Kent county board of education sensed the misunderstanding a lot of people had concerning the days the children are off school and decided to do something to clear the matter up. Ratepayers have been invited to the day's activities which will include workshops on current topics and guest speakers. The result has been gratifying and many people are registering for the day in advance especially for the workshops. The result should be greater insight into education, how our children are being taught today. With this kind of open mindedness many will find it easier to get involved with their children in activities at school and understand what teachers have to face everyday. If an invitation to PD days were offered in some of the local schools we are sure many would be eager for the opportunity. It is time for the board of education to quit fighting the public they are working for. Let's see some more positivesteps taken in the field of education instead of complaints against the way teachers are conducting their classes. We think that many Canadians do their best to help their rural neighbours. We have in Ontario campaigns to promote Ontario products but the next thing that is required of us may take a little bit of getting used to. Now don't cry, but due to a glut of onions on the market this fall onion farmers are encouraging people to eat extra onions this year. The Ministry of Agriculture has said that if every Canadian ate an extra pound of onions during the year the problem would be solved. For all of you who want to help the farmer make a decent living, here is a small thing that you can do. After all, onions are reported to be good for you. So here's to your health. Moral leadership Murdering all of the people in one family is wrong; murdering the same number in a variety of families, at random, is acceptable. That, essentailly, was the moral message presented by the Ontario government when it decided that the International Nickel Company of Canada (Inco) could continue to pump 3,600 tons per day of sulphur dioxide into the atmosphere. Originally, Inco was to have reduced emissions to 750 tons per day by end of this year. That order has now been changed. Government spokesmen say the research on which the 750 ton figure was based has been superseded; inco's new stack, at 1,250 feet the world's tallest chimney, has produced "acceptable" sulphur dioxide levels in Sudbury and beyond. Acid rains that have been affecting lakes and vegetation in northern Ontario can't be blamed entirely on Sudbury's emissions, they say much of it results from other industrial polluters. Now, no one would imply that emitting sulphur dioxide is the same as committing murder.The damage is not intentional, for one thing. But the facts remain: sulphur dioxide gas is a poison which has caused industrial deaths, has harmed health in Sudbury, and has converted lands nearby into.a wasteland used by U.S. astronauts for moonscape practice.Combined with moisture in the air, sulphur dioxide gas becomes an acid which, in falling, gradually alters soil and water conditions, upsetting delicate ecological balances. And Inco's Sudbury stack, emitting 3,600 tons of sulphur dioxide every day, is North America's largest industrial source of sulphur dioxide in the air. The new 1,250 foot stack distributes emissions over a far wider area, protecting Sudbury itself. It still supplies three percent of North American's total emissions, or about one percent of the total world emissions. And that's just not good enough; Canada ought not to hold such an unenviable distinction. The Ontario government has ruled that 3,600 tons per day of pollutants are acceptable now that they're spread around more thinly. As an economic verdict, or a scientific assessment, that may be "acceptable". As an indication of moral leadership, it is not. The United Church lo.114•0414,41/11 Pansies in November By Keith Roulston Hever there was a time when we needed a, few laughs in this country now would seem to be it. The problem is, I'm not sure people know what's funny anymore. One of the great mysteries in life has always been what makes people laugh. 'there's no hard and fast rule about humour. Comedy is a matter of instinct usually; either you've got it or you haven't. Unfortunately even those who haven't got it try to fake their way through often with excruciating results. No one without talent would try to reproduce a painting of one of the great masters and show it to the public, but womehow a lot of people think they should try to imitate Bob Hope as soon as they stand up to say something. One of the things one gets in this business ofjournalism is a lot of evenings out to cover banquets and such. Unfortunately nearly every banquet comes with after dinner speakers many of whom seem to do their best to ruin the hard work of the ladies who prepared the excellent meals in the first place. Somewhere along the line a lot of people decided that if they were going to say "a few words" at a meeting of any sort, they had better add "a little humour". Unfortunately • too often there is indeed little humour in what they have to say. You know how it goes. The speaker gets up and says thank you for the invitation, remarks then says -"That -reminds me of a little story," What reminded him of the little story I've never yet figured out because 99 time out of 100 there is absolutely no connection between what he was talking about before to what the story is about, Now it's a very traumatic experience getting up in front of an audience as anyone who's ever tried it knows. You can ramble on and get what you have to say said as quickly aspossible so you can sit down or you can try to imitate all those good speakers you've seen over the years. They look so relaxed, like they're almost enjoying it. They make the audience enjoy it too, corning up with witty comments well delivered. Most of us amateurs want to be like those old pros but we haven't got either the experience or the talent to do so. I know the feeling of terror getting up before people. My own urge is to write out the whole speech before hand then read it off as quickly as passible all the time looking down at the paper so I won't see anybody out there. But being conscientious, we usually' try to give that little extra. That means, of course throwing in that famous "little it of humour" to lighten the situation. But if there's one thing worse than getting up in front of a crowd in the first place, it's giving your little joke and either not having people laugh or hearing that hesitant nervous little laugh that tells you everybody' just being polite. When that happens, you want to suddenly develop an instant case of laryngitis and have to go immediately home to bed. A lot of people have come up with a somewhat sure fire answer to the whole mess. They're not going to take a chance on their jokes bombing so they decide to do the one thing that will always get a response from the audience: they tell a slightly off colour joke...or maybe more than slightly off colour. At least half the audience will laugh at a dirty joke even if they won't laugh at a clean one. The other half will go along because they don't want anybody to think they didn't get the joke, even if they're secretly appalled. Then of course there's the joke that is adapted to fit someone prominent in the audience, often the chairman for the ' evening. Half the time by the time the tenuous connection between the victim of the joke and the circumstance of the joke is explained, I couldn't care less about the rest of the joke. And there's the other old standy-by, the ethnic joke. Some speakers make a habit of these following a Jewish joke with an Irish joke with a Newfie joke with a Paki joke etc. 1 guess I'm just too sensitive but they leave Inc a little uncomfortable. There's nothing funnier than listening to an Irishman tell jokes on fellow Irishmen, or a Scot on other Scots of a Jew on his own race, but somehow they don't seem funny when told by members outside the race. You can't really blame people for trying hard to be funny and not really knowing . what's funny anymore. The biggest source of humour (?) these days is television and that's enough to make anyone wonder what's funny. I've sat through some shows ' that were supposed to be riotously funny and found perhaps one good line in a half hour. But the audience is supposed to be loving it. That "audience" of course, consists of a taped laugh track that laughs whenever the producer of the show wants a laugh. It must be great to be a writer on one of those shows: no matter how bad the joke you can always get a laugh by simply writing instructions in the script where the laughs should come. These tricks of the trade are undermining our whole sense of humour just when we need it most. Laugh tracks should be banned in television and if people want laughter in the sound tracks of shows, they should tape all shows in front of live audiences. If the writers and actors can make real people laugh then they've earned their money, If they have to resort to a laugh track then they're just encouraging non -funny people itothink they can do as good as what they see on television.

No Snowmobiles, No Hunters," and each time resolved to investigate that sign further. When I finally did follow through on that resolution 1 was welcomed to the sunnier home and ecological study site of Professor William Andrews, Associate Profes- sor of Science Education at the Faculty of Education of the University of Toronto. 'Ihat name may not be familiar to the reader but it should be to those who have passed through the Ontario high school system within the past 10 to 15 years. Dr. Andrews is the author of the ubiquitous Science 10 from which many of us have attempted to understand the fundamentals of science. Since Science 10, his first book, he has written seven other science texts, including a series of textbooks of ecology and is currently working on his 11111111 book. One book, Environmental Pollution, has been trans- lated into Greek and there has been talk of an Italian translation of one of his books. "These textbooks are also used in Australia, New Zealand, Britain and the U.S.A. in spite of his achieve- ments, Dr. Andrews is a very down-to-earth individual. Raised on a farm in Clinton, he has strong ties with this area. His wife is from the Blyth area and his son farms on his grandparents' farm near Blyth. His brother works the family farm in Clinton. Dr. Andrews took his first two degrees at the University of Western Ontario and finished his formal education at the University of 'Toronto where he received his Bach- elor of Education. After teaching high school for nine years he moved to the Faculty of Education at the University of 'Toronto. As environmental pollution be- came an issue and studies in ecology became more pop- ular in the late 1960's, Dr. Andrews began to offer courses in ecology, after regular hours, to those inter- ested. in the early 1970's these courses became insti- tuted in the regular curriculum of the _Faculty of Education. Dr. Andrews has also been involved with various conser- vation groups. He has served on the executive committee of the Conservation Council of Ontario, an amalgamation of 40 different groups includ- ing naturalists, medical workers, architects, forestry workers and labour groups. It is a large organization with 1,000,000 members. He is also an ex -President of the Toronto Field Naturalists. When asked about any involvement in Pollution Probe, Dr. Andrews said that he attended the first meeting but did not return- hpranep smoking was permitted, "1 will not tolerate hypocrisy," he flatly states. He is deeply committed to this principle and will not deliver his speech if there is smoking in the audience. However, even with all these actyv tics, the time came to fined a piece of land which would serve plainly as a place where teachers and students can conic for sonic practical lessons in ecology. He naturally looked to the arca where he was raised. The property which he chose - 133 acres in all—was pur- chased plainly because of the diversity of habitats found on the land, There are high dry hills, wetlands, a swamp and bog, a sand hill, hills overlaid with rock. and a mature cli- max forest. Each of these habitats attract different flora and fauna, creating the variety necessary for eco- logical studies. The newly purchased land had been poorly managed, affording a professor of ecology ample opportunity to apply sound ecological princ- iples. The steep dry hills had been greatly over -grazed and the cattle had run over the bush leaving the woodland completely devoid of ground vegetation, Since purchasing the land Dr.. Andrews has planted 40,000 trees, plainly on the hilly areas. Arable areas have been left open, while the low clay belt and rocky area have been cleared and planted with trees. Maintaining the property as a site for ecological studies requires a lot of work. Dr. Andrews estimates that he spends 100 hours each year on the tractor mowing the grass to keep weeds down and to create fire breaks. Different sect- ions are plowed with varying intensity in order to have areas in different stages of ecological succession for comparative studies. The many diverse. habitats attract a variety of wildlife. A most unusual and unwel- come visitor last Sllllllllcl' \vaS a Massasauga Rattler. • Dr. Andrews speculates that it was likely dropped by a bird as it is not indigenous to this arca, After a positive identi- fication was made it was quickly killed, something Dr. Andrews is reluctant to do. Where there is no direct threat to human life he prefers to peacefully co -exist with the wildlife, "'They were herr first." he will tell you, He grows 10 times as Many vegetables as he needs in order to feed his family, the animals on the property and his friends, Incidentally. there have been no. further visits from any other rattler. The many varieties of trees found on his property attract many species of buds as well. He grows approxi- mately 600 pounds of sun- flower seeds for the birds, true to his concern for the nearly forms of life around him. When asked to pinpoint an ecological problem in this area, he said that the main problem was water pollution and soil erosion from farm run-off. Within the last seven or eight years more and more bind has been cultivated and wetlands have been drained. t'.ven roadside property has been cultivated and there is less grass to catch the silt. While this has been going on the Ministry of Natural Resources has been flooding areas to create wetlands. However they cannot keep up with the farmers and the water table is rising. Dr. Andrews observes that the river running through his property floods worse each spring. Arable fields are tine to drain but problems arise When wetlands are drained. Dr. Andrews is not without sympathy for the farmers nonetheless. He sees the farmer caught in a cycle which begins with the • de- mand for cheap food, which THE BLYTH STANDARD, NOVEMBER 1, .1978 — 7 Cenetta Bainton, Winona teacher's reception requires more food, which in turn requires more land. Aside from this problem to Dr, Andrews' ‘vay of think- ing this is the hest country- side with the nicest people. Although 110 is happy with his life of teaching and writing Ile eventually (topes to settle permanently on his property, retiring to full -tinge Writing and small -link farm- ing. Dr. Andrews may be a professor at a pig -city university but he takes great delight in the things of nature, During the course of this interview he broke oft and with obvious pleasure pointed out a hummingbird flitting among his trees When I remarked that our hollyhocks seemed to attract the hummingbirds, Ile re- plied that they do indeed and said that he must plant some.

MYMYMMMM..MNNNNNNM.MM..Y.NMN.M Must produce $4,000 for farm tax reduction Agriculture and Food Min- ister 13111 Newman and Inter- governmental Affairs Min- ister Thomas Wells have announced ,jointly that changes to the 1978 farm tax reduction program will rede- line eligible property. To qualify in 1978, a farm property must have produced at least $4,000 worth of agricultural products over the year. The previous qual- ifying amount was $2,000. In cases where the owner rents the properly to a farmer, the value of goods produced by the rented portion of the property alone must be val- ued at $1.000. Under the farm tax reduct- ion program, the Ministry of Marsh World BOTULISM — Akin to food poisoning in man, this disease is responsible for the deaths of many thousands of ducks, geese, shorebirds and many other avian marsh inhabitants each year. The disease is caused by a toxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum which, under the right conditions, can effectively "poison" a marsh. Any decaying animal matter in the mud becomes infected, and if picked up by shorebirds or water- fowl in sufficient amounts the toxin will disrupt the nervous system, causing paralysis and death. To the Ratepayers of East Wawanosh Township I appreciate the co-operation and also getting the acclamation for Reeve for the next two years. I hope for the same co-operation and advice as I had in the past. Drop in at the house any time to see me whether you have a problem or not.

Ceramic file is moving out of bathroom and into style! TODAY'S CERAMIC TILE is 80 handsome that it's stepping out from behind the bathroom door to grace other rooms throughout the house. Here, a contempo- rary family room gains crisp brightness underfoot via a beautifully textured white quarry tile by American Olean. You can live without ice on your windows! Everyone knows windows don't manufacture ice, but if you suffer most of the winter from claustrophobia because you can't see outside, it makes you wonder. Condensation and ice forming on your windows has a simple explanation ... and there is a remedy. It's caused by warm, moisture -bearing inside air coming into contact with the colder window sur- face. As the inside air be- comes chilled, its ability to hold moisture is reduced .. . and the moisture condenses out of the air and onto the window. To find the remedy, you have to consider two factors. Either the inside relative humidity is too high, or the window is too cold. Or it can be both. A new booklet, "Windows and Condensation," pub- lished by Season -all Indus- tries, will help you determine which problem is yours and what you can do about it. It identifies recommended in- side relative humidities for different temperature zones and provides suggestions for reducing humidity if it is too high. It also explains how you can warm up, or insulate, your windows. Single glass, lack of good weatherstrip- ping, and uninsulaied metal frames are generally the cul- prits. According to Fred M. Schmidt, who authored the booklet, "Condensation on windows is no mystery, but there are a lot of myths sur- rounding it because the phenomenon isn't under- stood. 'Windows and Con- densation' makes it under- standable." The 28 -page, illustrated booklet is available by send- ing $2 to Season -all Indus- tries, Department MS, Con- sumer Publications, Indiana, PA 15701. ' Mr. Schmidt advises that the entire subject of win- dows, energy and conden- sation is not thoroughly understood, even by many of the people who sell win- dow energy conservation products, so it is important that the consumer become knowledgeable. For the homeowner to in- vest wisely, it's necessary for him or her to understand condensation, the ways win- dows lose heat, and the right solutions to the different problems. His suggestion to the homeowner is to know what needs to be done be- cause, more than likely, you won't be talking to someone who does. alieruP. F�xN� .

For, these days, tile boasts so much fashion that it has moved into other rooms all around the house, Take quarry tile, for example. In its natural earthen -red state, it'll floor kitchens, foyers, and family rooms beautifully, The glazed variety, which comes in most every color under the sun, can go into any room at all. Gold, dusky green, gulch red will suit a traditional room. The neutrals -from white and beige to brown and black—are superb for con- temporary interiors. And don't forget that area rugs - particularly the Orien- tals and shaggy Ryas - are wonderful accents for tile floors. Those small mosaic tiles ,(so sturdy they're even used in industrial plants) can be worked into great patterns for floors, vanity and kitchen counters. Picture a Bargello- patterned floor for a tradi- tional dining room, for example. Or a plaid tile floor fora masculine den. If you're artistic, you might even use mosaics for underfoot Common scents @Many homemakers have not used air fresheners be- cause they were a visible in- dication that a house is not naturally fresh.

A mosaics windowsill or table top also makes beauti- ful sense, For water won't hurt ceramic tile, and spills wipe right up, Decorative tile designs are plentiful, They range from old Delft and flower motifs to formal medallion and abstract, contemporary pat- terns. Such tiles can perform beautifully around the fire- place and on kitchen backsplashes, tub and shower walls. Also use them on the lower part of a dining room wall. Topped by a dado, the effect is hand- somely architectural, Treat a countryish or Early American room to a ceramic tile floor, Here, a brick - shaped tile is terrific, but you aren't stuck with the usual brick colors. When you go with tile, you can have such classic Ameri- cana hues as blue, real red, snowy white, deep golds and greens, rust and dark brown. With ceramic tile you can even have a floor that looks like parquet, and this is a great solution if you want elegance plus easy care. Think of such a design if you're remodeling a fine old house. Tile in the bedroom? Why not! A white octagonal floor tile with pink or pale blue in- sets would be lovely in a feminine boudoir. And lime green or sky blue tile under- foot is sure to cool a too sunny bedroom. You might even use tile to spruce up old furniture. Tile the top of a tired sideboard or dining table, for example. A pretty decorative tile also makes sense for a dressing table. For a good view of what's new in tile, send 50 cents to the Tile Council of America, 'Dept. M, P.O. Box 2222, Princeton, N.J., 08540.

Plumsteel Interiors FINE FURNITURE • CARPETS • PAINTS • WALLCOVERINGS Have you ever wished that you could spend long winter evenings in front of your own cozy, warm fireplace? Now it's easy to stop wishing and start enjoying. New prefabricated, energy -conserving fireplaces are easy to install and eco- nomical too. For only one weekend's work, you can enjoy the pleasures of a fire- place for a lifetime. Easy installation A simple, step-by-step procedure that any experi- enced do-it-yourselfer can follow is offered by Preway, Inc., manufacturers of energy conserving, heat cir- culating built-in fireplaces, In addition to bringing many hours of pleasure, Preway's new Energy Mizer fireplace can help reduce your heating bills by provid- ing a supplementary source of heat. Rather than steal warm room air for combustion, the innovative Energy Mizer uses outside air for combus- tion, and also re -heats and re -circulates room air for added energy savings. Before beginning, you should determine where you want the fireplace to be lo- cated. To do this, consider traffic patterns, window and door placement, and existing construction features. Choose location carefully Keep in mind that it's best to select a location where the chimney can be installed without cutting rafters or ceiling joists. Also remember that the fireplace opening must be kept at least 30" away from a perpendicular wall of combustible material. How- ever, the back, sides and bot- tom of the fireplace can touch combustible materials with zero clearance de- sign. When the final location is chosen, layout the dimension required on the floor. Posi- tion fireplace and then, using a plumb bob, align the chim- ney pipe and mark the cor- rect opening for the chimney on the ceiling. Cut out this ceiling area with a keyhole saw, taking care to avoid cut- ting any wiring or plumbing above the ceiling. Position the first section of triple wall pipe on top of the fireplace. Then add sections as you continue towards the ceiling, rotating each section until seams are aligned. Frame around the fireplace sides and over top, up to ceil- ing as you go, When the roof has been reached, cut required open- ing for chimney and install flashing, storm collar and rain cap above roof. Remember, the finished chimney must be at least 3' above the roof cutout, and at least 2' above the highest point of roof within 10' of the chimney. Duct site important Back at the fireplace, select outside air duct loca- tions for the Energy Mizer, keeping in mind that these ducts must terminate outside the home so that air is not taken from attic space, above roof, or from any room, es- pecially a garage. When you have located outlet positions, cut 61/" diameter holes for the com- bustion air ducts. Next, se- cure the combustion air el- bows to fireplace, making certain that the first elbow is in a downward position. Next, connect the duct to the elbows. Push duct through the wall or floor from outside, and secure to the duct that is attached to the elbow. Then, don't forget:a1teaitth extension, a very in ••portant safety feature to- :at• against sparks and falling logs. The hearth extension should extend at least 16" in front of and at least 8" beyond each side of the fireplace opening. The hearth must be cov- ered with non-combustible material such as brick, tile, concrete, etc. Check your local building codes and in- stallation manuals for further information. Wide selection The final finishing can be accomplished in an infinite variety of ways. Choose from sheetrock, paneling, brick, stone or ceramic tile, making sure to check for clearance. requirements. Also be certain that the mantel is at least 12" above the fireplace and that the air openings at the bottom and top of the fireplace are not blocked, STOP STAINS Accidentally spill a cocktail, a cup of coffee, a glass of milk?

The crumbs, at least, are left liberally sprinkled around the floor as they de- vour their favorite snack foods. This needn't be a problem, though, even for the mother who .has always yearned for beautiful, soft carpeting in her dining areas. Today's carpet manufac- turers are producing carpet- ing developed to withstand the wear of heavy traffic and careless children, but styled for the most varied and ele- gant decor. Trend Carpet, for exam- ple, through its advanced technology, is introducing a new group of carpets called the "Power Bac" collection, The surface of the carpets is tufted in tight level loops which will withstand consid- erable abuse, and they are finished with a Teflon coating that repels soil. The collection has hidden assets, as well, The carpeting comes with a urethane cush- ioned backing that is fused to the surface. Resistant to moisture, it locks in the pile fibers, add- ing substantially to the durability of the carpet and providing markedly im- proved performance and ap- pearance. For the do-it-yourself folks, it can be ;oose- laid without permanent installa- tion and it can be cut easily with a clean, almost invisible seam. The wearing qualities are so superior that the carpeting comes with a five-year war- ranty. However, the collec- tion not only performs beau- tifully, it also is designed to enhance the quality and character of the room in which it is used. "Kashan," for example, one of three prints in the series, is reminiscent of a legendary Persian nomadic motif. Given a contemporary stylized geometric treatment with today's colors, it pro- vides a lively, jewel-like pat- tern underfoot. Its texture adds a visual warmth, impos- sible to achieve with hard - surface flooring, that con- trasts with the clean, un- adorned wood of the walls and furniture, It is also a warmer surface for young children to play on during the day while, for the mother -on -the -go, the end of the day will find her consid- erably less foot -sore and weary—which, any mother will concede, is very much of a plus factor. Moving into smaller space presents storage problems Few people who have lived in houses all their lives are aware of the storage prob- lems faced by apartment - dwellers. The average apartment is short on closets, and those they have are often small and cramped. It's all too easy in an apartment to let things co- agulate "out of the way," which avoids the problem, without solving it. The trick is to learn to adapt yourself to your living space, and make the most of what you've got. In the kitchen, hang your frequently used tools on the walls, with an eye to both practicality and design. You might want to consider in- vesting in a rolling cart with several shelves to hold a wide variety of items, In other rooms, choose furniture that can serve more than one function whenever possible, A chest, of wicker or wood, can be used to store towels and bed linens, and works beautifully as a coffee table. In a small apartment, bookshelves can be used as room dividers, and if you are a bibliophile, you can double your shelf space by lining the shelves with books in two rows, library fashion, HOME ..

INSURE AGAINST RISING ENERGY COSTS A checklist of `musts' readies house for winter At the first cold snap in the air, you know winter isn't far off. And, though it may be weeks before the mercury plummets, now's the time to get your house and property ready for cold weather. To help you prepare for winter this year, here's a checklist to keep handy: O Bring in the plants be- fore a surprise frost nips and kills leaves. You can take cuttings from big 'geraniums, Swedish ivy or spider plants that have flourished outdoors all summer. ❑ Leave the mother plant outdoors and root the new shoots for next year's gar- den. Don't forget to dig up dahlia bulbs for basement storage and replanting in spring. O Clean patio furniture and barbecue grill before retiring them to the garage or tool shed for winter stor- age. Spray Grease relief all-purpose degreaser directly onto grill, skewers and other greasy soiled sur- faces; then wipe clean with a damp sponge. Use a wire brush to re- move any stubborn or burned -on residue. ❑ Wash beach towels and patio furniture covers. If sun- tan oil has left its mark, spray some all-purpose degreaser directly on the spots before washing as usual. ❑ Wash and air summer blankets, quilts and other lin- ens you plan to store. Let thein spend a few hours in the sun so they'll smell fresh and clean. ❑ Air winter clothes and clean out closets or attic Where they've been stored, to get the area ready for your summer wardrobes. Vacuum and wash bedroom closets before switching to next sea- son's outfits. ❑ Ready the kitchen for upcoming months of baking—degrease range and oven with all-purpose de- greaser; scrub cabinets in which food, dishes and uten- sils are kept; when replacing contents, organize them for easy access; remove food from freezer and clean inside thoroughly. You can prevent items from defrosting while you clean, if you put frozen food in a large bowl or sink with ice cube trays for insulation, and cover with a dish towel. O Winterize your linen closets, china cupboard and medicine cabinet by remov- ing all items—checking and discarding out-of-date pre- scriptions or never -used items—then scrubbing shelves, replacing liner paper and returning everything to a logical order. ❑ Check stockpile of logs, twigs and long matches to be sure you're ready for a cozy fire the first evening the tem- perature drops to a nippy level.

Electrical Appliances Seaforth What do you know about roofs? The day to day life of a roof is rough. Wind, rainstorms and dramatic temperature changes can age a roof prematurely. Snow, melting ice and exposure to 50,000 hours of direct sunlight over a lifetime contribute to this aging process. Knowing how to recognize early warning signs of roof problems will ensure your roof's good health for years to come. T _ F _ 1. Sunlight is rougher on roofing shingles than wind, rainstorms, snow or melting ice. T _ F _ 2. Shingles prevent water leakage. T _ F _ 3. Overlap is the process that causes water to drop from one shingle to another and finally to the ground. T _ F _ 4. Roofing is applied from bottom to top. T _ F _ 5. Metal strips that waterproof the joints of a roof at the chimney are called flashing. T _ F _ 6. Most roof shapes are variations on two main types, the gable roof and the hip roof. T _ F _ 7. Different types of roof styles can be combined in one building. T _ F _ 8. It is important to know what type of skeleton lies beneath a house before deciding on a roof. T_ F_ 9. T _ F _ 10. T_ F_ 11. T _ F _ 12. T _ F _ 13. T_ F_ 14. Roofs are most vulnerable to leaks where their slopes are broken by chimneys, dormers and valleys. Asphalt shingle roofs usually last more than 20 years depending upon the weight of the shingle. Asphalt shingles are easily applied and come with dabs of adhesive that seal the roof against high winds. The slope of your roof does not affect your choice of materials. The more nearly level the slope, the slower the run-off of water from the roof, the more highly waterproof the material must be.., Asphalt shingles are widely used on roofs with moderate to steep slopes because they are easy to install, come in a variety of weights, require little maintenance and are available in a wide range of colors. T _ F _ 15. Asphalt shingles are one of the least expensive yet effective roof coverings available. According to a roofing expert, the sooner you repair a damaged roof, the more money you'll save in the long run. The first symptoms of an aging roof are bare spots where granules have worn off, broken or curled shingle edges and missing tabs. If you do find signs of roof damage, call your local roofing contractor. He will give you a free inspection with no obligation. • 'on.11-gI 'anal -t/1 •anal -£1 asln3-Z1 anad,-1I •an11-01 •an11-6 •anal -g 'ankL-L •an1L-9 'ana.L-S ana,L-k •array-£ •ana,I,-z aruy-I :S2IBMS11d Zlflb For comfort be careful around hearth The fireplace exudes warmth in a very real sense, and is therefore a natural as an entertaining center. For centuries, families and their guests have gathered around the hearth of an evening, chatting and enjoying each other's company till bedtime. Today, with the re- surgence of interest in work- ing fireplaces, all of this is possible once again. In city apartments, as well as com- fortable country places, fireplaces that have been long bricked up are being opened and rendered usable, and fireplaces are being in- stalled for the first time where none were before. Of course, there are some rules to observe when using a fireplace, to ensure both the maximum in pleasure and the maximum in safety. First, make sure the flue is open before lighting fire and, once open, that it is not blocked up in any way. If it is open and clear, you should be able to feel a draught com- ing down it. When you build your fire, direct your logs toward the flue to allow for easy escape of smoke. Be sure to build your fire as far back in your fireplace as you can. Use twigs, if possi- ble, to start your fire. If not, wadded up newspaper around your logs will work just as well. To prevent sparks from fly- ing into the room, make sure to set up a screen in front of the fire. And make certain, if you I intend to do any cooking oyer your fireplace, even roasting marshmallows, that you are using natural firewood, and not one of the chemically ' formed logs. Then, sit back and enjoy yourself as a winter of warm and cozy nights stretches ahead. Mop bathroom spills quickly To make bathroom clean- ups easier, why not keep a sponge and your preferred cleanser close at hand at all times. Then, whenever mes- ses occur, they can be wiped up before they reach epic proportions. For hard to reach areas (i.e., a tub hidden behind slid- ing glass doors), a sponge on along handle will work, HOME CARE SECTION - 5B Condition your soil now with Canadian sphagnum peat moss It's fall ... time to sow a new lawn, repair an existing one, condition the soil around shrubs, in flower beds and gardens, and pre- pare evergreens for the win- ter. Canadian sphagnum peat moss mixed with the soil now will provide an excellent foundation for healthy lawns, plants and flowers. Why sphagnum peat moss? While peat is any par- tially decomposed vegeta- tion, sphagnum peat is peat from sphagnum moss. It is a clean, uniform prod- uct consisting of 95% organic material and considered the finest soil conditioner be- cause of its long lasting qual- ities and its unmatched water retention capacity. It will ab- sorb 12 to 20 times its weight in water, a factor which pro- motes healthy root develop- ment and actually reduces the amount of fertilizer needed. In clay soils, sphagnum peat moss loosens and aer- ates the soil allowing unham- pered root growth. In sandy soils where water and nutrients tend to leach through, leaving plants un- dernourished, sphagnum binds the soil, helping retain moisture and fertilizers. It is free of harmful salts, chemi- cals and insect life. Here are some tips on how to use sphagnum peat moss as you prepare lawns and gardens for the winter. In all cases moisten the peat moss thoroughly before using. New Lawns - If you are starting a new lawn spread a one -to two-inch layer of sphagnum peat over the area to be seeded and work it into the top six inches of soil. After seeding, top dress with IA" of peat moss to hold the seeds in place, keep them moist and protect them against temperature ex- tremes. Rejuvenating Old Lawns - Spike bare spots and cover with one-half inch of wet sphagnum peat; work it into the spiked holes with the back of a rake. Seed and wa- ter. Gardens - Spread a two - to three-inch layer of sphag- num peat moss over beds and around shrubs and work into the soil. This will reduce the need for frequent cultivation and watering, protect the soil and plant roots against ex- treme temperatures, and condition the soil for spring planting. Evergreens - Broadleaf evergreens such as azaleas, camellias, rhododendrons daphnes and heather are acid -loving plants. Forestab- lished plantings, mulch with, a two-inch coating of 'spl?ag-' num peat moss. Do' not:4 ork into the soil. If you are planting new evergreens, mix the soil thoroughly with the peat moss. Then loosen the root ball of the plant so that the soil and peat moss will be thoroughly blended. Finally, mulch with a two-inch layer of sphagnum peat. One further point should be emphasized about Cana- dian sphagnum peat moss. It is sold in compressed bales. When loosened, a bale yields nearly twice the vol• - ume of material. Thus, one six foot compressed bale of sphagnum peat is equal to six.. 50 -pound bags of other peats. Some no -wall problem solvers What can drive you mad when decorating? Usually it's a wall in the wrong place—or a wall that's sim- ply not there. When you need a wall and don't have one, you can make one with room divider bookcases, etageres or fold- , ing screens. A private study area can be set up in a bedroom by plac- ing the desk at right angles to the wall and hanging a bulle- tin board from hooks in the ceiling. A dressing room nook can be arranged by use of a fold- ing screen to surround a dressing table. If the screen is sturdy enough, a full-length mirror can be hung on one panel. Where there's a living room and no dining room, create a dining area behind the sofa. The table can dou- ble as a sofa table when you're not eating at it.

Choose a good new roof for years of wear Having trouble with your roof? If your house is more than 15 years old, your an- swer is probably yes. If you are thinking of buy- ing a new roof, or simply re- pairing the old one, here are some of the choices you can make in coming to the right decision for your needs. First of all, what does the roof do? Its basic function, of course, is to protect the house and its contents from rain, hail, snow, sleet, wind, and the heat of the sun. It must remain water -tight at all times. It should offer protec- tion against fire. Since more than 85% of all roofs on houses throughout the U.S.A. are now covered with asphalt shingles, this ar- ticle will confine itself to a discussion of asphalt shingles only: the different types, what each type offers, and which is best for you. (Other materials, such as slate, cedar, etc., may be discussed with your contractor.) Shingles are made in dif- ferent weights, with refer- ence often made to standard shingles and heavyweight shingles. In roofing language, weight is measured in terms of a square covering 10 x 10 feet, or 100 square feet over- all. MASSIVE, HEAVYWEIGHT asphalt shingles, such as GAF Timberline, feature an accented shadowline, an irregular pattern, and the rugged appearance so pleas- ing to the eye. Standard shingles weigh approximately 240 pounds per square. In constrast,, heavyweig.ii shingles, ,Jr example, weigh considerably more, approximately 300 pounds per square. Weight and longevity go together. Standard shingles, in normal circumstances, can be expected to have a service life of approximately 15 years. Heavyweight shin- gles, on the other hand, can be expected to last up to 25 years. Shingles differ in appear- ance as well as weight. The standard self-sealing shingle features a classic 3 -tab design which will give the roof of your house a long, sweeping appearance. This is especially pleasing in ranch - style homes. In comparison, Timberline shingles, which are massive heavyweights in appearance, resemble traditional wood shingles. These shingles are especially effective in de- signs such as Tudors, moderns, Dutch Colonials, split levels, etc., in which an accented shadowline, an ir- regular roof pattern, and a rugged appearance call atten- tion to height rather than width in the architectural de- sign. A primary consideration in the choice of a roof is color. Asphalt shingles offer an ex- tremely wide range of colors and thereby enable the home -owner to select a per- fect complement to his siding color as well as that of the surrounding environment. The owner of a brick home, for example, can choose a traditional white or green for contrast, or red or brown in a complementary shade. Timberline shingles are of- fered in six popular earth - tone blends. The Weathered Wood Blend and the Slate Blend are shades of grey and offer a cool appearance. The Cedar and Redwood Blends are in the brown family and provide a warmer, more vi- brant look. In addition to substantial weight and good looks, as- phalt shingles offer protec- tion against fire and wind. GAF Timberline and Stan- dard self-sealing shingles carry the Underwriters' Laboratories Class C Fire and Wind Resistant label. Class C refers to fire .resis- tance, the ability of the shingle to resist being ignited by sparks and embers, due to its asphalt construction and mineral granule surface. Wind resistance comes from the self-sealing feature of GAF asphalt shingles. A strong adhesive, activated by the sun's heat, seals each shingle down tightly, creat- ing what is, in effect, a one- piece roof. The final consideration in purchasing a roof for your home is the warranty you will get with your new roof. Reputable manufacturers, such as GAF, the largest manufacturer of shingles in the U.S.A., provide warran- ties against manufacturing defects and wind damage, ranging up to 25 years. It's a good feeling to know that one of the major pur- chases of a lifetime will be covered by such a warranty when you select your new roof. For a free copy of an in- formative booklet which will be of great help in choosing your new roof, write for "So You're Thinking of Roofing ." to the Building Materi- als Group, GAF Corpora- tion, 140 W. 51 Street, New York, N.Y. 10020.

Silver gleams on the buffet table, and it looks like it's going to be the prettiest party you ever had. If only you didn't have to think about all those pots and, pans waiting to be scrubbed, you could enjoy the party, too! The "kitchen blues" have plagued women for genera- tions (recently, men have also gotten a taste of clean-up woes). And even in this enlightened age, when al- most half the women in America are in the labor force—and presumably have better things to do in their spare time than wield a dish- cloth and scrub brush— bookstores and libraries still offer weighty references on the "cleaning arts." Long ago, "recipes" for the removal of food and stains from metal were passed from one generation of women to another. For dark stains caused by eggs in aluminum, they cooked acid foods such as rhubarb or tomatoes—a method that could be used only in the summer! Buttermilk was the ac- cepted antidote for corrosion in copper pots, which often were also scrubbed with a mixture of flour, salt, lemon juice and ammonia. Cast iron always presented problems i1 it wasn't thoroughly dried—and new brides were cautioned never to store iron utensils with the covers on, lest moisture and rust form inside.

For basic protection, ac- cording to Honeywell, a smoke detector should be placed between each sleep- ing area and the rest of the house. This might be at the head of the stairway leading to bedrooms in a two-story house, or in a hallway of a ranch house, apartment or mobile home. A multi-level home should be equipped with a smoke de- tector on each additional level—including the basement—for the minimum of recommended protection. The best fire -safety mea- sure is to add detectors to liv- ing and family rooms, as well as workshops, utility and furnace rooms. As a final safety measure, put one in every smoker's bedroom. The unit is attached to wall or ceiling with the screws and anchors provided. Next the battery is connected and clipped into the detector. When the cover is snapped on the detector is set to give you an 85 -decibel warning of the earliest stages of a fire. ENTERTAINING GUESTS today needn't mean lots of after -the -party drudgery.

Louver doors . Improve any room If high costs are forcing you to think twice about ex- pensive remodeling projects, like beautifying a room—. reconsider. You can improve the appearance of virtually any room inexpensively with louver doors. For that closet you've al- ways been meaning to do something about, consider the installation of folding or sliding wood louver doors as a do-it-yourself project. They are available at local home centers or building supply stores in stock sizes and come with special tracks and hardware for easy installa- tion and operation. A skilled handyman ought to be able to install them in a matter of hours. Wood louver doors are ap- propriate for virtually any interior design from Colonial to modern, because of their ' distinctive "textured" ap- pearance, which adds dimen- sion to otherwise flat wall surfaces, Besides their good looks, louver doors have a number of practical advantages for closets. Since they either fold back against each other, or slide open and closed, they can be used in areas with lit- tle floor clearanr e The louvers also permit the free flow of air to prevent ' mildew and keep clothes fresh. Sliding or folding louver doors come either full lou- vered or with louvers in the top half and solid wood panels in the bottom half. They can be painted to match or contrast with the room colors, or simply stained or varnished to high- light the rich, natural grain of the wood.

That's liberation—and that's what's making today's parties a lot more fun and a lot less work. They're parties even a hostess can enjoy! Manage with efficient time Whether you are employed outside the home, active in community groups, or man- aging a busy household, your time is too precious to waste on unnecessary or inefficient tasks, With a little pre -planning, you can organize your daily and weekly chores so there is more time to play with the children, read a good book or just plain relax. Here are some time - efficient tips to help you shave hours from your cur- rent schedule: • Do more than one thing at a time. While watching television, you could mend or iron clothes. Or, do the dinner dishes while talking on the phone to a friend or relative. When making a roast din- ner, whip up the children's sandwiches and freeze them for a week's worth of school lunches. • Cook double the amount. Yours may be a fam- ily of four, but cook for eight when you are preparing a casserole, roast or meals with sauces (such as spaghetti, chili or coq au vin). You can serve one-half the amount that night and freeze leftovers for a tasty ready - to -go dinner. ' • Clean as you go. Don't let spills, splatters or smudges accumulate— they'll only be harder to clean later. • Keep a bottle of spray cleaner in the kitchen, bathroom, laun- ready to spray omany`soiled washable surface; then wipe clean the plastic, metal, vinyl or painted surfaces with a clean cloth or paper towel. • Rotate your cleaning schedule. Assign one room a week to a thorough, top -to - bottom cleaning; tackle the other rooms as you would normally on a weekly schedule. This means that once every six weeks or so your rooms have been given a fall or spring cleaning. • • Enlist help. Even •t 4 smallest child can learn re+ ;ponsibility and help cut down on your daily chores. Start when they're young, teaching them to put away dry room and playroom, , toys and hang up jackets.

Another alternative is to rake, bag and haul away the leaves before mowing. This means still another round of raking, bagging and hauling, since with side discharge mowers the long clippings stay on top of the lawn and turn an unsightly brown while tending to stunt new growth. In both cases, even if your mower has an attached bag, the messy chore, remains of emptying the bag and dispos- ing of the grass clippings or leaves. With its enclosed mower deck and multi -pitched blade, the Mulching Mower cuts and re -cuts the grass and at the same time chops a dry leaf cover into a fine mulch which is then blown down into the lawn.

From adding a long put -off game room to routine tasks like putting up storm win-' dows, handymen should first clean up their own work- shops or toolbenches in order to efficiently tackle home improvement jobs. For example, clearing away clutter in the shop area provides an open, non - confining space in which to work. Organizing tools keeps equipment within easy reach and helps avoid unnecessary delays like searching for the #10 wrench last used to tighten a bicycle wheel, To help the man of the house gear up for fall home ,improvement, the handy- man's good friend offers these suggestions to get hammering in a hurry: • Sort screws, nails and tacks according to size into clear glass jars and attach to corresponding lids, which have already been nailed to I an overhead shelf, for quick i and easy selection of the right piece. • Organize various -sized wrenches, pliers, saws and paintbrushes on a pegboard and outline each item so that tools can easily be returned to the right spot on the board. • Use file cabinets with deep, long drawers to store drill bits, extension cords, hammers, soldering irons, sandpaper sheets, files and caulking guns. Drop in plas- tic drawer organizers to hold smaller items like fuses, soc- kets and washers. • Eliminate an unneces- sary assortment of cleaning aids by stocking one multi- purpose cleaner. Use its non -scratch formula to safely clean and effectively polish storm windows, bath- room fixtures, aluminum and chrome surfaces. The gentle feldspar and soap formula leaves a protec- tive lubricating film that helps retard rust, and it can even be used to prepare wood surfaces before paint- ing for a smooth finish. • Install shelves above the work space to keep paint cans, putty, oil cans and power tools up and away, yet always within easy reach. • Get organized in the ga- rage and toolshed, too. When autumn leaves begin to fall, use heavy-duty wall racks to keep rakes close at hand and to hang up shovels, bicycles and even winter's sleds and toboggans.

If you drive to work, do you park your car and let the engine run until it's time to go home? Of course not. You would be wasting gasoline and, in turn, wasting money. Well, if you don't dial down your thermostat at night when you're sleeping or when no one is at home dur- ing the day, you are in effect letting your engine run. After all, why use expensive fuel to heat/cool an empty home, apartment or business estab- lishment? It is a fact. Dialing down your thermostat during periods of inactivity in the home saves energy and money. If a family were to dial down their thermostat ten degrees at night from 10 p.m. to six a,m, (the sleeping hours), they could save from 10 to 20 percent of their heat- ing fuel depending on what area of the United States they live in. When the cost of energy began to skyrocket a few years ago, many of us started to dial down, but we soon learned there wee problems in doing so. First of all, dialing down was a very easy thing to forget. When we did re- member, we were waking to a cold house, and after a few cold December or January mornings dialing down did not seem to be a very com- fortable way to save energy. This is not the case any- more, because now there are devices available that dial the thermostat down and back up again automatically, making it easy to cut those home heating bills. There are a number of these set back devices on the market today, and they all operate on the principle of using a timer to dial the ther- mostat up or down automati- cally. Their cost ranges from $10 to $150 depending on what particular functions they per- form. For example, some are for heating only while others save on both heating and cooling. SOME SET BACK DEVICES like the Thermotimer are very easy to install. It can be installed in four easy steps. Since it mechanically couples to existing round ther- mostats, there is no wiring necessary. Basically, there are three types of automatic set back units on the market. The first is simply a replacement thermostat with a timer for set back capabilities. This type is the most ex- pensive because you are pay- ing for a new thermostat. Un- less you absolutely need a new thermostat, you would be spending more money than you have to, and you would probably need a trained serviceman to install it for you. The next type ,is called "Foolers." They function by heating the air around the thermostat. They plug into an A.C. outlet and have a wire leading to a heating element below the thermostat. Although they are slightly less expensive, you must consider whether you want an unsightly cord along the wall from the plug to the thermostat, and a heating element in an unprotected area of the home. Foolers also distort the thermostat's temperature reading. The third type of unit is that which is designed to work with your existing thermostat and is probably your best buy. The Ther- motimer, . , is a good example. It is relatively low in cost and will more than pay for itself the first heating sea- son. It is powered by a bat- tery and contains a timer and control for indicating what the temperature change is to be. It fits almost all round -type thermostats, and mechani- cally attaches to the thermos- tat so there is no electrical rewiring necessary. You can install it yourself. Once set, you can forget it, because it will dial up and down automatically. It works with both heating and air conditioning, and has an op- tional 4 -cycle time dial. This allows you to set it to dial the thermostat up or down twice each day: say, during the sleeping hours and when you are at work, ap- proximately doubling the savings you normally would have with a single set back. And most important, it does what it's supposed to: save energy. There are a number of other set back de- vices that will work with your present thermostat,however, unless you are thoroughly acquainted with electrical circuitry, it is best to select one that mechanically at- taches to the thermostat. Naturally, weather in a given area can vary the sav- ings figures to some extent. But, in any case, dialing down the thermostat is a pro- ven method of saving energy and thus saving money. And, automatic set back devices such as the Ther- motimer make it easy to save dollars, not just pennies. til ''I 1Ij 13311041, ISI@1gmh. , l �Ily\�\ ...Interior and Exterior Home Renovations ...AII types of home siding ...

In winter, ivy growing on shade on the house to keep it wind -exposed walls serves as cool and comfortable during a natural insulator against the summer, Even in modern houses homeowners can create their own energy-saving mini -cli- mate which will help save money and energy, and will enhance the value of the property. Proper landscaping with trees, bushes, shrubs, ever- greens and other plantings requires just good common sense and a little professional advice from a local nursery garden center or landscape firm. Some mail order nurs- ery catalogs give excellent advice on this subject. Shade trees, for example, are among nature's most effi- cient climate controllers. In the summer, their big leafy umbrellas provide a cooling shade in or around a house. They also give off cooling vapor through transpiration. In winter, they drop their leaves and allow the warming effects of the sun to come through. Shade trees planted on the west and south sides of a house are most effective. chilling winds and reduces heat loss from inside. In seasons when tempera- tures are low, a windbreak of evergreens on the north and west sides of a house serves to break up cold winds. It takes twice as much fuel to heat a house at an outside temperature of 32 -degrees F. with a wind of 12 miles per hour as it does for the same temperature with wind at three miles per hour, So a windbreak of trees which can diminish the impact of a win- ter wind is going to make a substantial difference in the amount of heating energy re- quired. Reliable tests have shown this difference can be greater than a 30% economy in the amount of heating fuel needed. These windbreaks are gen- erally best located on the north and west sides of a house—the windward side, A double or triple row of trees will achieve the greatest reductions in wind-chill and the accompanying use of heating energy. The trees will do their best job if they are growing a dis- tance from the house that is equal to about 11/2 to 21/2 times the height of the struc- ture they are protecting. (For example, if the building is 20 feet high, the windbreak would be 30 to 50 feet away from it.) Smart planting to create an energy-saving "minicli- mate" means the furnace and the air conditioner don't have to work so hard, and that means a lot to the family bud- get. TREES CAN SAVE WINTER FUEL, COSTS ... It takes twice as much fuel to heat a house at an outside tem- perature of 32 degrees with a wind of 12 miles an hour, as it does for the same temperature with a wind of only three miles an hour. A barrier of evergreens that cuts the force of the wind makes a substantial difference in heating energy required. Tests reported by the Ameri- can Association of Nurserymen show the difference can he greater than 30 percent with trees properly placed as shown here on the north and west sides of the property.

MITCHELL, ONTARIO 345-8437 R Best doesn't have to be expensive Since your home is an in- vestment in living as well as savings, it won't pay divi- dends if neglected. Properly maintained and improved, it will pay a high yield in corn - fort and convenience and in the avoidance of costly repair bills caused by extended ne- glect. Your home also represents a substantial stake in the local community. In general, home improvements tend to raise neighborhood stan- dards and property values. If handy with tools and ex- perienced in carpentry, homeowners can save money by doing many jobs them- selves. Andersen Corpora- tion of Bayport, Minn. sug- gests that when you buy ma- terials, it pays not to skimp. The leading manufacturer of windows and gliding doors adds that good materials are not necessarily the most ex- pensive. What you need, says An- dersen, are products that look good, are well -made, easy to take care of and last a long time. One of the more popular do-it-yourself projects these Carpet capers dogs will do! In most cases, dogs and new carpeting just do not go together. Sad but true, dogs shed; dogs get muddy feet; dogs trail greasy bones around. To keep your dog off your brand new carpet is not all that easy. You can't just say to him, "Now don't go near the broadloom." To keep him in his own safe environment -while at the same time allowing him to be one of the family—place a baby gate across the entrance to the newly decorated room. Small dogs will be able to see through the gate; 'large dogs will be able to see over the gate and will have to be admonished the first several times they jump over it. Be sure to keep his toys with him in his confinement. And when he is let out to join you, bring out a couple of toys for him to play with. Be sure and return them when you put the dog behind the gate for the night. Sooner or later, thatnew carpet will get its first stain. Then it's up to you whether to let your dog roam at will. Little things add to decor It's the little things in life that count and, very often, the same thing holds true in the sphere of home decorat- ing. It's those small touches, often whimsical, often im- pulsive, the knick-knacks that grace your shelves and tables, the paintings and posters that hang on your walls, that truly personalize your home and make it an ex- tension of you. You may want to project different parts of your per- sonality in different rooms. The kitchen, often a bright and cheery room, can be- come, especially for the per- son who loves to cook, a fa- vorite room, and the first place where he or she will begin to accessorize and per- sonalize. Hang things on the walls. Putting up a pegboard is an attractive way of displaying everything neatly, and it is eminently functional as well. Your favorite cooking tools, cookie cutters and decora- tive pot holders as well as pots and pans, can spice up your kitchen and become an integral part of your decor. days involves window re- placement. It should be a rel- atively simple job for an ex- perienced handyman. When an old window is removed, there's a rough opening to fill, just as in new construction. In many cases, stock -sized windows can be purchased to fit the opening from local building supply dealers. If the new windows don't fit the opening, some carpen- try will be required. Ander- sen, which manufactures vinyl sheathed Perma-Shield windows and gliding doors, points out that the best re- placement window is the best window you can buy because they are likely to be around for a good many years. Quality windows, such as • Perma-Shield windows, have a rigid vinyl flange with pre -drilled holes to simplify nailing. Once the window is set in place, it is nailed in one corner, squared and leveled before the rest of the nails are driven. Besides making nailing easier, the vinyl flange elimi- nates the need for separate metal flashing to keep out weather. Once the frame is secure, gaps around it are filled in with siding or shin- gles. A booklet detailing how to install windows is available free by writing the Andersen Corporation, Dept, DYW, Bayport, Minn. 55003. HOME CARE SECTION — 11B How to calculate amount of insulation coverage needed You know where you want to install insulation. You've decided what "R" number to select. Now, how much, should you order to cover the job? According to the Insulation Center, to decide how much insula- tion you need to cover a ceil- ing, wall or floor, multiply the total area (without deduc- ting for joists or studs) by .90 if framing members are 16" on center. If framing members are 24" on center, multiply by .94, Here's a simple example: 1,000 square feet of ceiling area with joists spaced 16" on center requires 900 square feet of insulation (1,000 sq. ft. x .90 = 900 sq. ft.). A roll of blanket insulation measuring 15" wide by 32' long provides 40 square feet of coverage. You need 23 rolls to complete the job.

Meaning!ess with windows ws R and U values are given as an indication of a material's ability to retard or conduct the flow of heat . so they're Valuable in helping the buyer know how effec- tive the material will he in conserving energy. But when it comes to win- dows, they don't mean any- thing, because they're sel- dom based on common criteria. Some windows are rated for conductive U values , . a measure of how fast or slow heat travels directly through the glass and frame materials used in the window. Others show the conductive U value for the glass only. In addition to conductive U values. windows, unlike a single -component product such as mineral wool ceiling insulation, have an infiltra- tion U value. This is a mea- sure of the heat flow through the cracks between the sev- eral component parts. For some windows, this is given. For others, it is not. Yet other windows are rated with a composite U value, which is the total of the combined conductive and infiltration U values. Yet another factor about windows which isn't a factor in materials like batt insula- tion, is the size of the window tested for the U or R values. If the window has double insulating glass, the U value of the glass alone is as low as 0.56. But the frame may have a U value as high as 1.00. These two factors must be considered in combination to determine the conductive U value of the window. If the window tested is small, the frame represents a larger percent of the total window area than it does in a very large window. So even if two windows give U values representing both infiltration and conduction, you can't compare their energy effi- ciency unless you know whether both windows tested were the same size. One way to use U or R val- ues to compare different windows is to have complete, independent test laboratory reports for both windows. You must check to sec that all criteria, including condi- tions of the test itself (static or dynamic air pressure, etc.), are identical. Unless you are an architect involved in a project requir- ing 6(X) windows, it's unlikely that you can get test reports which are comparable, So what do you do? If you want to make your windows energy efficient, you are going to have to know the different ways win- dows waste energy, so you can identify what product you need. If you have relatively good, air -tight windows, you probably need storm win- dows. If your prime window is deteriorated, but you have good storm windows, you need a new prime window. If you have worn-out win- dows and no storms, you need a "thermalized" re• placement window. Once you can identify your window energy problem and know the remedy, you have to he knowledgeable about the different degrees of qual- ity in the different competi- tive products available for your need, BEAT THE HEAT Take the heat out of the kitchen by installing an exhaust fan in a convenient window. It'll do double duty by helping to keep the rest of the house aired out. aY V00dd Available at SOFAS £r CHAIRS till„r I raditirntal lutu' lti!Irny hack '.IyII'.
