DR.. DIXON URGING
CARE Of OURSELVES
Says That Spring Is the Time When
Folks Should Not Forget
Their Health

DR.. Samuel G. Dixon. State Com
missioner of Health, says that March
is the month when people want to be
careful of their health and to know
what they are doing. He urges that
great care be taken in clothing and
also in diet.
These are the Doctors ideas:
When nature arouses from her
winter lethargy and the first faint
promises of Spring softens the wind.
man in common with all animal life
harkens to the foretokening.
THE desire for change and relief
from the winter routine is strong in us
all and while this is the time when
caution should be exercised our inn
pulses seem to lead us to cast 1t aside.
The high death rate from pneumonia
and tuberculosis which is the newt
able accompaniment OF the early
Spring months is an irrefutable evi-
dence that this change from winter
habits requires the exercise OF caution
to prevent evil results.
"The city dweller in particular Is
apt TO over-eat and under-eXercise
during the winter season. AS a result
when Spring approaches his physical
strength is below par, he becomes
easily fatlgued ana therefore SuSCep-
tible to the attacks of disease germs.
"Old people who suffer from the
cold during the winter and who do not
appreciate that ventilation need not
mean exposure, are apt to suffer from
tie sudden changes of temperature at
this season of the year. 1t is particu-
larly due to these winter habits OF
poor ventilation and insufficient exer-
else that when Spring arrives we feel
debilitated
THE sensible liver who sleeps the
year round in the fresh air. eats in
moderation and exercises nationally is
far less subject to Spring fever and
Spring ailments than the more self
indulgent individual.
During March when fluctuations of
the temperature are frequent care
should be taken to maintain an even
bodily temperature by proper protec-
ton in the way OF clothing. Better
some slight discomfort at noon than to
be chilled on the way home from
work at night. Moderation in diet is
also advisable. This with a reasonable
amount of exercise and well ventilated
sleeping rooms will aid in resisting the
dangers accompanying the approach OF
Spring
