Waukegan Road McHenry Swimming is one of the most pleasurable sports, yet, through carelessness and ignorance, thousands of deaths and accidents are charged to it each year, according to the educational committee of the Illinois State Medical society in HEALTH TALK. Everyone should know how to swim, not only for the enjoyment,' but for self-protection against injury or accident. Death by drowning is an all too frequent cause of death. Unfortunately, persons who know how to swim, as well as those who, do not. are involved But when this happens it is usually through carelessness. Good swimmers are more apt to take chances. Swimming a long distance is not always a factor in endurance. A swimmer a long way from shore may become too tired to swim back safely.. Such things as abdominal or leg cramps have affected good swimmers while in -deep water. They become panicky, lose their control and death by drowning is the result. A practical joker is a menace at the beach or pool. One who delights in pushing others into the water, or ducking them, may be responsible for a tragic accident. In children, particularly, a lifelong fear of the water may be inspired. Swimming or diving into unknown waters can be dangerous. Hidden rocks, boulders or logs have caused numerous accidents. A head-on crash into these has caused skull injuries, paralysis, even death. Be sure when you swim that the water is safe, free from contamination and pollution. Don't invite infection. Children should be taught to swim early in life, but so carefully and gradually that their confidence and liking of the water will grow. They should never be left alone or unguarded- Too many tiny tots have paddled to their premature deaths because their supervision was forgotten. Youngsters and adults susceptible to ear and nasal infections should not swim without their physician's permission. Some of these conditions may be aggravated. No one with a discharging ear or a perforated ear drum should attempt to swim. Violent nose blowing to remove" water should be avoided. Swimming is a relaxing sport. It gives the body a rhythmical grace, provides muscular activity and inspires mental relaxation. The bouyancy of the water gives to the body the sensation of having greater muscular strength and resiliency than really exists. That is why therapeutic value in rehabilitation, particularly in such conditions as poliomyelitis and arthritis. ^ So learn to swim. Join a swimming class if need be, but learn. Not only will you enjoy the relaxation it affords, but knowing how to swim will be your safety device should you be involved in a boating accident. Just knowing how to keep afloat will be your protection until help arrives. Remember swimming is a healthful and pleasurable sport. By adhering to sensible safety rules, you can do your part to keep it that way. Buy your rubber stamps at tht McHenry plaindealer.

The a\vard was based on a low bid of 27.4 cents per set of passenger plates. All of the 1958 plates will be made of a lightweight steel, eliminating the approximate 1,500,000 sets of plates made of aluminum in recent years. According to Secretary Carpentier this will save the state approximately $150.t)00 during the next biennium. Last year, aluminum sets of plates'cost the state 33.7 cents. At present postal rates the new plates can continue to be mailed for 8 cents per set. The savings will be realized despite the fact that Hemp's bid, because of increased steel prices, was 2.9 cents ,higher than last year. The 1958 plates will feature purple numerals on a white background. Secretary Carpentier said, as a tribute to Northwestern university, Evanston. SEPTEMBER HEARINi G.
