Keep attic cool, house comfortable with automatic roof ventilators Tests by the home build ing industry show that proper ventilation can re duce attic air temperatures by as much as 50-degrees from levels commonly reaching 120 and higher.

If you're cutting corners on the family budget these tight-money days, consider buying an automatic clothes dryer. This is one instance when a major in vestment will actually save you money in the long run -- on family wardrobe ex penses. With an automatic dryer installed conveniently in your home you can dry laundry any time, regard less of the weather or time of day. This means you can wash more ^frequently. More frequent, smaller loads not only save you time and lots of laundry drudg ery, they enable your fam ily to manage with fewer clothes and household lin ens. Over the years, this can add up to a big saving. And because growing chil dren can wear the same garments more often, they'll wear them out instead of outgrowing them. You'll get your money's worth from the clothes you do buy and give away fewer perfectly good garments. To profit most from your automatic dryer, home economists at Sears, Roe buck and Co. suggest buying garments made of washable knits or permanent press fabrics. These require little or no ironing when laundered ac cording to hang tag in structions and tumble dried correctly. Many Kenmore dryers are equipped with permanent press and knit cycles that stop the dryer automati cally when these special fabrics are just dry. To prevent shrinkage and harshness, avoid overdry- ing and prevent wrinkling, it is advisable to remove garments as soon as the dryer stops.
