Dexter City Youth
figures In Drowning
Scare Al Pine Lake

What appeared to be a near
drowning at Pine Lake Monday
afternoon turned out to be a
false alarm when the final facts
were assembled.
A number of people were
swimming at the nearby lake and
Mrs. Louise Henery, of Belford
street, sitting on the shore, hap
pened to look over where moss
and other growth were present.
At first, not sure what she saw,
she finally realized there was a
child with his face under the
water and with quick thinking
rushed in and grabbed the child.
The boy, 4-year-old son of Mr..
and Mrs. Al Barton, of Dexter
City, was unharmed. A check
with his parents revealed that
such floating is a part OF the
youngsters water-play and he
was laundering because his hand
had slipped from the bottom of
the lake where it was resting.
The incident does point out
commercially the quick think
ing of Mrs. Henery, showing that
if the child had been near to
drowning, fatality would have
been averted.
1t also serves to point out the
danger of swimming in unsuper-
vised pools and should be a
reminder to all parents and chill
dren to observe extra precautions
when swimming in such an area.
