PRINCETON. N. J., Feb. 7.-That all

I they ara eligible for diplomas Is a recent
j mandate here that Is meeting with strict
auiuivriiTT-in, me ruie applies 10 me prea
ent senior class, and there re eeveral
membera of the rlaas who must pass the
test before June or have their graduation
deferred. The test Is to swim- 200 yards
showing a mastery of at least two strokes.
Dr. Joseph E. Raycroft, physical di
rector of Princeton, tells of a large pro
portion or entering students who are un
able to swim more than a short distance.
iie save, "Of every entering clasa fifty
or sixty students: are unable to awlm at
all and about ino can swim noorlv. Thus
about a third of each entering class must
be Instructed In the essentials ot swim
ming. In addition to the above number
15 per cent more of the clasa require a
certain amount ot further practice be
fore they become able to pass the test."
The Princeton director of swimming,
Frank J. Sullivan, nnlnta nut. "Tha u.
uit of tha enforcement of this nil. la
that every man In Princeton, with but
few exceptions. Is able to swiim before
ha graduates, thus making a record' tha
like of which no other university, college,
athletlo club or preparatory school la
aihle to boast. Other rnltaana hava an
failed teats, but they are mora or leas
farcical. Pennsylvania's test Is only
thirty-three yards and Columbia's twenty
five. The universities of Chicago, Wis
consin and Illinois all have tests, but
they are the same rallber.
v hen the distance for the Princeton
test was first discussed the following
fasts were taken Into oonalderatlon: A
man can swim twenty-five yards by mere
brute strength, without havlna- anv rec
ognised stroke. A man who ha a stroke
which will carry him for 100 varda whim
awlm SCO yards In an emergency, and
wnen a man can swim 800 yards ha will
be able to cover two mile wlien there
Is a need for it.
"Besides awimmlns. the first nrinini
of life saving are part of the class work
ana must be thoroughly mastered. Tha
details and mora difficult bilim.
aver, are taught la the Life Saving club,
whooe testa are harder thaa any other
Ilka organisation la tha world, not even
excepting the Royal Life Bavtng society
ot London, which Is supposed to be the

Some Bakeries Pay
July Flour Prices
That some big Omaha bakeries wer
lucky enough to contract for a year's sup
ply of flour before the war sent price
soaring, and that they are now rasping
a harvest by selling their bread on the
basts of the present flour prloe, is an
assertion not for publication mad re
cently by member of a large Omaha
baking company.
Whil now selling bread at th war
price of i cents for a tiny twelve-ounce
loaf, soma ef th big bakeries ara said
to b paying th aama old prlc for flour
that prevailed last July, before war was
declared.' Only the lard and other minor
Ingredient of their bread are costing
(hem more thaa usual.
Whan asked about the matter, the
aforementioned prominent baker said.
"Why shouldn't wa raise the price of
brad? Grain men who bought wheat at
n or M cent last summer are new sell
ing that wheat for U-to. Furthermor.
when our present flour contract ntn out
and w hav to draw our supplies from
th irnt V per barrel market, or the
ts er market that ia probably coming,
thera won't be a cent of profit In th
baking business. We are simply taking
th legitimate profit of the business
while It la available."

CORSETS
AND THE
. New
- Mftnillaryr Shape
Y7ITH all due respect to
those fashion writers
who assert that "there will be
no important changes in cor
set shapes this season," we
beg to state that there will be
and very decided changes.
The new "Military" shape is
here. We have already told
you about this. So far, the
waist-line is not much accen
tuated; but. before the Lilacs
bloom, you will see a marked
increase in this respect.
Spring modes in dress will
compel the wearing of corsets
with higher bust This is
certain. Corset skirts will
gradually grow shorter.
This doesn't presage the
"hour-glass" figure, but simply
a rational return to corsets that
are real corsets.
