Take It Easy
During Sumner,
Writer Advises
Do you worry about feeling
loiy in the summertime? If *o,
don't let your conscience bother
you. More leisurely activity, both
at work and at play, means not
only less physical discomfort, but
makes you far less vulnerable to
accidents and injuries.
According to _ studies of hot
weather accidents by the Insti
tute for Safer Living of the
American Mutual Liability In
surance Company, over-exertion
often plays an important part in
drownings, sunstroke, heat ex
haustion and many accidental in
juries around the home or while
on vacation.
Heavy physical activity in the.
hot sun can be really dangerous
uhlcas you are conditioned for
by an outdoor occupation. Those |
who work or play outdoors only
occasionally should approach
these pursuits with a certaia de?
gree of laziness.
Gardening and lawn work are
among the most common activi
ties leading to over-exertion,
which in turn, may lead to sun
stroke or perhaps an injury caus
ed by thoughtless use of a garden
tool. Take auch work in small
doses on hot sunny days and pre
ferably save your heaviest work
for cloudy days or cool evenings.
Always wear a head covering
when gardening or when doing
lawn work in the sun.
Adults especially, have little
business indulging in such strenu
ous sports as baseball or tennis
when the mercury is soaring, un
less, of course, they are profes
sionals. Wise golfers will take
short breathers after 'completing
each hole.. Children and teen
agers should be encouraged not
to over-indulge in the more ac
tive sports and games.
A factor causing many swim
ming accidents is staying in the
water too long when you are un
accustomed to it. This leads to
exhaustion. Many fall to reach
shore. Rest frequently, especially
when swimming in deep water.
Danger always lurks in the
woods for tired hikers. Fatigue
induces thoughtless actions which

Fatigue while driving on lone

These are only a few of num

Rev. Mr. Blaylock
Now In County ?
Dear Friends,
We are now temporarily locat
ed near Boone and will be avail
able for appointments for the
next ten Sundays.
One of the main reasons for
coming here was because of the
hrfat and I was not well in States
ville. We expect to remain here
until the last week in August.
During the time we are here
we want to visit as many church
es in this section as possible. We
will appreciate anything that
friends may do to help us to get
out these appointments and would
like instructions as to how to
reach places where appointments
are arranged.
Wherever we go, we carry a
supply of my own composition;
one being my life story of exper
iences as a missionary to China
and ? more recent one on the
second coming of Christ.
YOurs in Christ,
T. L. BLAYLOCK
