With the appearance of a few t'ui'.t,hiny day-; children a. well as adults are prone to lay aside their warm winter clothes, thereby exposing ex-posing their bodies to the cool, chilling atmosphere. Chilling has a tendency to lower body resistance resist-ance and may be followed by a cold, sore throat, or even pneumonia.
