the mere thought of the water brings
with it a suggestion of the country,
the blue sky and the pure air.
Many districts, however, are not
sufficiently close to the ocean to rem
der sea bathing possible and many
parts OF the country are entirely
without lakes or rivers or any body
Of water in which to battle. A very
practical solution Of the problem is,
therefore, the constructing OF
swimming pool upon the grounds
surrounding ones own home.
Adaptation of Ancient Idea.
The building of bathing pools can
hardly be considered new, but, like
many details of modern home build
irg. is rather an adaptation or per-
haps a revival of an ancient idea.
The Greeks and the Romans made
much of their plunge baths or pools,
which were placed either within the
walls of their beautiful villas and
palaces or amid the cool shades of
their pagnihcent gardens. Many OF
the wonderful villas discovered by
the excavators of Pompeii and Her
culaneum, possess such bathing pools
or "impluvia," and some villas are
provided with several, one, no doubt,
having been for the use of the
slaves and servants.
Pools for bathing or swimming
have been popular for many years in
clubs, hotels and athletic associa-
tons and more recently on the large
ocean liners. Perhaps familiarity
with the bathing pool amid such sur
roundings .has led 10 its being
adapted for the home and built for
family use.
Initial Cost the Only Expense.
The building OF beautiful swim
ming pool is by no means difficult,
nor need the cost be as great as that
OF many of the details which render
country living attractive. A truly
luxurious pool may be had for nc
more than the cost of really com.
plete motor boat or a motor car, and
the "upkeep" Of bathing pool is
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1914-08-13

built may often be secluded and sur
rounded by hedges and shrubbery to
make bathing as private as possible.
Quite as often, however, it is realized
that such a pool is exceedingly
decorative and far 100 important
architecturally to be hidden. Many
pools, therefore, are made conspic-
uous part of the decorative treatment
of the estate, placed On or below ter
races, surrounded by gardens and
made the central feature Of out-oi-
door decoration.
or Graduated Depth.
Sizes of bathing pools differ great
ly. A pool should, of course, be as
large as circumstances will allow
and hardly less than twenty-five feet
by Fifty feet The depth may vary
from two or three feet at one end TO
ten or twelve feet at the other. In
this way one end may be enjoyed by
the younger members Of the family
and diving into the deeper water will
be possible for the older members.
Lined with Cemented Brick or Con-
crete.
The actual construction OF bath
ing pool is not difficult. When the
excavation has been made the space
may be walled ana roored with
brick, plastered over with some vari-
ETY. of water proof cement. Often,
however, walls and floors are built
of concrete, which is. especially
adapted to the purpose by reason Of
its strength, which renders the walls
much less likely to crack with ex-
posure to the winters cold. a con-
crete construction may, indeed, be
filled at the beginning of winter TO
afford a surface for skating.
Very often use is made Of som.
form of ceramic mosaic or water
proof brick, which may be had in
many very beautiful colors. The APP
pearance Of a pool thus built is ex-
ceedingly interesting with the pat
terms Of the walls visible through the
clear water.

ARK green is a degree more

DARK green is degree more
fashionable than is blue for
steamer travelling garb. That
il 10 say, green is the color for deck
garments. Evening gowns need not
h considered, because the expert
,rced water traveller takes the din
ner costumes which she can get into
unsidsd if her own maid is i'll or her
s,ewardess overworked.
Covert, or a weave closely akin 70
il. is the ideal material for a deck
costume, because the darnpness Of
sea or river or lake seems not TO
seect it. Moreover, while reason
ably warm, it is comparatively light
in weight. And it does not readily
wrinkle.
Copy a Good Model
Having selected the shade and the
fabric for a deck costume, the next
step is to find a good model to copy.
No easy matter this, because so
nsnv Of the frocks which take the
fancy have the long overskirt, which
is likely 20 catch the wind, and is
therefore a nuisance on deck. The
lower portion of the frOck should be
IN one piece, and that as plain--com-
mensurate with becomingness-as it
is possible to have It.
Most practical, and at the same
time immensely chic, is the dull
green suit in phineo6te. Its skirt is
Dlain. save at front-centre, where it
is Joined by two short tabs-button-
ing from opposite directions over a
narrow fan Of seli-material starting
AZ the waistband. The pleating
shows as scarcely more than fl.e
line until it reaches the knees, where
It fares slightly. But it added the
width about the ankles necessary for
graceful and easy deck navigation.
4 COMPOSITE Jacket-Cape.
The upper portion Of this seagoing
suit is a composite jacket-cape, best
described as a paletot. Falling loose
ly from the shoulders 10 well below
the hips at back and sides, its rather
shorter straight fronts are joined by
long ends, which, crossed near the
waist over a white pique waistcoat,
hook under the back OF the wrap.

Majority Built Out-of-DOors.
There are several bathing pools in
America, placed within buildings
which resemble very closely the
courtyards which surrounded such
pools in the homes of antiquity. The
majority of American swimming pools,
however, are entirely out-of-doors in
the midst of lawns and gardens.

A very pretty coat with a cape col
lar was made OF the finest Of rice
cloth, and another kimono coat with
deep rolling cuffs was made OF oat-
meal cloth, which is little more than
net. Crepe de chine is still popular,
for it combines comfort, durability
and daintiness so admirably. A light
china silk that is tackled only at the
arm pit and in front at the neck is
very practical, for the laundering OF
it is greatly simplifed. There are
still the elaborate coats OF silk ben
