A fact of considerable importance to girls and women is that swimming is one exereise that does not develop the body in a way harm{ful to physical beauâ€" ty. The muscular development assoâ€" clated with swimming is of a sinooth rounded type rather than characterized by extremely harc, bunchy or knotty muscles. Flexibility in an tne joints 10 im i m se mm m se sw‘ ...."WWOOOQQQOOOOQOOQQQQOC postiur>, and of lateral symmetry. Swimming permits free and unobstructâ€" ed movements in the full range of joint action without sudden or violent jJars, due to contact with apparatus or to the Â¥round. Exercises Muscles No other exercise approaches swimâ€" ming for allround development. Swimâ€" ming exercises the larze fundamental muscles of the trunk and limbs. The leg kicks develop the lower back and abdomen muscles along with the leg musculature. The arm stroxes develâ€" op the chest and up>r back muscles. The muscles of respiration are develâ€" oped to an unusual degree. The upâ€" ward lifting and stretching of the arms acts to lift and broaden the chest. Suppleness is promoted generally in all the joints and much is done to equalize the unbalanced muscle pull asâ€" soclated with poor posture. Swimming is one of the very few exercises that promotes a symmetrical development of the arms and legs, of anteroposterior On account of the expected reâ€"open â€" Ing of the Riversice swimming pool, improved and fully supervised, there is special local interest in swimmihg and bathing. The toll of death each year from swimming accidents also forces attention to the subject. In the curâ€" rentâ€" issue of "Health", the magazine issued by the Health Leazue of Canâ€" ada, very special attention is given to swimming. An article by John D. Devâ€" lin on swimming is of special .. Mr. Devlin himself learned to swim when he was five years of age. He swam his first race at ten. After working for the Broadview Y.M.C.A. in Toronto for five years, he took his present position as Swimming Director of the Central Y.M.C.A., Toronto. He is also coach of the Mermaid Swimâ€" ming Club and the Toronto Police Swim Club and kholds the followins awards: Life Saver, YMCA.; Master Swimâ€" ming, Y.M.C.A.; Master Life Saver, YMCA.; Royal Life Saving Society Elementary Diploma, Bronze Medallion and Award of Merit.

Where Ponce de Leon failed, amphibious Canada is finding prolonged youthfuiness, zestful sport, vigorous health and relaxation in swimming and water sports. Bathing, the antecedent of swimming, survived the fall of Rome; survived, too. the days when the female costume conâ€" sisted of an apparatus constructed from 4 ply canvas and manilla rope. Down through the ag>s came this delightful activity until at the present time swimâ€" ming boasts an incomparably larger participation than any other sport in the world. In the last 10 years the swimmingz public in the United States has increased During 1934 thirty million persons in‘ the United States participated in two billion swims. The public‘s appreciation of the value of swimming is certainly apparent, and is indeed justifiable. Swimming enjoys the privilege of beâ€" ing known as the world‘s best all round body builder and developer. Most of the postures and movements in the water have a special corrective signifiâ€" cance. Because of this relationship, many institutions intimately associate the swimming and body building proâ€" grammes. This is true at Yale Uniâ€" versity. Skarstiom, one of the best American kinesiologists, makes the following statement, "No single exercise embodies ; 9 all the desirable features, all the beneâ€" | c ficial effects for which gymnastic work is practised.

Which is exactly the same technique as that used to tow a drownâ€" ing subject to safety. In addition to these important factors breast stroke is usually recognized as the best method of swimming underwater. _ _ When a person learns to swim the and just the crawl, picture what happens when that unexpected chokâ€" ing mouthful of water arrives. It is hard, if not impossible, for a beginner to keep on paddling along windmill style, with the face under water most of the time, and overcome a mouthful. Lifting the head out of the water forces the feet down and lifting the arms out almost invariably forces the swimmer uncer. The crawl is a wonderful stroke, easy to learn and much the fastest but I «disagree most emphatically with those that say it is as sare as the breast stroke. If you cannot swim, you can and should learn now. If you have already mastered some Old Father Neptune tricks, you should learn the art of lifeâ€" saving. Weekâ€"end trips, holidays at summer homes and camps bring their disastrous lessons of the nged for inâ€" struction in the perils of the water and how to overcome them. Most drowning accidents occur withâ€" in a few feet of safety and it is estimâ€" ated.that 90% of drownings could have been overcome if the victim had been able to swim a mere fifty feet. Obviâ€" ously, the best and safest way to preâ€" vent drowning accidents is for everyâ€" one to learn how to swim. And it is too late to take swimming lessons when you find yourself in difficulty in the water; perhaps, in the middle of a muddy stream with a current pulling at you, and you are unable to grasp a firm ‘ hold on a cloudless sky. Yz2ars ago, swimming was exceedingly difficult to, learn, but since the advent of new teaching methods, modern pools and a betiter understanding of stroke meâ€" chanics, untold millions have been able to enjoy the world‘s greatest of all sports often in a few simp:e tessons. l Now that the season is here and we are thinking in terms of holidays weekâ€"end trips and delightful days of refreshing sunshine and outdoor acâ€" tivities, we must realize what an imâ€" portant part aquatic sports play in our summer programme. We think of swimminz in terms of a delightful soâ€" cial and leisure time activity. We think of it from the standpoint of health and pure genuine fun. But we must also think of it in terms of safety, and remember that there are certain hazâ€" ards connected with this most worthâ€" while activity for which we should be prepared. se of women definitely in a position of advantage noted that most women c water better than men. that women are far men.

If, Mr. Denny says, the statoments re-‘ gayding the value of mines to a! community and to a government are trusâ€"and they are incontestableâ€" then it mu tion, which In our opinion, the cause for the gold miner has tbeen presented by Mr. Denny in manner succinct and unanâ€" swerable, and we are hopeful that his Allowance for capital repiacement in mines is admittedly one calling for special investigation into each case. The allowances already made in some countries do not take into account that the gold sold is part of the irreplacable stock forever parted with, or, in terms of banking, it represents both the loan and interest thereon. Curiously enough, Mr. Denny says, the gold mines themselves create a large part of the taxation they bear, represented in indirect taxation paid on goods purchased from manufacturâ€" ers who can live only by imposition of import taxes and can find markets only if mires flourish. This heavy inâ€" direct contribution to the country‘s reâ€" venue is, in itself, a concrete arguâ€" ment for lowering direct levies upon gold mines. ; | Miners rightfully ask why th-ey‘ should ke deposited by discriminatory1 taxation, particularly as banks and allI begin to produce. Nothing can alter the fact that the asset is reduced in proportion of principal and partly of profit. Taxation must, tnerefore, in fairness be framed in recognition of this feature. A mine cannot be reâ€" stocked. If ordinary lines of business, siuch as banking, were taxed on th» sums loaned, and on the profits made on the loan, the situation would be almost analagous to thiat of the gold miner. And if the same principles were applied to the banker as to the miner, such pressure would be brought to bear as would cause their quick reâ€" moval. which refers to taxation or mines. It is pointed out that mining differs from all other industries, which do not need to take into consideration a prescribâ€" ed business life. On the latter, taxaâ€" tion is only levied on profits recurrent for an indefinite future period.. Basic capital funds remain untouched. Gold mines, on the contrary, reduce ultimate capital from the moment they (From Globe and Mail) We have had the pleasure of readâ€" ing a most exhaustive report by Mr. George A.
