On my visits to Kathmandu I try to catch up on the latest by reading months old Time, Newsweek, etc. I do get the Bulletin and news from home — which is great and my Peace Corps buddies read the Bulletin avidly I’m grateful to the Vinings for mailing it to me and since I will be leaving here in September, I'll cancel my subscription the first of August. Many irons seem to be in the fire here at once. Some will wait action for awhile. I still haven't made a decision about extending transfer or early termination or continue the course charted at the beginning. I do plan to travel (back packing) as much as possible before returning. I will be home for Christmas of ’80. My blood must be thinning as I have been more tolerant of the heat and humidity. It has not seemed as hot here, however 1 have lost from 165 pounds to 142. I'm down right skinny! I haven’t been this light since my freshman year in high school I'll gain it back when I get home to Mom’s cooking I'm anxious to see everyone and friends at Warren Wilson I do appreciate all the letters from people there and in Tryon and North Carolina. It has been their letters of encourage ment and prayers that has helped greatly. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the people here and working with them. It has been an experience I shall never forget . . . What or where next? See you Christmas, til then God bless John II. (Jack) Martin American Peace Corp. Kathmandu, Nepal There are a lol of jokes about traveling salesmen (and saleswomen), but their problems are really not funny. Especially since some of them affect their health. Think about it. A travel ¬ ing salesman is in his car anywhere from 6 to 8 hours per day, five days per week. That’s 30 to 40 hours a week in which he’s getting little or no exercise. At night the salesman may spend another 2-6 hours doing paper work at his desk. And then he finally settles down to a strange bed that is often saggy. What this all adds up to is a lack of physical activity and poor posture. Poor posture by day . . . and by night. Lack of exercise can lead to poor circulation and fa tigue. Poor posture can crowd the lungs, inhibit breathing and tire the back, neck and shoulders. Your doctor of chiro practic, a specialist in treat ing health problems related to the back and spine, has some good suggestions for the traveling person. The first few deal with maintain ing the structural integrity of the body. Since the salesman spends so much time in his car, he should choose it carefully. Look for adjustable seats, firm seat cushioning, ample leg room, sealing that lets him sit on his rump and not at the end of his spine. Select a car that has dash board instruments which can be reached without strain. Once people believed that the birds begin to mate on Valentine's Day, February 14. As a child, England's Queen Victoria was nicknamed "Drina." To gel better sitting sup port for driving, fold a bath towel to about four inches wide. Place the towel across the back with the lower border just above the crests h i ^j? b ° nes This will help hold the back in a better position, decreasing fatigue and backache. Wien doing paper work make sure your desk chair is firm and supportive. Sit erect with your feet planted Firmly on the floor. Change jutting positions frequently Take some rest breaks, walk around, go to the bathroom get a dnnk, do other things to break up the work pattern. w ork Health Views ® DID YOU HEAR THE ONE ABOUT THE TRAVELING SALESMAN? The American Chiro practic Association and your doctor of chiropractic remind you that when you permit your spine to sag, you are allowing muscles to relax and ligaments to be placed under lension as the segments of the spine reach their limit of motion. This can cause many types of health problems. So remem ber to sit up straight! Now, here are some exer cises you can do while driv ing 1 Park your car farther away from your call, and take a brisk walk (provided you don’t have to carry heavy sample cases). To keep in shape, som* sales people even run to and from appointments. 2. Roll your head around as you wail at stoplights. 3. Stretch your legs and wiggle your feet whenever possible. I Tighten muscles with about one half of your strength in an isometric series. Work on the legs, thighs, buttocks, chest, stomach, arms, back and shoulders. 5. Keep a hard rubber all on the front seat. Grasp it in one hand, squeeze for ive counts, then switch hands. 6. Take occasional driving reaks, during which you should do some exercises. Exercises might include side Bonds, toe touches, and squats, D?" 1 f ° r 8 et to exercise X 1 Wecke nds, But don't ,1 ' ^Pooially if you week eXercisc during the you'll 0 ? ^ Physically Fit, efnJ Cel bctter - be more fid '? nt and fceI more con '‘dent as a salesman.
