Its influences she was reared. Both fathersnd
mother were stanch Puritans in faith and prac-
tice. Their Calvanism WAS rigid and their
ethics conservative and severe. Thus Puri-
tanic ideas, so potent for good in the early
New England life, were instilled into the souls
Of their children. From this early home dis

The plans of the committee Of the
Massachusetts Emergency and Hygiene
Association for the establishment of pub
lie baths in different sections of Boston
for the benefit of the poorer classes, have
attracted considerable attention About
a year ago the committee started public
bath on Prince street, at the North End
as an experiment, and it has become very
popular with the people living in that 10
cality. 1t is now proposed, if the neces-
sary $780, 900 can be raised, to build sever
al public bath houses in sections of the
city where they are needed, similar to
those of London and other English cities
There the public baths are located in hand
some buildings for the most part, each
having spacious marble tiled swimming
tank, which boys and men are allowed to
use at certain hours of the day, upon the
PAYMENT of a few pennies. Although
nothing so costly is contemplated by the
committee for Boston, it is the intention
now to have swimming tank in each
building for the boys. as well as tub and
shower baths for men and women.
