FURNACE
ATUNE-UR
\bur car runs more
efficiently when its motor is
in tune. So will your furnace
when it's clean, lubricated
and properly adjusted,
whether gas, oil or propane.
In a recent survey, 97
percent of furnace oil burners weren't firing at the correct rate,
and were wasting energy.
That's why your EMC recommends a tuncup for your
furnace by a professional. It can pay for itself in no time. And
savings could run as high as 30 percent.

most interesting things
students do in Mr.
Fuller's room is called
TGT. This stands for
Teams, Games and
Tournaments. Mr. Fuller
does his instructing;
then he divides the class
into small groups.
These groups work
together, using games,
worksheets and question

about learning in this
way and about helping
their team win the
