some Scientific Instructions In the Art ~
Natation.
For the person who wishes to become
graceful swimmer according To the
latest approved methods there arc
four arm and four leg motions, which
are entirely distinct and are first tried
separately and then practiced in combi-
nation during each lesson.
Divide your time as follows: Ten
minutes for practicing the arm motions,
ten for the legs and ten in combination
Do not remain III the water after the
half hour is exhausted until able to
swim briskly.
To the first arm position the body lies
in the water perfectly straight, the legs
and feet together, on parallel line
with the arms, which are extended out
directly from the shoulders, palms of
hands together and head slightly ele
waited.
Between the first and second motions,
or arm strokes the arms describe q cir
Gle until extended straight from the
sides; the hands rest flat on the water ;
legs in the original position through
out the series of arm movements
For the second arm stroke the arms
are thrust down into the water until
the hands meet under the body, palms
together.
In the third motion the arms are
brought to the surface, elbows close to
the sides and hands together, pointing
straight ahead from under the chin.
The fourth motion is the thrusting of
the hands, still together, forward i'll
the water, which straightens the elbows
and brings the swimmer back to posi-
ton No. /.
? Arm position No. l is held through
out the first practicing of the leg strokes,
and the starting position of the leg move
ments is the one given in the first rule
namely, legs extended in Il straight line
with the body, feet close together,
The second leg motion consists in
pulling the knees up close to the abdo-
men, still keeping the knees and feet
close together.
In tho third stroke the legs describe
q half circle out sideways, thrusting
bac. The water and throwing the body
forward.
The fourth stroke finishes the circle
by bringing the legs together i'll a line
with the spine and then back to the
original position.
In the fourth and final action the
arms remain motionless, still cutting
the water, and the legs are brought to-
gether, which renders the entire body in
perfect readiness to repeat the motions
