Give Kiddies Sun Baths
Says O. S. C. 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.
