Window Shades NEW YORK (UPI) Something very simple helps to cut fuel consumption on the home JronL fuel bills.

"The something shades. The tips is based on a- study made by the Armour Research Foundation during World War; II. The study showed that' window shades offer valuable dividends in insulation. Their -reflecting qualities, especially in white 7 or light colors, keep out the heat in warm weather, reducing the load on the. air conditioner.

Conversely, according to the report, a fuel saving in cold weather can be jealized by the proper use of shades. In either case, the savings may. be as much as 15 to 20 per cent and, with some shade cloths such as room-darkeners, even more. Pulling down the shades all the way as darkness approaches helps cut down on the amount of fuel it takes to heat Wi.

Since about 1896, according to Encyclopaedia Britannica, bridge, whist, auction bridge, and contract bridge have successively been the principal intellectual card games of the English-speaking countries.

-J: The game, played in the most fashionable settings on each" side of the Atlantic, had a humble ancestry. It derived from whist, a game played by classes" in 16th-century England. Two centuries later, whist was taken up by gentlemen playing in London coffeehouses, especially after Edmond Hoyle published a treatise on it in 1742. The game, played "according to Hoyle," soon spread to America. From whist came bridge.

And upon its introduction to New York in 1893 and to London in 1894, bridge almost immediately supplanted whist in the card rooms of men's clubs. Within a couple of years it became the game for fashionable mixed gatherings also. The earliest form of bridge itself gave way to auction bridge, which was introduced in England in about 1904 and became, from 1907 to 1928, the most universally popular card game ever known. Auction bridge had at least 15 million adherents when, in 1930 it became secondary, to contract bridge. The total number of contract bridge been estimated at 50 million, at least half of them in the United States.

The literature of the game comprises more than 9,000 volumes. About 1 million books on bridge are sold each year. Periodicals on bridge have beet published lnrl?.
