The Swimming Walk.

The Swimming Walk.
The Parisienne has become an ex-
pert swimmer Such a statement
doubtless comes as a surprise to most
readers, for one knows that the aver
age French girl goes out of her way
to avoid anything athletic. I insist,
though. that the sentence shall stand
with an amendment, which reads as
follows: The Parisienne has become
an accomplished landlubber swimmer
that is, she has adopted a gait called
the swimming walk" which is in evil
dence indoors when my lady is swathed
in trailing skirts. The swimming walk
can't be done in a tailored suit nor on
the street where skirts must be lifted.
This walk is a series of undulations,
not, however, of the sinuous type sug-
gested by the squirming of a Salome
approaching the head of John the
Baptist. No; the twentieth century
woman's indoor walk is hesitant lin
gering, as If the weight of a heavy skirt
was impeding her progress In the old
Grecian bend, which form of locomo-
ton bears a slight resemblance to the
present gyrations. the bend came from
the spine. In the present instance the
motion is from the knee. Look at the
statues of Greek women and you rarely
see the feet set squarely on the
there are relaxed lines all over the
body given by this pose.
The following instructions offered by
fashion chronicler who is we'll up in
the cult may be of service to those
with a bent for acquiring the swim
ming walk. The back must be kept
straight and one knee closely hugging
the other The head is thrown forward.
the skirts gathered up and a move
ment made as if to strike out and swim.
Then we are told that the right knee
must be bent while the left foot is
dragged forward on its toe, and the
left knee bent while the right foot is
dragged forward on it's toe. The point
seems to be not to allow either foot
to leave the ground. These instruc-
tfons. trust may be of use. If taken
seriously the above hints may help any
woman not too heavily handicapped
with adipose to get right ''fn the
SWIM" but naturally the willowy
creature who skins the ground like
bird will come out winner with no
unkind remarks being made about her
undulations suggesting a 'Iop."

game consisted of a match between
the regular team and the scrubs,
which resulted in a score of "a to z

regulars sustained a cut over the eye.
This is believed to be the only local
casualty of New Years day.
