Show Moving Air Best, Blood Tests Show "Blood pressure Is one of the most Important gauges of the effects of air conditions on the body," says a booklet book-let on "Air Motion In Home Cooling and Home Heating," which has Just been Issued by the Holland Institute of Thermology of Holland, Mlcb. Referring to blood pressure tests mode at the research laboratory of the U. Sk Bureau of Mines at Pittsburgh, the bulletin shows that, with air mov. Ing at a sustained velocity over the body, the effects of beat ore not nearly near-ly as severe as when the air Is still. Other similar tests show that air motion mo-tion hat a beneficial effect npon pulse rate and Internal body temperature, as well as bbpod pressure. After showing how air motion promotes pro-motes summer time comfort, the booklet book-let describes several methods by which It can be used for Its cooling effect In the home. Among these are the "vaporalre" "va-poralre" and "super-circulating" heating heat-ing systems In which electrified air propellers are installed to keep cooling breeces moving through the rooms of the bouse. Finally, the new bulletin, which may be obtained by request to thp Holland Institute of Thermology of Holland, Mich, shows how these propellers increase in-crease heating efficiency, and lower fuel costs during cold weather. Enliven the Party When we are entertaining friends on a sweltering summer evening, according accord-ing to the Holland Institute of Thermology Ther-mology of Holland, Mich, all we need do to get relief from the heat for the party is to torn on a switch In the kitchen, connected with the electrified air propeller In the most modern type of warm air circulating plant. This will Immediately set in motion air currents cur-rents through the rooms which will produce a comfort cooling effect equlv- -alent to a tempera rare drop of several degrees, Miss Norma Olson and the Misses Miss-es Doris and Anna Masters returned retur-ned the last week from a motor Urip through the Northwest. They visited with Miss Bertha and Bessie Be-ssie Kepple at Bremerton Wash. |
