Another milestone in Living Comfort
Recent statistics show that gas fuel serves the immense total of
52,000,000 persons in the United States, through almost nine million stoves,
3,400,000 water heaters, 4,400,000 space heaters and several hundred
thousand central heating systems.
The great increase in household gas use in the future will be in these
central heating systems. Its development in this direction has barely
begun, and since 1919 is said to have gained 2,000 per cent.
The evolution of gas is another milestone on the road leading to greater
living comfort.

Printed Gowns
The printed gown has come to stay at least for another season. Not only in
silks, as was the case last year, is it in the ascendant, but in transparent
velvets and more interesting still in woolen and rayon mixtures is the print
displaying continued and approved liveliness.
