Take extra good care of
your feet. The feet are
extrememly important they
are your means of locomo
tion. The rules of foot care
are simple. The primary
thing to remember is to keep
your feet dry and clean.
Daily washing and changing
of socks is a must.
One way to make sure youi*
feet stay dry is by dusting
with a good foot powder.
These powders are available
in your local drugstore. A
second, and most important,
rule is to be absolutely
certain that your shoes are
correctly fitted. Shoes that
are too large or small can
cause you pain. Don’t take
chances with your feet.
We can fill your complete
pharmaceutical needs
whether you need foot
powders, or bandages. Your
health is our concern. Trust
your prescriptions to our
competent pharmacists.

Tips to Lower
Cost of Air
Conditioning
Susan Millsap
Home Economist
Georgia Power Company
Keeping a home comfort
ably air conditioned in
summer does not necessarily
mean huge electric bill.
Any family with an air
conditioning system can
expect electric bills to be
higher during the summer
than they are when no
comfort conditioning is need
ed. Bills can be kept within
the budget, however, if the
system is used cautiously
and conservatively.
Try setting the thermostat
at 78 degrees. This may be a
little higher than you set it
now, . but many people,
particularly those in well
insulated homes, find it
comfortable once they be
come accustomed to it. Each
setting degree below 78
causes the unit to use five
percent more electricity.
Set the thermostat a few
degrees higher if you’re
going to be away for a few
days. Air should be able to
circulate in the empty house
so it doesn’t get too hot
and pressure can equalize
with the outside in the event
of extreme weather.
Remind family members
to keep windows and doors
closed while the air condi
tioning is operating. Avoid
lingering at an open door
while greeting or saying
good-bye to friends and
encourage children to limit
trips into and out of the
house.
Postpone the use of
MBS I BMHHHBHMHMUMBR 8
heat-and moisture-producing
appliances until the cooler
hours of the day. Be sure, too,
that your clothes dryer is
vented to the outside so the
warm, damp air it produces
doesn’t add to the air
conditioner’s load.
Use kitchen and bathroom
exhaust fans no more than
absoultely necessary. They
can remove as much as 300
cubic feet of cool air from the
room each minute.
Light produces heat, so
make the air conditioner’s
job easier by using lights
sparingly. Of course, you’ll
also be saving the electricity
the light would use.
On the sunny side of the
house, keep drapes closed tc
block sunlight.
