PENTICTON into camp so that you won't have to depend on an unpasteurized supply. Take a small bottle of laundry bleach so that you can purify any doubtful drinking water; three drops to the gallon will suffice, and let this stand for half an hour. You will be better off to be mighty thirsty than to drink from a creek or some old well which might be contaminated. Choose your clothing to suit the climate and the type of hunting you intend to do. Take comfortable hunt- ing boots and plenty of socks. Wear red but not white. Be sure to take adequate bedding; the nights are pretty cold at this time of year- You might take along a first-aid kit so that you can treat small blisters, burns and scratches which could spoil your fun or cause difficulty later. Keep yourself dry, even to the point of drying your clothes by an open fire if you get soaked far from the camp. If you get lost at night, build an open fire and rest until dawn. Do not ex- haust and chill yourself by aimless wandering. Climb trees only in an emergency, you never know when somebody might mistake you for a bear.

Such inescapable facts as those were discussed by 12,000 safety experts and others concerned with accident prevention at the world’s biggest safety convention in Chicago. The huge drain of accidents on the nation’s mobilization of manpower and material was in the minds of the delegates as they discussed prevention methods in 200 sessions during the five-day convention. Eighty pages of closely printed pro- gram were required to list convention subjects ranging from rocket engines to throw rugs, and wonder drugs to drunk driving. All regions of the United States, Canada and some foreign countries were represented in the throng which crowded four of Chicago’s largest hotels to learn the latest techniques and methods in traffic, industrial, school, home and farm safety. “The National Safety Congress is not a glamor convention,” said Ned H. Dearborn, president of the Coun- cil. “No uniformed parades, no bands or trick cars or beauty queens.
