THE benefits of swimming are
l. many. but primary among them
are recreation. self-protection.
health and physical development.
Every one in the game. whether a
racer, a recreation seeker. begin
ner or just an enthusiast. tells of the
good the sport does in exercising
every muscle in the body.
The swimmer gains physical de-
velopment that is virtually impos-
sibIe to attain in any other sport.
In tennis. golf and base ball the
right forearm is enlarged from the
continual use of the forearm
muscles.
In track athletics the legs are
and so it goes down
through the various sports. Each
has a call for energy from one par
ticular part of the body.
In swimming the left side of the
body is called upon to do exactly as
the right side does. That is the
answer to the smooth. perfectly pro-
portioned lines of swimmer.
THE muscles, instead Of getting hard
i and knotted. are loose and pliable.
Cvmnasts Have Knotty Muscles.
