Mumma FLORIN," PA. may-25-tf FLORIN, PA. Res. Phone 128R2 Business, dec. R14 By The Lancaster Automobile Club Reports from the eighty-six A. A. A. clubs in Pennsylvania indicate that while travel information queries have | fallen off slightly this season, in com- | parison with the several previous years, requests for data concerning { trips within the State have increased | according to the Lancaster Automo- bile Club. Many who took vacation tours of ten days, two weeks or more in former years, now arc confining their motor travel to day or week-end trips and, in consequence, are not go- ing so far from home. General economic conditions are re- flected in the number of people who are taking advantage of the State camp facilities this season, according to S. Edward Gable, president of the Club. “Many who cannot afford expensive vacations at resorts,” he said, “are seizing the opportunities offered in the commonwealth’s parks, where outdoor living quarters are available by the day or by the season and where a va- cation in the very heart of Pennsyl- vania’s most beautiful areas can be enjoyed by an entire family at prac- tically no cost except food and trans- portation. Thousands are vacationing in that way and finding it much to their liking, our survey reveals.” The Auto Club called attention to the fact that Pennsylvania has fifty State forest public camps, suitable for camping and picnicking. Tables, bench- es, shelters, fireplaces and pure water are provided for the convenience of the public. In addition there are nine State parks, each with a distinct his- torical significance, and nine State forest parks, A list of these can be obtained by applying to the State De- partment of Forests and Waters, Har- risburg, and camp site permits are ob- tained from the officer in charge of the reservation, who will help select a suitable site, “More than ever before, Pennsyl- vanians are realizing this year that it is worth their while to see their home State and enjoy the many recreational advantages it offers,” Mr. Gable stated. “Thousands from outside this com- monwealth are being attracted here by the historic shrines, beautiful scenery and numerous other features and, re- turning home, are more than satisfied with their visit. “Let us all bear in mind that we can help in this ‘See Pennsylvania’ move- ment by seeing our home State first and, at the same time, do all we can to make the traveler welcome when he visits our community. Courteous traffic officers and individual citizens who do their share in welcoming the tourist when opportunity offers aid materially in keeping Pennsylvania in the forefront of states motorists want to visit.” ree ttl ee Cash is Risky In making application for licens- es, fishermen are requested by the Department of Revenue to use eith- er check or postal money order as cash is forwarded at the applicant’s risk. Stamps cannot be accepted as payment for a license. Sending stamps causes delay in the appli- cant receiving his license and the loss of several days fishing. etl ene: Prevent Weed Growth BASS FISHERMEN TRY NORTH BRANCH The North Branch of the Sus- quehanna River is now in excellent condition for bass fishing, and fine catches are being made, Fish Com- missioner, Oliver M. Deibler, said today. This stream attracts fisher- men from all parts of the east, and ranks as one of the best bass and ‘pike waters in the state. The popularity of the North Branch with angler’s has made counties through which it flows a vacationland for the tourists and sportsmen. Renting of boats and cottages along the stream consti- tutes a thriving business. Mrs. George McCabe, wife of the game protector in Bradford county, registered 2200 persons to whom she rented boats last fishing season at Wysox in the Branch. nm Historical Events Sunday, July 31 John Ericsson, “The was born in 1803.

APPEL, SECRETARY OF HEALTH “In the past few weeks the number of accidental drownings has markedly increased. Which suggests that an ad- ditional warning with respect to water | ports is required. It really is too bad | that the work of sanitarians and health officials who have thrown every pos- | sible safeguard around the citizen | should have all their work nullified so far as a particular individual is concerned, simply by the person's] carelessness in connection with swim- | ming or boating. But it is the sad | fact nevertheless,” states Doctor Theo- | dore B. Appel, Secretary of Health. | “A study of the reports reaching the | Department unquestionably indicates | that by far the larger number of | swimming fatalities were occasioned | by over-confidence. Self-styled ‘ex- | pert’ swimmers, sure of their water | prowess, undertook to swim around | the pier, across the lake, or otherwise taxed their strength, drowning in con- sequence. “While undoubtedly swimming is one of the best of sports, not only in sum- mer but in winter also when inside sanitary pools are available, one should indeed be very sure of his capacities before undertaking more than an aver- age swimming effort. Incidentally, no matter how fine a swimmer one may be, it is unsafe to solo the effort. The unexpected, such as so-called ‘cramps’ or an unaccountable and sudden ex- haustion, can conceivably happen to the best swimmer at which times itis exceedingly handy to have help near by. “Perhaps, ‘rocking the boat,” more | frequently the canoe, is responsible for' the second largest number of the drownings this season. Hilarity and fun have their places in the general scheme of things, but when these are carried into a boat or a canoe to the point of capsizing it and drowning the passengers, that is carrying it entirely too far as everyone will agree.
