Here for Week-End— Keep shades, reflector bowls and especially bulbs, clean. They gather more dust and dirt than most people realize. Dusting or washing them with a damp rag every month will give you ap proximately 25'< more light. Silk shades should be brushed weekly. Use light-colored shades; also light colors on walls and ceiling, when decorating. Dark shades, walls and ceilings absorb as much as 50% of the light. Dark shades, or shades turned dark yellow should be replaced. When redecorating, select an especially light color for the ceiling. Use the right bulb in the right place. Wrong sizes may mean eyestrain for your family. Have enough light to see what you are looking at quickly and clearly.
