The Mullid)nty automatic filter, because of its self-cleaning feature, is ideal for applications of this type where \cntilalim! systems are not in contiinn)us use. The hller is always in efficient operalimr condition without depending on tlu^ human element.
Tlie exclusive principle of overlapping panel construction in the Multi-
Duty was introduced by A A F in 1927. It is still the most practical nietliod of cond)iiiing the fimclion of self-cleaning with the 0|)eraling eyrie. Although there have been mnneroii,-improvements in the design of individual panels and in nuit construction, this basic principle has never been surpassed.

Using Copper wisely in Building Design and Construction
214 year-old r n ^ f j
The copper rool on Chiisl (."lunch, Philadt-lphia. was inslallcd in 1737 and is brliiA I'd to l)t' the oldest copper root ol its type in existence. It is of standint:; scam de sign and the in. \ 60 in. sheets used for the roof pans were imported from England. Ii.r there were no copper roUing facilities in America at that time.
A recent inspection disclosed that deterioration of the wood sheathiiii; in one area w ;is snch that tlu- cleat histenings were uot holding. Engineers of The Anu'riean Brass C'ompany suggested that tlu- pans in this section l)e rcnioNcd and that the cleat fastenings he secured to the sound purlins helow the roof hoards. A \ . \ c : o n d A (lopper was funushed to replace the old pans.
The original thickness of the copper sheets was determined by gaging the imexposed portion in the standing seam. It was h)und to he practically the saunas onr pri'seiit-dav lf)-o/. weight. But most significant was the fact that the exposed area of the pans had lost hut fi\ (' thousandths of an inch after 214 ycais of service.
Indications are that the cop|)er installed more than 2 centuries ago \\ ill contiiuie to protect this historic edifice ioi many generations to come . . . an example of great interest to the architect and the sheet metal worker of todav—and tomorrow.

CONCRETE i - s. "Cffon •d by
In Nation's Outstanding Hospitals These four leading hospitals are representative of the many important structures of all types which have been built with Pozzolith Concrete during the past twenty years.
Pozzolith's wide acceptance and use result from the fact that it produces the following combination of benefits — at lower cost than hy any other means.

Only Pozzolith produces all these benefits because only Pozzolith disperses cement, reduces water and entrains the optimum amount of air.

G o i n g e v e n f u r t h e r than manufacturing automatic temperature control equipment and planning each system for the exact purpose which it is to serve! Those activities are only two-thirds of the complete Johnson chain of responsibility. T h e final step is the installation of the apparatus, which also is done by members of the nation-wide Johnson organization. Instal led-for-the-purpose, to fit each particular job!
A u n i q u e c o r p s o f J o t i n s o n m e c h a n i c s does the installation work. T h e members of this distinctive group are stationed at strategic locations in each of the company-owned branch office territories, to carry out the instructions of the J o h n s o n staff of branch managers and field engineers. J o h n s o n mechanics are Johnson's own men, devoting their entire time to the specialized work which they have been trained to perform. They are temperature control craftsmen, with a pract ical background in the pipe-fitting trade.
To s e r v e t h e b e s t i n t e r e s t s of users of J o h n s o n automatic temperature control systems is the objective w h i c h is attained by the policy of a complete "chain of responsibility." Manufacturing—planning—installing! Undivided interest, f rom start to finish, is centered in one highly-specialized organizat ion. A n d yet, there is full cooperation with consulting engineers w h o are retained by owners or their architects and with their heating and air conditioning contractors . . . Ask a nearby J o h n s o n engineer for recommendations which wi l l solve yo/zr temperature control problems. J O H N S O N S I - R V I C I - C O M P A N Y , M i l waukee 2, Wisconsin.

ANOTHW CASt OF
if CO' C O P P E R S H E E T S , laid over building paper, are easily atidper-niatiemlyfasteued to rooj ti ilh copper cleats, lu o copper nails being used in each cleat. 20 oz. Revere Copper was used on the rooj;
Jrieze iiork, gutters and downspouts oj the W'olhnan Memorial.
WH E N you are building to endure, that's when copper really counts. In fact, copper is ahead on many
counts. Its lasting qualities have been proved down through the centuries. It requires little, if any, maintenance and when aged, adds a distinctive note to the building. Its salvage value is unusually high.
A n d because it is so readily worked, installing Revere Copper Sheets to fit the unusual contours of roofs; such as the one that covers the Wollman Memorial Building, Central Park. New Y o r k ; is done easily and speedily \s litii applied by an experienced contractor in accordance with Rc\cre's recommended techniques. Ciutters, downspouts antl frieze work on this building also are Revere Copper.
Although copper, because of government regulations, cannot now be used for roofing, we use the Wollman Memorial installation as a means of reminding you of the merits of Revere Copper so that when copper once nn)re is permitted for roofing you wi l l again use it. Meantime remember, while limited, vou can still get Revere Sheet, Strip and Rol l ('opper for flashing.
For through-wall applications, ask the Revere Distributor about Revere Keystone Thru-Wal l Flashing.* l i e also wil l advise you of the availability of materials and put you in touch with Revere's Technical Advisory Service in the event you wish to discuss your technical problems.

W h y these w i d e o p e n s c h o o l s ? Because architects are designing ihein for two kinds of
space: the kind that's built, nieasiu-ed with a ruler, and
the kind that's felt, sensed with your eye.
T o make classrooms seetn more spacious, they are
Ix iiig built today with clear glass from wall to wall and
sill to ceiling. Some rooms have glass from floor to ceiliiiL;.
Clear glass does tioi obscure vision. The eye slips past the
ceiling to the sky and the surrounding greenery. This
creates vmit\ between the inside and the out-of-doors.
It makes any room .seem larger.
Clear glass also admits the maximum amoimt of day
light, .so that dayl ight-engine«-red schools are flooded with
natural light. Such design solves the problem of i,'laie
Ix'cause it reduces ecjutrasis in light, the too sharp con
trasts that produce glare.
Another advantage of using clear, flat glass for entire
walls is its low cost. Clear , Hat y;lass is the lowest cost
gla/ing material you can buy and the cheapest to install .
But low cost is not the big reason for builtl iug-in
sunshine and view. It's because children and teachers—
in fact, oflice and factory people, nunses a n d piitifots,
homeowners and apartment dwellers just natural ly
love walls of daylit-ht!

when GAS does these
4 big jobs...
It keeps them warm—automatically—dependably, and without a tap of work
or fuss by your client. Probably no other modern convenience means
so much to the modern home owner as economical, automatic gas heat.
It provides abundant hot water suply—day and night. The phenomenal
increase in automatic gas water heater installations since the war backs up
the slogan—"cleaner, quicker, hotter, cheaper." Automatic Gas Water
Heating is a "must" in new and old homes, too.
It helps the homemaker do her biggest job—cooking—more easily, faster
and better than ever before. The streamlined beauty of modern gas ranges
adds kitchen glamour to any dream house.
It assures roomy, modern food storage and refrigeration that "stays silent,
lasts longer." Millions of gas refrigerators in daily use prove that "Gas
Has Got It" in refrigeration, too.
G A S HAS G O T I T AND "SMART" HOMES PROVE IT!

Bryant engineers did, twelve years a^o, when they were called upon to provide gas-fired equipment in a limited space for the world's first apartment bu i ld ing designed to include individual suite heating.
T h e y created the vertical winter air condit ioner , and called its installation Personalize^/ Heating. It was one of the few really new developments in heating in several decades, and it set a new standard for heating comfort in all types of multi-family construction.
Later , designers carried the theme a step further . . . paired gleaming white Bryant automatic water heaters with these vertical winter air conditioners;
another space-saving device that was received enthusiastically by planners of midti-family and individual family dwellings alike.
I t is a matter of record that these Bryant Personalized Heating systems have been all that they were meant to be, from the standpoint of both cost and comfort. In less space than is normally required for conventional s lace heating equipment alone, these s im Bryant quality units provide a complete automatic heating and water heating service, economically and surely.
They are an aid to design and construction— and your Bryant Distributor stands readv to lend his aid in helping you to incorporate this efficient, space-saving ec|iiipment into your new plans.

In a|)|)i aisiiig t tnopean a n h in t i n n it is iiatni al to make meiual comparisons with the ardi i tednre ol A i iKi i t i i . However, it is necessaiy to take into amsitl-eraiioti in our ap])raisal the di l lereiu hatkgronnil, i ia tlitions, and etonomit stattts ol the <oniui\ ami the availahility of labor antl materials. T h e arthitettiire ol i m o p e rellet ts a l l these influences in the solntion of their prol)leins.
In Emope . lor e\amj)le . the \a i i e iy of huilding materials is limited. T h e y are ex))ensi\e while labor is relatively (heap. C;oin|Knaiiveh lew buildings are l.itetl with lat e bi it k because lat e brit k is relatively ( xpensise. As a result, stncct) is almost a itnivcis.tl sill late uiaterial in prat tit ally all types ol bniltlings t \(ej)t momimeinal structures where natmai stone is used.
Strangely enough, stucctj is tisetl in not oidy the (eutial antl southern tonntries of Enrtipe but also in the noithern toitntiies suth as Swetlen. Whi le the experience with stittto in Amerita in the tiorthern sections has been pt)or tine tt) the variations in temperatures in summer antl winter, the stucco in Sweden lias fairly snttessfully withstood such tein|)eratnre changes. T h e Swedish arthitetts seem to have solved this pioblem by the intrtuluc lion of lime into this stucco which seems to h a \ f tlone the job.
There is almost no sjiet iilati\'e housing tonstrm iii>n in Emope . The it asoirs for s iuh a tonilil ion is the difliculty of l ina iu ing antl the compaiai i \e modest reiuals Euit>peans iratlitionallv jjay loi living cpiarteis.

Don't Vent Below Insulation Vents below insulation let heated air out, cold air in, waste fuel in w i n t e r . This de fea ts the purpose of insulation, which is to prevent the escape of heat.
V E N T I L A T E H E R E

INFRA NSULATION
Ventilation is generally necessary above all insulations, less in residences, more in buildings where
crowds or other conditions create large ainoinits of water vapor. Where roof rafters are insidated, it is good
practice to cap under the ridge, insulate across, and ventilate above.
With ordinary insulation, at least 1 sq. in. of free opening is needed for each 4 sq. ft. of ceiling and wall
surface exposed to vapor flow. No point in the vented space should be more than 25 ft. from a vent opening.
Adequate ventilation takes care of vapor which seeps throtigli into a building space from within, and of
evaporated water which leaks in through nail holes and other openings from witliont. In stunnier, attic vents
help lessen the heat load imposed by the sun.
Nfidtipie accordion alimnninn is non-condensation forming, non-absorbent. Since it is impenneable to
vapor, it will slowly force out, even witliout vents, ordinary anioimts of fortuitous \ apor whieli lias leaked in
through openings in the outside walls. (To do this, an insidation must hax e a permeal)ilit\- no greater than
one-fifth that of the colder ottter wall or roof.) Venting acceleiates this piocess.
Multiple accordion alumimnn turns back 97'/ of the infra-red rays striking it; emits from its opposite
surface but .3'f. There is negligible conduction, and convection is blocked. The connnercial form of nndtiple
accordion alumimnn, with 6 integral reflective spaces and 6 reflective stnfaces is Infra Instdation Type 6.

for r u g g e d w e a r a n d l igh ter w e i g h t Architeclural designs that will be subject to doily abuse and yet must retain shape and appearonce are safe with three-dimensional design-strengthened, textured RIGID-IZED METALS. From store fronts to hospital radiator covers (illustrotion above), these versatile metals resist daily damage. Maintenance costs are lowered because of RIGIDIZED METAL s resistance to rugged treatment and metal costs are lowered because of its increased mechanical values.
CONSERVATION O F STRATEGIC MATERIALS is gained through metol gage reductions possible with the redistribution of metal throughout the cross-sections. Because of increased flexural rigidity and impact resistance, together with scrotch-and-denl-resislont surfaces, these maximum-strength, minimum-weight metols have unlimited product applications throughout the architectural field.

ARCHITECTURAL MASONRY PANELS No project is complete without a facing or veneer which carries out the character of the design. From banks to bridges, 2" thin Mo-Sai gives the architect and designer a alorious oonortunitv designer a glorious opportunity to express in mass their esthetic tastes.
Mo-Sai is a pre-inspected, factory-controlled masonry panel with an exposed mosaic-like surface of colored quartr or granite, obtainable in varied shapes. Through this medium designers have unlimited freedom ot surprisingly low cost.
For more details on Mo-Sai see Sweet's Architectural File, Section 4d, or write direct for illustrated 8-page folder.

I HE intelhgent choice of colors to
properly blend together and produce an effect in harmony
with the character of the building, its style of architecture and
its surroundings, is a matter of vital importance. Brick
architecture possesses a charm not surpassed nor inferior
to any other building material.

The huge, modern, fully air-conditioned building of Sakowitz Bros., leading Houston department store, was opened for business February 19. 1951. Continental Automatic Self-Cleaning Air Filters were selected, after careful consideration, to extract the dust from the tremendous volume of air constantly circulated throughout this large and busy store.

Check Continental Air Filters for your air-cleaning problems, and you'll recognize their superiority. Continental's revolutionary, patented filter media extracts air-borne dust more efficiently with constant low resistance to air flow. Filter cells pivot like cars on a ferris wheel as they pass from the front to the back filter curtain. There is no reversal in the direction of air flow through the filter media. As a result, dirt cannot be blown off into the clean-air stream. And, filter cells are kept clean with . . .
A U T O M A T I C S E L F - C L E A N I N G A C T I O N
For 30 minutes or more each filter cell soaks in the oil reservoir in a semi-horizontal position. Then the cell drops to a vertical position . . . thus causing the resultant surge of oil to pass through and effectively flush each air passage. The entire air filter operation provides minimum air resistance and maximum air cleaning efliciency.

Zoned for better heaf control The heating system of ttie "House of Ideas" is divided into three zones, individually controlled by the B & G
vides compensation for varying exposures and if desired, permits different temperatures in different parts of the house.
I n the "House of Ideas", sponsored by H O U S E & G A R D E N , beauty a n d convenience are fully supplemented by winter comfort. A completely concealed B & G HyJro-l'lo Radiant Pane l Heat ing System distributes radiant sunny warmth throughout.
D & G Hydro-Flo Heat ing is a forced hot water system . . . which means that the heat supply is a l w a y s under positive control. T h e temperature of the water circulating through the system is automatically raised or lowered to meet every change in the weather. Even in spr ing and fal l , when only a little warmth is needed, indoor temperature is kept exactly at the comfort level—no wasteful overheating.
That's why a B & G Hydro-Flo Heating System costs so little to operate—it matches fuel consumption to weather ccmditions. T h i s ultra-modern system permits a choice of baseboard panels, coni ectors. radiators or radiant panels.
B & ( i Hydro-Flo Heat ing adds plus value to any home—increases saleabil ity. Send for free booklet, "C^apture the Sun with B & G Hydro-Flo Heat ing."

EASIEST TO INSTALL! Because H. B. Sinith cast iron boilers are assembled from precision-machined sections and parts, they are easily erected at the installation with a miniinnin of labor.
— \
When increasing the capacity of an H. B. Smith boiler to meet additional heating requirements, or when replacing ' i t , i t is not necessary to tear }
out a wall, part of a founda-^ tion, or both.
EASIEST T O C O N V E R T !
H. B. Smith boilers are easiest to convert to different fuels, should the one in use become in critical supply. All operate with great efficiency with solid fuel, oil or gas. In low-cost natural gas areas, H. B. Smith boiler conver-
k sions are bringing clean, trouble-free, inexpensive heat to hundreds of users.
