knowledge Can Avoid
Disaster in Family

Fathers too proud to let their
children know they can't swim
are flirting with disaster. in the
opinion of a top Washington ex-
pert.
ut is just as important for
parents to know how to swim as
it is for their children" says Jim
Campbell, aquatic director at Wal
ter Reed Hospital. ITO keep their
children from knowing they can't
swim, fathers often take foolish
chances"
It was Mr.. Campbell who
coached Washington's two young
stars, Mary Freeman and Barbara
Hobelman, to fame. His remarks
came on the eve Of this years

tected beaches and pools.

S. Never dive into unknown

become entangled in debris.
6. When racing, always swim
toward the shore. not away from

seemingly valid reason. In most
States. all that is necessary is to
present story that comedies with
the law and hides the real reasons
(often pure selfishness or just a
desire to get out from under
matrimonial restrictions) under
the cloak of "desertion." mental
cruelty" or anything else. the law
recognizes as a violation of the
marriage contract. This refers,
of course. to most, but not cutie
all. American States and some
Canadian provinces.
Most thoughtful Americans,
Mrs. B., are not only depressed
by this. but genuinely appalled, by
the statistics pertaining to di-
vorce. They believe. and so do I,
that when, as happens in a num-
Der of cities, the number of di-
vorce suits filed exceeds the
number of marriage licenses is
sued. it doesn't make sense.
But regarding your own grounds
for divorce and your own pro-
lection, leave that to your lawyer.
Your counselor will help you find
employment, if that is necessary.
AS for your rings. they belong to
you. In this country, divorced
women usually discard their we'd
ding rings and shift their engage
ment rings to their right hand
if they want to retain them. It
is a matter of personal taste.
