Teaching Children How TO Conduct

Self-support In the water is so easily accom-

old enough to battle alone in ponds or at the sea-
side should have the ''knack" OF 1t explained until
they thoroughly and Enthusiastically understand it
and have practiced 1t sufficiently in chargr OF their
elders to give them sense OF assurance and self
reliance when alone. 1t is not generally
known that finger laid upon any floating
ooJect, like log, an overturned boat, or
even an oar, will sustain the body In smooth
water sufficiently for The head to be kept
Tor breathing and seeing. Many persons are
drowned because they exert themselves wildly
when thrown into the water suddenly, yet boat
half-nlled with water, or with even little more
than the gunwales above the surface, will sup
port as many persons as can get their hands on It.
II they behave quietly. A person OF perfect SELF
possession, though not knowing how TO swim,

with such support. and call until lelp came, than
would an expert swimmer who should close his

occasion may come when parents will be un-

The ability TO float on the back, with no sup
