the water and I feel certain that you will not experience any difficulty in mastering the stroke.
 It is rather difficult to teach you the kick used in the crawl and I sug- gest that after you have mastered the arm movement you should carefully study my instructions and then eX- pertinent until you have become ac- customed to the movement. The main point is to keep the legs rather limp Bend them from the knees in an up and down movement, but do not let them come out of the water.
 There are many ways of doing the crawl and 1 advise my pupils to watch those at the pool who know the stroke. In this way it will only take them a short time, with the knowledge they
 already have to master this stroke. Tomorrow Miss Kellermann tells her pupils how to perform "stunts" in the water. This is the beginning of series within a series that will bring delight to all beginners and many professional swimmers as well.

on the piano stol and take the same position as for the trudgeon. Now place both hands on the line with the hip, hands flat and elbows about a foot from the body. If you bend the elbows you will find that the distance from the body will be the same from the elbows to the tip of the fingers Try to initiate a windmill in action Keep the head and face down straight. You will find this a very strenuous exercise. Keep up this movement un- til you can do the full swing with ease.
 Now as to the leg movement. To tell the truth there is not much of a leg movement to the crawl and I advise you all to keep the legs straight out until you can propel your selves in the '% water with the arm movement alone. When you try the crawl in the water be sure to keep the head ill the position I have explained to you.
 When you have mastered this movement out of the water try it in

How to O>PerfOrm the Australian Crawl
 is Described by Annette kellermann
Most Famous Woman sofN
 Strokes for Sprint Racing t Her Graphic Glass;
By ANNETTE KELLERMANN

] had intended beginning today a series of five or six articles about diving. But I have changed my mind hot because l am a woman, as some of you may think, but because have overlooked a stroke of much import ance to swimmers and also because l know of several other things you would desire to have me tell you first.
 The ignored stroke is the Austral- ian crawl This stroke was first used in Australia by the Cavills, famous swimmers. I have always been very grateful to the Cavills, for, in a way they aided F. ? great deal. It was at Farmers baths, in Sydney, where I learned to swim and my daily com panions were the Cavills. They help ed me later on to become the so-call- ed worlds champion woman swim- mer. l have never claimed this title. l say this so that you will not mis- construe my statement.
 ] have given up swimming-'pro- fessionally," at least for all time, but am still a great admirer of the sport and will always do everything in my power to advance it.
 Most of my swimming exhibitions Will be given in motion pictures here after because the surroundings for this seem to be ideal.
 Now as to the crawl"
 The crawl is great stroke, for what IS termed sprint racing. It must be developed slowly, for it is only bene- ficial when the swimmer understands it perfectly
 There is slight difference between the trudgeon and the crawl In the crawl a double windmill effect is used. By this l mean that the arms remain away from the body and the head and ! lace must remain straight down in the water, to be turned only when re- qulred, for fresh breath of air. Scooping, with a big s is the secret of speed while using the crawl. my self have never used the crawl stroke ; for the reason that I have never been called upon to use it in any of the competitions I entered. Nevertheless, it should be learned by all swimmers for it may come in handy sometimes. The only difference | between the crawl and the trudgeon IS this: You use your arms the same way except that you make a wider and deeper sweep of the arms and Keep the body we'll in the water. The wrist plays a very important part in the movement of the arms, because it is bent to aid the scooping movement on the hand The swing of the arms starts the same as the trudgeon, then as 1t hits the water twists sideways and downward back as far as possible. The left does the same. This move, ment must be done regularly and not too quickly. Try this movement out of the water in the usual way. Lie

Fashions of To-Day By May Manton

Normal little girls like to learn to cook at all times but just now there seems an especial reason why they should be so trained and an exceptional incentive for effort, and this cooking set is an especial help. In the picture, the cape is put on rather jauntily, but when real cooking is in process every hair, must be tucked away. Butchers linen and India Head, long cloth and simple fabrics of the sort are the appropriate ones. The apron is very simple to make and very easy to adjust. The little half sleeves are drawn on over those of the frock and the cap is just a simple circular piece drawn up by means of a tape or elastic inserted in a casing. Any girl who feels so inclined can make the suit a little more fancy by using a tiny, bit of cross stitch embroidery on the bib and on the pockets.
 For the I4-year size will be needed, 3A yards of material 36 inches wide.
 The pattern No. 9477 is cut in sizes for 8 or 10, 12 or IA years. It will be mailed to any address by the Fashion Depart ment of this paper, on receipt of tan f>or,tc
