That can mean more than $300 per year spent to heat or cool the great outdoors, said Marilyn Noyes, Utah State University s'& Jy u 't hf ib family resource management specialist. The problem is that glass is an excellent conductor of heat. In the summer, the blistering sun shines through the glass and causes a heat buildup in the home, Mrs. Noyes said., That,, in turn, requires more air condition-5- ; ing to keep the house cool and uses extra energy.

This is due to a low daily attendance. It is not cost effective to pay for food and labor on a daily basis for just a fey, individuals. It has been The cost of operating the meal site has been very slight. It is estimated that the preparation of the meal costs $1.50. One paid individual is the meal site manager.

Therefore, this is the reason for the site being closed. Transportation will be provided at the Heritage Center in Clearfield for meals and activities to all interested senior citizens in Layton. It is hoped that all Layton seniors will participate at the Heritage Center. BENEFITS to the senior citizens who use the meal site has been immeasurable. Besides getting a balanced meal each day, the people enjoy getting out of their house, meeting socially with other people and helping each THE 15 to 30 Layton residents who regularly visit the Layton Meal Site, located in the Layton Eagles building, call the notice impersonal, uncaring and unjus- other. 4 Some comments were, Layton people wont go to It takes too Clearfield. much time to travel to Clearfield.

They furnish nearly 85 meals per day but this includes the homebound deliveries. Lay-to- n residents feel they serve nearly as many at their site as Clearfield does at the Heri- tage Center if the homebound meals are excluded. Layton senior citizens claim the cost of maintaining and operating the Clearfield and Bountiful centers are much higher than the cost of operating the Layton site. CLEARFIELD has three vehicles they use to pick up people and to deliver food. If Layton had one vehicle, the senior citizens believe they could increase their daily attendance to 30, the number needed to keep the center center. Until this can be accomplished, Laytons senior citizens who use the meal site are asking all senior citizens of Layton, Layton government officials and all citizens to contact the county council on aging to protest the closing of their meal site. THOSE ORGANIZATIONS and individuals who feel the site should be left open should call or write to the Davis County Senior Citizens Coun- cil on Aging, Davis County Courthouse, Farmington. or to Leon Povey, director of the State Aging Council at 150 West North Temple, Salt Lake City, ding Utah windows to allow cool air come inside, Mrs. Noyes suggested. 84025 FOR MORE information on how to save energy m your home, contact your local county extension office.
