These visits may range from Saturday afternoon picnics just outside city limits to summer-long stays at camps or cottages. But in mosf eai-'es, vacationists find themselves in circumstances where they must do without the routine health protection afforded them daily in the city. They must he alert to an entirely new set of dangers not normally encountered in urban life. -.; The June issue of Canada's Health and Welfare published by the Ottawa government emphasizes two main dangers to the holidaymaker, and outlines protective measures. . In the first place, the cottager or camper will normally find he has no guarantee as to the safety of drinking water. So, exercising caution and common sense, the camper will boil the water before using, just to make sure. And no experienced camper attempts to accomplish vigorous physical achievements the first day or so. At first, while his muscles lack tone from a long winter of comparative inactivity, he takes it easy. Gradually, as his body becomes accustomed to the exertion, lie increases his scope always keeping something in reserve. . The veteran holidaymaker never overexerts, particularly during hot weather; never allows himself to become chilled from too long immersion in water; never swims or boats alone. A moment of carelessness might well ruin an entire vacation. Regard for safety, which soon becomes automatic, is' insurance of many more happy holidays. right now, thin the British The school operates irom two Commonwealth there are more class rooms one, indoors, at 1 Zionists to Float Bond Tactical Air Group headquarters, Edmonton, where academic instruction Is given; the other, the great outdoors, located at Henry House Airfield amid towering mountains in Javier Na- IirtuMy, mphiytri like thi kind ut nun wbu rmdiiy mtf,i TORONTO P Edward Gel-1 tional Park. ray . . .
