The couples wedding is set for Aug. 30. The Doctor Says Here's Safety-Firsts For Summer Swimming By WILLIAM A. OBRIEN, M.D. (KEA Staff Writer! Bathing beaches tend to be self purifying unless the water is polluted by sewage.

But during, certain epidemics children are warned to stay away to avoid contact with the sick or carriers of the infection. Swimming pools present a different problem, as it is possible for disease to be spread through them. Swimming pools are either the continuous flow or All and draw type, purified by chlorination or chlorination and dilution. The former is preferred, with clean water drawn in constantly as dirty water is removed. Fill and draw swimming pools are cheaper to construct, but less efficient to operate, as the pool is filled with water which is not changed except for the addition of small quantities to replace loss.

At definite intervals the water is removed and the pool cleaned. If the water in a fill and draw pool is kept purified by continuous chlorination, health authorities consider it satisfactory. When bathers enter a pool they bring in a certain amount of body waste as well as disease germs. Chlorine in the water unites with the organic matter and disease germs and destroys them. Recent experience in using a combination of ammonia and chlorine shows it to be mast efficient in water purification, and it does not cause excessive eye and throat irritations.

Bar Infection Cases Patients with infections or infectious diseases should not use a common pool (nose and throat, ear, eye. bowel, skin or contagious disease). Attendants should be told to exclude from pools all persons with such diseases until they bring a certificate from a physician stating that they are free of danger to others. Swimming pool bathers should take a shower bath with warm water and soap, following which the suit should be put on without drying the body. Many pools still require bathers to dip their feet in basins containing chemicals to destroy fungi.

Authorities disagree as to the value of this. QUESTION: Our daughter, 9 years old. had a large birth mark on her shoulder which was raised above the surface. Following treatment it flattened out but it is still purple. Would it be possible to have it removed by surgery? ANSWER: It is possible to re move these marks providing they are not too deep.

Would it not be better for you to help your daughter to adjust to its presence, as later on she can use a cosmetic or a dress to cover it?
