On the second trip he had a white painted gondola with the result that the tomperature remained close to: freezing point. Light colored clothes are cooler for summer than dark A feature of the landscape is the brightly painted homes in which the Canadian farmers reside. Which is a reminder that an unpainted house in the hot summer is usually very warm. An experience of Professor Picard, the Swiss scientist, illustrates the point. When he made his first flight into the stratosphere, th gondola of his balloon was painted black, At sevâ€" eral miles above the earth, when the temperature was 72 degrees below zero the air of the gondola, due to the sun‘s rays, was 100 above zero. . Painted howses are easier to heat in winter than unpainted ones, and some authoritiee declare that lightâ€" tinted paint will increase the amount of heat given off by radiators. Cerâ€" tainly painted houses are more cheerâ€" ful to look at than unpainted ones. They last longer also. It is said that they are less liable to catch fire, and that it is easier to get mortgage loans on houses that are well painted.
