GOOD DIVING is THE KEENEST
JOY OF ALL DEEP WATER SPORTS
Correct Posture Just Before
Diving, Posed by a Pupil

Diving is the most spectacular
part Of water sports and because Of
this many people neglect their
swimming In favor of 1t. They feed
UP on dessert, until they lose all
desire for the more beneficial foods.
Anyone. particularly a young gifl
who has nerve. can learn to dive.
1t requires skill. but not as much
as swimming does. SO with a stout
heart and little help the average
girl can soon enter water head first.
How to Dive.
The hardest part OF diving is the
hrst few attempts. The novice is
apt to land so fiat she will never try
again. or so deep that she thinks
she Is never coming up again. The
wise Instructor does her best to
avoid everything that will frighten
girl In the beginning. Most girls
can be taught the racers plunge i'm
medtately. They squat quite low.
arms stretched out in front, hands
tipped up. head down and give a
good push of. If girl is too timid
to do this she must sit on the edge
OF the pool, arms out In front mot
over head). head down. and then
mop In. Next let her try on the
knees, then on her feet.
Do Net Dive Flat.
When the beginner has learned
to go in, keeping her head down,
she must work for the spring that
makes the good diver 60 in with so
little splash. The girl stands on her
toes. knees slightly bent, falls for
ward and as she loses her balance,
straightens the knees. thus gaining
the desired spring. Most people
dive nat at first. because of the
strong instinct to raise the head as
they go. After attaining q good
dive from the side of the pool or
deck. a girl will advance rapidly,
trying from the diving board.
Every instructor should make II
her sacred duty to warn people
against diving in places where they
DO not know the depth of the water.
The racers plunge is the only safe
dive unless you are absolutely sure
how deep the water Is and how
deeply you dive. Don't ruin other
peoples pleasure in diving by be-
ing reckless and hurting yourself
or even breaking your neck.

"Oh. no! Now ! have you for sure,

Then she quickly took some OF the
stones she had saved from the cher

right in the face of the Pipsisewah-
"Oh, wow" he cried. 'Oh. didn't

in them! I'll be good! I'll be good"

Baby Bunty were safe with Nurse

Smocks are so comfortable and cool
for sports wear and at the same time.
SO pretty and becoming that they are
about the most popular article or

colors are embroidered in wools OF

particularly good when worn with the
new white crepe de chine or Georgette

AGAINST THE WINDS" BY
KATE JORDAN.

Naomi Tway is 20 when adventure
begins to call her. She has lived in
Lanetown all her life. And she is the
only daughter of a widowed mother
who has run down sadly at the heel.
Discovery of a certain evil enterprise
of that mother, entered upon rather
in weakness than in sin, drives Mao
mi away from home, away from
Lanetown, away to New York, where
adventure pursues her as related in
the novel, Against the Winds" by
Kate Jordan.
After time Naomi marries Andy
Caren, a fat travelling salesman, and
we don't see how she could do so,
Notwithstanding her hard luck in the
matter of getting jobs; but anyway,
Andy reveals a fondness for strong
drink and things go so far from bad
to worse that our heroine is forced
into frame of mind to listen to Gill
bert Hampton, gilded and expert
enced temptor.
Just how war intervenes and how
it affects Gilbert and Naomi We do
not feel justified in disclosing. 1t Is
all there in Against the Winds
which is precisely the kind of a story
to please readers who like that kind
of story.

REVIEW OF FICTION

AS we read w. l.. Georges new
book, Blind Alley" we are conscious
now Of an inclination to lay it aside
unfinished, again at an impulse to
throw it at the weather-the day be-
ing rainy-or at some other passing
offender. 1t is that kind of book
And one loosely written. Yet at the
end we find that Mr.. George has
gathered his loose ends UP into very
clear and comprehensive presentation
OF the states of mind in British
family under the actions and reac-
tons of war.
This theme, of course is not new
Mr.. Wells found it first. Mr.. Smith
and other English novelists have APP
piled themselves to it. Necessarily, Mr.
George has trenched upon matters and
emotions covered by his predecessors
His Sir Hugh Oakley is, indeed, a
modified Drifting with a baronetcy
But the Oakley household is com
pany quite by itself, it's members beth
different and differing.
Lady Oakley is frankly and vocifer-
ously a lingo. Stephen does his bit
al the front. Sylvia drives in the
motor service between adventures in
passion as occasionally qualified by
matrimony. Monica goes into muni-
tons unawakened and finds her
woman's heart under the ministra :
ton Of the welded but philandering
master of the works. The family
home is in rural Knapenden, and a
thorn in the side of patriotism there
is one Cradoc, a grocer, who argues
from conscientious objection and non
resistance up to a greater league OF
nations-a United States of the
world. Cradoc goes to jail for his
ideas. Sir Hugh goes through
doubts, depressions, mists OF logic, a
brief period under arms-and comes
out all for England.

1.-THE ROMANTIC LIAR"

To oblige his father, big New York
financier, young Robert Trent presents
himself to Eleanor Lowell as young
Robert Pinkham. 1t is an affair of
mining stocks and the strange will
left by Eleanor's father.
The thing has seemed clever and
pleasant enough to Trent until he has
met Miss Lowell. After that, compli-
cations arise faster than film flashes,
love at first sight leading the way.
And young Robert piles falsehood on
falsehood till he has broken all the
records for ground and lofty prevari-
cations.
Our Robert has played football at
Harvard, has driven an ammunition
wagon in France and has been re-
jected, because OF a damaged fist, for
the Royal Flying Corps. He is gal
liant fellow. He goes over the top
bravely, but before he Ia through with
the adventures credited to him in 'The
Romantic Liar" by Lawrence Perry,
he has faced many a peril of disas-
trously touching bottom. The story of
him, nevertheless, has the zip and zest
of fiction fully fit for spring reading.
