All set to dig out Your swim-

pause for one enemant, for noev's
a good time to thrink about the fin-
parlance of taking speeial care
Whenever you're near Water.
Last year saw a drop it: the
drowning statistics from. 1968,
This is most encouraging. 'How-
ever, there's one thing that IS
alarming. Tt's the fact that so

carelessness, Let' have a look at
the details to see why,

of these cases involved PeeDle
falling out of boats or falling into

lack of care played a big. fmrt. For
example, it stands against
reason to overload a boat, yet,
people continue to do this and
end up losing their lives. Non,
swireiners should always wear a
life jacket when they're out in a
boat, and in, a power boat it is
vital that everyeue sit in a secure
position,

known waters can be very dang-
erous..
An effective way of being pre-
pared against all these water
hazards is to take a course in
water safety. The Canadian Red
Cross Water Safety Service offerS
just this. its comprehensive pro-

of swimming, adaptability of the
