I)., County Health Officer. Some Suggestions For People On V arat ion Most N* .itn Caroiin:. people take their annua! vacations some time during the l.n n'hs of !;ily and Au gust. 1i:i? i.c* only to the I well-to-do in the leisure class and j the office workers and job holders ' in general, but to the large farm ! population of the State as well. In short, the roads of this State are crowded practically every day during July and August with every known type of automobile loaded to capa city with happy folks, and their bag gage, off on a trip. This is a fine procedure because it enables people to become acquainted with their fel low citizens in the other counties. It also enables the people of one sec tion of the State to learn something of the manners and customs of 'iving of the people of the other sections of the State. There are a few pre cautions, however, if happiness is to be maintained throughout the trip, and safety as well as happiness fol low the return home. Some of the precautions we would like to men tion may be enumerated as follows: For those whQ camp by the road side or in one of the many places set aside for tourist camping, the avail able water supply shot^d be careful ly scrutinized, and unless it is of known and proved purity, the drink ing water should be boiled at least " .te minutes before drinking. When there are children along who are sus ceptible ot any one of the various communicable diseases, careful in quiry shofl'd be instituted when oth er children are found in the camp, perhaps coming from a far distant section of the country. If there is any danger of exposure, the party should move on or keep the children entirely separated. This precaution also applie? to the travelers who stop in hotels and at the different resorts. The food consumed in tou uist camps or along the roadside should be carefuly chosen. This ap plies particularly to milk. Mtfk is one of the finest foods for roadside conusmption, especially for children, but unless the supply can be obtain, ed from high class dairies or pas teurized milk in some of the towns, while passing through, it would be much safer and better to purchase some of the various brands of dry o- evaoorated, unsweetened milk. The dry milk, when prepared accord ing to directions, afford., a p.Vatable substitute for fresh milk, and it is absolutely safe when taken from the can and prepared with clean water of known purity. Dry milk retains its antiscorbutic value and is there fore a safe and reliable food product for vacationists when away from their regular dairy home supply July 1, 1929. Mr. G. W. Candler, accompanied by his brother. Dr. Cand'er, of Sylca. visited relatives in Bristol, Va.. this week. They left Sylva at 6 o'clock in the morning and arrived in the Virginia city at 10:30 that mornine. making the trip of more than 180 mles in floor hours and thirty minu tes. Mr. Candler reports that roads and scenery were as fine as had ever seen. v Mrs. Bill Cleveland spent severed day? at Copperhill. Tenn., where she was the guest of friends and *ia tives.
