In an effort to assist it* cus-
tomers to protect their health,
the gas company has enlisted
doctors, public health authori-
ties and others in the educa-
tional program. They are ad-
vocating proper ventilation and
uniform temperatures through-
out the home in every room.
i A booklet entitled “America’*
I Public Health Enemy Number
One,” gives vital facts on
heating.
Ara you a “huddler”? This'
question ha* become of prime
importance with the coming of
cold weather. It is being an-
swered in an educational cam-
paign by the gas company to
instruct gas customers in pro-
per methods of heating and
ventilating their home* to pro-
tect their health.
Huddling is described as the
habit of families to huddle in
one or two rooms around small
heaters with the doors and
windows tightly closed during
the cold weather, and it has be-
come prevalent during the re-
cent depression. Gas company
advertising appearing in this
paper shows the dangers of
huddling and gives advice on
heating with a view of protect-
ing customers from winter
colds and i^imihr illnesses, many
of which may be attributed to
improperly heated homes.
The latest advertisement in
the series states that “fifty per
cent of all disabling diseases
start with a common cold. Thus
the cold germ becomes Amer-
ica’s public health enemy num-
ber one.” The hibernating hab-
it called huddling is said by
doctors to be contrary to all
rules of good health. Sitting
in a stuffy, overheated room I
and then passing from this hot
room into a cold hallway or an ’
unheated room is said to be an
invitation for the cold germs
to attack.
