MORE ROOM IS NEEDED
AT PUBLIC BATHING BEACH

More dressing room is needed at
the bath house. The caretaker there
says that the present building is
wholly inadequate to meet the de-
mands made upon it especially on
Sunday and during the evening hours
There is but little doubt but that a
building equally as large as the pres
ent one should be provided, as bath
ing at this point has become a popu-
lar exercise and pastime, hundreds OF
people taking advantage of the facili-
ties now offered
The extension of the beach north OF
the present sandy strip would help
greatly and if the finances will not al
low of an elaborate bath house at
present, one could be provided for the
youngsters under 16 years old and the
present building with the private
lockers given over to the adults
The place has become very popular
and aside from the bathing one may
purchase soda and ice cream on the
grounds. On Sunday hundreds of peo-
pie took advantage of the bathing ar-
forded. One drawback this year is the
low stage of water but this may be
remedied before the season is over.

be a drawing card from a patriotic
standpoint
