Better still, take two vacations, if the boss will stand for it, one in summer and the other in winter. · This is the suggestion of Dr. Isaac D. Rawlings, Illinois state health director, who declares that to make the United States a "two vacation nation" would trim down the winter and spring health hazard tremendously and add a significant increase to the present average life ·span. "Over fifty percent of all communicable diseases are crowded into the first four months of the year while less than twenty-five per cent occur during the last four, which follow immediately the summer vacation period," · said Dr. Rawlings. "Mortality runs about the same course. September, the first month after vacation season, i·s usually the most healthful of the year. "If people in this latitude could manage to shift the vacatimi perio< to mid-winter and spend their freedom from work in the sunshine of the South, a tremendous amount of late winter and early spring epidemics could be prevented. The steady grind at work, the scarcity of sunshine and the indoor winter habits reduce the physical resources so as to leave th e body open to attack and this 'pave s th e way to epidemic waves. "Summer vacations are exceedingly beneficial but the long days stimulate much out-door activity anyway· and the warm temperature promotes week-end excursions so that vacations are not ·as actively needed for recuperatiY e purposes as they are in mid-winter. Two vacation s would be more of an a set than a loss ju st as eight hour . days and Saturday· noon closing hours for big department stores proved profitable. "Am· vacatio11 properly spent is an asset -to health and evenhodv ought to m~nage · to get away from the ordinarv routine of dailv life for at lea st a brief period each ~:car. To ta ~e the vacation in the winter and esp~ cially to spend it in the sunnv South is to increase its benefits and heto to make the springtime more healthful." ...
