Dr. Eugene Lyman Fisk. medical director c f the Life Extension Institute, taes the position that electric fans are often needed even more in wln-! wln-! ter than in summer. In a current bullet. c of the Institute issued to all members taking periodic health tests he says "The business man should have his office prop-i prop-i erly ventilated and heated and not a poor irrlta- ' tlon of a Turkish bath. He should not let the temperature run above 70 degrees, and II there Is any deficiency in the provisions for automatic I ventilation, as there ucur lly is. he should start an j electric fan to keep 'be air moving. I think 11 is often more needed lv winter than In summer, since 1 In winter closed doors and windows often re5Ult -1 In humid or stagnant ir. ' Confining the use of electric fans to the hot days of summer Is largelj n matter of sheer k custom. The public should be educated to use them in winter as woll. Still air. like a still pool, is always stagnant, regardless of the temperature I or the season. " |
