Forthe purpose of securing such results anelectric ventilating fan like that shown inthe accompanying illustration is almost in-valuable. It may be attached to an open-ing in the wall and arranged to force intoor draw directly from the room, or it maybe connected to a system of air ductsthrough which movement is maintained. The illustration serves to show a spe-cial type of electric ventilating fan builtby the B. F. Sturtevant Company, of Bos-ton, Mass, which is especially designed tomeet the above conditions. These electricfans are built in sizes ranging from 18 to tions for patents, make preliminary andvalidity sear
