Abstract: 
This is a supplement to the regular edition of The Plain Dealer, a New Brunswick other weekly newspaper. It is noteworthy especially for the variety of articles on heat conservation devices. While the supplement deals with energy saving in the home through efficient insulation and furnace systems, there is also an attempt to put this sector of conservation in perspective. A 10 per cent cut in domestic energy use would result in a 2 per cent national energy saving. If we can become conscientious in our energy use at home, this should spill over into our sensitivity to energy use on the job. Domestic energy use accounts for 20 per cent of the national total. There are specific artilces dealing with wood heating in a home, checking insulation needs special programs to be considered in apartment buildings and a conservation of energy through responsible use of automobiles. Most articles are geared to practical considerations in implementing energy conservation rather than exploring a philosophy behind it.
