After you have become accustomed to this way of breathing, advise you all to try it also whila swimming the breast stroke for not until you have accomplished this perfectly will you really enjoy swimming any dis tance
 Do not gasp for the air when you breathe this way, but do everything naturally A good intake of breata and a slow exhale and the lesson has been accomplished.
 Now please do try hard to overcome this little effort and we will be happy once again.
 One more suggestion: Now that so many of you know how to swim, do not attempt anything foolish. Re member that if you go leyond the safety zone so marked out by the swimming club or swimming beach proprietor you do so at your own risk. The very saddest thing that can happen to you is to acquire a reputation of being good swimmer when in reality you know yourself to he still a little weak. Do not at tempt to show your prowess in the water or venture out a distance where better and abler swimmers fear to tread. Try to be sensible Try to acquire "a clean reputation that you will be proud of. Bo not be a dare devil; it will never pay you in the long run.

tBY ANNETTE kELLERMANN.)

have received few letters from members of The Graphic-Annettc Kellermann swimming class who find tt tdifficult to swim any great dis tahce without becoming fatigued.
 From their letters I gather that they are blaming the failure of their efforts on what they term strength"
 Ore letter in particular states that the writer fears she is not strong enough to become d proficient swim mer. She writes mo that she tires Very quickly and lis all out of breath after few strokes"
 Now will explain to her and all of you exactly why you tire so quickly The reason is not that you are weak. but that those of you who suffer from this weakness are net breathing prop erly. Now bear this in mind: Noth- ing can or will tire you more quickly than improper breathing
 In tact breathing should be consid- cred seriously and is just as impor- tant as the swimming itself. To be a good swimmer means to breath properly. feel that I must literally pound thi into You all. so that you wilt remember it, I want you to be fully up to the mark in all lines of the swimming art for will soon start the first lesson in diving and l want you all to be ready for it as soon as I start teaching.
 Now as to breathing while swim ming ill the water.
 Of course. when doing the breast stroke, you ought to breath only thru the nose for if you should happen to open the mouth you would soon fill it with water, and that would not be pleasant
 But remember that you only breath this way while you do the breast stroke, for all other strokes you must breathe through the mouth and nose. That is, you must inhale through the mouth as your head comes around during the motion of the body and ex- hale through the nose as Your head resumes its natural position near to the water again.
 You will find that after you have practiced this method of breathing you will not tire half so quickly.

wayne COUNTY MEN
TO FORM COMPANIES
IF COUNTRY CALLS

1t can be stated that preparations
are now in progress for the organiza-
tion Of military company, to be re-
cruited entirely in Wayne county, just
as soon as congress formally declares
war.
For the time being the names of the
men back of this movement will not
be made public. 1t is probable that
the work of organizing the Wayne
county company and companies in 9TH
er neighboring counties will be in
trusted to Wayne county man who
holds the rank of major in the United
States Army Officers Reserve Corps
Falls Back Of Volunteers.
1nasmuch as the regular army and
the national guard are not of suffic-
lent strength to meet the situation
which will result from war, the United
States will, as in all other Of it's wars,
have to fall back on the volunteer sys-
tenn to secure an army of the required
strength.
1t is believed that the Presidents
call for volunteers will be enthusiastic
ally responded to by Wayne county
young men. 1t has been predicted
that company enlisted up to full
war strength, $50 men. could be re-
cruited in Wayne county within 4S
hours. The company which would be
enlisted in Wayne county would be as
signed, of course, to an Indiana volun-
teer regiment
1t will be just nineteen years next
month when Wayne county responded
to the nations call to arms by recruit
ing company which became unit of
the 161st. Indiana Volunteer Infantry.
It will be remembered that the Unit
ed States declared war on Spain, April
21, 1898. The i61st Indiana never saw
active service but was assigned to gar.
rison duty at Havana, Cuba.

INSTRUCT MUELLER
TO PRESENT PLANS
DRAWN FOR BRIDGES

Engineer Mueller has notified county
commissioners that he will present
plans for the Main and South G street
bridges for approval either Saturday,
March 81, or Monday, April 2. He had
planned to present the plans for ap-
proval. Saturday. but his work in
directing relief after the Newcastle
tornado delayed them.
Commissioners will probably order
advertisements for bids, Monday, April
e. Contracts will be let the first week
in May. While in session Saturday,
the board Of commissioners will decide
upon the time they will ask Mueller
to present plans.
Because Of the delay in plans which
has held up the letting of contracts. 1t
Is thought by county officials that It
will be impossible for contractor to
finish the Main street bridge this
year II one contractor gets both
bridges, the South G street structure
will probably not be finished before
the close Of the summer Of 1918 at the
earliest.
1t had been the original plan OF the
commissioners to let the contracts the
last OF March or first Of April at the
latest.

BY GERMANS
OPENED ON

(By Associated Press)

What may prove to be the opening
Of q German offensive on the Russian
front Il reported in today's Russian
Official statement.
"The German attack was delivered
towards the northern end Of the front.
In the region southeast Of Wilma, al.
most directly east Of Ida. The Rus.
sian position there was preached, but
afterwards the Germans were driven
out Of village they had occupied. A
portion of the positions, however, re-
mained in their hands.
The Berlin official statement reports
this movement as raid in force and
does not mention the retention Of any
ground gained. The Russian position
was penetrated as far as the second
line, It Is declared, and the raiders re.
turned with 225 prisoners, two guns.
six machine guns and other booty.
The German statement also reports
q revival Of activity on the Roumanian
front with the armies Of Archduke

activity in the region Of Fokshani
along the line in south Moldavia The

Nest of German
Spies Coddled
in Russian Court
(By Associated Press)


PETROGRAD, Via London, March
22.-The Russian VOLTA, in a long un-
signed article, exposes what it terms
the treason of the court clique and
alleges that Tsarskoe-Selo. was nest
of German spies"
The paper says that special com
mittee has been appointed to investi
gate the Grimes of former ministers
during the last "Bacchanalian night.
mare years of the dynasty, on which
Rasputin put the final touches. The
article says in part:
1.-THE first crime was treason and
espionage had its nest in the palace.
The court was partly and chiefly Ger
man and the pitiful role of Sturmar
in his efforts to draw Russia toward
separate peace was known every
where. The press of our allies &C
cused Russia of giving Germany Rus
sian military secrets.
''Alexie Rhvostoff, who was dismiss
ed as minister of the interior because
he aimed to divorce Nicholas and
Alexandra and kill Rasputin was sur
rounded by German spies who were
sending out military secrets easily
learned from the drunken monk.
Rhvostoff himself one of the band of
dark forces, did nothing to hinder the
treason at Tsarskoe-Selo."
