First Kellermann Lesson
For Swimmers Tomorrow
The Woman With the Most Perfect Figure In the World
Tells Why Children Should Follow Her Lessons

| AS / stated In my article yester-
day. swimming is an art and should
be respected as such. can say with
perfect safety that only about 90
per cent OF the American swimmers
| have seen have what is termed a
perfect stroke. That is why | am
certain that my course OF dry-land
swimming articles will accomplish
such wonders.
! do not wish to appear ridiculous
and say that after taking these dry
land lessons you will swim the mo-
| ment you touch the water. but | do
say that mastery OF what / will
teach you through this newspaper
In just few brief lessons will mean
that within an hour after you enter
the water you will be able TO swim
properly and with a good stroke.
Most OF the swimmers I have seen,
while they are able to swim and
swim for quite a distance. have a
bad stroke. II is either ungainly or
not finished and still they wonder
why they are not champion swim.
mers.
Furthermore, IL anyone should tell
these swimmers that their stroke is
bad. the chances are they would not
believe you and would say Well
what Is the right way"
Perfection in swimming is just
as important az in dancing, II is
my purpose and intention TO train
my pupils through The Times so
thoroughly in the art OF making
perfect stroke that when the time
comes for them TO enter the water
they will have nothing TO think of
except how to float.
earnestly request fathers and
mothers to influence their children
TO follow my course in The Times
for II will benefit them In a thousand
| ways.
DO not let the child enter the wa
ter and splash about, making two
or three strokes and then cry out:
Look mamma, and above all
things do aot praise children at this
stage ] ask all mothers TO keep
their children out OF the water un.
I'll tLey know how 10 swim prop
/ erly.
Three or four yards covered in
the water by child of 10 or -
years is considered quite an achieve
mont in this country But 4, should
not be considered so at all.
In Australia, the land OF my birth.
there are little boys and girls around
the age Of IL who are wonderful
swimmers and able TO swim great
! distances.
That is just why have desired
10 start this national swimming
f, class through The Times and a
group OF other influential papers. /
| figure that such class can be kept
up and that the interest il will ere
ate will mean the establishment of
definite body from which will
spring hundreds of excellent swim.
mers.
A worlds champion swimmer, un.
discovered and unknown, will soon
be In the making. Everyone has an
equal chance. 1t may be you who
VIII reach that honored position
one that any king might be proud
of

The Freshman class of 316 is the
largest class that has ever been en-
rolled.
It is interesting to know that
since the law was passed requiring
the state board of charities and
corrections to investigate each ap-
plication for free tuition, the amount
of tuition paid increased 92 IL per
cent this year, exclusive of those
cases referred to the board for in
vestigation.

DAIRY COWS SUFFER rs. <
FROM LACK OF SHELTER

Clemson College, s.. c., Nov. 2O.-
The dairy cow often suffers the most
from exposure to the weather be-
fore real winter has begun. After
steady cold comes the cow is gem
orally stabbed. Exposure to cold rains
in November is often more injurious
to the animal than the colder but dry
weather later in the winter.
The dairy cows is not like the fat
steer, protected from cold by layer
of fat. AS result, bad weather
causes a big drop in milk produc-
ton. So long as the weather is dry
it is just as well to leave the COW
outside nights for some time yet,
but every cold rain should find her
protected. ~,
1t is not necessary in this climate
to 60 to any great expense on most
farms in order that the barn may be
warm. The main thing is to have
tight walls so there is no draft or
wind and good roof. Care should
be taken in arranging he stalls in
the form of a platform of the right
length and a. gutter of sufficient
depth to hold the manure. The
cleanliness of the milk depends to
q considerable extent upon having
the barn built so the cow will keep
herself clean.
Fall plowing kills thousands and
thousands of insects.
