on subjects relating to public health.
THE SKATING CRAZE.
It seems to have struck Anchorage,
and we seem to have gotten a liberal
dose of it, too. And the best thing
that can be said of it is that it will do
you good.
Everybody knows that it is hard to
keep in good condition during the win
ter; everybody expects to take on a
little fat and get a little lazier than
usual. We love the stove too well. We
eat more and exercise less, conse
quently we perspire less and there is
less waste of body fuel. We are stor
ing up all the time. Muscles get soft
and flabby—lungs are not exercised to
full expansion and hearts are not
called upon to pump blood any faster
than is required for our daily work.
Every woman expects to reach
spring a few shades paler than she is
now.
Everly mother expects her children
to have tonsils and adenoids in the
spring.
Every doctor expects to have case
after case of severe colds and pneu
monia.
Every health officer expects an in
crease in communicable diseases with
the break of winter.
Why is this? Why do we not keep
our degree of resistance as high dur
ing the winter as during the summer.
Because we require more energy
and ambition to get out of doors in the
winter. Therefore any inducement
that can be offered that will secure
this end is a worthy one.
Skating out of doors in winter is as
beneficial as swimming out of doors in
summer. It develops the muscles, ex
ercises the lungs, speeds up the heart,
makes the head clear, the eye bright,
keeps away headaches, relieves consti
pation, removes pimples from the face
and makes good complexions and ap
petites.
There is really nothing that you
can say against it and lots for it. One
who is skating out of doors will never
catch a cold from another who has
one—that is from skating together.
But you should not patronize the
warming room, too often; that is just
what you should not do. Outside fires
are better for warming, because you
get warm while skating and should
not go into a hot room and from there
out doors into tne cold as that is when
you catch cold, by sudden chilling of
the surface of the body. The warm
room or shelter should not be kept too
I warm.
Now that we have a real skating
pond it should be made free use of and
if several hundred want to use it per
haps the management might reduce
the price so that you can skate for
less money, as they don’t want to
make too much money, as they are
public spirited men and proud of their
ice, as well they may be.
You cannot find any better winter
sport that at the same time will be of
as great benefit to you as skating.
The bill boards say that “Bowlers nev
er get appendicitis,” which may be
true, but we can truthfully say that
skaters seldom ever have bad colds or
pneumonia. And positively do have
better hearts and lungs.
