Stevenson Helps Honor Son And Bride-To-Be LOUISVILLE, Ky. @ — Adlai Stevenson Sr. stepped into the middle of a gay swing of social festivities today, celebrating the coming event that will make him a father-in-law. The former Illinois governor and By DOROTHY V. WHIPPLE, M.D. Monday, September 13, 1954 THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Page 3 Your Child Today It’s a good idea for every child to learn to swim. Expose your child to some water (besides the bathtub) if you possible can. Before anyone can learn to swim he must feel easy and comfortable in the water. Fear is the greatest drawback to getting your feet off the bottom. You almost never go to a pub- lic beach that you do not see some over-enthusiastic father carry a screaming, clutching child into the water. There is no better way to prevent a youngster from learing to swim than by forcing him into the water when he is afraid. You only increase his fear. + It’s a whole lot better to go to the other extreme. Let a youngster play on the shore, dig in the sand—if there is sand— until he himself wants to dabble in the water. With somé children it takes a long time. They may never get wet above the waist for a whole summer, but eventually even a timid child will discover it’s fun to wade out into water up to his armpits. Then is your time to start teaching him strokes. It’s likely to be pretty frustrat- ing, when the trip to the beach is a single day’s expedition. You went to a lot of effort to get the kids to the beach and you know it won’t be possible again for a long time. You so much want them to enjoy swimming as you do. You just can’t bear to see all the beautiful day being wasted without getting more than the toes wet. You’d better just hold onto your- self. Let your child enjoy him- self the way he likes. You'll only do harm by forcing him into the water. Next time maybe he| will go in a little further, if he doesn’t have a memory of a fright to get over. If your child is quite young you have plenty of time. However if your child is getting on toward ten and has had very little chance to go swimming give him a few lessons (perhaps at a YMCA or a YWCA) if you possibly can. Under the guidance of a good teacher and with a group of youngsters of about his own age many a child will learn to swim quickly. Most children are a little timid ss SS VX-1 Luncheon.To Be At Raul’s Thursday The VX-1 Officer's Wives Club: will meet Thursday, Sept- ember 16 for its monthly lunch- eon.

Nel- when they first approach water. However once in a while you see a youngster who seems to lack all fear and will jump into water over his head even though he doesn’t know how to swim. I saw this happen one day. A father, who fortunately was a good swimmer was standing in water up to his neck. His 2-year- old daughter was on the edge of the pier. Jokingly, Daddy said to her “Jump in.” To everyone’s amazement she did. Daddy caught her, everyone made a terrific fuss about her. She beamed in all the commotion and wanted to do it again and again! Even after that it was a real danger to take her on the pier, becauise she wanted to jump in whether Daddy was there or not. Her family set to work to teach her to swim. In a month’s time that little mite of a thing was not only swimming but also diving!— (AP) Newsfeatures.
