Do It Up Brown-Not Red
C
"These beautiful tans are very becoming," Ralph L. Canuteson, director of health service at Watkins hospital, said. But he added, "There is nothing attractive about a skin that looks like an old shoe."
At the first sign of warmer sunny weather, women donned scant bathing suits and scampered to roofs and lawns to get the full benefit of the spring sun. A swift glance around the campus readily suggests that their long hours of basking were successful.
Enviously, fair-skinned maidens gaze on the fortune with beautiful tans. Sympathetically, they glance at those who overbaked in their eagerness to get a tan.
Dr. Canuteson stressed that suntans should be acquired gradually as sunburns can be just as dangerous as a burn by any other agent; even more so perhaps because more
of the body is involved. Not all people react the same to sunlight. To some it is a delightful tonic; others achieve nothing from it but headaches and successive burns. Blondes are more sensitive than brunettes. Men are more sensitive than women. And in ages blow 20 and over 50 years less sunlight is tolerated.
The following advice is given by Dr. Canuteson to those endeavoring to get a suntan.
"Select a location sheltered from the wind. Lie with your feet toward the sun. Use a suntan oil if you wish. Start with an exposure of 10 or 15 minutes front and back, depending upon your skin pigmentation. Increase the dose five minutes daily. Don't go to sleep in the sun. You will be a lot healthier and handsomer, with an untanned skin than with a shell like a boiled lobster."
