But there are some diseases and accidents that do their worst in hot weather. Some of these are obvious. Sun strokes and heat strokes are more likely to occur in July and August than in January. Too much exposure and too much exercise in the hot sun may produce sun stroke. Prolonged excessive heat, either in or out of doors, can cause heat stroke. In either case it is important to keep the victim cool and call a physician at once. Sunburn has hospitalized many a vacationer. Every one should know, says the American Medical Associa tion, that gradual exposure to the sun, beginning with a few minutes a day, is the recommended course. But many of us forget to watch the clock and to take precautions against sunburn in the excitement of the first day at camp or at the seashore. The bacteria that cause diarrhea and stomach upsets multiply much faster in lukewarm foods, and it’s important to keep cold foods in refrigeration and to keep hot foods hot. Swimming is fine exercise and also is good for cooling off on a hot day. Those with sinus or ear trouble should be careful about swimming. Swimmers should make certain that the water is safe from pollution. A clear mountain stream may look attractive. It also may be loaded with germs. And there still are cases of typhoid and disentery from drinking untreated water. Campers can disinfect water by boiling or by commercial disinfec tant tablets. If there are horses or cows around, there is likely to be tetanus. Tetanus (lockjaw) is very serious. It can be prevented by injection of tetanus toxoid. If your family hasn’t had tetanus boosters recently, get your shots before going to the country. Flies, roaches, mosquitoes and ticks are troublesome in the hot months. Insecticides and screens usually can keep them under control. In tick country it is important to make a close examination after disrobing and remove all ticks. Bn Brighten Your Day!
