LL 8 THE DALLAS POST ~ THURSDAY, MAY 7, 1964 Physical Fitness At Summer Camp An estimated four million chil- dren between 9 and 16 years ofage will attend the approximately 4,000 summer camps this year. Camping is an experience in group living in a natural environ- ment. According to the American Camping Association, it utilizes the resources of the out-of-doors to con- tribute to mental, physical, social and spiritual growth. Many objec- tives of summer camps for children are promoted to help in developing the individual. Camping encourages social ad- justment for the child, teaches him to get along with others, and aids him in developing independence and reliability. It encourages a variety of skills and is a source of fun and adventure. And summer camping improves the health ofthe child. Physical fitness programs are part of summer camp activities and in a natural atmosphere they are enjoyable as well as beneficial. The physically under-developed child usually responds with enthusiasm to such activities as swimming, run- ning, rowing, hiking and wood chopping. Resident camp standards of the American Camping Association are high, and apply to camp per- sonnel, program activities, camp sites, facilities and equipment, sani- tation, safety, and health. About three-fourths of summer camps are operated by organiza- tions such as YMCA, YWCA, Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts, and they attract almost ninety percent of the children who go to summer camps. The other camps are privately owned and operated for profit or public camps operated by tax-sup- ported agencies such as municipal park and recreation departments and school systems. (IID REG.

DALLAS Dry Your Clothes The Electric Way How much longer does it take to dry your clothes at nightthan inthe day time? Obviously therewill be no time change if you own a flameless electric clothes dryer. A recent check of laundering habits in a small town revealed the interesting fact that a large number of people are washing and drying their clothes at night. This change in our washing hab- its has been brought about because many homemakers hold daytime jobs. But simply because they have to do their laundry in the evening hours doesn’t mean they want it to be a labor —even for love. The flameless electric clothes dryer, according to the Live Better Electrically Program of the Edison Electric Institute, is a working girl’s best friend — probably because no other appliance can boast of sav- ing her more steps and energy. No longer need she worry about “bringing in the wash’ before she sets off for her nine o’clock job. In today’s total electric Gold Me- dallion Home the place for your flameless laundry equipment is al- ready reserved. Gold Medallion Homes are built to accommodate not only your electric clothes wash- er but your electric clothes dryer as well — two appliances that help you experience the joy of total electric living. Be Ready For Camping Trip For would-be woodsmen, the budding trees mean just one thing; the camping season is on its way. But for many novice campers, that first trip into the woods can be a disturbing experience. Fireshave a way of not lighting, tent poles tilt, fish don’t bite, mosquitoes do, and life in the city looks better all the time. E Although it won't insure the fish's appetite for bait, a little preplanning can make life in the woods easier. For instance, you don’t have to load yourself down with cleaning materials to keep your camping gear in shape. In addition to the basic equip- ment, you'll find that a familiar kitchen helper, a roll of Kleenex paper towels, can serve a multitude of purposes. Use them to dry off fishing gear, boots and swim caps before packing and moving to the next camp site. Paper towels also are useful for cleaning grills at camp sites and for wiping out skillets and pans for easier washing. As placemats on picnic tables or napkins, they’re plenty adequate when you're roughing it. tractor that gets things done! estates or institutions, with its big capacity, operating ease and economy.
