Writing | from the standpoint of health, Dr. Ar- |nold H. Kegel, commissioner of health for the City of Chicago, says: “A home, to be a healthful place for children, must be dry and warm. Dampness should never penetrate the walls or floors. Temperatures should be main- tained fairly constant, and it should be possible to properly humidify the at- mnxpth\‘re without causing the walls to sweat. “Insulation—applied to walls, floors | and ceilings—is the most practical way | to accomplish_ this.
