THE SWIMMING POOL
Every Week Many Out-of-Town visI-
tors Come From Miles Around
10 Enjoy Cool Waters
WATER CHANGED AND FILTERED
Report Says Pool Is Largest OF Its Kind
I'm all the Southwest Outside Of
the Big California Resorts

The swimming pool ON Eight Street
between Pine and Spruce streets Is one
Of the most popular places In Deming
just now, rs II remained wet even af-
ter the drouth that began July /. The
records kept by manager W. =. Hughes
shows that 5000 persons visit the pool
every week and many OF these from
points outside OF Deming. He thinks
that many Deming residents do not
fully appreciate the pool or more of
them would take advantage OF the lux
ury Of the cool water during these
warm days. II is the largest and best
equipped pool in New Mexico and
probably all the Southwest, being 90 by
100 feet and and running from a few
inches TO eight feet In depth. There 10
a diving platform for the "husikes''
and spring board. Glenn bathing
suits and towels are always ON hand
and dressing room always available.
The pool hs just been thoroughly
cleaned and fresh water run into IL.
In addition this water is filtered every
thirty-six hours through four feet Of
sand and gravel and Is chemically
treated TO make sure that II Is sterile.
Any diseoloration OF the water is due
to the precipitation OF the iron and
added chemicals.
X has been suggested that very
inviting amusement park, including a
childrens' play ground could be built
up around the pool which would be
great asset TO the community.

Ameriean-British-Freneh Treaty

Paris. July 6.-The American
French British defensive treaty, which
was signed recently and is being car
ried to Washington by President VII
son personally, shows distinctive
changes from the outline heretofore
given. one change making IL far more
powerful and the other affecting its
APPLICATION.
The announcement of the measure
as first pTintd in the Journal and
later given disingenuous denial by
those speaking for the president who
feared the news might unfavorably
affect the treaty was TO Icome opera
tive in the event Of aggressive action
by Germany against France.
The actual covenant, which Arthur
]. Balfour, acting chief OF the British
commission, calls a tripartite alliance
for defense, defnies such an aggres-
sive action as being violation Of any
of the military clauses Of the peace
treaty. which are recited fully and
accentuate the points that failure to
comply with any of them shall he re-
garded as a violation OF all and, ipso
facto. shall constitute an attack upon
France.

ed A. w. Pollard TO draw a contract for
the transfer In conformity with the
resolutions published last week. II was
an enthusiastic throng that gathered
around the board last Wednesday and
II is certain that interest In community

the work and proceed with certainty to
its accomplishment. This COMMITTEES
consists of the Rev. X. l.. Houlder,

oil by fall; Il. w. Taylor, president OF
the Demlng- Bisbee OIL and Production
Company, told the story of locating his
well west OF the city, and Mr.. Holmes,
geologist for the company, recounted
the reasons why oil would be found
here. His report will be found else
where in this issue. He is certain that
oil will be found within the next few
months and asked that the men who
were developing this section receive the
support of the community In their plo-
neering work. Ii Is needless to say
that these addresses were listened to
with close attention by those present.
