Your Child
Today
BY DOROTHY v.
WHIPPLE, MD.

The hotter the day, the more
tempting a nice cool spray of
water. Children love to put on
bathing suits and run in and out
of the spray of the lawn sprinkler.
It's fun and it seems harmless
enough. However, there are a few
hazards, especially for tiny tots.
If the days is very holland it's
on such days that this idea comes
up-the difference in temperature
between the air and the water may
be very great.
Little children chill quite easily.
If a child becomes thoroughly
chilled with this water play he's
very likely to come down with a
sore throat the next day.
1t may seem like a paradox to
get a sore throat from chilling
when thermometer is lowering in
the COS. It's the sad truth just
the same.
Older children seem much better
able to withstand a reasonable
amount of chilling without bad ef-
fects. But the little tots. the
twos, threes, tours and even fives.
have not built up much resistance
to this kind of abuse. Not all, of
course, but a fair number develop
colds and sore threats after chill
ing.
Since it's such a lot of fun to
play in the spray, is there anything
to do to make it safe?
YeS-avoid chilling.
Have your sprinkler play when
it isn't so bliStering hot. On a
warm sunny day-not a very hot
one-there's less danger that the
air temperature and water temper

Hot ROdders' Club
Can Teach Safety
To Teen-Agers

If your teen-ager takes out his
youthful exuberance on the family
car, here are some tested methods
to get him and his friends to take
it easy and slow down, as tried
out in various sections of the coun-
try.
Hot rodders show off safely in a
teen-age roadeo, sponsored in
many communities by the Junior
Chamber of Commerce. This is a
series of tests in driver Skills.
The take it easy" races teach
drivers economy as the young
SterS try to see how many miles
they can get on a gallon.
Racing against par features an
obstacle course. First a police
officer rides over the course obey
ing all traffic rules. Then con-
testantS do the same. Object of
this race is to get youngsters to
obey the rules instinctively.
The drag strip" which started
in California, is straight line
track devised with the hot rodder
IN mind. If the teen-agers want to
see how fast they can go-this is
the place to do it, where it is sup
ervised and free from perestrians
and other cars.
Hot rod clubs have sprung up all
over the country to teach members
to abide by safety rules.
Another way to cut down on the
1850, 900 yearly accidents in which
persons under 20 are involved is
to teach them the right way to
drive while they are still in high
school.
The American Automobile As
ISOLATION reports that more than
$50, 900 high school students took
behind the-wheel training courses
last year and an additional 259,000
had only classroom instruction.
One-fourth of the nations second
airy schools participated.
Cost per student for the full
course is only $36-less than the
cost of repairing one crumpled
fender.-(P Newsfeature.

The campers will use West Mar
teiio Towers and the facilities OF
the County Beach from 10 o'clock
in the morning until 3 o'clock IN
the afternoon.
Only Girl Scouts who register
will be permitted to take part IN
the program. Parents will register
their daughters and sign permls-
sion slips. A registration fee OF fiji
ty-cents will be charged.
Each troop will make its own
arrangements for transportation to
and from the camp site.
The Council camping committee
is planning a program that will in
cIude work toward the "Salt Wa
ter'' proficiency badge; arts and
crafts, games and swimming. ''Na-
tive" crafts will be stressed.
A highlight of the day camp will
be a lookout" - the girls will
bring food to be prepared out-of-
doors. Other days, the Scouts viii
bring "nose-bag" lunches.
Troop committee members are
requested to contact troop leaders
to assist them in making plans for
the camp.
Any one who has had experience
or training in camping, water sa-
fety, or craft work and who is will
ing to give a few hours time dur
ing the day camp is asked to con-
tact Earl Adams, chairman of the
Florida Keys Girl Scout Council
camp committee.
Tentative plans call for overall
chairmen of the various phases of
the program with troop leaders and
other individuals assisting.
In this way no one person will
be expected to give more than a
few hours during the week, pro-
vided that enough volunteer assiS-
tantS are available.
Over two hundred Girl Scouts are
expected to register for the Day
