No matter what time of year, tropical sun is more intense than ours because humid air magnifies its rays.

After a few hours, you could be severely burned even to the point of "sun poisoning."' Not only is the outer layer of skin burned, but the inner layers and even walls of blood vessels can be affected. This destruc- tion of tissue leads to swell- ing and build-up of toxic material, which may in turn lead to shock or even coma. '*Sunstroke" results from deep burning of the back of the neck. This is where the spinal cord is closest to the surface and damage to it affects the central nervous system. To avoid ruining what should be a relaxing break, vacationers should stay out of direct sun between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. at least. Especially avoid swimming during this period because water also magnifies the sun's rays. If you must lie or play in the sun, use a sun screen recommended for your skin type.

Photo driver licensing goes into effect Feb. 3 TORONTO -- Ontario Minister of Transportation and Communications Ed Fulton recently confirmed that the province's photo driver licensing system will go into operation Feb. 3, 1986 with the mailing out of renewals. "Drivers will continue to renew their licences every three years on their date of birth as before,"' said Fulton, "'now, however, they will have to come into a ministry 'photo site' to have their picture taken." These sites ... almost 400 of them ... include all Driver and Vehicle licence _ offices, MTC Driver Ex- amination Centres and selected. travel points and OPP offices in the more remote areas of northern Ontario. The new two-part photo licence will consist of a laminated photo card and licence card. 'Photo licensing pro- vides a more positive iden- tification method," ex- plained Fulton. "It prevents the misuse of driver licences, and offers a virtually tamper-proof licence."" In addition, all new drivers will automatically enter the photo licensing program. Those requiring a replacement licence fit in the same category. Reinstated drivers (other than those suspended for medical-related reasons) will be advised they must get a photo' upon reinstatement. Photo licensing pro- grams are in existence in Alberta, British Columbia and Prince Edward Island as well as all 50 American states and the District of Columbia. '*To offset the cost of the new program, renewal licence fees have been set at $21 every three years," said the Minister. sport.
