them a swimming pool. The boys of
Ely for sometime past have endeav-
ored 10 interest the county in a plan
10 convert the court house lake into
a public swimming pool. but the COM
missioners have hesitated for the rea-
son that they did not believe IL ad-
visable to make an expenditure of
county money in a project that would
be for the benefit of one locality
more than another. Arguments have
been made before the board TO IL

would be for the benefit of O great
majority and that no taxpayer in
the county would criticize a small
expenditure that would give enjoy
ment TO such a large number

scattered. each boy firmly believing
that everything had been done to
