OBEY ORDERS AND LEARN HOW
TO SWIM.

How The Art is Taught In the Swim-
ming School—airs Very Easy.
The bathing season is here and it
has no doubt caused many huudrede
of persons to ask ‘uow can I learn to
swim?" or "How can the youngster
learn to do so?" This popular accom-
plishment, which is frequently a vital
necessity in the lives of many persons.
as shown in the General Slocum ca-
iaetrophe, must be attained without
the first ducking which causes a fright
that takes years to overcome.
best place to icum to swim is the

place where the water is waist-deep

There are certain general instruc-
tions. which. if carried out. should en-
:xblo a person to swim after a. few los-
eons. The first thing taught is the gen-

der the body. ready to. shoot arms
ahead and give another kick.

For the back stroke the motions are
the same, except that the body is in-
verted. The side stroke and. other
methods of swimming are easily learn-
od when one has mastered the simplest
~the breast stroke. The only differ-

is sidewise in the water, The right
