Why , ehou+ld it be supposed that ran .giving a vote to, elect a mane to the Position' of mayor,' reeve or council-, lea in a`8own like Olmton, one is con- fering a` favor on the One voted•for? ?Aver 'before . have lye heard so • much adverse criticism of the prac- tise of the personal canvas' in muni- . sipul campaigns • as we have heard 'this year.: "I resent being. asked for. •,nrY vote," one. very levelheaded cit- izen remarked to ;The -Newe-Record. 2"1 think I have intelligence enough 're ,make :up my own mind as to the merits of the isevitial candidates 'who are offering themselves and I ado not like to have then coming to 'me to ask for my vote." Then, the 'tendency is for a candidate to pro- 'ssise much mare than any man can -possibbly perform;. When a man is selected to tate couneil board he is lust one of eight and; in order to every. out`• any idea of his own he • 'Itias to sell that idea to at.least four' seller members of; the.boaid. The • 'fit 'of a -good eteneillor is not, so -;`.anuch in Waving sone good idea as to tsvic in; rovemisint but in being able sir work with his fellow-couneillors in getting these improvements inaut;- tai ted::' No ora man going into the Aeon council ; can reduce taxes, build •a` nerd cs' n -'*1, pave a street and give bonuses -to all public institutions 'A41'by 'himself. But, if he is a man of good judgement and has the .hap- 'Ity faculty of being able to work amicably with his fellows, he may exercise quite a weighty influence 'toward economy in necessary outlay and the introduction of permanent •4m'pro'defnents. Then; the idea seems to •be pretty '3irevrilent that when a citizen gives a vote electing another to a post in the nluuicipal commit he is doing • Viet -man a personal favour. The re- verse is the case. The man who -.cements to take a seat at the civic eouneil table and transact the busi- ness of the muniipaiity for a year is the one who confers'a favour. In'm 'town like Clinton, where no remun- eration is given mayor orecouncil- 'Jars, a man undertakes a lot of work and worry and will probably be re - 'weeded by a lot of abuse by taking a post on the council. • Instead of 'Peeiing that they are conferiug . a boon 'on a than by electing him to • the cdencid eitizens Haight serve 'themselves better if they would' in- telligently choose the men who are Test fitted to transact public of - lairs. elect them to public positions, island behind them during their term of office and make them feel that 'they appreciate their public spirit in being willing to spend time and effort- in managing the affairs of 'file citizens in general, The man hest fitted to do the town's business as a rule will not spend time can- vassing for votes, he may be -.Wiling to give ,his time to the transaction of ' • business but he will not waste it hunting votes. 'If the citizens want frim to serve .them they will elect him, or he can stay at home and mind his own affairs.

HUMIDITY IN HOUSE HEATING The air in Canadian houses dur- ing a large portion of the artificial heatiti system is, with few a tcep- tions, drier than that of the digest desert.

House heating is inore than the simple .process of maintaining the indoor temperature at that point where One does'"ilot feel Bold. The designers of present day heating apparatus have -done. excellent work considered front that staiicipoint•, but, as a rule,- they have -neglected to take into account the .iratural law which governs the relation be- tween " air temperature and' air moisture. The remit is that, gener- ally speaking. Canadian indoor air during the winter. is 'excessively dry. This excessive air . dryness' is • in- jurious : to health, affecting more particularly the respiratory organs and the skin. It is destructive to. clothing'^ and .furnishing fabrics.

"Humidity in House Heating," a bulletin recently published by the Dominion Fuel Board in co-opera- tion with the Natural Resources In- teiligence Service of the Depart- ment of the Interior, points out that cold, air saturated with moist- ure becomes dry .on beating not be- cause moisture has been removed, but .because of its greatly increased moisture capacity .a,t the higher temperature. The air in houses dur- ing the winter cannot be otherwise than dry, unless provision is made itt the heating equipment, or by other means, to satisfy adequately this increased moisture capacity. Moreover the admission' of large quantities of outdoor air increases to a corresponding extent the moist- ure which must be supplied for this purpose. "Humidity in House Heating" discusses briefly in non-technical language the essential features of air dryness in house heating cause, effect, and retnedy. It explains what is meant. by the expression "relative htunidity'e and point's out that, for health and "comfort, indoor relative humidities of from 40 to 50 per cent, should be main- tained, throughout aintained,throughout the winter. It shows how a hydrotneter is .used to measure. relative humidities, and points out that the effective, control of •humidifying equipment depends upon .results• as measured by means of • the instrument. • In . addition to indicating, in a 'general way, various types of hum- idifiers whieh.may be used, either in conjunction with the heating equipment or, independently, to sup ply the moisture for healthful, humidification, this bulletin stres- ses the fact that .the .evaporation of a few quarts of water. per day in the average Canadian housae dur- ing the winter. months give prac- tically no relief • from air dryness. The evaporation, of from three or four to twelve or inore gallons per day may be necessary, depending upon whether. conditions and vent- ilation. ent-ilation . M The purpose in issuing "Humid- ity in House Heating" is not only to further the cause --o£ goods health but:. to promote the more effcient employment of the fuel for .house heating; since , the fuel used to maintainthe high temperatures of 72 to 75 'degrees for comfort under dry air conditions may be used to greater. • advantage in ..evapor.a;Ling the water' for healthful humidifica- tion of air at the more Moderate erature required, t tem n Comfort t q Conies et "Ilutnidity in' IIonse Heatnig"' tray be obtained free on, request .from, the .
