THERMOSTAT IMPROVED
Outdoor-Indoor Type Seen as Re
ducing Variation.
A new and improved type of ther
mostat controls the heat output of
rediators both in accordance with the
temperature requirements of the room
as well as the outdoor temperature,
says the Plumbing and Heating In
dustries Bureau. The result of the
dual control is to anticipate the
heating needs of the room and thus
provide an even temperature which
will not vary more than a fraction of
a degree.

The desirability of any home depends in a very
great degree on the established character of the
neighborhood. A visit to—
WOODSIDE PARK
—will convince you that the wide space allotted
to most of the homes makes possible a privacy
and independence rarely found in the modern
suburb.
A steady, healthy growth over a period of fifteen
years assures stability of great value to the
home seeker.
