In addition, many older fami lies have built further security from a combination of litfe insur ance, savings and inve.stments. In .short, Miss Buckley says, "Older Americans h.ave (*nter(‘d a period of rising income and wid ening choice’s.

The best type is the all-metal strip made of spring bronze, a ribbed metal strip that remains springy. When installing in a double window, raise the sash all the way or lower the upper one.* Nail the strip against the frame and an extra strip against the inside of the bottom rail of the upper sash. The nailed side should be toward the indoors. When the window is closed, this will press against the top of the lower sash, sealing the space be tween the two sashes.
