EDITORIAL SEASON OF THE SNEEZE Aug. 15 is fast approaching and that, the Health News Institute reminds us, means the season of the sneeze for millions of hay fever sufferers. Although hay fever occurs from spring through fall, the worst period is from Aug. 15 when ragweed pollen is found in the greatest abundance, to the first autumn frost. Most liaty fever sufferers are allergic to ragweed pollen. However, there are a number of other substances which also cause typical hay fever symptoms, such as sneezing, wheezing, coughing, burning eyes and runny nose. Physicians can, through al*- lergy tests, determine . just which substances ,are the offenders. They are^then able to reduce sensitivity and prevent further attacks by injection of certain materials. For those hay fever sufferers who cannot tolerate desensitizing injections, the pharmaceutical manufacturing industry has provided a number of j medicines which do offer relief for hay fever victims. Antihistamines are^the best known of these products. They are believed to provide relief from symptoms in from 70 to 95 per cent of cases. Cartisone, hydrocortisone, prednisone, prednisolone and corticotropin are also administered by physicians in certain cases. Although rarely fatal, hay fever is not a disease to be taken lightly, the HNI says. If not attended to promptly, it may well develop into bronchial asthma. The Allergy Foundation of America estimates that at least 1^,000,000 man days of working time are lost every year by hay fever sufferers. CHANGING SCHOOLS The transition from school to school, whether it occurs within one school district or between states, is a major uprooting for most children. Parents can do a lot to ease the strain of a change. Not all children react the same way to the problems raised |by the shift of schools, so don't be misled by surface clamness. Instead, anticipate your child's problems, and you will help him bridge the gap between his old1 and new schools. Specifically, here are some of the things you can do: Let him know early that a move is in the offing. Tell him why and let jhim help in the planning. • • . . If at all possible, give him a chance to visit the new school well in advance of the move. See whether he can meet the principal, the counselor, some of the teachers he's likely to have, even a few of his future schoolmates. Avoid making your own worries known. If you fear the school may be too tough, don't say so. In any case, beware of making snap judgements. See that the old school is prepared to ship all necessary records to the new school. Often the hapless youngster is caughter in the middle of the confusion that results ^wfien this is not done. Confer with your youngster's current teacher ahd principal about his work and prob- FOR THE BEST RATES and SERVICE IN FINANCING Autos - Boats Appliances see the McHenry State Bank SVCH&tMi PlUMB{R® AIR-CONDITIONING/ WORTH EVERY PEKING YOU CAM SET -- LTWINK OF THE.
