ONT fly ' your flfcw
from an upstairs win
dow win4 you let
slacker hide in your
'cellar! It your fur
nace Is choked and
clogged with soot, it
is a alacKer and Is
wastlncr coal that
should be making guns and shells to
arm American soldiers.
fi.000.000 -tons of coal will b wast
ed la this country between , now and
June unles our furnaces are cleaned
of soot now and kept clean the rest
of the smlncr.
You wouldn't pack yourijumacc In ice hefore you
Startel the flr. an4 their fonder why yourhouse
'' ' j8f '
was cold. So. why keep your ;
pipes and furnace passages cover- ;
ed with soot, which cats oft more
heat from the house than if you
covered your fire with an asbestos
blanket?
It is not too late to cut your
coal bill and save coal for the war
during the coming, spring months.
Now la the time to give your furnace a spring
house-cleaning. Roll up your sleeves, get your wire
flue brush, and clean out the winter's accumulation
of soot. Then keep your furnace spick and span in
side, cleaning the passages every week.
After having rid yourself of the slacker iA the eel- ,
lar, you will be surprised to find how much less coal ,
it will take to heat your house, and you can fly. your i
flag with a much clearer .conscience. . i
