6 FRATERNITY Other modern remedies are available for sea, air or car sickness, lotions for the skin and new drugs to be taken at the first sign of a cold. The traveled person has learned through sometimes bitter experience to take advantage of these aids to good health away from home. For the inexperienced traveler, doctors advise these 10 check points: 1. Take your time; don’t rush; undue haste builds anxiety, upsets your nerves and leads to accidents, especially if you are driving. 2. Try those exotic foreign dishes if you like, but eat and drink moderately. 3. Don’t overexpose yourself to the sun and, when tanning yourself, use a good lotion. 4. When swimming, don’t stay in the water too long your first time in. 5. Don’t overdo winter sports your first day. Let those little-used muscles work themselves into shape gradually. 6. Don’t become chilled. When you begin to feel the cold, go inside. 7. Don’t eat or drink at obviously substandard establishments, regardless of how colorful or unusual they may seem. Their sanitary facilities may be primitive and probably are. 8. Take along reliable remedies in tablet form for easy carrying. 9. Pace yourself during your holiday so you won’t need a vacation when you get back home. 10. Don’t take your home and office cares with you. Forget them for a while. They’ll be there when you get back. Council Is Co=Host to Visiting Soviet Clergy Sixteen clergymen representing six denominations in the Soviet Union were in Washington, D. C., March 13-15 as part of an exchange visit which took them to several cities in the United States. Acting jointly as local hosts to the delegation were the Washington office of the National Council of Churches and the Council of Churches National Capital Area. While here, the group visited historic American shrines, looked in on the U. S. Senate and House of Representatives, participated in discussions with Washington churchmen and viewed church life in the nation’s capital. They were guests at a dinner at First Baptist Church and at a service and reception at Wesley Theological Seminary. The exchange delegation came to the United States on invitation from the National Council of Churches. A group of American churchmen toured Russia last summer. Ten of the Soviet visitors were clergymen of the Russian Orthodox Church. Heading the group was Archbishop Nikodim of Jaroslav and Rostov. Others in the delegation were from the Orthodox Church of Georgia, the Armenian Church, the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Estonia, the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Latvia, and the Union of Evangelical Christian-Baptists of the Soviet Union.
