BATHERS At BEACH
ARE CLEVER DIVERS
Amateurs Display Some Fancy
Stunts That Would Make
Professional Envious.

If you should happen to stroll down
belond the elipse, close by the Monu-
ment. some evening at 4:30, you would
see an exhibition in water diving that
would bid fair, II you hit upon lucky
day, to provide an entertainment bet
ter perhaps than you have sometimes
paid for.
Amateur diving as seen at the pools
by a number of the patrons, Is an art,
and there almost any day in the week
the observer may seen the man he may
meet about the street perform some of
the most difficult dives that are recog-
nized among the professional diving
fraternity.
From a board twelve feet above the
water a group of two or three young
men are always seen making ready
for dive. Ample opportunity is given
from this height to SHOW up dive
that is the sort one instinctvely knows
to be good" dive.
It's Easy to Tell.
And the layman who knows nothing
of the art himself can always call a
good dive when he sees it. 1t implies
what the diver knows as air form and
entry to the water. To vertibly sail
through the air with arched back. feet
pointed and close together. and body
stiff, is the necessary requisite for a
good dive. To enter the water with
out a clumsy splash is the other. In
the two there are difficulties hard even
for the old hand to surmount, and few
there are who can make successfully
the simplest dive at the beach, the
straight dive"
In the vocabulary of the habitue of
the bathing beach. there are a number
of dives which imply their own diff
culties. and which are known or un-
known to him. The swan dive. the
back and forward jack knife, the back
ward flip. the forward flip, the one and
half dive are not exhaustive of the

Hen Gives First Aid
To Choking Rooster

ST. LOUIS, Aug, 2a-Charles Stew
art, Of Marissa, the only dry town In
st. Clair county, ILL.,. owns a flock OF
chickens presided over by two roosters
One Of the roosters partook Of break
fast food, consisting Of a long wheat
straw.
When one-half Of the food was down
that part OF the chicken that some
times is warmed over for supper, the
straw stuck. The rooster tried the
usual chicken method of extracting the
straw-that of putting one foot on the
straw and pulling back his head. This
did not work.
His temper became ruffled and he be-
gan TO run around the yard. One of
the hens noticed his plight and coyIy
approached rim, reached UP. grabbed
the unswallowed end OF the straw and
pulled II forth.
The rooster -crowed his praise and
then turned around and whipped the
other rooster.

stunts seen at the beach, but they are
among the most difficult seen there.
Men Not Embarrassed.
'The men are better artists In diving
here than the women" said Assistant
supt. Sidney Cousens today. They
are less embarrassed with too much
bathing costume. and can effect q dive
without a splash that a woman can
scarcely do with the skirts she wears"
However, there are a number of
women at the beach who havemastered
the dives and some of them the more
difficult ones. including the areal SOM
ersaults. Among these are the Misses
Caroline Nelson, Minnie Schaefer and
Mabel Jones.
The young men who feature some of
the difficult dives at the beach are w.
