Throughout your home, light-conditioning is a factor which
contributes immeasurably toward the pleasure and comfort of
your entire family. The question of how much light is needed for proper
seeing is not a matter of guess-work. Scientists have proved that you can-
not go below certain definite amounts of light without serious danger of
eye-strain and fatigue.
Light-conditioning means lighting of the proper quality and intensity
for the various seeing tasks. Check the lighting in j our home tr day to see
that you are getting the full benefit of the lighting facilities you have.
Light bulbs visible to the eye in overhead fixtures should be shielded to
prevent glare, discomfort and eye-strain. Reflector bowls of portable study
lamps should be kept free of dust. Inn fleeting surfaces of shades
should be white and the shade wide
to cover the entire "seeing-task with-
out casting direct light into the eye.
Proper size bulb should he used,
which, for the average study lamp, is
150 watts.
