Section 83, Each elector upon Addison Burbank’s mural for the Florida building at the Chicago Century of Progress expositions The painting, which is 10. feet 3 inches by 10 feet 9 inches, represents Juan Ponce de Leon at the momént of first setting foot on Florida soil and naming the new land for its flowering beauty. This first important event in United States history took place on Easter morning 1513. Ponce de Leon, who came to the new world with Columbus on his second voyage in 1493 and remained as governor of Porto Rico for 20 years, was searching for the fabled “Fountain of Youth” said to be on the island of Bimini, when his’ ‘ships touched the mainland of America somewhere near St. Augustine. Mr. Burbank represents the aged adl- venturer as a visionary tinged with fanaticism. He, catches the spirit of Florida in its translucent’ light and by the inclusion of such typical vegetation as the cocolobo, opuntia and papaya. The Indians’in the picture are of the Caloosa tribe, the aboriginies of Florida. The painting will be hung permanently in the Florida state capitol after the world’: 's fair.

Clocks now used for sending the] time signal cannot be set with an! average error of less than three| one-thousandths of a second. This highly accurate time not} only would help to. make Amer-| ica’s watches and alarm clocks! the most punctual on earth, but} it would add greatly to precision} of delicate scientific work that} depends on accurate timing. ! Electric Impulses ! The clock is to be held to its) jhigh accuracy by the constant,! unvarying vibrations of a large quartz crystal. The crystal vibrations control electric im-} pulses, which rush 1,000 times a second into an electric motor that} runs the clock proper, keeping it moving at a constant rate. The erystal’s vibrations are con- trolled in much the same way aj slide trombone player makes} music—by changing the length of a brass tube through which sound waves are passing.

Too often people work so hard having a good provided for| Val Observatory’s wireless station. | time that they come home all played out, needing the rest they should have had on their vacation: Even worse is the idea that we must forget everything but fun and pleasure. Of course banishing busi- ness worries and spending your vacation in the proper mental atti- tude are among the first essentials to getting the most out of your holidays. But it is also wise to use a little forethought to prevent the accidents and illnesses that can so easily spoil a vacation and turn a good time into & tragedy. Change and Moderation In planning your vacation, remem- ber that in many respects “a change is as good as a rest.” Don’t spend | your holidays like the sailor who went boating, or the mail-carrier who took a long walk. If possible, do just the opposite from your usual round of activities. For example, if your occupation is a sedentary one demanding great expenditure of mental energy, plan @ vacation of mild physical activity free from all strain. Golf, tennis, swimming, baseball, hiking, and similar physical pursuitsin moderation are suggested. Don’t begin too vigorously. Exercise should leave a feeling of pleasant fatigue, rather than exhaustion, which is dangerous | to health, Or, if you do physical work the year round, then seek a holiday of spending their vacations at loafing than those who tire t! out going away: Whatever your vacation program” may be, don’t make it too fatiguing or strenuous. You should build up a reserve of men’ physical energy that may be upon during the ensuing year. in mind that change and moderat are the two essentials of vacation: This is the first of a seried of 12 articles on Vacations and Health. The second, on Children in Summer Months, will answer the questions: 1. How should the child’s vaca- tion be planned? 2. What precautions should be taken by children in cities? 3. What should be done before children go to summer camps? (Copyright, 1988, N. ¥.L. 1.
