What a blessing a few public bath
houses at PENIS Grove would prove.
Mr.. French or some other energetic
man could make no m profitable in
vestment of money than to build a
dozen bath houses and fit them with
robes to hire. The healthful luxury
of a bath would be enjoyed by hun
dreds every week, if such a thing as
bath house. were erected here. They
could be put up and equipped at small
expense, and would pay "a large per-
centage for the money expended. Let
some one move in the matter at once.
