must be studied and the.
acaden is and financial aims for

for hunters
It's easier, to swim in a swim suit,
but here's what to do when.
you don't have time to change.
If you fall into deep water
wearing heavy (t boots and
clothing which probably weigh
20 pounds, chances are your
clothing Will absorb enough
water to add 60 pounds to your

In such V -a situation people
may panic and the result is a
drowning tragedy. -
St. John Ambulance cautions
duck hunters and others clothed
for spending a Yong day in our
crisp fall weather that the first
rule to follow to prevent
yourself from `drowning is to
relax. Clothing traps air so you
can float but you can lose the air
by thrashing around.
