MARCH. 1960 OjWfii Spring Is Some of our flowers are already in bloom while the snow still lies in drifts up East. But even there spring is stirring in the ground. One brave snowdrop is sufficient promise of the earth's renewal. We fling open our coats and feel that, once again, life is worth living. There are, of course, people who prefer the winter, whose ideas of health and happiness are bound up with frigid ski slopes and skating rinks. Nature, however, seems to prefer something warmer. Statistics show that we are generally healthier in warmer weather. Babies born in spring and summer have a better chance. The national death rate is substantially lower from April through September than in the colder six months of the year. Why should this be so? There is no simple answer. Health is one of the greatest of mysteries. When you think May We Be of Service to You?

I'm a vital member of your Fire and Accident Prevention Team and if I may say so myself. deserve your cooperation for your protection. Thank you! zsis eoL umn\ > Sprung of all the billions of germs of various diseases that attn/'lr you daily, you may well wonder why you're alive at all. Fortunately, the human body is protected by an ingenious series of external and internal defenses against illness. Why do they seem to work better in warm weather? Remember man first appeared iii a warm climate. Early man lived an outdoor life with a minimum of clothing and shelter. As he learned to build shelters that could be heated, he moved into colder climates. Yet he still seems to be in the best health when he can live in a way that is nearest to the outdoor life of his primitive ancestors. So. as the sap rises in the trees and in our veins, let's get outdoors. A walk in the early-spring woods or digging in the garden is excellent springtime exercise to tone up your muscles and condition you for the months of outdoor fun ahead. s J H J Crush Kcn'pticaU es, I a^ree I do look a little like a tombstone or monument and at times 1 feel like I should be buried because so many people completely ignore me.
