, the Corps members will be in charge of the protection and
discipline of bathers, the instruction of swimming, and supervision of
diving.

The following is suggested as a good distribution. Two in each life
boat, oarsman and coxswain, one person on the dock, two lookouts and
messenger in the tower, one at diving board and one or two instructing
swimming (change instructors every third day).

_The Swimming Test._ After every camper has had a medical examination he
should have a test in swimming and be graded in one of three classes:
Non-Swimmer, red knot on right shoulder; Beginner--the ones that will
still bear watching--white knot on right shoulder; Swimmer, American Red
Cross Junior Life Saving Corps emblem.

Check your list up every once in a while to see that everybody is in the
right class. Hold frequent tests to re-classify two lower grades. The
graded Red Cross tests are recommended and arrangements can be made for
Red Cross awards.

Supervision of Boating

A Non-Swimmer should never be allowed to take out a boat unless
accompanied by a swimmer. The Beginners should be limited in the
distance they can go and only the Swimmers should be allowed to go where
they please. At least two-thirds of every boat load should be able to
swim and take care of those who cannot swim.

Under no circumstances allow more than one boat to be towed behind a
motor or sail boat, and then only if boat being towed is in hands of an
expert coxswain.

No boating should be allowed during bathing periods.

Detail one of the crew to give instructions in boat handling if
necessary.

Have all boats in by "Mess gear" unless special permission is given.

No boating after dark without special permission.

Every camper should know how to tie up a boat, if he wishes to use them.
See that he does it.

A simple set of rules may be drawn up and posted in prominent places so
that every camper will know exactly what the bathing regulations are.
The following are a few suggestions. No one is allowed to swim for at
least two hours after meals. No swimming allowed in the heat of the day.
No one is allowed to swim if he has any stomach disorder. A limit set
on number allowed in boats. No boats loaded with campers allowed to be
towed behind motor boats. Absolutely no swimming to be permitted unless
life boat is on hand for protection of bathers.

Of course these rules may be modified to suit each camp's local
problems, but if these suggest
