to those past so. but Aunt Maria is
docile. and made no complaint when,
next day her sister-in-law helped to
squeeze her into a corset too tight, and
shoes and gloves too small. and skirt

sunlight and the sparkle of dancing

YOU can. At some beaches nature seems
absolutely desecrated by the yelling
mob around.
While I'm scolding l might as well
add that a bathing beach should be
treated with as much respect as
park, and newspapers tin cans and
debris from picncs ought to be burned
up or gathered together neatly for re-
moval by the caretakers, or thrown out
to sea.
Now I've said all the disagreeable
things and with an easy mind I re-
turn to the bathers
At your American beaches, especially
on the Atlantic where the waves are
popular,
don't believe in bobbing up and
down while hanging to rope, be-
cause it is often dangerous, the women
especially standing just in the trough
of the sea where the wavesyare strong
est and where the undertoW is most
severe.
Added to this a kind of hysteria COM
bined with laughter and fright which
weakens the holders grip on the rope
and you have the material for many
bathing accidents and fatalities.
Learn to Swim.
Learn to swim, that is my advice
Then if you want the fun of bobbing
with the waves hang on to the rope a
little further out, beyond the spot
where they break. If you are torn
from your rope anchorage you will -

swim through the waves as they break

| confidence in her own powers, and she
will need this experience because 1t is
always better and less dangerous to
dive through a wave than to let it
break over one.
Begin with small waves to accustom
yourself to putting your head under
