New heating units reflect the postwar trend toward styling for
beauty and compactness.
Shown in the illustration IS a convector for use with hot water
and steam heating systems. The new unit has clean, modern lines and
may be recessed under windows so that it is entirely unobtrusive yet
highly efficient in the distribution of heat.
A convector consists Of two basic parts-a heating unit which
carries the hot water or steam and transfers its heat to the air and
an attractive steel enclosure in which the heating unit is installed.
Hot water or steam circulates through the heating unit and
warns the air above it. Being lighter, the warmer air rises in the
enclosure and is discharged into the room through the outlet grille.
Cooler, heavier air is drawn in through the lower opening of the en-.
closure, comes in contact with the heating unit where it is heated,
rises, and is circulated into the room.
Room air is circulated through conyectors on an average of three
times per hour. The warm front Of the enclosure provides radiant
heat directly beneath windows where convectors are usually installed
and where radiant heat loss is greatest.
!. Close temperature control, quick response to the demands of thu
convectors as distributors Of heat.

MY NAME happens to be George.
But today / would like to use
these paragraphs to present the
thoughts of a friend Of mine
named James, who writes about
another George: the George that
everybody waits for. Our guest
writer is DR.. James w. Fifeld,
Jr., a minister on the West Coast.
An inspirational religious leader
for many years, DR.. Fifield is
also a leader in his community's
civic life.
Dr.. Fiield is much interested
In the welfare of the common
man. He believes that national
problems deserve the attention of
the entire public. A scholar Of
public opinion and public ques-
tons for a long time, DR.. Fifield
is a careful observer of trends.
An active contributor to religious
journals and to radio programs,
he knows also how to express his
ideas.
Who Is mos everyone l
George? know thinks the world
is in a mess. They
think that trends in our country
are wrong, that we are threat
ened with dark days unless trends
are changed, but they are wait
ing for George to change them.
Recently / spoke to a gather
ing of educational administrators.
AS | visited with different ones, I
found them greatly concerned.
They feel there is more frustra-
ton and anxiety now than at any
time during the war. They recog-
nize that education has helped
create the problem which present
ly exists, but they are waiting for
George to remedy it.
