Tartan, for example, will screen out about 90 per cent af the burning rays, yet allow about 90 per cent of the tanning rays to come through. And don't forget your suntan lotion once you've applied it? reapply it after every swim, for water washes away even the best of lotions. So does excessive perspiration. To protect your eyes from the glare of the sun, glasses are good, pads of absorbent cotton better. If you choose glasses, be sure they are dark enough ' 1 A_ TT o n anci grouna 10 u. o.

It is not true that your skin is more likely to burn when wet, but beware of cloudy or misty days ? the burning rays can be just as intense as when the sun is shining. Drink plenty of water (anything with alcohol will make you feel warmer.) And if you perspire freely, a few salt tablets are a good idea.

As the season progresses, content yourself with a moderate tan.

It can go to great heights if we continue this practice or fall to the depths if we forget it. Today in our modern way of life we do not have to depend on our neighbor for protection from those who steal in the night neither do we have to get him to put out the flame if our home burns from fire but yet we do depend on him for the fundamental things that have been carried on to us in this mod ci II age. We might even stop to ask ourselves, "Just who is my neighbor?" Ho doesn't neccessarily have to live next door, especially since travel is so very fast. He may live around the block, across town or even in the same state. Yet, he is your neighbor. So when you begin to feel real independent just stop long enough to ask yourself. "How long would I last withI out my n e i g h b o r ? What would I eat, wear, or even use for a home?" Good neighbors > help any community and somehow always make our i country even greater. How about being a good neighbor?
