|FAVORS OUTDOOR
 LIFE PROGRAM.
Health Director Gives In- teresting Suggestions
 For Summer

Go outdoors and stay outdoors even to the extent of eating out doors asmuch as possible during the summer months, is the advice of Elizabeth, 0. Nickerson, director of the bureau of public health irlstruc- ton of the state department of health, in the departments weekly broadcast today
 Urging out-of-door cooking, meals on the porch and frequent days of picknicking, Miss Nickerson said: Doing the unusual is Q stiinulat- ing experience even if you are just a bit tired after the extra effort. The freedom and i1formality of living out of doors even for a few hours each week will do much to arouse one from the lethargy of routine living, and the sunshine and fresh air will not only give extra health values but will lead to sound and restful sleep following such an out- ing"
 Tempting Meals
 Delightful meals can be prepared oil an outdoor fireplace or grill and they afford the opportunity for each member of the party or family cir- cle to take some active part to make them a success, the director stated. The simplest foods take on an add cd flavor when cooked outdoors al- though the charm of going primi- tive" depends upon a certain basic amount of equipment to make the task not too difficult. This in- cludes adequate though crude tables and seats, long handled implements, ample sized kettles, unbreakable dishes, all of which can be folded or tucked away in the basement or shack until the next time. The party should be 50 organized that no one person has the brunt of the responsibility and all have their share in cleaning up afterwards. Refreshing foods, such as lettuce, whole tomatoes, watermelon, oranges and other juicy fruits, and an ample supply of drinking water or other cool drink should be provid- ed, to offset the possibility of too dry 8 lunch.
 If no facilities are available for cooking outdoors, @ little ingenuity will transform the porch into an out door serving room where meals can be served informally until late fall, Miss Nickerson said. All that IS needed is 8 little reorganization, and ample trays, more covered dishes to keep food hot, and cups that hold their heat a longer time.
 Share Work :,
 When neither of these suggestions can be carried out, there IS always the chance for a picnic, requiring only 8 share- -the-work plan plus hampers or ample baskets or car- tons to hold paper cups, spoons, forks and plates as well as food, and plenty of wax paper for keeping sandwiches, cakes, rolls, etc., moist. Covered jars with tight fitting tops make excellent containers for re- freshing salads, while wide neck thermoS bottles are ideal for taking a whole hot dinner in one dish or hot soup or ice cream or Q cold din- ner. And don't forget the supply of cold drinking water, since one cannot be sure of finding Q safe water supply, Miss Nickerson urged.
