be about five acres of swimming area where
learners may always reach bottom and
cannot get into deep water without climb
ing over a wharf. This will eliminate the
cause OF every drowning that ever occurred
at the beach.
An underground aqueduct will admit
water and floating matter cannot enter
it. Wharves may be made permanent No
floats are required to be pumped, and no
tides with ice and storms can ever damage
the appliances in this Iand-locked lake.
Spectators may stroll along shore in a
grove of shady trees and seats may be
located in the shade for thousands.
"A half mile drive around the lake gives
an opportunity for hundreds to take in
the whole view of lake and bathers at
once without alightiug from their carriages.
This would be one of the most attractive
loops in the Washington Boulevard, and
the lake would be one of Washingtons s
attractions a natatOrium to be located
in the open river just across the neck of
land and near the Office for the use Of
naked bathers and all who need to use
soap is part of this design, as the new
swimming lake is not to be used at all
for the purposes of a bath tub.
IF to this 1 add the oft-repeated state
msnt that this basin has no connection
with any sewer or other water supply eS-
cept the Potomac River, ana through tnat
it is over a mile and half to the mouth
of the nearest sewer, and that sewer is now
cut of from nearly all its former conneC-
tions in the city, it may be seen that any
objections to the purity of the water Of the
inner basin for bathing purposes are fanci-
full and based on prejudice.
This lake contains $4,000 00O gallons Of
water This gives 4,5O0 gallons for each
one CT a thousand bathers a day, or over
$50 average bath tubs full to each bather
The communicating effect Of a person swim
ming in this lake would be about as much
as a hair pin in a bath tub. The whole
shore and whole bottom being covered
with sand, and nothing TO decay in the
water the churning and aerating Of the
water by diving and splashing would tend
to purify the water more than the .bathers
would contaminate it,
BY completing the improvements al
ready begun, Washington can have the
most beautiful bathing lake of any city in
the world, and that within four squares of
the White House, at one-tenth part of the
cost which ether cities Of equal size find
it profitable, in sanitary economy, to in
cur for mere boxed natatoriums'
