Jv Be enthusiastic about your vacation plans. Thinking of an automobile trip? Fine, but don't try to cover the distance in a few hours. Start out refreshed and stav that way* by being leisurely. Relax. Plan to camp out? All right, but be wary in your camp site. Check on the sanitary facilities. Impure drinking water, milk that has'not been pasteurized and lack of sewerage facilities are conditions to avoid. Know about insects and the infections they carry and about makes and how to avoid them. Outdoor exercise can be fun, but take it easy. Don't try to indulge ~ In strenuous hours of golf and tennis your first day. Carried to excess, outdoor exercise will result in aching muscles, fatigue and even so-called heart attack Which may put you in bed for weeks. And remember that a suntan acquired slowly is much safer. Water sports, swimming, boating and fishing are other good activities for vacation, but again moderation is essential. Swimming is a wonderful sport. Everyone • should know how to swim, but cleanliness of the pool or beach <?ic*nd good personal hygiene should v be observed. Whatever your plans for your | vacation, make them count. If you return to your work-a-day world, feeling more tired than before; you have sacrificed the main objective-- a change is as good as a rest. Instead of enjoying yourself moderately and wisely, you have 1 crowded too much into your leisure period. Have fun on your vacation.
