WASHINGTON, July 12.-There is
to be shower bath in the cellar OF
the White House. 1t has been re-

President, and it is evidently intend

When President Taft first arrived
at the White House he demanded.
not a shower bath. but a tub big
enough for his huge proportions. He
got it. There is wonder here If that
tub is still in the White House for.
if it is, it must be too large by far
