INSTRUCTIONS ON LEARNING TO
SWIM AND SAVING THE DROWNING
BY +. D. stricker. NJ. D.

Swimming Is one OF the most use
ful Of the physical requirements Of
man. Open water swimming is one
of the most healthfui forms Of physi-
cal exercise. II not only brings into
play most OF the muscles OF the body
but It has generally stimulating
effect ON the whole organism.
A good swimmer has absolute con-
fidence In the water and does not lose
his head whatever the emergency
may be. Accidents while bathing are
not uncommon. so II behooves every
one who would master the art Of
swimming to be prepared to render
first aid whenever the occasion de-
mands II.
On seeing person struggling in
the water and in danger OF drowning,
no time should be lost ip going TO
his assistance. When approaching a
drowning person there is always dan
ger OF being clutched. but swimmer
who knows the right way TO deal with
a man in the water can easily avoid
this. II through some mistake he
finds himself seized by the drowning
person. necessary thing for the
swimmer to do is to take advantage
/ of his knowledge OF the water and
keep uppermost. as this weakens the
drowning person and makes the effort
of effecting a release much easier
than would be otherwise the case.
Methods OF Resuscitation
Death from drowning Is due to
asphyxiation or stopping the fresh
! air to the lungs. To resuscitate q
person from drowning artificial re-
spiration should be applied imme-
diately. Everyone should be familiar
with an approved method Of applying
artificial respiration. Many a life
might have been saved had the would
be rescuers known what to do. A
great deal can be done IL done quick
ly with the assurance that the method
used gives the best results.
In order to determine the most
efficient means Of resuscitation, the
United States government and the
American Medical association ap-
pointed a joint committee of the
foremost PSYCHOLOGISTS and surgeons
of this country to make a thorough
Investigation. They concluded after
an exhaustive investigation Of all
known methods OF resuscitation that
manual artificial respiration was the
most efficient first aid treatment OF
the asphyxiated.

 STOCK MARKET
~~~~~

New York, June 26-opening- Severe declines in the issues of the corn products company, whose dis solution has been ordered by the fed eral court, featured todays initial trading. The common stock opened with a single block of 5000 shares at 15 to 15A against last weeks closing quotation of 1914, and the preferred fell to 8S, soon extending its loss to ten points. In other quarters of the list the tendency was again towards irregularity, changes for the most part being limited to fractions Tennessee Copper and Industrial Alcohol, recent weak features, made gains of a point. Selling of Reading and Mexicans created general heaviness later.
 Noon.-There was steady liquidation of Corn Products at an extreme drop of 5 5-S points, making that stock next to Reading the most active issue of the forenoon. Readings weakness and its decline of three points had no ma terial effect on other rails but Mexi- cans were lower by 2 to points with almost as much far metals, motors and shipping shares. Industrial Alec hol reversed it's early course, falling to a new low price for the movement, and other specia Ities, including the war group, yielded to slight pressure There were few neutrahzing features, although U. s. Steel was firm. Bonds were lower.

of Finance

and serViceable. But since wool costs advanced so sharply, and dye prices have entered as a large element Of cost in the production of wool pro- ducts, there has come a demand for lightweight goods that will permit manufa curing clothiers to continue offering what are known as popular priced suits, i. e.. those selling at SIS and under.
 One of the latest cloths is very lightweight wool flannel suiting to sell at S11O yard. Such a cloth for women's wear it has been hitherto thought to be too 7imsy. However, clothiers who were shown the new samples bought the goods as activeIy as agents could take orders and one mill sold up it's output for the season in a few days. In past years it used to be considered that a serge weighing less than A ounces was too light for anything but late fall or early spring wear Now there are serges on the market as light as any Women's wear fabrics The standard 16-ounce serge is called a very choice and high-priced fabric and entirely too heavy for sum mer wear.
 Many of the new cloths are made of cotton and mohair exclusively. cotton warps. Some of the foreign schappe and wool and they make very slightly suits, although extremely light. There is not likely to be any serious difficulty in selling suits. from many of the new cloths, as some of the older styled cloths are advanced from 35c to soc 8 yard over the prices cur rent hardly a year ago.

With his own quiet mastery, he delivered a forceu1 address, reviewing the atti- tude of the Catholic church toward education through the ages unt1l the present time. He impressed upon his audience that the scope of parochial school education was threefold: A working Knowledge of the elementary 1 branches; a comprehensive grasp of God and His laws, and the doctrines and laws of His church, and a train l ing in such virtues as make for good 1 citizenship.
 He exhorted the graduates to bear in mind that the three things condu- 1 cive to success in any walk of life
 were: first, the interest they took in
 their work; secondly, the energy they l expended; and thirdly, the persever- ance with which they followed it. In conclusion, he bade them God speed 1 in such eloquent and touching 1an- 1 guage, as will long be remembered, by
 the Class of 19f6. After the presen- tation of diplomas the Rev. P. J. Me | C7ivney, pastor of the church, spoke
