and difficult to determine in many cases, treatment
involves attack the condition from many
different angles. Every possible of infection

Rest is especially significant, because the expert
of years shows that damaged tissues recover
best when they permitted to rest.
If real cure of this kind can be taken away from

DEAD MANS FLOAT
NOW TAUGHT At Y
Basis of American Crawl
Stroke Taken Up in Star
Y. M. c. A. Course.

The. dead mans float" basis OF the
American crawl stroEe, was being
taught today to the more than 45o
men enrolled in the Starry. M. c. A.
learn to-swim course at the Central
Y. M. G. A.
Having built up confidence through
preliminary exercises yesterday. the
non-swimmers, in their second lesson,
were shown how to coast or glide
across the shallow end of the pool
without aid of arms or legs.
Performance of Float.
This dead mans float was per-
formed by lying face downward in
the pool and holding the breath, with
arms extended forward and legs held
rigid and straight. The coasting ef-
feet was achieved next by giving a
vigorous shove against the side OF the
pool and assuming the floating posi-

than 20 feet in this way.
Chief Instructors Dallas Shirley and
John Mullady expressed satisfaction
with the progress being made by the
beginners, several of whom are in
their late COS. Most of the students
are young men, however.
In tomorrow's lesson the beginners
will be taught the LEG thrash" or
"futter kick'-an important factor
in accomplishing the crawl stroke as
practiced by Johnny Weismuller and
other champion swimmers.
Divided Into Glasses.
The men are divided into classes OF
30 or more each, and each group is
given about half an hour of expert
instruction and practice. All facili-
ties are being supplied entirely free
by the Young Mems Christian AsSo-
citation.
Six lessons in all are scheduled, the
final session to be held Saturday.
Ralph w. Foster, Y. M. G. A. director
of physical education, predicted that
by the end of this week majority of
the men will have learned how to
swim-at least to degree enabling
them to take care of themselves in
the water under normal circum-
stances. Additional practice should
bring perfection, he declared.

Mrs. Roosevelt Advocates
Plan for Peace Before
Duke Institute.
Bv the Associated Press.


DURHAM, N. c., June l2.-The
first step for the United States to
take toward assuring world peace and
disarmament of all nations is to con-
troll the manufacture and sale of mu-
nitions and then it should abolish
all armed forces used primarily for
attack, Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt
asserted last night.
I'VE should take the lead in the
movement for world peace because we
are the most secure Nation in the
world" Mrs. Roosevelt said, address,
ing the Duke University Institute on
International Relations.
THE first step in this country is
to control the manufacture and sale
of munitions. This would not hurt
our security, but it will hurt some
pockets.
1--WE can lead in this and ask others
to follow.
Then the next step would be to
have only the armed forces we need
for defense and do away with forces
used primarily for attack"
America must be willing to accept
compromises, she said. This Nation
should maintain an efficient Army and
Navy as long as other nations main
tain them, she continued, but it should
also have the conviction that some
thing must be done to bring about
world peace.

starting at every footstep, there was

Don't trot your head of for those
crabs" advised Miss Crane, who was
a junior on the floor. II don't mind
when they are really sick, but they
Just want attention"
There was a lusty wall from the
nursery.
Watch it." said Miss Crane. Every
light along the corridor went on and
anxious grandmothers appeared at the
doors of some rooms. Every one Of
them thinks it's her baby, because she
would know its voice anywhere. Just
trot along, Connell, and stop at every
door and tell them you've just come
from the nursery and you know for Q

Mazda had not seen her mother and
Stanley, although they had been home
several days. The trip across the city
was too long to be made on the street
car between Z and 10, If she allowed
herself any time to talk. She planned
to spend her next half day at home
and hear about the triumphs of Hot
Springs. She was anxious to see her
mother and Stanley, but she had al
ready become so absorbed in the life
Of the hospital that other activities
seemed q little unreal. Her chief pre-
occupation was the hope that her

She had barely finished bathing Mrs.
Erdman, combing her hair, and tidy
ing the room when it was 9 O'Clock
and time to go to class, and she mar
veled at Bert, who had been assigned
three post-operatives to do in mems
surgical, and who seemed to have
come through with flying colors.
In the afternoon she gave back rubs,
passed on the basins for the after
noon face washing and passed supper
trays, and when evening came she was
so utterly weary that she wondered
how the girls who worked all day
managed to stand it. She adjusted
herself in a few days, however, and
soon it seemed entirely natural to be
ministering to proud mothers of new
babies, going swiftly down the cor
ridors on her rubber -shod feet at the
summons Of the red light over the
door, peeping into the nursery at
the little cocoons lying in neat rows.
It was the happiest floor In the
hospital, where one could work with
out the feeling of futility and despair
that seemed to come to the girls who
saw the slow progress of painful and
loathsome diseases, or the sudden cut
ting of of hope that followed an un-
successful operation. Here, on the
pavilion, mothers made a gala event
Of their lying-in. They wore charm
ing negligees, entertained groups of
friends, and If sometimes Maida's
heart was wrung by the groans of
woman or by the sight of anxious
young fathers pacing the veranda,

MAZDA was to 60 to o. 3. In the
private pavilion, and she ventured to
ask a junior standing near how to
get there.
You're lucky to start on private"
she told Mazda. They work you to
death on the wards .
Don't you believe 1t, KID" said
another. "I'd rather do up six ward
patients than one private. Every
thing has to be just SO. you.can never
suit them, and they act as II you were
some sort of servant"
They were not very rushed on 211
and besides helping with the trays
Mazda had only one patient to do up.
But the strain Of giving her first bath
and making her first bed with a real
patient in 1t made. her nervous, and
when the patient said with a sly smile,
"You haven't been here very long,
have you?" Mazda felt herself q fail
ure.
"It seems quite q WHILE" she said
with dignity, for it would never do
to let Mrs. Erdman suspect she was
the first patient Of raw probationer.

mother might be inspired to hand out
q little cash as Homecoming gift.
MAZDA had announced that she would
not be q burden. any more than she
could helpi She thought that was
fair, since she had refused to join In
the big social campaign, and so she
had said she would take only $40 q
month. However, she had forgotten
that she would have to- buy books the
first month, and as q result her cash
was very low.
Don't I wish I had some of the
money that's been spent on flowers for
that Boone woman" said Miss Crane.
as If she had read Maida's thoughts.
They were in the utility room, and
Mazda was just unwrapping another
long florists box. s.
"Who is she, anyway" asked Mazda.
"She couldn't have more attention
paid her if she were the Presidents
wife"
"who is shel" snorted Miss Crane,
who had socialistic views. "JuSt q
millionaire, that's all. She is cousin
of the Debrells, visiting here indefi-
nitely, and all the socially ambitious
are paying court to her. Just look at
that, will you?"
MAZDA had opened the box, and an
array Of orchids lay blinking at the
two girls in their insolent, exotic
beauty.
About $50 worth, should esti-
mate" remarked Mazda dryly.
She put them In water and carried
them with the card to Mrs. Boone's
