PODPORA LIDSHOST BRATRSTVI 18. cERVENCE (JULY) 1962

DEBATA 0 LEKAitSlq PRO V debate o tom, jak riejlepe pomoci stareim lidem ye zdravotnich proble-. mech, se pokraeuje. Podstatnou otazkou je, rnáli federalni vlada vilbec zasahovati do tohoto pole piisobnosti, a kdy2 ano, v jakem rozsahu. Lekakska peee byla pova2ovana y e SpojenYch statech a2 dosud za problem osobni, a kahlY jedno7 tlivec si ji opatfoval podle sveho.

Proti tomuto tradienindu postoji r3•Tsu je se veak posledni dobou fakt, 2e stareich lidi, t. , j. lidi ye veku nad 65 let, neustale pfibYva, a 2e tito lids potfebuji lekafske oeetteni easte j i ne21i lids ,pri eeme jejich nemoe bY ya, deleiho tryani. Tato skupina lidi ma tO obyeejne menei prijmy, take ochuraveni je pro ne veteim finanenim bfemenem, zylaete uva2ime-li yysoke, a stale jests stoupajicl naklady nemocnieni.

President Kennedy a jeho administratiya mail praxe toto na zfeteli, kdy2 podporuji King-Andersonovu pfedlohu (H. R. 4222), o ni je kongresu jednati.

Tato pfedloha zavedla by povinnou malou dan na veechny mzdy a platy. ZvYeila by toti2 dal"), socialniho zabezpeeeni o etyrt' procenta pro zamestnance j zarnestnayatele, a byla by placena z pr y -nich5.20dolarienhpfjmu,ist() z prvnich 4.899 dolart, z nich2 se plat! daft socialniho zabezpeeeni v pritomnosti. Dneeni sazba je tfi a jedna osmina procenta.

Toto zYSTeeni dame socialniho zabezpeeeni znamenalo by toliko male zvYeeni

ye veech danich, ktere jsou Idnes vYcleleene zamestnanYm strhavany z pravidelneho prijmu. V pripade svobodneho eloveka bylo by to zvYeeni o jedno a pill procenta.

Z penez, ziskanYch timto zptsobem, hradily by se lekafske vYlohy lidi pies 65 let, najnie pobyt v nemocnici a oeetfeni. Lekarske fiety by pod ochranu zdkona nespadaly, a namitky odpfircu King - Andresonovy pfedlohy, kteri v ni spatfuji prvni krok ke "sesocialisovani mediciny", jsou proto neopravnene.

Co je sra2kova dan, vi skoro ka2dy.

Kdy2 se a ni j ednalo pied tficiti lety ve spojitosti se zakonem a socialnim zabezpeeeni, vyskytly se podobne namitky A piece dnes je zahrnuta do programu socialniho bazecpeeeni veteina Amerieanti, a tent() program je financovan prave dani sra2kovou. Co president Kennedy chce udelati, je toliko rozeiriti program na pole zdravotnictvi.

Oposici vede Americka lekafska komora, soukroma organisace lekafti, ktera podle vlastniho tvrzeni zastupuje yetiflu americkYch lekaftl, i kdy2 ne yeechny. Vedouci komory yefi, 2e lekafska PCee je osobni zale2itosti kaaleho jednotlivce, pripadne jeho rodiny, pfatel, obce nebo statu, a teprve v krajnim pfipade federalni vlady. VefejnYch fond y pro lekarske oeetfeni ma bYti podle jejich mineni u2lto jen v pripade lidi, kteri opravdu nemaji 2adnYch prostfedica.

Za stavajicich pomerti zUstava, otazka

lekatskeho ogeti'eni nerozfe'Send. Maji bYti fondy pro takovato oS'etfeni nashromakieny po yinnYm eetrenim a pak rozdelovany vladou podle potreby, nebo ma v31ohy s nim spojene platiti podle moZnosti jednotlivce, kteremu se mute dostati pomoci z vetejmich fondü jenom v pripade skuteene nernajetnosti?

President veki, e narod ma rnoralni zivazek pomoci star'Sirn lidem hraditi vydani s nakladnkm leeenim; Americka lekarska komora (AMA) tvrdi, e vlada ma zasahnouti jenom v pripade skutedne finaneni tisne nemocneho.

Odmyslime-li si rrizne detaily a komplexni politicks rozpory, pak je toto jadro pritomneho jednani. President sna'Zi se vyuZiti veech prostredkil, ktere ma k disposici, aby zlskal podporu narada ye prospech veci, ktera je podie jeho svedomi v nejlepgim verejnem zajmu.

Americka lekaika komora naopak usiluje a zmareni jeho snahy a o to, aby se vefejnost postavila proti King-Andersonove pfedloze. Rude na elenech kongresu, aby nakonec rozhodli, ktera strana j e pfesvedeivejei, eili jinymi slovy bude to narod, kterY- bade miti posledni slovo. )O( RozumnY. elovek je jiste povdeenY, kdy2 jej soukromne a pkatelsky upozornite na j eho pochybeni. PM torn ale uiyeleme te2 na naee vlastni nedostatky, co2 nas jiste udini shovivaveiSi.

Ve stPedu, dne 38. cervence I 62

Illidka Zen Koval:, Texas Ctend redakce, mile sestry a bratri: Napadlo nine, Se bych y am moll vypsati nektere zku g enosti z prvni svetove valky.

Jak je vain mnohYm znamo, prodelal jsem ji od zaeatku aS do konce. Na jaie roku 1917 jsem vstoupil jako dobro• volnik do Americke armady, na dobu trvani valky (duration of war). Chtel jsem se dat ku kavalerii, ale do to ji g MPHjimali, ponevadS v zakopech kavalerii nepotkebovali. — Tak jsem se dostal do pechoty "Infanteri", ae jsem, nerad moc paky chodil. Asi za tYden jsem byl poslan se skupinou jinYch dobrovolnikil (novaeku) do Fort Oglethorpe, ye state Georgia. Za nekolik tydnu potom jsem byl poslan noveho "Camp Forrest", jen nekolik mil vzdaleneho. Tarn se Prae ye organisovala sedma, divise praviclelneho vojska, skladajici se ze zakladu z 17 — 55 a 56 regimentu pechoty. Byl jsem, pkidelen do Company H 56 Infantry, a tam jsem zustal ad do propuSteni z vojny.

My dobrovolnici (enlisted men) jsme byli jakousi zakladnou, a na.k '7 divise byla nekolikrat dopinena novYmi, odvedenYmi (drafted men) jako ndhradniky za ty, kteki byli posilani dopinovati pluky ktere odjadely do Francie. Na za• eatku roka 1918 jsme byli poslani do Camp McArthur ye Waco, Texas, a za nedlouho do Francie.

Dnes vam nebuda vypisovat vdleene hrUzy, do kterYch jsme byli poslani hned po pkijeti do Francie, radeji napi'Si nee° o tom vojenskem Sivote zde ye SpojenYch statech. fiikava se, de "divot vojenskY jedivot veselY". To vS'ak neplati za east( valky, kdy vojenske tabory byly preplneny, a styk s civilisty byl skoro nemo2ny.

Nedelejte to! Obratte se na teditele okresni iitadovny v nejblilSim meste kde vas Upozorni, 2e nemusite ptestat pracovat ftpine, abyste mohi dostavati jiste pnlitky.

V Spoj enYch statech lije vice nelli sedm milionu pracujicich lidi ye veku pees 65 let, kteti maji narok na mesieni po2itky socialniho zabezpeoeni. pled rokem 1961 platil zakon, podle ktereho elovek, ktery vydelal vice ne21i 2080 dolaru }Ahem roku a pracoval p41 tom vSech clvanact mesicu, nemohl dostati Ida socialniho zabezpedeni za 2adnY mesic, i kdy2 jinak mel na po2itky pravo.

V dtisledku poslednich zmen zakona mohou vAak pracujici lids .pensijniho veku dostavati politky socialniho zabezpeeeni, i kdyl jejich rani yYdelek zndene ptesahuje 2.080 dolarti.

Ve shode s dodatkem z roku 1961 strhne fitad s Aeku jeden dolar paitku za kahle dva dolary, ktere pojikenec vydela behem roku mezi $1.200 a $1.700.

Ptesahuje-di j eho ArYdelek $1.700 dolarn, ztraci dolar po2itku za ka'ZdY dolar vyMany. ModifikovanY zakon umo2riuje tak pojiStenci s rodinou, ktera, ma te2 narok! na po2itky, aby vydelal 0 $4.400 dolaril behem jedineho roku a stale jeSte dostaval nejake pcditky socialniho zaJiezpeeeni. Zde uvadime ptiklad, kterY toto tvrzeni nejlepe objasni.

Ptedpokladejme, 2e petaSedesatiletY pojiSlenec vyclela ya ji2 tadu let 3.600 dolark roene, a jelikol se prace nevzdava, bude je vyclelavati i nadale. Na podklade tohoto roCniho vYclelku je jeho mesieni politek socialniho zabezpeCeni vypoeitan na 105 dolaru. Jeho Lena a nezletile dite maji narok na 52.50 dolaru CHI rodina, mesione pro ka2cleho narok na 210 dolarfi. Kdyby se tento pojiAtenec easteene prate vzdal, aby tak jeho roeni yYdelek neptesahoval 1,200 dolaru, dostaval by s rodinou pinY mesieni politek, takle by behem roku dostal 2.520 dolarft. U yadenY pojiStenec nechce VSak jests jiti do penSe, tak2e jeho vydelanY ptijem zfistane 3.600 dolarfi roene. Ma pra y° nejake pnlitky?

Vrat'me se k dtivejSimu vysvetleni, a z neh ouvidime nasledujici: 1. Jelikol pojigtenec vydelava vice nezli 1.200 dolard roene, nemii2e dostavati s rodinou pinY politek 2.520 dolarfi roene.

2. Z prvnich 500 dolaru, ktere vydela pies 1.200 dolarft, strhne mu fitad 250

Strana 7 dolart (1 dolar za ka2cle 2 dolary virdelku). Po odeeteni 250 dolarti od pineho politku 2.520 dolaru zbYva, 2.270 dolaru.

3. Jelikok jeho ptijem ptesahuje uvedenYch 1.700 dolarti o 1.900 dolaru, odeetern Mad techto 1.900 ciolarit od $2.270 z ptedchoziho paragrafu. ZbYvajicich 370 dolart representuje rooni po2itek, na ktery ma pojiStenec s rodinou narok i pies to, 2e behem roku vydela 3.600 dolark.

Z tohoto je video, 2e zamestnanec nepottebuje se valati cele vYcieleCrie prate, aby mel narok na po2itky socialniho zabezpedeni. Nabadame proto vSechny zamestnance pensi j niho veku, aby neprodlene zaSli do fitadovny socialoiho zabezpeeeni a ptesvedeili se, nespadajili do teto skupiny.

Criticism Dale Carnegie once said, , "any fool can criticise, condemn and complain — and most fools do!" Criticism seems to be a popular sport to achieve superiority by trying to lower the prestige of others. It is an indirect form of selfboosting. Many have the mistaken idea that they can overcome their feeling of inferiority by pulling others down.

Some never seem to learn to do anything else but to criticize and complain.

Selfesteem is easily injured and most

PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE "I pledge Allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands. One Nation under God, indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for all." of us resent or become annoyed at criticism. Criticism ranges all the way from grumbling, nagging, belittling, knocking and fault-finding to positive and constructive suggestions. Unfair criticism is of ten prompted by jealousy, ignorance or suspicion, injustice or intolerance, and it becomes habitual with the worst offenders.

The more a man does, the more he breaks away from the beaten path, the more he will be a target for criticism.

The higher he climbs the more numerous are his detractors. To escape crititism we would have to say nothing, do. nothing and be nothing. The moment we attempt to step out from the crowd, or take on added responsibilities, there will be many self-appointed critics ready to tell us what we should, or should not do. )O(

Women's Nook SEATON LODGE NO. 47 Dear Friends: Thursday, July 5, the chairmen of the committees for our picnic met and made further plans. We decided to have beef barbecue and all the trimmings. Sisters are asked to bring cakes, pies, kolaches, or potato salad. Whatever you like to make, bring one of the above mentioned.

We have also decided to start serving at about 5:30 p.m. and serve until 8 p.m.

Then the floor manager will have to clear the floor for the dance.

We will have different kinds of entertainments on the outside. Sister Theresa Chlapek was appointed to be the chairman of the Bazaar. You sisters may bring her some things that you wish to donate, such as: crochet work, handwork, aprons, canned goods, etc.

The program will start at 2 p.m. and we hope to be through by 3 p.m. Brother Edward Marek, president of the Supreme Lodge, will be the guest speaker. We have invited the 'choir from Dallas but so far have had no reply whether they will come. We hope that at least some of them can come.

Brother Otto Juren has volunteered to teach us to sing a few songs also. So any of you who are interested in being on our program come to the rehearsal on Friday, July 20, at 8:30 p.m. You are all invited to come. Brother Juren wants this to be for SPJST Lodge No. 47 members only. So let us all come and sing along with Juren.

Now let me go back to our Queen's Ball. I am hoping that our district reporter will send in her report but I have a few things to say. First, the Queens and Duchesses and escorts were simply beautiful. Oh, if I were young again In our time, we did not have any

Wednesday, July 18, 1982 opportunities to show off as we have today. If we would have to judge you as the most beautiful, I know I would hate to be the judge. Sister Nancy Malish was the lucky one. She was very beautiful in her white dress.

I hope you • have a picture to send to the Vestnik.

We had some taken but they are not ready. Let me congratulate you Sister Malish, and wish you all the success you deserve. You were beautiful.

We wish to thank the following people for making our Queen's Ball a success.

Sisters Vlasta Hruska, Nancy Sefcik, Ma-. tilda Sefcik, Brothers Jim Richardson, Walter Haisler, Frank Hejl Jr., for helping with the decorations. I wish to thank Brother Hejny for MC'ing the program.. Most of all let me thank all of you who came and supported this event. Oh, I must not forget the brothers who volunteered to sell tickets. Brothers Dennis Bartek, Edwin Chlapek, Frank Klinkovsky, Walter Haisler and Anton lVfotl took turns. Thank you very much.

This will be all for today for I have to go mail this before it is too late.

Don't forget to come to the practice on Friday, July 20, at 8 p.m.

And attend the picnic on July 29.

Strana 18 NOVE KVE11/ LODGE NO, 35, ELK Dear Members and Friends, The regular lodge meeting of Lodge No. 35, Elk was called to order Sunday, July 8, by President Rudolph Zalman.

The meeting was started off with the Pledge of Allegiance.

The visitors recognized were, Mr. and Mrs. Chris Spence and family, Daniel Marek, Marvin Marek, all of Lodge No. 66, Mr. and Mrs. John Marley and daughter, Mrs. Don Mladenka, Mrs. Bill Hands, Mrs. Bob Ehlers. We enjoyed having all of you present and would like to see all of you back soon.

Congratulations goes to the proud parents of the Elk community. They are: Mr. and Mrs. Billy Bordovsky parents of a son, Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Than parents of a daughter, and Mr. and Mrs. Webb of Dallas parents of a son.

The new business taken up was about the work day to do the necessary odd jobs around the hall. It was decided to have it next Sunday afternoon.

Sister Norma Pavelka congratulated our youth on their accomplishments at the Youth Activity Day. Congratulations girls we all are proud of you.

A very interesting discussion was brought up about delinquent members.

The meeting was adjourned.

Your Reporter, Bernice Mach )0( LO GE NO. 15 BUCKHOLTS Dear Brothers and Sisters, Lodge No. 15 celebrated the 65th Anniversary of our SPJST, July ls, exactly 65 years ago on this date.

It gives me great pleasure to know that the people around Buckholts were able to start a lodge of their own, which I know it wasn't easy for them in those days, but survived and now it is up to the younger generations to carry on.

They really are doing a good job. I never really realized that the .SPJST could mean so much to me 'til the day of our celebration. But I guess it takes something like this to wake us all up.

IL really was a wonderful feeling to see our only dear Charter Member, Sister Marie Svetlik, who we always have called Grandma. Svetlik, sitting by the large decorated table between her two sons who both are 50 year members. We also honored all our 50 year and over members. The members who attended were Sister FranceS Stobner, Sister Frances Rubac, Brother Will Kuzel, Brother Henry Haviek, Brother and Sis-

VESTNtK— WEST, TEXAS ter Ed Posival, Brother John Svetlik, Brother Frank Svetlik, Brother arid Sister John Zajicek and my parents, Brother and Sister Frank Zajicek. We have several members who weren't able to attend on account of not being in ,good health. I will say they were deeply missed by all our member present: Our Master of Ceremonies was Brother Ladis Stalmach who spoke both Czech and English. Brother Stalmach gave his official welcoming address stating "That it is a great pleasure to welcome everyOne to our 65th anniversary celebration." He then introduced our charter member and presented her with a corsage. Next came the names of our 50 year and over members. Last was the introduction of our Supreme Lodge President, Brother ,Edward L. Marek, and the officers of our local lodge, who were seated next to the large table reserved for our honored members. Brother Stalmach then turned the microphone over to our guest speaker, Brother Edward L. Marek, our hall was filled to capacity to hear him deliver his words of inspiration. Brother Marek stated the old members are the ones to be thanked for working so hard in those days to get started. I know this to be true. If we want our lodge to go forward, we have to keep on working, and we have to work together. I only wish that all our members could have heard Brother Marek's speech; he spoke both Czech and English, where everyone was able to understand. Brother Marek presented our only charter member with a plaque , he then turned the microphone over to Brother Stalmach who thanked all the people who tame out for this occasion. He also thanked all the members who have helped in any way to make this celebration a big success.

In behalf of our Lodge I want to thank Brother Edward L. Marek, President from our Supreme Lodge and to all our members who have helped in anyway. Thanks again, it was greatly appreciated.

Our regular meeting was held Sunday, July 8th. The meeting was called to order in the usual way at 2:00 p.m. with all the officers present. Sister Svetlik read the minutes of our previous meeting, they were signed as read. Brother Jurica gave us the report on all bills, and income, that was made at our 65th, annicersary celebration, July lst. We worked hard but is sure was worth it.

While the benefits are intended primarily for the beneficiaries' economic security, they help business in the community generally. Most of the money is spent immediately for food, clothing, and other necessities.

At the present time, social security benefits are being paid at a rate of over one billion dollars a month. "There are several reasons for the increase.

There are more aged people; benefits are now payable at age 62; and less social security credit is needed to meet the eligibility requirements for benefits.

The average old-age benefit nationally for December 1961 was $75.65 for a retired worker. In the State of Texas, the average benefit was $57.27. )0( Poet: "Burglars broke into my room last night."

Fraternally, F. A. Kadlecek, Secty' District Five ) 0( SPJST LODGE NO. 84 DALLAS

Dear Members and Friends, It's been quite some time since my last letter to the Vestnik so I decided to take a break from my round of activities and write an informal note to all of you.

Let me begin by extending my warm congratulations to the new Queen and other Royalty of District Three. Altheugh, I was late for the actual coronation at the recent Youth Activity Day, I am sure it was very impressive and, as usual, very beautiful. To Carol Nemec, Lodge 84's contestant, is extended much gratitude for representing our Lodge so well.

My congratulations also to Mrs. Baldwin, the former Lorenda Lostak, upon the birth of her "Little Prince" as Sister Sefcik of Houston refers to him. Also on the receving line of best ,wislies is

It is so very har-1 to believe that time moves so rapidly and that we who once yearned for the happy activities of our Youth Clubs are now either beginning or already well-established in our future roles as mothers, fathers, and adult leaders.

I can well remember the early days of our own Lodge Youth Club and those, of us who first started it. Many of those "zany" teen-agers are now happily married couples, ardent college students, or successful career people. Many are taking advantage of the opportunities to travel and become acquainted with the wonders of cur own United States and also of Europe. It is truly amazing how far apart those of us who are "Charter Members" of the Teen-Age Club may be and yet how close we seem because of the warm bond of friendship cultivated in those early and extremely happy teen years.

Reading through this last issue of the Vestnik, I was very impressed with the pages devoted to the activities of our Youth in very Lodge and District.

What a wonderful feeling of confidence it is to see the tremendous progress being made continually in our SPJST Youth Movement.

I was impressed also with the lovely picture of the first . Miss SPJST of Texas. It seems like only yesterday that she and so many others of us first met at our 1960 Convention in San Antonio, Texas. Soon we will be meeting again and crowning a new Miss SPJST thus adding another ear to the annals of our Order.

Well, I ;have spent all my spare time in. writing this letter but I feel as if it were very well worth the while. Now I must get busy preparing tomorrow's assignment. I am now busily working with our tiny newborn infants and their proud and happy "Mummies" at the hospital. Perhaps one day very soon I will find some more time to write you and perhaps I will have a more definite subject to write about. And perhaps, too I will soon be sharing with you a very wonderful and personal bit of news.

Until later I remain, your friend in fraternity Jerry Ann Urban Editor's note: A very fine letter indeed, Jerry Ann. Thanks.

Strang 21 YOUTH OF HOUSTON LODGE NO. 142

Dear Readers: We did not play a game on Wednesday night, July 4, due to a holiday and this game will be played at a later date. probably next Wednesday night, July 18.

We did play our Exhibition Game on Thursday night, July 5, against a very good Holy Cross Catholic Church team.

Fortunately we came out on top by a score of 4-2. This team was determined to beat us if they could and really played a fine game. Wes Jaska was on the mound for us and allowed one hit, walked four and struck out seven batters.

Albin (Wino) Vrana, was his batterymate behind the plate.

Leading hitters were Leonard Drozd, with a double and a single; Albin Vrana, with a single and a walk; Ted Dusek, with a single; Alex Parma, with a single; Wesley Jaska, with two walks and Paul Valenta with a walk. This game Was well attended and we enjoyed playing this team. We hope that we can play them again this season if at all possible.

Monday night , July 9, we played Kinchloe Oil and after eight innings of play we lost by a score of 2-1. By dropping this game, we are now tied with Kinchloe Oil for first place in our Monday Night League. We were ahead by a 1-0, score until the bottom of the seventh inning when they scored the runwhich tied and in the eighth inning they scored the winning run with two away. Both teams played a good game, naturally we are disappointed that we lost.

Wesley Jaska hurled a very good game allowing eight hits, walked one batter, and struck out five batters.

Lawrence Honza caught a very fine game behind the plate.

Leading hitters were: Frank Mach III, with a Home Run and a single; Albin Vrana, with a double and a walk; Alex Parma with a double; Ted Dusek, with a single and Raymond Smith, had a sacrifice hit. This was a very good game

Strana 24 and was enjoyed by all, We had a real nice turnout of rooters; our thanks for their cheering.

Wednesday night, July 11, we played Falcon Mfg. and we won by a score of 10-0.

Frank Mach III, hurled a No Hitter, struck out seven batters and walked three batters. He pitched a very good game and his battery mate, Lawrence Honza, again turned in his usual outstanding game behind the plate.

Leading, hitters were: Lawrence Hon-; za with two singles and a walk; Frank Mach III, with two singles; Alex Parma with a single and a. sacrifice hit; Leonard Drozd, with a double; Melton Spaniel with a double; Albin Vrana with a sacrifice hit and Paul Valenta, with a walk.

One more game remains to be played in our Wednesday Night League and that will be played Wednesday night July 18; gametime 7:30 at Samuel's No. 2 Diamond and our opponents will be Central Freight. This game could determine whether or not we win the ,Secend half Champinship and also the League Championship in the Wednesday Night League.

Monday night, July 16, we played the Nine Cousins at Samuel's Diamond No. 2. We will be looking for all of you at the games.

Beware of Poison kir From. the American Medical Assn.

Once again comes the season of the Big Itch. — Poison ivy, that is Sooner or later almost everyone gets a touch of poison ivy. Even the apartment dweller whose nearest contact with nature is an occasional stroll in the park can become a victim. There usually is poison ivy in the park.

Even if you stay on the sidewalks exclusively, your dog may run through the poison ivy vines and bring it back to you.

Or your neighbor may burn some leaves and thereby send tiny droplets of the oil in poison ivy into the air to settle on your skin.

Poison ivy and its close kin, poison oak, are three-leafed climbing plants.

On the ground they are about a foot high, but more often they climb up walls, fences and trees. Sometimes they are mixed with honey suckle, morning glories and other climbing plants. Poison sumac is a small shrub with small white berries. The effect of all three is the same — a stinging, itching patch of blisters. Discomfort. is acute. If the rash is spread over a considerable portion of the body, it can become a serious affair.

There is no cure for poison ivy. There are lotions and ointments that will ease the pain and itching while it runs its course. Because there is no cure, the quacks offer a wide variety of claimed cures. Save your money.

Strana 25 Poison ivy puts hundreds in hospitals every year and thousands, more go at least once to a physician to get relief.

If the face or eyes are involved, by all means see adoctor quickly.

The best precaution against poison ivy is to know how to recognize the plants and avoid them. Any natural history book and many encyplopedias have photos of the plants. The main identifying factor is the three-leafed twig.

If you have been exposed, wash thoroughly, several times, using plenty of soap and hot water. You may be able to get at least some of the oil off before it irritates the skin. If you get a. light case, use calomine or some other soothing lotion.

Some people, who never have had a poison ivy rash, think they are immune.

The odds are that they've just been lucky. Very few are immune. Some are more susceptible than otters and these unlucky individuals develop the rash summer after summer.

Next time you go outside for gardening, make a careful search for poison ivy. If you find any, spray it with a strong weed killer or dig it out roots and all and dispose of it carefully. Clean the hoe and rake thoroughly, ragging them in dry sand or dirt. The oil droplets can cling to tools and clothing for long periods.
