Specialist Now is the time for all good Ore gon mothers to hustle the kiddies into sun suits, and send them forth to get tanned and healthy. Oregon children, especially in the western part of the state, get far too little sunshine as It is, says Mrs. Sara Prentiss, child care specialist of Oregon State college, and now that summer is here the wise moth er will see that her child is clad to take full advantage of It "The sun must come in contact with the bare skin to be effective,'' Mrs. Prentiss points out, "because most fabrics filter out the essential rays. So the least amount of cloth ing convention will allow is all the child should wear. Window glass also bars out the health giving qual ities of sunshine, which is one of the reasons why winter sunshine is less beneficial than the most direct summer rays." The most suitable garment for lit tle son or daughter then is the sun suit, either home-made or purchas ed, says Mrs. Prentiss. There are many styles on the market, or they can be quickly and eaBily made at home, using some light, loosely wov en material that will shut out as few rays as possible. Net makes a very good material for the top. In choosing a sun suit or a pattern for one, Mrs. Prentiss urges partic ular attention to the child's com fort seeing that shoulder straps are so made that they do not drop over the shoulder, and such things. "When the child is first put out in his sun suit care must be taken that he is not exposed too long or when the sun is too hot until his skin gets accustomed to it" warns Mrs. Prentiss. "The actual length of time each day depends on am ount of previous exposure, and the child's complexion. Dark-skinned youngsters can stand more sun than fair ones. Where the temperature is extreme, as in parts of eastern Oregon, it is essential that the child's head be covered, and that he be kept in during the hottest part of the day. Is your hot water HOT?
