Is trying to inhale under water. A
Missourian who could not swim, was
reading in a Kansas paper first les
SON In swimming which pointed out
that if a person suddenly immersed
would gulp in air as he came to the
top, and exhale by mouse power be-
meath, he stood fine chance of res
cue. That afternoon this man was
plunged into river when his boat cap
sized. He recalled the lesson in a flash
and followed directions There Is no
knowing how many times he went I'M

yards down stream, he was finally
fished out. His companion was
