OUR BEAUTIFUL. LAKE AND
49,. BATHING BEACH. =. z' 81

When the good old pioneers estab-
lished the location of Warrington
right here on the. shores of Okabena.
Lake, there is little doubt but that
they had in view the bathing facili-
ties-they wanted to be clean and
keep Gle an. We understand those
pioneers used to go regularly to the:
lake, at least once week and take,
bath. Judging from the very few
people who now take advantange Of
the privilege, one might think..that
bathing was one of the things, that
with the advance of civilization had
fallen into disuse. Right here at
our very door is one of the most
beautiful sheets of limpid water
with sandy beaches, high banks and !,
mostly wooded shores TO be fonud in (
the whole state of Minnesota. a
few people, tits true take advantage
of it, boating frequently and bath y
ing occasionally,a at least. But where
half dozen people now may be
seen in it's waters on these beautiful
June evenings, there should = two
or three hundred or even more.
Bathing is good for all-old and
.young-and what a fine sisl:r5
would be to see several hun9,tl Of
our people, gray haired graz par.

ing in the beautiful water of Okla.

will find it a good money maker.
Many peopletwho have their own

and use his own bathing suit. Who

If no move is maze in the bove Dis
