for special work along this line this
summer.

able. On investigation 1t was discov'
cred that not more than ten per cent.
of the women OF the city favored such
plan, and since the department was
opened and $40 members secured it
has become evident that the small
quarters in the w. C. T. U. building
would be entirely inadequate.
For the special benefit of the wo.
mems classes, special instructors will
be secured for the swimming pool,
and before the summer is over, 1t is
hoped by the "Y" officials to have at
least sixty per cent. of the women's
membership skilled in the mermaid
