Press Comment


Some philosopher, whose identity
is unknown to fame, has given to the
world the homcly truth, That mo
man ever shouldered a muskct in de-
fensc of a boarding house" The wis
dom of saying this lies not In the ap-
parent aspersion case upon the board
ing house, but in the deeper mean
ing that men must have something
at stake to make them fight There
must be something that seems worth
fighting for, something that appeals
to color, that arouses the courage,
and something that inspires men to
to make men fight battles and win
them. That is what IL takes to stir
mp the spirit Of war and the uncon-
querable enthusiasm determination
that sweeps the field aad 'overWnelmS
the enemy. There must be a home
back there somewhere, a spot sacred
and dear, hearts true and trusting,
and memories that swell the breast
with pride and joy. When all OF
these blessings are given TO man,
who is there among us who would not
fight the devil and all Of his angels
to protect them? And SO men build
thcneelycs homes, beautity them, in
vite friends to visit and inspect them
and make the world better and hap.
pier Thus is permanent happiness
and prosperity fourd-not in the
boarding house that everybody
knocks, but in the home that every.
body enjoys and loves
! And it is with the home, so 1t is

coming from the shoemakers OF Dos

word from Boston, has explanations

with the same rhythm of motion, an
alternating overarrns. Keep in mind
the fact that we use the shoulder mus
cles, and not the arm muscles, to swim
the crawl; also that the drive of the
arms always must be to the rear.
Frog Kick Is Simple.
So, never reach forward as the rear
ward pressure will swing the arms for
ward by elevating each shoulder alter
nately. Then be sure to keep the ell
bows up and out and thus the palms
Of the hands always face to the rear
The position of the wrists also is i'm
portant, for they must be so hooked
that the flat hand can grip the water
The leg work is a puzzle to many,
but If you have not previously been
drilled in the frog kick it is simple
enough Keep the legs close together,
perfectly straight and stretched, but
not tense. Then separate them Slow
~ from above downward, but not side
wise, and bring them up together with
snap, short hitch kick as 1t were.
The principal trouble with those not
understandin the crawl stroke is that
they hold their breath and keep tho
leg muscles tense. thus exhausting
themselves. To correct defects OF leg
work 1t is well to place a pair OF water
wings under the waist line and drag
the legs without motion in a straight
line until you get control over the leg
muscles. at the same time using the
shoulder motions for the propelling
power.

got its name from the absurd habit Of
its devotees breasting the waves. In
all my experience / have seen only six
persons who could swim it right
Then why do instructors spend hours
over single pupils confusing them with
a stroke which has neither simplicity,
speed, utility or hygienic value to rec
ommend it when so persons can be
taught the crawl stroke in the same
length of time?
Easy to Learn Crawl Stroke.
The crawl stroke is so simple and so
easy that I have taught old gray
that method With the water at 80
to So degrees I will undertake to teach
anyone the crawl stroke in from one
to six lessons, the time varying with
the adapta bi1ity Of the pupil. Persons
having stiff muscles and that condi-
ton known as Methodist foot" are
the most difficult. Timidity in a pupil
never worries me, for, contrary to pop
ular notion, that IS the easiest fault
to overcome.
To understand the theory Of the
crawl stroke enter a canoe and take
hold of q double bladed paddle send
ing the canoe through the water. No
tice that We bear back on the water
bear downward or sidewise. Thus we
have the exact propulsion Of the crawl
stroke.
Take the arms as the paddles and
the hands as the blades of the paddles.

CORSON OPPOSES THE
BREAST STROKE
Expert Says Few Master Ilnstruors Are at Fault

failing to provide for instruction, and
in failing to provide swimming pools
and municipal bathing beaches, are not
entirely to blame. Much of the fault
may be laid right at the door of the
instructors. By this assertion I mean
those instructors who have made the
art of swimming not an art but a
muddle.
Opposed to Breast Stroke.
We read in nearly all their books
that the basis of the art Of swimming
is the breast stroke. To this I must
take exception, as it is a confusing
stroke. Yet most instructors insist on
this stroke for beginners. In Austria
liza it is a common saying that every
man, woman and child can swim ex-
cept the sailors. Another name for
the broad stroke on the breast is
sailor fashion"
The very name OF breast stroke is
mystifying, for it is not as much Of q
real breast stroke as the crawl or
trudgeon strokes. IN which the breast
muscles are used more. The stroke
