Camping tips for families offered If you’ve got an urge to slip into the woods and away from your problems some summer weekend, the Chicago Motor Club-AAA has these camping tips for you and your family. First of all you'll want to investigate some of the fine equipment now available for station wagon and car vacationers. If you’re like most other campars, are limited to the trunk and possibly a car carrier for storage, you’ll want to think about packing the most comfort into the least space. For instance, when considering tents, you’ll buy with the size of your family and the type of trip in mind. Bed Down A Youngster Will you bed down a youngster or two in your car or station wagon? Would you prefer a tent entirely separate from, attached to, or even on top of your car? Will you stay put at one site or move on to new camps frequently ahd therefore, will you need a fairly permanent type of tent or one that can be rapidly set up with a minimum of effort? With these personal factors in mind, you’ll be ready to compare styles, over-all dimensions, weights, flooring, mosquito netting, and other variations in the many highly satisfactory tents now being marketed. Sleeping bags and air mattresses (or station wagon-sized mattresses) provide more warmth and comfort than cots and take up no more room. "Single-doulde” bags with duck-and-down or miracle fibre fillers are a good buy for comfort and adaptability. A gasoline or propane stove and an ice box large enough to hold a 25 pound block of ice will simplify food preparation and storage. Nested aluminum pans, cups and plates which provide for all your cooking, eating, and dish washing needs, are available in compact sets for four to six persons. On the other hand, plastic dishes are becoming increasingly popular, and those long time favorites, enamel cups, are easy to handle when filled with a steaming beverage or soup. And don’t forget a plastic water bucket, a shovel, an efficient lantern and of course, a hatchet. Toilet Needs Toilet needs are simplified when you carry a portable toilet with disposable plastic liners and for the baby, disposable diapers plus a small supply of regular diapers for night use. A flexible plastic wash bowl is a standard item of camping equipment. Towelettes for waterless washing en route are available under various brand names, and you’ll find them a great convenience, especially when you take to the road with children. Many prospective campers are puzzled by the laundry question, but the Chicago Motor Club reports that with the exception of some of the more distant areas of Canada, you’re seldom far from a community with an automatic laundry where your clothes will be washed and dried while you spend an hour sightseeing. DripAy fabrics are of course a blessing to the camper’s wardrobe. Don’t forget rain gear. Teen-age campers will want to pack their swimming and fishing gear and possibly the badminton set. In many parks their square dancing and horseback riding outfits can also be put to good use. First Aid Equipment If you’re headed for the deep backwood, augment your standard first-aid equipment with a snakebite kit as a simple form of insurance. Also remember an insect repellent stick or spray plus an antihistamine to lessen the aftereffects, when the bugs just won’t be repelled. A timely wash with a bar of yellow naphtha laundry soap after contact with poison ivy may prevent a lot of misery too.

Tractor pullers to converge for competition in Indy

The top tractor pullers in the Midwest will converge on the Indiana State Fairgrounds for a split six-days of pulling competition beginning Thursday, August 18th. Owners of the big machines will be looking to take home some spending money (oyer 625,000 in prizes) and accumulate National Tractor Pulling Association championship points toward qualification for the Grand National Indy Super Pull V, to be held in the Coliseum at the Indiana State Fairgrounds next February. , The Indiana State Fair Tractor Pull is one of the most important NTPA meets in the nation. Over 60,000 pull fans are expected to attend the contests during the run of the fair, according to Beryl J. “Jake” Grimme, state fair director in charge of the events. The split six-day schedule begins on opening day of the fair, Thursday, August 18, at 2 p.m., when the Hoosier State Tractor Pullers Association sponsors pulls in the Super Stock 5,500 lbs. class, followed by unaltered 10,000 pounds competition on the Machinery Field tractor pull strip. At 7 p.m. the 9.500 pounds Super Stockers will compete, followed by Modified 7,200 pound machines. The meet continues at 2 p.m. on Summer brings problems for some Winter is commonly the time colds and flu and sneezes. But there are some diseases and accidents that do their worst In hot weather. Some of these are obvious. Sun strokes and heat strokes are more likely to occur in July and August than in January. Too much exposure and too much exercise in the hot sun may produce sun stroke. Prolonged excessive beat, either in or out of doors, can cause heat stroke. In either case it is important to keep the victim cool and call a physician at once. Sunburn has hospitalized many a vacationer. Everyone should know, says the American Medical Association, that gradual exposure to the sun, beginning with a few minutes a day, is the recommended course. But many of us forget to watch the clock and to take precautions against sunburn in the excitement of the first day at camp or at the seashore. The bacteria that cause diarrhea and stomach upsets multiply much faster in lukewarm foods, and it’s important to keep cold foods in refrigeration and to keep hot foods hot. Swimming is fine exercise and also is good for cooling off on a hot day. Those with sinus or ear trouble should be careful about swimming. Swimmers should make certain that the water is safe from pollution. A clear mountain stream may look attractive. It also may be loaded with germs. And there still are cases of typhoid and disentery from drinking untreated water. Camprs can disinfect water by boiling or by commercial disinfectant tablets. If there are horses or cows around, there is likely to be tetanus. Tetanus (lockjaw) is very serious. It can be prevented by injection of tetanus toxoid If your family hasn’t had tetanus boosters recently, get your shots before going to the country. Flies, roaches, mosquitoes and ticks are troublesome in the hot months. Insecticides and screens usually can keep them under control. In tick country it is important to make a close examination after disrobing and remove all ticks.
