Hours for Ladies at bathing Beach.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
The arrival of the warm season has turn
ed public attention to the great comfort of
the bathing beach, which has actually be-
come a feature of tine Washington summer
Being patronized by a great many ladies'
could it be possible to allow them more
comfortable hours? Al present three morn
ings, Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays,
from to 10 O'Clock, are allowed them
Considering the distance of the bathing
beach, and the nacceSSibility of the local
ty, it is very difficult, not to say impossi bile
for lady. clerk in one of the departments
or engaged III private offices or stores, to
reap physical benefit from the BATH
even If she succeeds in not being late at her
place of business. Just fancy: She must
leave her home at half-Dast 6, without
breakfast. of course. Even if she reaches
the beach at sharp it will take her at
least one hour to register, secure her kew
unpack, dress, battle, dress again and re-
pack her satchel. 1t is then O'Clock BY
the time she reaches home to deposit her
bundle, gobble few mouthfuls and choke
down cup of coffee she gives a quick
glance at the clock and rushes madly to
her place of business, only to be informed
that she is late. The consequence is t.Iat
the lady ba:hers are limited to young girls
with bikes and no occupation, schools being
closed during the warm weather. Mothers
of families and all ladies employed in one
capacity or other are virtually disbarred
Men and boys having practically the
whole week to themselves, could we'll af-
ford to allow the ladies two afternoons a
week, from till close of day The point
has often been discussed among ladies' and
last year with the officials of the beach,
The latter We're then understood to say
that ladies would be allowed to battle if
they came. But the public does not under
stand 1t that way. lady fears that If she
comes in the afternoon she may either he
refused admission or, if allowed to enter
find herself uncomfortably conspicuous.
With such an alternative, the prospect of
not, dusty walk is not very tempting.
Could you kindly inform the public in gen
eral of the views of the beach officials
whether any afternoon is reserved for the
lanes, or, there being no special time
awarded them, If they can drop in without
startling, the community? NAIAD
