SOME SUGGESTIONS FOR THOSE
CUTE LITTLE GERMAN TOYS

A week or two ago there was place,
on exhibition In a Missoula business
house, a shipment Of German toy
| which it was announced were to b.

man soldiers. The public bought on
the lot in short order and another or
der for seven boxes, 1t was stated, hat
been made.
Observing the promptness will
which the public responded to the in.
vitaticn to buy, former Sergeant Ton
Cummins, a Missoula soldier who
fought in some Of the large battle,
in France and was wounded. wrote te

The remarks Of Sergetn Cummins
are perhaps bitter, yet his memory OF
the war. like the memories Ct his
comrades who fought in the dirt and
Crime on foreign fields, ia more vivid
than those of us who remained at
home during thu great war. When
he contemplated the lot CT many Am
erfcan soldiers since the war, it is not
surprising that his comment on the

men. while there is so much to do
here at home fer our own men, is
tinged with sarcasm.
In part he wrote:
II suppose I arm too late to get in

suggestions for some Of the cute lit

"FOr instance. order me several

SOME THINGS TO DO IN
LEARNING TO SWIM
(By Associated Press)

Louisville, Ky, June lHCon-
fidence and encouragement are
the keys to successful swimming
according to hCarles L. Schontz,
of the Louisville Y. NJ. c. A. I'm.
less the beginner has confidence
in his own ability he never VIII
learn to swim successfully, in thu
opinion of Mr.. Schontz.
There are hundreds of profess
sional swimming teachers, &C
cording to Mr.. Schontz, and ev-
cry one of them will tell their
pupils that their method is the
best. The instructions which Mr..
Schontz gives beginners have
been Obtined from conversations
with instructors at Manhattan
Beach, Brighton Beach, the New
York Athletic Club and other or
CARNATIONS. He gives his sys-
tenn, not as the only one, but as
one of the many systems which
are successful.
The classes in swimming at the
Y. M. c. A. here vary according
to the type of pupils. Fat and
elderly persons usually get bet
ter results from side and breast
strokes; medium, slender or thin
persons usually take readily to-
the crawl stroke, which undoubt-
edly is the easiest stroke when
mastered, according to Schontz,
He recommends that pupils con
fine their efforts to one stroke
when beginning and acquire abil-
ity in one method.
The first lesson for men andl
boys is usually the same. Mr.l
Scflontz hs outlined his system
as follows:
First Lesson
Pupil is told to get into the
water and grasp overflow drain
with both hands.
2-No wput your head under
water. Do not try to hold It'll
there.
3-Now hold your head UNDER
and count five.
4-Count fifteen next time.
5-Blow air out through nose
under water.
6AOpen eyes under water.
ZStay under and count Is.
Richmond daily register. (Richmond, Madison County, Ky.) 1917-1978, 1922-06-14
8-Take deep breath; go UNDER

8-Takc deep breath go under
and exhale under water; come
! up, take breath and go down
again. This IS done in rhythm.
9-Now walk across pool with
face under water, lifting face,
whichever side is more natural,
ard breathe iii through mouth.
Face downward and exhaie thru
nose. (Must be learned perfect
ly; yer yimportant.)
10-Take deep breath, grasp
knees and float doubled up. Hold
as long as possible.
11-Dead Mans Float. Place
back to wall, lift feet against it.
Push off and extend arms and
legs to flat position on top of
water.
Dupring the first lesson never
hurry or push pupils. Ii pupil is
afraid of water be patient and
help him to get over it gradually.
From 20 to 50 minutes Of steady
work is plenty for first lesson.
Lesson Two Crawl Sfroke)
Review Of first lesson for
few minutes.
2-Next comes kick. Place
one hand against side Of pool.
other grasping drain rail Legs
perfectly stilf-open and close
moderately rapid. Use about
ten inch thrash.
3-Now do dead mans float.
