sooner get settled in our iv-

registering their discomfort.

My wife lends them sweat

fellow who contends that it
would be more practical to
keep a supply of overcoatS

He was a 9O-degree man.
Secret ThermOstat
Uncle Horace and Aunt
Mamie shared a two-apart-
ment house with their
d daughter and son-in-law,
Effie and Jerry. The heat
for both apartments was
controlled by a thermoStat
in Horace'S living room. But
Jerry couldn't stand the heat
nor the bills-and one day
while the others we're out
shopping he installed a new
thermOStat in a secret place
in the cellar and discon-
nected the old one. Uncle
Horace couldn't understand
why his thermometer would
cling so stubbornly to 20
when his thermostat called
for 90-and sometimes even
100. He cursed the heating
system and donned another
sweater.
One day, quite by accident,
Aunt Mamie discovered the
secret thermostat. She told
Effie, and the two con-
fronted Jerry. "You ought

Mamie said. Keeping poor

in. "Wait'll we tell him why
he can't get warm"
"Craziest heat I ever
had" Uncle Horace told
me on his next visit. Couldn't
get it above 20 for nearly four
weeks, and then-bingo!-it's
80 again. Must have been
stuck or something" Then,

sweaters around his Shout
