WHAT DOCTORS SAY ABOUT:
• Summer Hazards
(One in a series of dis-
cussions about summer
health problems)
Q. I can hardly go on a va-
cation because of trainsigk-
ness. Would I get just as
8"fcick if I traveled by air?
A. Doctors say a person can
b« affected by one type of
motion and not by another.
For example, you might do
quite well in a small boat
but be made sick by the
•slower movements of bigger
ships. A dancer who ran
spin like a top without anv
discomfort may get deathly-
sick after a few ups and
downs on a seesaw.
Q. Are drugs effective in
preventing motion sickness?
A. Yes. In sea trials con-
ducted under the direction
of the U. S. Department of
Defense, special drugs were
found to be helpful. If you
arc subject to motion sick-
ness, get advice from your
doctor.
Q. Is there a difference be-
tween heat exhaustion and
heat stroke?
A. Yes. In heat exhaustion
there is gradual develop-
ment of weakness and fa-
tigue. As the condition pro-
gresses there may be vom-
iting and muscular cramps.
The heart beats rapidly and
the patient has a cold, clam-
my skin. Symptoms of heat
'stroke are pretty much the
same except the patient’s
skin is hot and dry. Body
temperature may go as high
as 105 degrees or above.
Heat stroke is by far the
most dangerous condition of
the two.

ledge which only a physician can apply by personally attending
the patient.

by N. A. Cravens, chairman of CARD OF THANKS
Hardin County Savings Bonds
committee.
‘‘We have now achieved
45.5% of our 1958 goal of
$273,000”, Chairman Cravens
reported.
During the first five months
of this year Texans increased _
their purchases of Savings !j
Bonds 4.3%. Nationally the
sales have increased 8% dur-
ing this period.
Texas sales for the first five
months of this year were $75,-
816,519 which represented
43.3% of the 1958 goal of $175,-
000,000. This increase in sales
is a result of efforts of the
Savings Bonds volunteers who
are conducting Share-In-Am-
erica campaigns in most of our
major cities and counties
throughout the Lone Star state.
I wish to thank my friend*
for the visits, flowers, prayers
and cards during my stay in
the hospital.
May God bless each and ev-
eryone.
Mrs. C. F. (Aunt
Tenie) Bounds.
CARD OF THANKS
First, I thank my God and
my friends who were so nice to
me for the flowers and the
sweet cards. I thank Dr. Cope-
