Minute Workout" television program, a

tive" vacation alternatives.
Home health care products and medicine
are also an important part of the HEALTH

is about improving the quality of our lives,"
says show manager Dennis Kalichuk, "and
that means different things to different peo-
pie. For some it means being able to stop
smoking, finding a new healthy activity is
important to others, or it may mean learn-
ing about good nutrition. And it means
something different to those in a
wheelchair, physically challenged, or in
need of home care. The HEALTH AND
FITNESS EXHIBITION tries to provide
something for everyone!"

tion, you don't have to choose only between
a hamburger or hot dog. There will be a
selection of tasty, "healthy" foods for you to
Sit down and sample.

on Friday: noon to 10 p.m. on Saturday; and
noon to 5 p.m. on Sunday. Admission is $3.75
for adults, $2.75 for ages 6-15, and children
under 6 are admitted free.
"Be bike smart" aimed at cyclists
Canada has eight million cyclists and
more than three -million are children. The
largest numbers of deaths and injuries
through cycling accidents occur in children
five to 14 years of age. in response to the
success of The Easter Seal Society's, On-
tario program, 'Be bike smart' is being
launched on a national level by the Cana-
dian Rehabilitation Council for the Disabled
(CRCD 1 and sponsored by The Hospital for
Sick Children Foundation to reduce the
number of disabling and fatal bicycling
accidents.
A study conducted by the Canadian Acci-
dent Injury Reporting and Evaluation
t CAIRE 1 project, .January '82 - December
'85, encompassed five major hospitals
across Canada and reported 8,669 accidents
involving bicycles -- 3,229 of those accidents
were head injuries.
Because of reporting procedures, there is
a suspected under estimate of accidents
with minimal injuries to young cyclists. So it
is safe to say that cycling injuries are a ma-
jor problem and with the increase in the
number of families participating in the
sport, the number of accidents will increase
comparably.
The advantages of cycling as a physical
activity greatly outweigh the risks. The
number of accidents can be reduced through
education. Children can learn the proper use
and care of their bicycles and the impor-
tance of wearing protective gear.
The 'Be bike smart' pamphlet, available
in French and English. is designed to help
families teach their children to understand
the importance of bicycle safety and in-
cludes information on reducing the number
of injuries through education. Learning
bicycling maturity is a family reponsibility
and should be taken seriously. Free copies
are available by writing to The Easter Seal
Society, Public' Relations Dept., 24 Ferrand

CLINTON NEWS -RECORD, WEDNESDAY, JULY 22, 1987—Page 17
First aid
or heat stroke
The wonderful sun is wh1 uguner fun is
all about, but too much sip ca arm you.
Take these simple precautions to avoid heat
exhaustion and heat stroke. 1
Wear hats and light colored long-sleeved
shirts if you're going to be in the sun for a
long time, sitting in a boat fishing or out on
the golf course. Use modern sunscreens to
ward off sunburn.
You and your young children can avoid
heat exhaustion by taking it easy during the
hottest part of the day. Don't play tennis or
bike hike: Sit down in the shade for a while
and sip a cool drink. Have a rest after lunch.
The symptoms of heat exhaustion may be
muscular cramps, headaches, palor, fain-
ting, a weak pulse and rapid, shallow
breathing. Get the victim into a cool place
and if he's Conscious, give him cool water to
sip. If he's sweating or vomiting or has
cramps or diarrhea, add a half teaspoon of
salt to a pint of water. If he loses con-
sciousness, or recovers slowly, get him to a
doctor.
Heat stroke is less common and much
more serious. Its symptoms include flushed
face and dry skin, high temperature, noisy
breathing, headache, dizziness, un-
consciousness. A youngster may have
convulsions.
The first aid treatment is to remove the
victim's clothing, wrap him in a cool wet
sheet, or put him in a cool bath to reduce the
temperature as quickly as possible. When it
is reduced to 38 degrees C (101 degrees F ),
he should be placed on his side in the
recovery position with fans directing cool
air on him. When his temperature is near
normal, cover him with a dry sheet. If his
temperature drops and then rises again,
repeat the treatment. The victim must get
to a hospital, but he might die if there is
delay in lowering his temperature.
Bee, wasp stings can be fatal
Bee and wasp stings can be fatal. If the
victim shows signs of allergic reaction
(swelling around the eyes and mouth, hives,
severe nausea and difficulty in breathing)
seek medical aid immediately. Start ar-
tificial respiration if necessary and take
precautions to prevent shock ( reassure vic-
tim, keep warm).
If there is no allergic reaction to the sting,
remove the stinger by using tweezers.
Remove the stinger by depressing the skin
around the puncture. Avoid squeezing it. An-
tihistamine creams, rubbing alcohol, a
weak amonia solution or a solution of bicar-
bonate of soda may be applied immediately.
If the sting is in the mouth, give a
