Other special appreciation reminders will continue throughout the week. The P.T.A. wishes to encourage all parents to show' interest, concern and support for the entire staff at Payson High School.

Drug abuse is like a lot of lethal illnesses. Prevention is the very best kind of treatment. Not smoking cigarettes is far, far better than undergoing a successful operation for lung cancer.

Once again - thanks for the pportunity i nave in which to nerve you as Payson citizens. Grant Wilson Councilman o to cause health menaces: sub-zer- hypothermia and frostbite. If you are an outdoor enthusiast during this time of year - a skier, skater, hiker or hunter - you could be a prime candidate for falling victim to either frostbite or hypothermia. Hypothermia is the number one killer of outdoor enthusiasts says the Red Cross. Exposure causes hypothermia. The temperature doesnt have to be particularly cold most cases develop when the temperature is between 30 and 50 degrees. Hypothermia begins the moment the body begins to lose heat faster than it produces it. If the heat loss continues, the cold affects the brain, depriving the victim of judgment. These are the symptoms: uncontrolled shivering; vague, slow or slurred speech; memory lapses or incoherence; and extreme clumsiness or drowsiness. If you see someone with these symptoms, remember: that person could be dead within an hour. The first lifesaving step is to get the victim out of the wind, rain or cold as quickly as possible. Warm, dry clothing is essential, if possible, put the victim in a sleeping bag that is insulated from the ground. Keep the victim awake and send for medical assistance. You may want to give the victim fluids if he or she can swallow. As frostbite sets in, numbness occurs and the skin turns pale as it freezes. Frostbite is a condition that requires immediate action; if not treated immediately, gangrene can set in, and amputation may be necessary. The first lifesaving step for frostbite is to get the victim out of wet gloves andor socks, but do not massage the afflicted area. Fingers and feet should be heated in warm, not hot, water until normal coloring returns. Remember. ..both hypothermia and frostbite can be prevented by wearing proper clothing and by using common sense in outdoor situations. -- Dear Citizens of Payson, Free HEALTHCARE CORNER A COLD NIP CAN DO YOU IN -- - When you use a new KERO-SUspace heater during our free trial program.
