Do you have to sit like that? Or are they just having a bomb drill?

Electrically Heated Screen and Foot Pad Take Chill From Cold Room
CHILLING surfaces, cold, damp walls and frosty windows need no longer bring discomfort to the home or office. All their icy darts are robbed of their sting by a new electric screen and pad, shown ‘on the right, which have just been constructed by L. W. Schad of East Pittsburg, Pa.

Connected to a light socket by an extension cord, the electrically heated screen serves as an auxiliary radiator and can be moved anywhere about the house or placed between your desk and the window, where it will heat the room and also protect vou from the draft. The chilling effect of cold floors is eliminated when standing on one of the heated pads which, like the screen, can be moved about as desired.

  1. Did nobody notice what body parts they were actually heating up with the “foot” pad?
