Summer has its hazards as
wen as pleasures. I have al
ready written several times
about suntanning. Today I
want to bring you some in
formation and suggestions
about some of the physical dis
comforts to which outdoor life
pexposes you.
Part of the fatigue you feel
in very hot weather comes from
loss of salt and water in the
tissues through prespiration.
Most doctors feel that you
should force fluids for this
reason. In other words, drink
water at regular intervals
whether or not you are thirsty.
Also, use more salt than usual
on your food. Take salt tablets
only on your doctors advice.
THIS is not usually necessary
nnless you are doing heavy
physical exercise in hot
weather.
( Athletes Foot
Athletes foot is more likely
to add you to its list of victims
in hot weather than in cold.
The reason for this is the fact
that damp. perspiring feet pro-
vide a perfect atmosphere for
the growth of the fungus which
causes this trouble. Also, we
spend more time near swim
ming pools, in lighthouses and
shower rooms.
In order to avoid athletes
loot wear wooden clogs when
you walk about locker rooms
and showers and the edge of
the pool. Also, take especially
good care of your feet. Dry
them carefully. Change your
