Learn TO Swim.

In the city or Chicago 5000
school boys have asked the Y M. G.
A. for Instructions in swimming and
the association has prepared to
teach them This Is refreshing com

health giving, none that conduces
more TO safety Every year wit
nesses a frightful less Of life by
drowning that could have been
largely prevented If oil children
we're taught to swim Most boys
learn from instinct, II given the OPP
portunity, but there are thousands
In the cities 70 whom the chance ia
denied. 1t is for the sake of these
that swimming pools should be es-
tablished by such organizations az
the Y. M. G.. A., o., better still, by
the public schools themselves.
In many foreign cities public
baths and swimming pools are pro-
vided by the municipality In Ameri.
ca that would doubtless be objected
to as paternalistic, although we
shall come to 1t In time. But
whether established by the munici.
pality, by the schools or by chart
table organizations, these baths ant
pools are public need. 1t would b.
well lf every child were taught t,
swim as part Of the presc7ibe'
course. Nothing would make NOR

THE ARMY cANTEEN.

There Is no question whatever
In my mind or in tie minds OF
the great majority of officers Of
experience In the service that the
abolition Of the army cantean
has done much to increase i'm
morality ard to relax the bonds
OF discipline in the army. The
intentions Of those who were nc
tive I'm its abolition were IN
doubtedly good, but their igno-
rance Of the actual situation pre-
vailing was profound. 1t Is dit-
ficult for any one who was IA
miliar with the conditions which
existed In the army under the
canteen to discuss with patience
the question Of its abolition, The
abolition Of the canteen has been
one Of the strongest Influences
against discipline which we have
had to combat. and ! earnestly
urge its restoration, being con-
WINGED thar such restoration Is
IN the interests Of the morality
and discipline OF the army Gen.
eral Leonard Wood.
