"We shouldn't be discouraged if it does take a little time," Fadel further advised member communities. "One of the things that's a little discouraging is when some of the participants don't know if they want the system." "Those of you courageous to go ahead with this, we represent you," he continued.

"Those of you who are undecided, we can't take any reluctant maybes along with us." His comments were backed by Frank Staheli, chairman of the agency, who emphasized, "I feel very strongly we need to make up our minds whether we're going to go with municipal power."

You can beat the heat and stay comfortable too. Set air-conditioning thermostats no lower than 78 degrees T. Hirn your room units off if you are going to be out for even 10 minutes. Turn off your central air conditioner when you leave for more than three hours. Run air conditioners only when necessary.

On really hot days, set the fan speed on high. In humid weather, set the fan at low speed to provide less cooling, but more moisture removal. Buy air conditioners sized just right for your needs. Too large a unit will be inefficient and expensive. If you want an alternative way to cool down your home, consider circular, rollaway, and window fans.

Their operating costs will be significantly lower than those for air conditioners. Finally, cool the space you need. Close off the doors and vents of unused rooms. Color Country Spectrum Published daily except Monday and Saturday by Spectrum Publishing 166 North 400 West St. George, Utah 84770.
