Show with Mai Jones Lanny Rees is back in town; he went to the hospital, and now he is sitting on a round donut pillow, but he feels better. Right, Lanny? Maud and Emery Hunt are glad to be home. One thing, the lights and water are in good shape. Its good to see them around town. Judy Davis is still on her trip east; she is to be home on the 8th. I was trying to watch channel 5 last night and I thought I was in a plane. I heard the pilot call the Farmington airport. This T.V. is something. To fix it would cost about $600, or less. I always thought cigarettes had no tax, that the tax was included in the price, jusi like gasoline. If I am wrong will someone call me? I dont charge tax. But it is being done. . ASDF Corp. Bluff Stuff Mr. Bob Evans, wife Norma and son Bob, played sweet music at the Twin Rock Dance Hall at Bluff Friday and Saturday; and they will also be in the neighborhood this weekend. Mr. Evans and wife plan on settling in the Hat, so we will have a good band for anyone who wants or needs one. Just call me? Ron Big had a good crowd at his dance over the weekend.

(Come see us). But bring the cotton for your ears. I wish that most people would start thinking of others. Its the greedy ones that always lose out at the end. We all have bad points, but most of us have a lot of good. But we are afraid of what others may say about us if we were to help someone, or be nice to someone.

C lemma and Tammy Arthur are back after a whirlwind tour to the East with the local high school theatre groups. They attended numerous shows and visited museums and other in- stitutions of culture but C lem- ma said she much preferred Bluffs simple lifestyle. There will be a pot luck dinner for all Bluff Senior Citizens on July 13 in the L.D.S. Church at 5:30.

In last weeks softball action, the women handily defeated White Mesa 30 to 4, while the two Bluffs mens teams fought each other to the wire with the Muff Divers defeating the River Rats 13 to 11. Three members of the Utah Bicentennial Commission visited the area and were quite pleased with the progress of our new park which they helped fund. It was good to see such a large turnout for the sewer and incorporation meeting. It is public awareness and participation which helps keep this democracy of ours alive and changing for what wek hope will be the better. Thats it for now. Weather energy-efficienc- conditioner? for an air Stopping Mrst, compare energy-efficiency Energy-efficienc- y is an important factor to consider in selecting a refrigeration room air conditioner. Different models use different amounts of electricity to do the same job. The most efficient models operate on about half the power required by less efficient models to do the same amount of cooling. Until recently, one had to know a lot about air conditioners to know the difference. Fortunately, there is now an easy, accurate way for you to compare the y of units before buying. By determining each models Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER), you can compare the amount of electricity the different units consume. The EER rating system is recognized industry-wide- , and heres how it works: energy-efficienc- Comparing efficiency U.S. Department of Commerce Energy Guide Labels are now found on most new models of room air conditioners. As shown in the illustration at top, the labels show: 1. the cooling capacity of the unit in British thermal units (8,000 Btus in the example); the EER rating (EER 9.3); and the EER range for units of about the same cooling capacity (EER 5.4 EER 9.9). The higher the EER rating, the greater the energy efficiency. For example, a unit rated at EER 9.3 costs about a third less to operate than a unit with the same Btu cooling capacity but rated at EER 6. models often cost a little more initially because their cooling mechanisms are usually larger and heavier. Their lower operating cost, however, will usually more than offset their higher original cost over the life of the unit. 2. 3. Energy-efficie- Your dealer will calculate the EER of any unit for you.

You would divide 7,000 by 750: nt Computing the EER If a unit does not carry the guide label described above, its EER rating can be computed. You need to know its cooling capacity (Btus per hour), and the number of watts of electricity needed to operate it. Both these figures usually are printed on the units back panel. To find the EER, simply divide the Btus by the wattage: rather not figure the EER yourself, your dealer will be happy to compute it for you. Dont hesitate to ask him; its your money at stake. Dont buy a unit larger or smaller than you need.
