Iaround-not just in the summer.
A fan in winter? you ask. Yes,
and it makes sense, too. But We'll
get into that story come next fall.
Right now the summer is to be
considered!
According to "The Electric Fan
Manual" issued by the National
Electrical Manufacturers Associa-
ton, an electric fan blows air in
Ia forward stream by physical
force. very much as a players
bat propels a baseball. Each
blade, as it rotates, picks up
parcel of air and strikes it with
its inclined surface so that it
continues to move forward. (Why
do you think fan blades are
shaped and pitched as they are?)
When the air is being propelled
forward by the blades a partial
void or low-pressure area is Gre
ated behind the fan blades, and
air is moved in from the back
and sides to keep the fan sup
piled. You can get a greater eff
feet with a smaller oscillating fan
than with a larger one of the sta
tionary type. obviously. The air
is agitated in an irregular pat
tern and therefore provides wider
cooling effect.
In theory, a fan should be used
to displace hot air and replace
it with cool air. This is simple
in cities where the air outside
lis sppreciably cooler at night.
Set your fan in front of a win
dow, opened, and at the same
time open doors or windows OPP
lposite to permit the cool air to
be drawn in as the hot is blown
out. Your own problem of cross
ventilation is one which you will
have to solve by experiment and
by following the main idea of
exhausting hot air and bringing
in cool.
But what about Washington,
where so often it is cooler indoors
than out, especially if the house
or apartment has been kept closed
and shaded all day? Then you
have the situation Of stuffiness,
but opening windows will let in
the heat from the streets, so is
out of the question. The answer
Iis-circulation of air.
In this case, the actual tenn
perature indoors will not drop, but
you will feel cooler because of the
motion Of air in the room against
your skin. Unless you are af-
If1icted with claustrophobia, you
don't have to worry about lack of
oxygen, as tests have shown that
in any room, unless Theoretically
sealed. enough oxygen to meet
body needs will enter around
doors and windows even when
they are closed. The stuffiness is
not due to lack of oxygen as much
as it is due to lack of air motion.
To circulate the air in a single
room, set non-oscillating fan at
one side so that it directs the flow
of air parallel to the long wall.
AS the currents of air strike the
end wall they will bounce back
into the room to set up a constant
rotation of air without causing a
direct draft. If you use an oscil-
Ilating fan. aim it in the same di-
Irection-it will produce a cooling
effect even more quickly through
stirring up greater motion.
i AS the night wears on and
Temperatures outside really drop,
it will be possible for you to
switch to the blow hot-draw- cold
principle by directing the fan out
one window and opening the
1others.
In some instances I have found
that a reversal of this procedure

Fire Prevention
Week October 7-13

This is the week when all fam
lilies are urged to stop fires before
they start, according to William
&c. Sloan, Assistant County Agri-
cultural Agent in Sussex County.
Fires which destroy valuable
property and even lives are so
often the cause of careless things
that people do, continues Mr.. Sloan.
The lighted cigarette or match that
is not quite out when thrown
away. Smoking near infiammable
material like oily rags, hay or
gasoline storage. Or fire may start
from electric wiring which may be
improperly installed, in need of re-
pair or misused. The electric iron
left on when answering the phone
or that frayed cord in the living
room lamp that you are going to
fix but never seem to get around
to.
Mr.. Sloan also urges Jnat a house
cleaning take place in the attic and
basement of your home. An accu-
mutation of old papers, oily cloths,
paints, varnishes, etc, makes a
wonderful place for a fire to thrive.
Now with fires being started,
chimneys are another source of
fire hazard. Have these inspected
and cleaned before long. Be sure
