ChinkS around windows and

OF fuel MASTERS.
An easy as well as inexpensive
way 10 effect important savings in
fuel is 10 fill these openings with

pounds. depending upon the kind
and size Of the opening. Putty and
glazing compounds are especially
suitable for use with window glass,
while caulking compounds, which

knife. are made especially for the
larger openings elsewhere in the
structure of the house.
Heat that is permitted 10 escape

greatly increases the fuel bill, the

is a drain on available fuel sup

that the purposes for which loans

shifts between January ana Oc-

Loans for war housing. privately
built and financed, accounted for
some 1l54 per cent Of all the

chase loans were 65 per cent
