GETTING A START.

Keep your hands at the hips until you
have ascertained the speed at which your
body is changing angle. and mark, by
the way. that it is essential to make the
start WITHOUT turning momentum, or the
angular change will be too rapid 10 con-
troll with the head. or even with the arms.
Then " will be necessary for you 10 bend
ar hips or knees. thus marrlng the dive.
III the take-off is right you should be
able to maintain the balance by merely
throwing out the arms and moving them
back and forth, toward the head or from
it. As the downward impetus increases
you may spread the hands fiat, or at an
angle 20 the resistant air. TO assist in
holding your poise.
Unless the water is OF great depth 1t
should be struck az an angle OF about $50
degrees Just before entering bring the
inner edges of your hands together and
interlock the thumbs; hold arms fully
extended, In line with the body and head
between them. TIE body must be main
tanned straight and rigid until the feet
are covered. Then relax Immediately
below the shoulders. incline head and
arms upward and bring yourself to the
surface, that is. TO horizontal position, as
quickly as possible. Do not, however.
bend too suddenly. or the back may be
painfully strained. II is we'll in relaxing
to separate the legs. But, above all, don't
fail to lock the thumbs. otherwise you
will suffer har1 Jolt on the shoulder

A DEFECT REMEDIEO.

When Frank allen. now a performer
OF championship calibre, Joined the New
York Athletic club he had good form in
the air. but splashy entries ruined his
work. while training one day he asked
Walter Lee, the well known crack. TO
watch him. and TO give him advice. Lee
promptly told him 10 focus his sight on
the balcony above the pool until ready
to enter. and by doing this Mullen sur
mounted his difficulty In a very few days.
The point is worth remembering.
Novices should never practise from a
height greater thai. two or three feet: 1t
is both dangerous and Improbable. Later
the height may be increased, but gradu-
ally, for the arm and shoulder muscles
are subjected to heavy shock In hitting
after big drop. and they must be accus-
toned to the strain by degrees.
George Gaidzick, Of Chicago. who re-
Gently defeated the present Olympic
champion, Adlez, gives some valuable
hints in regard TO control, entry, etc. lie
says:
when about to dive from height,
step TO the edge OF the platform. take
yourself well in hand and steady your
self by leaning on the rail provided for
the purpose Then look down and calcu-
late carefully the angle at which you
must regulate the descent in order 10
strike properly. When you have decided.
place your hands at the hips. throw out

Now, had the cruiser been far from land
and her inner and outer bottoms been
ripped open. she could have been brought
safely to port by the prompt application
of the compressed air system which Mr..
Wotherspoon had provided for her. No
matter how that damage was occasioned,
the compressed air would have met the
sea upon it's own terms and proved VIC

Of this protective installation is to guard
ships Of war against the consequences OF
torpedo attack or an untoward stumbling
upon submarine mines. But, just the
same, naval vessels are imperilled like
other seagoing craft by hitting uncharted
rocks, grounding In a fog and the ever
present menace Of collisions. The tests
of the installation aboard the North Caro-
lima silenced every critic and showed that
the cruiser could survive wounds that
would probably send a sister ship not so

MEETING THE PRESSURE.

Now, TO meet the added pressure which
the bulkheads and the deck enyeloping
this space would have to bear-tending
to burst them asunder-renforceme is
promptly obtained by charging the adj
joining subdivisions with supporting air
under pressure. even though these cham
bers be unchanged. BY extending this
system OF defence against the menacing
waters, the burden OF meeting the tax Is
very widely distributed. and the ship
structure is ample I'm its own united
strength to halt the Intrusive ocean and
10 localize the harm done. Bulkheads and
decks which might otherwise give success
slvely as they were exposed separately TO
the pressure of the sea, by this union of
forces would be quite equal to the great
est stress to which they might be sub
jected in this way.

that the vessel at that point drew forty
feet OF water. This would mean that the
maximum pressure of the sea coming in
through the lowest wound would be a
trifle over seventeen pounds TO the square
inch. Air pressure just little in excess
of this would be sufficient to cause the
water to withdraw. and IL the compart-
ments Immediately enveloping this in
jured space should be charged with air at
twelve pounds, then the walls combining
the sea would have only the difference
say. 5.5 pounds of pressure the square

less than they are normally designed TO
bear Now, by reducing the pressures In
