supervisor of statewide library
projects under PA, was a
visitor Krlday at tho Klamath
county library. She Btated she
is greatly satisfied with this type
of work being done by county
libraries and that she was glad
to find the library here using
WPA helpers to such good ad
vantage. The supervisor said that it was
quite evident that the Klamath
county library does not have suf
ficient funds for an adequate
staff and as long as WPA is in
existence her organization is glad
to bo of help. She pointed out,
however, that as long as tbe
WPA is an emergency measure it
is Impossible to count on its be
ing permanent and that this
type of work done by the women
necessarily takes the nature of
odd Jobs. Howover, tho typo of
work being done by the library
will presuppose a much larger
staff than tbe library has, she
stated.
Mis Mulheron discussed with
Mary McComb. the librarian, the
possibility of WPA assistance for
some of the larger branch 11'
braries In tbe county and ex
pressed her willingness to keep
such a project In mind If there
are satisfactory certifications In
these districts.

"The federal government, too,

through the minimum construc

In September 27 building per

35 permits were Issued totaling
$57,650, It waa ahown.
Permit were Issued for the
following purpose: garages, 2,

A year ago, for tbe aame month
five new homes were also put un

pared with $27,300 for the five
new 1938 homes. Permit total
were upped a year ago when busi
ness house alteration totaled
$33,640 a compared to $1890 for
September, 1938.
ON WEAK SPOTS
Because escaping heat follow
the line of least resistance, the
home builder must carefully elim
inate weak spots In Insulation
continuity.
Weak spots In the insulation
area serve a sieve for beat, nrnk
ing the remaining Insulation prac
tically valueless, they report.
Crucial point In the malnten
ance of insulation continuity are
the ceiling edges of the Installa
tion. If the Insulation Is permit'
ted to creep or "settle," the cell
ing edge will be an open avenue
for escaping heat.
By nailing Insulation boards
of the "colorkote" type securely
to walls and ceilings, positive pro
tection against weak spots can be
obtained, it is said.
OF DJIilGEf! ZONES
From tbe butcher to the baker
to the modern candlestock-maker,
our lives are affected by measur
ing instruments. Among the new
est of the measuring tools la a
light meter, an instrument ao
small that It can be slipped Into
a men's vest pocket.
It Is used to measure light at
school desks, easy chairs tn the
home or at the factory bench.
When light falls on the light
sensitive cell of the meter it causes
a needle to register the number
of units of Illumination at a given
location. When the needle point
to a read "danger zone" on the
dial, the light is Insufficient for
reading or sewing.
NOW IS TIME FOR
HEATING REPAIRS
Have little repairs to the heat

big repair bills later. This Is tbe
