. minute ago and gone forever a
minute after. There is no need for
such accidents If people are careful
and conscientious about looking
after little ones who are taking
their first swimming lessons.
The older children who can swim
must be trained to behave cautiously
and respectfully in deep water.
Water has tremendous power and
a wave can sweep a strong, sturdy
boy under and out where the tide
runs strong. Boys and girls must
be taught to respect the power of
waves, the depth Of water, and learn
that there is wide span of diff
ference between courage and fool
hardness, between fear and caution.
Too many boys and girls are afraid
to say they are afraid to do stunts,
take dares, take chances while SWIM
ming. All should be 'briefed" every
day before swimming hour and have
such points OF conduct explained
for them.
Swimming Is an outstanding sport
for our children and We should do
all We can to help as many learn
1t ~ possible. Now y the time.

Learning to Swim
BY Aneelo Pafri

Children should be afforded a
chance to learn to swim. First, 1t
is q healthy. clean sport and great
fun; next, 1t affords a feeling Of
security in or on water; and last,
and quite important, it offers happy
hours OF play and companionship.
Swimming, too, is one sport that
lasts through childhood to old age.
The time to learn to swim is in
early childhood, when children have
learned to walk well. Let them hear
about the fun Of swimming and
make no mention Of danger. Take
the child along to the water and
let him play on the sand, let him
get wet and dirty II he likes, and,
by and by, he will edge down to
the water and dip his toes, or he
may even sit down In it. Gradually
he approaches the deeper water,
always with some responsible trusted
friend at hand-he never should be
alone near deep water.
Children must not be frightened.
SO don't toss small child into
deep water and tell him to swim
out In order to teach him. That
is murderous treatment and most
unlikely to teach q child confidence
in people, much less in the water.
Ease him into the water by carry
ing him on your back while you
swim q short distance. Swim back
to the beach and leave him there
for awhile. or until he begs for
another ride.

No. 3-An interesting variation
on this tree idea Is shown in the
lower left-hand panel. Roses have
been used as the color accents in
stead Of pinwheels. The effect is
one Of much greater formality and
"prettiness." The roses cannot be
placed too far in advance as they
will wilt. The romantic effect is
enhanced by the ribbon bow and
swag connecting the trees.
