flcutcy,
Along with other mail, I regularly receive a copy of her newsletter from
Sheila Webb, our area agent with State Farm Insurance. There is always
something in her "Good Neighbor News" that is of interest.
In her recent mailing there is information about "Staying Safe in the
Summer Sun" which is worth passing on.
Whether at the beach or in the backyard, the sun's rays can pack a powerful
punch. Over-exposure to the sun can cause skin cancer. While there is no way of
completely eliminating the risk, there are a few precautions you Can take:
•Do not sun bathe.(This will not please a lot of people, especially young
women, but in the long run it is wise advice.)
•Protect your skin by covering up or wearing sun screen. Avoid sun ex-
posure between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak hours for harmful
U V rays. Apply a sun screen a half hour before going outside if you must be
out during those hours.
•Examine your skin. Look for new growths or discolorations that last for
more than two weeks.
•Protect your children with these same precautions. Find summer activi-
ties during those danger hours, such as reading, indoor games or some suit-
able TV. Teach them some simple cooking, sewing or other household skills.
Both boys and girls will benefit from this experience,
•Another summertime activity is to make use of the public library. If
your family is not familiar with this valuable public facility, it is their loss,
and yours.
During the winter months I regularly walk for 15 or 20 minutes in the
halls of our hospital. The exercise is good for me, the hospital halls are safe
from obstacles, cracks in the floor, wind and sun, and the folks I encounter
are invariably smiling and pleasant. Four times around the halls of the build-
ing take me about 20 minutes, more if I stop to visit a bit, and that is enough
for legs the age of mine.
As the weather warms, my walks often are on the Canadian River bridge
which is also an easy walk. There are a number of other regular walkers
there, many of them walking (sometimes jogging) the length of the bridge
and back. That's more than enough for me, but I admire the folks who do it.
A number of Canadian residents walk or jog, or bicycle our streets, too,
some early in the morning, others in the late afternoon and evening. It is
good to know that Canadian residents ftre: aware of the benefits of regular,
but non-stressful, exercise. From youth to old age moderate exercise like
walking is beneficial.
Incidentally, walking is a great remedy for pot-bellies, of which we have
more than a few!
