 Philadelphia can assert almost without dispute that it leads in the making of expert women and girl swimmers. In no other city east of the Pacific coast areIdhera so many record-holding and record breaking women swimmers, and this despite the fact that that city hasn't nearly so many natural facilities as New York, Boston and. other eastern cities.
 Philadelphia, however, has many finely equipped indoor pools, and it is in these pools that the record break ing girls have received their early training under the watchfnl eyes of competent instructors, who have brought into play every scientific point that would prove of aid to speed or endurance.
 That these women have attained the enyiable heights of record holding is due in nearly every case to the essen. tial fact that they began their swim ming with good foundali lion. Learn ing to swim each stroke correctly and not trying to take up more diff cult movement until each fundamen- tai is thoroughly 1carMeAis the secret of the success of all qq4r great swim mers.
 The swimming rool is the greatest training spot for the swimmers of interior cities, and perhaps for the lake and water front cities as well.

 I feel that my series of articles Ill The Graphic would not be complete without reference to swimming pools in cities The building of nata- torium is not a difficult matter and if you would ask your city authorities to obtain figure as to the probable cost they would be amazed at the ap- parent cheapness of the cost of erect ing natatorium.
 A sunny location should be chosen, in fact. wherever possible the pool should be built on hill or elevation.
 Sunshine would and always will be the greatest asset. No chemicals of any kind should ever be used to purl- fy the water. Instead of this. if jet of running water be allowed to run through the pool at all times, it will purify the water more than any amount of chemicals could.
 The pool should always be shallow at one end and about eight or nine feet deep at the other. It is always best to line the inside Of the tank with white tiling. A good-slzed pool should be at least sixty feet long and thirty feet wide.
 A continuous stream Of water IS let into the pool and the overflow will carry away the collection of sed- iment.
 The pool should be emptied and cleaned once q week.
 The temperature of the water should be 72 degrees. A plentiful supply of shower baths will greatly help the sanitary conditions of the pool. ,..,
