CASUALTIES FROM jWIMMING
There is scarcely ;t day but that there is an account
[■ published of someone being drowned, either in a
I pool or same bathing resort. Swimming should be
one of the first accomplishments of boys and girls.
I they should be taught to swim as soon as they are old
I enough to totter around their mother's knee and
| that practice should be kept up so long as they live.
I it is an acquirement which should be given to every
child since as they grow up there is no telling how
' soon they may find themselves in need of their eatly
' training in aquatics.
But, with all the training they may receive, care
should be practiced by the experienced swimmer as
| much so as by the beginner. You can never tell
j when cramp may overtake you and regardless of your
ability to swim under normal conditions, such an at-
• tack unfit you lo cope with the water and the result
»is a sudden death.
H The Philadelphia Record in speaking of the im
portance ot'every child being taught to swim has this
precaution to offer to all who indulge in .this health
giving exercise: •
“Al man who had served ns n life guard at At
lantic City last summer, and who might he sup
posed, therefore, to know something of the haz-
t arda of swimming, was seized with cramps and
tnanjt in 00 feet of water at Lake Grubb, near
^..Lancaster. When first stricken, the dispatch
tel 4 us, he was given assistance by another ex
it pert swimmer, but he insisted <hnt he was all
'right. His friend loosened his hold, and the un
fortunate man was taken again with the deadly
' ■ crapipv and sank. Swimming is the most heaHh-
- 1 ful«f all sports—and the most dangerous. Even
£>• tha!atrongest should shun deep water and long
1 'exhausting swims; and the first suggestion of
pl fcrafcp is a warning that should he instantly
i;,- hedHed.”
Foolhardiness sometimes overreaches sane judg
ment 5ind the results are disastrous. No matter ho\V
good ft swimmer you may feel you are, and that no
(carrefet can carry you down, remember thnt there are
'times-Tvhcn you arc stricken with cramps that you are
^U helpless as though you were not a' trained swim-
jner uhd that help is needed just us much for you as
nit would be for oiie inexperienced.
- COUNTY NEWSPAPERS AN ASSET
WBCerover you find a live and progressive county
you \rfll find one or more weekly newspapers thriving
"and boosting the community. A county newspaper
jljrvef a purpose which no other agency can reach.
The editor is the moulder of the opinion of the com
munity and a builder cf the better thought and civic
tad igoral uplift- He can be depended upon to blaze
the way for progress, and development and to lead
his riders in the right direction for improvement and
for 4(fe and better conditions.
? Thl Charlotte, N. C., Observer has the following to
cay of the country newspapers:
m i ho country editor is becoming a man of more
- consequence in bin community, than the public is
disjmsed to believe. What would the country
people do without their home paper, unyway?
.So •good an authority as the chief of division of
/ rural schools at Washington, has prepared a
very attractive bouquet which he is tossing to the
; coqjrtry editor. This community asset, says the
' chwf of division, gives freely the use of his col-
iimns for publication of all news itemfi relating to
education in the territory covered by his pnper.
Hl&leads the movement for the establishment of
v the county agricultural high school. He points
' thj way to school consolidation in sections of
u th? county where several districts can unite to
hate one good school with high school grades.
H^volces the demand of the people of the outly-
1 ‘Ing: districts for modern school houses, for im
proved school methods with better pay for better
pliers. He advocates tho use of the school
ise as a community center, where the people
get together, not only to talk over school’s
tress, hut to discuss the many subjects relnt-
to better farming. The editor is the best
nd of the boys’ and girls’ clubs, which gen-
ly start in schools, and will print any num-
of items about the best acre of corn, the best
, ’the best chickens and the largest tomatoes
:d by the club members. And all this is free,
have never believed in referring to the weekly
spaper as “country newspapers” Why not
them by their right names, “County'News-

What Your First Want
Ad Teaches You
All your life you have heard of people
using want ads successfully, yet it may be
that you, yourself, may never have tasted
their usefulness.
The purpose of these little talks about
advertising is to induce you to order your
first want ad. After you have onqe made
Ihe test yourself and know from personal
experience of the rapidity of action and
definite results which may be secured, you
use want ads, thereafter, as a matter of
course.
Your first want ad teaches you that it
pays to advertise—that tenants may be se
cured, that customers may be obtained,
that quick sales may be brought about
through classified advertising. Study the
want ads published on this page and note
the very many different ways in which
people make use of them.
You may telephone your want ad. A
courteous trained ad-taker will answer
your call and be glad to carry out your in
structions faithfully.
