
small canoe.
Also for the little replies that
accept or regret these informal
parties. the cards may con-
venient1y be used.
An Inspiration
When your desk is equipped
with Informals, you'll find them
an ever-present inspiration TO
write the hundred and one little
messages that add a charming
grace to life. A few high
hearted words Of felicitation to
the parents of a newborn child.
A message of congratulation to
a friend about a new position,
promotion. a graduation, or any
other event important or sig
nificant TO his or her life: a little
message of well-wishing sent, OF
left at the home of. a friend who
is ill; a bon voyage message;
those gracious words of APP
probation to be written TO your
hostess the day or so after her
party.
These folded-over cards are
widely used to notify friends OF
a new or temporary address, or
a telephone number. They are
often sent as reminder cards. a
follow-up to a telephoned invita-
ton, repeating the date. place,
hour, and perhaps adding the
kind of dress expected.
Informals do not take the
place of visiting cards: visiting
cards are formal. These folded
over cards are, as the name says,
informal, and they should never
be left or sent unless a message
is written on them. Neither do
Informals take the place of let
tiers or notes; they are message
cards"

Pick CounCi|men
For Cleveland
Gas Study

Councilmen Eugene I. Van Ant
werp and Robert G. Ewald today
were delegated by Council Presi-
dent John w. Smith to visit the
Cleveland gas liquefaction plant
there and find its possible appli-
cation to Detroit's gas problem.
The inspection was suggested by
Cleveland Councilman William c.
Reed. who said that the plant in
which gas is liquefied. and thus
easily stored, had saved Cleveland
81. 500, 900, the price of an addi-
tional pipe line.
The Detroit gas company has
claimed that part of its present
rates are based on the cost of
maintaining gas manufacturing
facilities as a standby service for
emergency use. Various gas stor-
age plants have been suggested for
replacing this.

THOSE LITTLE bills! When
you don't plan your spending
how surprisingly big they can be.
It's only a dollar more, you tell
yourself when you're shopping
and then on the first of the
month you're flabbergasted at
what you owe.
But on a budget you realize
that every dollar has its place
to shelter, food and so on.
But this doesn't cramp your
style. If you see an especially
nice dress that costs a few more
dollars than you planned you
ask yourself: do / really need
it? Is it worth it?"
If the answer is yes, you take
the extra dollars off the price
of that new coat. Or you might
find you don't need a new purse
after all. Then at the end of the
month your clothing bills fit
nicely into the safe IL per cent
of your income that your budget
allows.
Food, too. you manage as clev-
erly. If you decide to splurge on
a roast when the ThomaseS
come to dinner you make up for
it later in the week by serving
stew.
= Life is so much more fun. so
much more worthwhile when
your finances are in the black!
