Remember, that besides meeting costs of running any business, a service com-- , pany must pay a technician to make calls and also maintain special repair equipment and vehicles. MUCH OF the expense of maintaining a repair service comes from the cost of the repair truck or van used to make the call. These vehicles not only must be purchased or leased, but also must be serviced and insured. The cost of fuel is another major expense, as is the duplication of parts and equipment that cians must bring with them on their service calls. Each repair vehicle must carry a supply of tools, replacement parts and testing ewuipment. The repair technicians who make service calls are specially trained and usually have years of experience in their particular field.

Balancing Resistance and Endurance Lean muscles use energy even at rest, but body fat uses very little energy. Muscle tone decreases after several years without exercise. If body weight remains the same, fat may have replaced muscle mass and a persons energy requirement at rest may be reduced significantly. If a person continues to consume the same amount of food without exercise, the excess calories will be converted to fat. A solution is an exercise program that involves working muscles and against resistance. Walking up stairs, sit-uother exercises put demand on muscles, build muscle tone and help use up the excess calories. THE COLD War Combatting colds successfully can be helped by raising room humidity according to Canadian researchers. Studies of schools over a ten year period revealed that dry indoor air may be a factor in increased colds during times when outdoor temperatures drop.
