On every chart | giving the names of famous passes | and mountain paths one finds the | appellation “Breche Zsigmondy." | The present Nobel laureate, his | elder brother, the late Dr. Emil Zsig- | mondy, and Ludwig Purtscheller, an | athletic instructor of Graz, Austria, | on July 26, 1885, managed to mu-‘ one of the most perilous ridges in the | French Alps. The most daring Eng- lish, Swiss and French mountain climbers had not attempted the feat, +5 they considered it too dificult. To reach the top it was necessary to scale | 1 perpendicular wall of granite 320 | teet high. The climb is still the talk f the cronies of Dauphiny NDAY STAR, WASHINGTON. UARY 9, 1927—PART 1. on’t spend your money to melt the snow on vy Even solid, weather-tight roofs can’t hold escaping heat + + + + Sealing your attic with Celotex will stop this needless loss Anyone who can use a saw and hammer can finish off an attic room with Celotex. You simply nail the broad, light boards to the studding and rafters. Celotex not only shuts out heat and cold but converts your c!d attic into an attractive, liv- able room. BOK at your roof after a snow- storm! If roof snow melts on a freezing day your own heating plant melts it. Your rqof is leaking valuable heat —your fuel and money are being wasted. Building authorities know that 97% of American homes con- tribute to this loss. Don'’t let your house leak heat! Your home can be as tight to heat as it is to wind and rain, but ordinary materialsalone—wood,plas- ter, wallboard and shingles—won’t make it so. A special insulating (heat-stopping)material is necessary. Celotex Insulating Lumber pro- vides this essential protection. Celotex is not cut from trees—it is made by mammoth machines from thetough fibresof cane. Count- less tiny air cells sealed within the fibres provide the most effective in- sulating material known to science. with Celotex have set a new stand- ard in American building practice. For these homes are winter-warm, summer-cool, quiet, strong and about 4 more economical to heat. INE YOURATTIC withCelotex. And hereis good news for those who built before Celotex was avail- able! You can still enjoy many of theadvantages of this amazing lum- ber by lining your attic with Celotex. While attic lining cannot effect the same results as complete house insulation, it gives protection where . it is most needed. The roof is the most exposed, yet the thinnest and least protected part of your house. Also, because heated air rises, more than 60% of the avoidable heat-leakage in an uninsulated house is through the roof in winter. And in summer, such a roof is poor protection against sn"nhldn‘! the roof. freesing i lbomtl'lfl;;:‘h-n-hn:fi'-‘;m.. :fl your attic with Celotex will end this waste, save fuel money and convert your attic info an attrac- tive, livable room. AVES MORE than it costs. Lining your attic with Celotex is not a big job or an expensive job. You simply nail the broed, light boards right to the studding and ‘rafters. Enough Celotex to line your attic will cost you very little. And Celotex will more than pay for its cost in the fuel money it saves.
