The days of the Conquistado-res with their pikes and chainmail, the lumbering galleonsunder full sail, the swift pri-vateers, have long since van-

Students, tour groups,families, and businessmen re-turn time and again, deter-mined to see as much aspossible of this magic area.

As iootpaths meandering tomarkets in village squares be-came broad highways leadingto busy seaports and air ter-minals where iet planes flytravelers about the globe, thosemean inns have been replacedwith some of the most modernhotels in the world. Every con-venience expected by the mostdemanding guest is available,\u25a1even of those hotels in theWestern Hemisphere are Inter-Continental.

Typical of the newer hotelsarout the world those of InterContinental were designedwith not only the tourist inmind but the businessman aswell. There is every facilityfor conducting a successfulbusiness meeting or conven-tion. Available are all thesophisticated tools: easels, ?

podiums. microphones, multi-lingual translation equipment,multi-lingual secretaries, andthe latest in audio visual aids.Meeting rooms range from pri-vate dining rooms to ballroomsfor larger convocations.

Before and after meetings, inthe restaurants or with roomservice, are the service, food,and beverages the successfulbusinessman demands whenhe visits a first class hotel. Andwhen there comes a break andhe has some free time alone orwith his family, chances are,minutes from his hotel will bea place to visit or a view to seehe will always remember.

BEWARE OF MEASLESWhy are parents indiffer-

ent about protecting theirchildren against measles?One answer, suggests Dr. R.Cannon Eley of Brown Uni-versity, is that they are un-aware of the serious effects ofthe disease.

When a safe and effectivepolio vaccine became avail-able. he points out, parentsdemanded it for their chil-dren because they could seethe crippling effects of polio.But children made deaf, men-tallyretarded, or emotionallydisturbed because of measlesdo not obviously incriminatethe disease.

cases of measles in this coun-try.

Today, polio is almost non-

existent in the U.S. Tomor-row, Dr. Eley stresses, thesame could be true of measles.Measles vaccine should begiven to all children betweenthe ages of 1 and 12, he says.

When tliey are immunizedthe disease will be under con-

Dr. \u25a0 Eley emphasizes thatsuch measles effects plusparalysis, blindness, recur-rent convulsions, psychologi-cal disturbances, pneumonia,and ear infections are notrare.

Encephalitis or inflamma-tion of the brain occurs in 1out of every 1,000 cases. Itkills 50% of its victims, andleaves 25 per cent of the sur-vivors mentally retarded, thedoctor points out.

And in 1966, some 250 chil-dren died from measles in theU.S..? more than twice asmany deaths from measles asreported cases of polio.

If unprotected, Dr. Eleysays, "90 per cent of childrenhave the disease before theage of 6 years; the remaining10 per cent contract it later."During the period from Jan-uary to December 30, 1967,there were 62,232 reported

trol, sincgjhese children es-peciallytnbse in kindergar-ten anf in thirst 2 grades ofelementary school are mostlikely to contract the disease.

Only one "shot" is requiredwith the Schwarz-strain vac-cine the type most common-ly used in mass immunizationcampaigns. It provides whatis believed to be lifelong pro-tection similar to that whichfollows recovery from naturalmeasles, but without the dan-ger associated with the dis-ease.

So don't jeopardize yourchild's health?or life?by ne-glecting his immunization.See your dbctor about it to-day!
