FUTURE OF PUBLIC BATHS
HEALTH COMMISSIONER DISCUSSES
OUTLOOK FOR NEXT SEASON.

In speaking Of the future of the pub
lie baths, with G OBJ reporter yes
terday, Health Commissioner DR.. Ohage
said:
ITO all appearances, improvements on
the st. Paul public baths will not be
made this year, as, of the whole in
debtedness, which originally amounted
tc $4,000, only about $4,000 has been con-
tributed up to date. This is certainly
poor showing for city like ST. Paul.
Hundreds of people had to be turned
away at times last summer on account
of inadequate space, and this will have to
be repeated again this year unless some
OF our wealthy and philosophical cit
liens come to our aid. This must be done
al once, however l understand that
there is a movement on foot to have all
of the children in our public and
parochial schools contribute cents
each for two or three months. 1 think
this is a good plan, and while it will
cause no hardship for each child to do 50,
the total will amount TO a great deal
and will impress upon the minds of the
children the satisfaction of cooperative
OwnerslA" We will keep the baths, any
how, and if everything fails, as a last
resort, we can raise the fees from and
5 cents to 5 and 10 cents, and in this
way pay the debt in a year or two.
Those who bring their bathing suits,
towels and soap will not be asked to pay
anything
