By suitable checks and dampers, circulation through the ventilating ducts described may be governed according to the direction of wind flow to accomplish desired ventilating, heating and cooling effects. By suitably controlled inlets to and from the various rooms, such circulation may be'utilized to suit particular requirements of diiferent rooms.

ingyrafterssupported by said siding and a ceiling havinganinclined dropiflange extending partly up said rafters and other drop flanges meeting in the form of V-shaped ventilating troughs in the ceiling and room defining'partitions at'the juncture of saidineeting ceiling flanges.
2 Ina building of the character disclosed, siding, rafters supported by said siding and a ceiling having an inclined drop flange'extending partly up Zsaidf rafters and other drop flanges meeting in the form of V-shaped ventilating troughs in the ceiling; room defining partitions'at the junk:- ture of'said meeting ceiling flanges and intermediate chambers'at the juncture of difierent rooms and formed by walls in the adjoining corners of such, rooms, said intermediatechambers having ceilings at the lower level ofxsa'iddrop flanges and. forming connecting portions of the ventilatingtroughs.
3.A building having a peaked roof, an inverted V-shaped ventilating trunk under the peak of said roof, partitions dividing the interior of the.buildingginto'rooms,'ceilings for said rooms having inclined dropflanges formingV-shaped troughs,-'said troughs being closed over at the top and'conduit'connections from said peak trunk to .saidcovered ceiling troughs.
4. A building having a'peakedroof, an inverted V -shaped ventilating trunk under the peak of said roof, partitions'dividing the interior of the building into rooms, ceilings for said" rooms hav ing "inclined "drop flanges forming 'V'-shap'ed troughs, said troughsbeing closed over at the top and conduitconnections from said peak trunk to said rcoverfedceilingtroughs and means for establishing connnunication between said peak trunk andthe-outside air.
