I Windhorn gets award as top * Yankee rookie. FORSYTH COUNTY HEALTH CENTER NEWS By Grace Palmour, I’HN Dr. Henry F. Dietrich, writing for the Home Safety Review, stat es that the increase in drownings during the first year children be gin walking clearly shows that we are failing to provide the pro tection needed to save young lives. In talking with Mr. J. W. Phil lips, Resevoir Manager of Buford Dam Project, he stated there were 19 persons drowned in Lake Lan ier through last year. During the first quarter of this year 5 per sons have lost their lives there. This is before the real season of recreation begins. I These consisted of boating acci dents, walking too close to the water and falling in, car accidents and wading or swimming in un familiar water. Drowning is listed as the So :rond highest cause of accidental deaths in children under 5 years in the U. S. A. during 1956. Dr. Dietrich further says that many times we falsely teach the very young that they are "un sinkable” when we say, “watch baby swim” in loving innocene. We are teaching him to be ah solutely unafraid of water. And when he blithely steps off into six foot of water and drowns we simply can’t understand it. Yet for the first 3 years of life, parents have extolled the virtues of water, to the point that, except when it descends from clouds, water is the symbol of everything desireable and clean—and by intimation, good. The young infant can be taught respect for, rather than fear of, or indifference, to the potentiali ties of water. He can learn that the human body is not unsinkable. Let’s keep these facts in mind and approach this wonderful play ground, Lake Lanier, in our back door with the respect due it. Good material can be found on this and other safety problems of interest to all of us in the Home Safety Review published quarterly by the National Safety Council.
