Many drivers just can’t wait till April to make fools of themselves. ■ O 1 O'"- ■ Excessive heat takes more than four times as many lives annually as excessive cold. Heat cramps and heat exhaustion come from over-exposure to the sun or intense heat. Heat cramps are caused by excessive losses of salt from the system through perspiration and are identified by cramps in the abdomen and in afm and leg muscles. Heat exhaustion, which does not always accompany heat cramps, has these symptoms: paleness, chills, dizziness, nausea, abnormal sweating, rapid and shallow breathing, rapid and weak pulse, weakness, below-normal temperature and skin either hot or cold and clammy. The National Safety Council urges all to avoid unnecessary exposure and take the most careful precautions to avoid such dire results. 0 o July is rarely thought of* as a month involving little but heat and humidity but it is the good old summer time. In the distant regions of our universe, planets anjl stars have juxtapositioned themselves into ordered spots and brought the solstice. Time, in terms of the annual cycle, has started down the slide toward autumn. Nature, however, is still near the height of lushness and the many hours of sunlight are pushing crops toward maturity. There is rich music in July which is full of meaning and throbbing with intensity. Saint Swithin’s Day (July 15) is watched, tradition having it that if it rains this day there will be forty successive days of rain. There are July days when one can almost see the corn grow, the cherries redden, and the appless swell on the bow. Precious sunlight is performing its magic. Man cannot under- . stand the secrets of life, but he has the faith and is content to live with the master plan as it A) * ' unfdds is July,
