The naturally speaking by, steve cooke Winter means brilliant days with the sun shining through crisp, humidity free air; nights bright with stars -whose glimmer penetrates the dry winter at- mosphere. tmosphere. For some, winter means exhilarating exercise on sunny ski slopes in the dry cold that doesn't feel as cold as the temperature says it is. For others, winter may mean being snug, warm and dry indoors, while snow and sleet make the outdoors disagreeable. Indoors, perhaps, you are part of a jolly group around a roaring fire that keeps the cold and damp at bay. These conditions are hard on the complexion and lead to ry skin problems, but while dry skin may be the mot common of wintertime skin disorders, frostb' and chapping are theones that come most read' y to mind when wintertime is mentioned. Frostbite is a serious condition, made even more serious by the unfortunate fact that almost everything that popular legend and outdoor folk wisdom tell you to do about it is aswrong aswrong can be. Frostbite generally strikes the tips of the fingers and toes, the rims and lobes of the ears, or the tip of the nose. As a result of cold exposure, the skin turns pale and waxy, tingles unplea tly, and finally, gets numb. Numbnesscause f alarm. Itmeans that the cold has penetrated the skin d affected the nerves that transmit pain signals to t brain. And with no pain signals to warn us, tissu destruction can go on unchecked. Ask any backwoods sage what to do about frostbite and the odds are good that he'll advise you to rub the affected areas briskly with a handful of snow or douse them in ice water. No! No! No! Don't! These procedures will only mangle already damaged tissue. Don't massage, ruby pat, or otherwise move frost- bitten parts any more than absolutely necessary. See your doctor immediately. It may seem obvious to the point of silliness to tell anyone to wear warm clothes in wintertime, but dressing warmly will cut down your chances of frostbite. Protect your ears with ear muffs or ear flaps; your face with a ski mask, your fingers with mittens, and your toes with heavy socks and waterproof footgear. Except for grave medical emergencies such as frostbite, Campho-Phenique can be used in relieving many of winter's mild skin discomforts. The analgesic - antiseptic will come in handy, for example, to relieve pain and help prevent infection of cold sores, now widely known by their real name, herpes simplex. These exasperating viral eruptions are triggered by any kind of stress - and cold is a stress. Before the swelling develops the patient may feel a characteristic throbbing or tingling of the skin where the cold sore is forming. A "common accompaniment to winter is the common cold, and not the least of a cold's miseries is the irritation that develops around the nostrils. A few dabs of Campho-Phenique will afford welcome relief to those inflamed spots. Not so well known is the fact that winter's colds and coughs lower the skin's resistance to irritation, and may exacerbate eczema. Campho-Phenique gel or liquid will relieve the pain and itching of patches of eczema, but it is preferable to avoid the irritation in the first place. If you have a cold and are subject to ec- zema, stay out of the wind as much as possible and don't wear scratchy, fuzzy sweaters or scarves. four-year-old gelding by Iron - Cheyenne Girl now has seven wins, two seconds and two thirds from 18 starts in 1981, good for earnings of $3,400 and a 2:07 pacing record. Betty &ram was fourth for co -Owner -driver Carl Fisher and his brother Grant of Goderich in the fifth. Randy McLean was second with Shiaway Red for Frances Edwards of Arkona in the sixth.

The agreement covers White Pine, Red Pine and a grove of Walnut. The acreage covered by this agreement covers ap- proximately 20 acres divided into three separate areas so does not include too much of our 80 acre farm. There will be no cost to the Club for this work if the trees are not cut or the farm sold within 15 years. This agreement along with the Junior Club program for cutting trails through the remaining area should help to make ita good spot for a nature hike for anyone who enjoys that sort of thing. The Club allows most everyone to use the farm for communing with nature or the use of the gun ranges. We do hope that anyone who arrives there to use the gun ranges, and another car is there, that the gun users will locate the occupants of the other car before they start to shoot. We do have signs at the farm to try to prevent vandalism but we know Brenda Dupee skates FI' in area competition This writer is sorry for missing the column for the last couple of weeks, but will bring you up to date on the busy schedule of the Clinton Figure Skating Club. Orders have been turned in for the cheese and will be available for the skaters to pick up at skating on Satur- day, December 5 and deliver to their customers. This was a big success as approx- imately 1;500 lbs. of cheese was ordered. The last two Saturdays saw a large number of the clubs skaters tested and they have passed the following badges: beginners. David Smith, Jaqueline Wildfong, and Jennifer Pollock; elementary, Julie Rutledge; basic Susan Jewitt, Lori Powell; novice 1, Myra Post - till; dance 1, Sherry Lavis. One of our competitive skaters, Brenda Dupee, was in Windsor last week com- peting at Western Ontario Sectionals (this covers an area from Windsor to Lucknow to Niagara Falls) . She competed in the Junior Ladies event and finished 7th overall. Con- gratulations Brenda! Safety awareness St. John Ambulance urges awareness of safety pro- cedures both at home and on the job.
