But, whereas, a human body can not be taken apart, the marâ€" lonettes come into many sections. They have eyelashes, eyebrows, mouths that open and close, eyes and all the other features of the audience who so interâ€" estedly watch them perform. Strings are attached to the different portions of the body, and caught in a wooden panel which is held by the person who operates the strings. "We must know the exact position of the strings." said Mrs. Forsyth, ‘"for we cannot look at them while the performance is going on." If the operator takes his eyes away from the body of his marionette, the strings are liable to become tanâ€" gled, and not only cause a great deal of work, but also spoil the scene.

Swimming will be admitted by all to be the principal pastime of sumâ€" mer in this district for the most of people, and especially for the youugâ€" sters. Recently there has been muâ€"h said about the need for one or more swimming pools. It is recognized that practically all of the swimming places easily accessible to the qghildren of the town are unsafe for one reason or another. Fatalites at the river in past years prove that there is danger in that body of water. It is because of this tHat the proposal has been made reâ€" cently that three or four swimming pools be established to meet the need;s of allâ€" in town. Several swimming pools would mest the needs much better than one large pool that would of neâ€" cessity l some distance from all other sections of the town. In addition sevâ€" eral smaller pools ccluld be constructed for much less than one large pool. In addition pools located at differ>nt voâ€" sitions in the town would serve several localities much better than the one large pool, situated in one parâ€" ticular section, but expected to m»et the needs of all other sections. With the swimming pool at the river reâ€" opened, and the possibility of a new pool being built at Gillies Lake, a good start would be made in supplying the needs.. If the two pools were in operaâ€" tion this year, there is every reason to such that not only the yclungsters ma learn to swim and enjoy the water, h that the best of swimmers wi have something worth while to do : the swimming pool. There will k enough swimming and diving that a should get their fill. Arrangemen are also planned for Scouts, Tuxi Trail Rangeors, Guides, and others, pass tests in and If pressnt plans are followed out, it is expected that the Riverside swimâ€" ming pcol will be all ready for reâ€"op*nâ€" ing by July ist. Under the present plan, there will be supervision of the swimming pool at all times and it wi‘} be conducted in such a way that ther» will be> the maximum of advantage for all with perfect safety.
