By ERLING SWENSON Keprenentatlve From the Thirty-Fifth District in iortli Miiuieupolie I REMEMBER WAY BACK WHEN a practical or, rather impractical, joke on a small "gang" of North Minneapolis boys resulted In the near drowning of two of them in the river near the old Bovey-DcLaittre tw mill at Thirty-eighth avenue the pike-pole men pulling one out uncgnseious and the other saving himself in a way never before heard of.

Those who can't swim will do well to read all of this story. It illustrates Shakespeare's thought expressed in the line "There are more things in heaven, and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy." "Our was a live one, not' lough, but mischievious, and wo often made the neighbors, not to mention the river and saw-mill men, peevish. For Instance, there was a big church convention in town. A few of the more churchly dignitaries wore silk hats. Three of those were passing a big barn In our district.

We, waiting, patiently on the roof, took advantage of our unusual opportunity and threw a big sack filled with hay right on top of the silk hats. Another time we found a small fur, one of the kind with a head on one end and a on the other. The small legs sprawled out. Just as it got dark, we tied a black thread to the fur, placed It on the sidewalk, got in the alley back of the barn and waited for victims. Pretty soon a man came along and noticed what he supposed was a strange looking animal on the sidewalk.

He picked up a stone and threw it, but hia aim was poor. We jerked the thread. He got closer. We moved up the shadows of the the "animal" following In a jerky sort of fashion. By this time he was Veal curious and began to light matches, but we kept on jerking the thread 'so he wouldn't get too close.

When he found out the lioc, he chased us for blocks. It was things of that kind that made the river men want to teach us a thing or two. That's why they were all ready for us when we appeared at the boorna. The men were standing on two platforms, separated by a gap through which the logs were shoved into the log-channels by means of the Across the two platforms was a big plank. A couple of the boys got on the plank so they could get a better view of the logs going through the gap.

This was in 1899 or 1900 and there was a lot doing In those days and we boys wanted to see everything. The biggest saw-mlll cut as I remember, was only about a year later, or in 1901. The men noticed the two boys on tho plank and told us all to get on it in line as they wanted to show us Kometljdng. We did. And that's when it happened.

One of the men suddenly pulled the plank out from under us with his pike-pole and splash we went Into the river. The men thought we all could swim, but were mistaken. One of the boys plain. ly was drowning right In the middle of the gap, so a man jumped In, grabbed him the hair and pulled him out. The other boys kicked and squirmed and splashed and scrambled to get 6n the platforms and there surely was some excitement.

It was no wonder, under the circumstances, that one of the boys was overlooked. The plank, before it was moved, was near the ends of the platforms and this particular boy fell outside the gap. He couldn't swim a stroke with his head above water, but he'd been trying for weeks right In that district and had learned something without fully realizing it. First, he learned that he could hold his head under water without hanging on to his nose. All he had to do was to hold his breath.

Second, lie learned that when he so stuck his head under water, at the same time lifting his feet from the ground, he really was floating in an upright or semi-upright position. Third, he learned how to stretch himself out so ha floated on top of the water with his face down in It. Anyone in the world can do this as lonr as he holds his breath. All he had left to learn, therefore, was how to hold his head above) water when moving his arms and legs. Now, then.

Stop to think about the trouble this boy was It) when he fell into the water. It was a case of drown or swim, and he sank until he thought he'd never come up, but his quick mind saved him. The minute he got his head up, he took note of the direction of the shore, breathed deeply, stuck his head under the water, stretched himself out Just ns though taking a swimming lesson end began swinging his arms and kicking his feet with the franMc speed of one whose very life depended on It. That little fast-working mind knew the danger every second, and he hokl his breath to the very limit of endur. ance.

"Wheel" he half whistled when hlat head came up and then the most Important second of his life he felt for the bottom with his feet and touched it! Ho actually swam 10 12 feet tinder water for the first time In his life knowing that ho couldn't ewlm with his head above water! FUNERALS HANS C.
