BREATHING IN THE WATER.
In Dolnn It Proparly Lloa tho Secret of
Uuccess In Swimming.
The uy to avoid drowning, accord
ing to m swimming tcaclier. Is to lenrn
how to iiwlm. Good swimmers don't
drown. They might dio of chill or
starve r.j death, but nu for drowning
pooh!
"How about cramps?" he was nsked.
"Kven good swimmer havo wimps."
"Cramps needn't cause n moiucnt'H
worry. I've seen thousands of good
swIiniueM seized with cramps, nnd
never u one was drowned. All they did
was to turn over on their backs mid
either wnlt for help or paddlo with
their frco limbs. I'vo never heard of a
swimmer having crumps In both legn
nnd nrniM. i:vun then his case would
not bo hopeless.
"Thero never was a case of drowning
that was caused by cramps. That may
seem surprising after tho countless
water tragedies that have been bhimt'il
on crumps, Death In tho wnler Is caus
ed by chill or htrnngllng.
"I'eoplo strangle to death because
they are Iguoriiut of tho proper method
of breathing. When they sink beneath
the water they hold their air. passages
shut. When Ihey come to tho top they
have to breathe out tho nlr they've
used wldle under water. As breathing
out takei fifty times as long ns breath
ing In. they liave no time to get u frosii
death.
"The process fliould be reversed.
Itreathe In for the Hecond you nro
iiIhivi water: then breathe out tlirougb
the nostrils while under the water, mi, I
yon can keep It up until you starve to
death.
"Xlne-tenths of swimming Is breath
ing, nml movement Is only one-tenth,"
hays tho expert. Kansas City Star.

County division Is being talked
about thoso days In tho most unex

sion of tho subject appears In Inst
week's number of tho Redmond
Spokesman, which says editorially as
follows:
"It Is certain that tho question of
county division will come up again
at tho eloetion next year. Whether
thero will bo ns hot a fight this tlmo
over tho question as thero was last
year romnlns to bo Been.
"Last year columns and columns
of arguments for and against division
wore written, nnd thousands of news
papers and clrculnrs printed and dis
tributed to tho voters, nnd n good
deal of hard fooling mndo that has
not yet boon heated over.
"It Is to bo hoped that tho county
dlvlslonists tho coming year can get
together on somo satisfactory plan
of division nnd ellmlnnto the former
bitter fighting nnd personalities, and
all work for a common object.
