Life-Savino or Drowning?

In an article on "Sports in Girls
Camps" in st. Nicholas, Anna Worth
ington Coale describes the tests for
rescue work, or life-saving require
ment of the United States Volunteer
Life-Savers. These tests, which are
taken by many of the older girls in
camp, put a good deal of zest into the
swimming.
"In order to pass the tests you must
know at least three different holds
which a drowning person would be
likely to make while struggling and
how to break them. You must also
be able to dive to the bottom and
bring up a supposedly drowned person
in proper form-head f1rst-and tow
her ashore, using any one of three ap-
proved methods of carrying, as, for ex-
ample, crooking the elbow under the
chin Of the victim and swimming on
the side You must then demonstrate
an approved method Of resuscitation,
usually the Schaeffer method, which
requires only one person to apply 1t.
The first thing on reaching shore is
to empty the water from the lungs
which, by the way, is never more than
two or three teaspoonfuls in amount
and induce breathing by pressure on
the ribs. If you have ever been called
upon to be the victim for someone's
practice you will understand why it
is still a question In some camps which
form of death is to be preferred; life
saving or mere drowning?"

NO DOGS ALLOWED ON TRAIN
But Conductor Had Embarrassing Mo-
ment When He Undertook to Ban
ish Canine to Baggage.

Soon after the train had started,
the conductor, in collecting his fares,
noticed q small white dog, with a
hushy tail and bright black eyes, costly
sitting on q seat beside young lady.
She was quite pretty, but the conduc-
tors duty was plain.
"Tm very sorry, madam" he said
with unusual suavity, "but it's against
the rules to have dogs in the passen-
ger cars"
ooh! dear! is that so?" replied the
young lady, looking beseechingly from
her brown eyes "What shall I do?
can't throw him away. He's present
for my aunt"
"Throw him away! By no means,
miss. Well put him in the baggage
car. and he'll be just as happy as the
robins in spring"
"What-put my nice white dog in

I'm sorry, miss, but the rules Of
this company. must be enforced. He
shall have my overcoat to lie on, and
the brakeman will give him crackers
and milk every time he opens his
mouth"
~ just know somebody will steal
him." she objected.
But the conductor was firm, and
called out to the brakeman, who was
carrying a signal flag.
"Here, Mike, put this dog in the bag
gage car, and tell them to take the best
of care of him."
The brakeman picked up the dog as
carefully as if it were a baby. There
was q sudden tWitching Of the facial
muscles, and he hastily said to the con-
ductOr:
"Here, you just hold him a minute
till I put this flag away"
Out Of the car door he went, and
held on to the brake wheel, shaking
like a man with ague.
The conductor laid his hands on the
dog, and then
y-wh-why-this is a worsted
dog" he gasped.
Eyes, sir" replied the little miss,
demurely; didn't you know that?"
"No, miss, I am sorry to say didn't

Stern-faced, tired, sorefooted from
unaccustOmed tramping, the man paced
along the side of a roadway 20 miles
from the city in the afternoon sun

and girl, each timidly clutching bas-

children looked at the mans stern,
tired face and timidly kept back the
words of invitation they wanted to
speak. AS the man paced by he caught

The Good of Life.

1t is essential for the community
and state that each citizen should be
brought up to fully understand that
his one duty towards himself and
others is to make the most out of
this life, to develop In himself the
possibilities nature has given him,
and be as happy as possible. In this
way he contributes most to the hap
piness of others. Let 1t be fully I'M
derstood that melancholy and pes
simism, though possibly attractive, are
sins if they lead to inactivity-as seri-
Gus as any sin in the world. They
have to be avoided by strict self-cOn-
troll. Life is in itself rich, beautiful
and full of possibilities. Let the
young man learn to see that, and not
pine for what is not. 1t should be al
ways remembered that it Is not the
views that man holds or the dogmas
he believes in that are of Importance;
it is his acts-Fridtjof Nansen.
