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 de- clares that to make the United States a "two vacation nation" would trim down the winter and spring health hazard tremendously and add a signifi- cant increase to the present average life span. "Over fifty percent of all communi- cable 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 per- iod," said Dr. Rawlings. "Mortality runs about the same course. Septem- ber, the first month after vacation season, is usually the most healthful of the year. "If people in this latitude could manage to shift the vacation period 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 the body open to attack and this paves the 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 recuperative purposes as they are in mid-winter. Two vacations would be more of an asset than a loss just as eight hour days and Saturday noon closing hours for big department stores proved pro- fitable. "Any vacation properly spent is an asset to health and everybody ought to manage to get away from the ordinary routine of daily life for at least a brief period each year. To take # | the vacation in the winter and espe- cially to spend it in the sunny South is to increase its benefits and help to make the springtime more healthful." || First Yacht Race Goes to Dennison's 'Hummer' Saturday's race in the first series of the season at the Sheridan Shore Yacht club was won by Dennison in his "Hummer." Pajeau, sailing his own boat, "Lady Bug" was second across the line and Hal Smith's "An- delah," skippered by Max Hayford, took third. A special race which will not count in the regular series was won Sun- day by Earl de Moe in his "Dream Star," while second place went to Sam Goss in "North Star." Sunday specials will be held each week, ac- cording to the plan of the club officials, in addition to the regular races.
