BEWARE OF GERMS
 DURING VACATION
State Health Head Writes Ad-
 vice for Herald Readers

The extreme importance of talk ing care of ones health during va cation is pointed out today in special article written by pr. Stan- ley H. Osborne. Connecticut state commissioner of health. The ar ticle was written exclusively for the Herald. It will be published in the state health bulletin shortly.
 Dr. Osborne writes:
 Vacation time, daresay, is looked forward to by the majority of people, more than any other an- nual event In the past it was cus- tomary for parents to gather to- gether the blankets, toys, games and clothing, pack them up and make a trip to the country. mountains or seashore. AS one goes by automo- bile through Connecticut at the present time, 1t would seem that most of the mothers and fathers have packed up the family car and are transporting their families, bag and baggage, in every direction, having no definite destination fri view, their sole purpose being to keep moving. They appear to be going east and west, as much as north and south and away from the mountains and seashore as much as towards the mountains and seashore. Their chief objective seems to be moving.
 This in itself would prove to be q Godsend, from a standpoint of dis ease prevention if they didn't have to stop sometime along their way to drink and eat. l. is when we stop that We are apt to come in con- tact with materials that may cause vacation time to become anything but pleasure. When we stop, the family car may be parked in a : thicket, which seems to be beauti- | fully dark and cool, and with an at mosphere such as Is sure to be en- . ioyed after a dusty ride. Often this i anticipated haven is bordered with . the poison ivy vine and the dark, cool retreat is damp enough 10 breed mosquitoes, all of which have much too friendly an interest in us. The only advice for overcoming such situations is to become ac- quajEted with the poison ivy vine and not park near it. It is easy to become acquainted with the three- leavcd poison ivy vine, and then so simple to keep away from 1t after it is once recognized. If one should accidentally come into contact with it the use of plenty of soap and water imcmdi&tely will wash off the irritating material the vine leaves on the skin and which later causes the eruption and itching. Bathing the irritated skin with boric acid so
 luton is helpful. Likewise avoid the cool, dark tkicket where breezes cannot penetrate, for such d spot is sure to he favorable for the breed ing oi mosquitoes. For camping,

 Disease Lurks In Vacation Land
 After reaching the vacation ,des,
 tination we should be particularly
 careful Of sey eral things if we are to
