HOT WEATHER LURES
THOUSANDS TO SEEK
RELIEF IN SWIMMING

Many people of the city have been
and are taking advantage of the Haw-
kins swimming pool during the pres
ent hot spell, according to the mana
ger of the pool There is practically
no time during the day that a person
going out to the pool cannot find quite
large number of citizens taking a
dip.
The pool opens every morning at
o'clock and closes every night at
80. 1t is well equipped with electric
lights for the night swimmers.
The manager states that if he con-
tinues to keep the management of the
"old swimmin' hole" several changes
will be made and every effort will be
made to have improvements made that
the public desires.
Free Dips for Children
One of the features in vogue now is
big favorite with the boys and girls
of the city. Every Tuesday morning
all boys and girls under the age of
II years are given a free swim. The
children are required to furnish their
own bathing suits and towels.
Many of the children are taking ad-
vantage of the free swim and this
morning about so to rs of our future
expert swimmers were taking the free
dip. The period for the children is
from o'clock until 10 o'clock.
During the past three weeks the at
tendance in the pool has broken all
records in it's history. The average
of the pool has been about 800 swim
mers every day. During the last
week the number of swimmers has
been greater than in any one week
since Mr.. Parker has had the manage
ment of the pool
Install Showers
A popular improvement is being
made at the pool and will be ready
for operation within few days. A
shower bath is being installed in both
the women's and the mems locker
rooms
Two or more life savers are on the
job at all times. The life savers are
all qualified men.
The busiest time of the day is from
the hours of 4 o'clock in the evening
until closing time, the bathers taking
their dip after the hot sun. has gone
down. Many people who have never
been in the water before to any great
extent are daily attendants at the pool
in their efforts to keep cool.

ASKS $4,000 DAMAGE
FOR AUTO ACCIDENT

Charging that Arthur A Brown
operated an automobile in a careless
and negligent manner and at rate
of speed estimated at from so to 20
miles an hour, causing it to skid from
the roadway and upset, Harry Brown
asks for $4,000 damages for personal
injuries in suit filed in Wayne Cir
cult court Tuesday afternoon.

ceived numerous other cuts and
bruises which will incapacitate him

EATON LEADS MIAMI
VALLEY IN YIELDS OF
TOBACCO; CROPS POOR

A poor tobacco yield for the near
parts of the Miami valley is predict
ed for this year, with the single ex-
ception of the Eaton region, where
local rains have put tobacco plants
ahead of other neighborhoods.
Tobacco looks very nice around
Eaton and New Hope" said Harry
Fudge, tobacco buyer of Eaton, Tues
day. We had good rains after plant
ing, which brought the plants on in
good shape, and just yesterday, we
had another good rain which spread
over a large territory. The outlook
is for pretty good crop just in this
region, although ! do not know how
prospects are elsewhere"
Tobacco around Eldorado will not
make more than about a third of the
usual amount" said Frank Black
ford, Of that region.
Owing to the dry weather, much
acreage that might have been plant
ed to tabaccos was never put out, and
what was planted late in June or in
July dosent look very prosperous" I"
Mr.. Blackford adds. I'VE had a nice
ram AlOnUdy, out Is was ldl6 10 uSlp
except with the tobacco that had al
ready been put out. What plants are
out do not look as thrifty as they
should for this season of the year"
Smaller Acreage
The acreage is only one-third to
one-half of normal" said Frank Ga
zell, tobacco warehouseman of West
Alexandria and government crop re-
porter. Many farmers are tending
five and six acres to harvest tobacco
that should be grown on two acres.
They are trying to raise all that is
still standing because of the poor
stand this year. On account of the
dry weather here, it was impossible to
get all the tobacco set out and much
that was set died later"
A poor condition of the tobacco also
was reported by Mr.. Gazell. 81 have
estimated the yield Of the tobacco at
aboue 60 per cent" he said, "and that
is higher by 10 per cent than is allow
ed by farmers and other authorities
here. In addition to the cut in acre
age, there will be further cut due
to poor yield. This condition also
holds for Germantown which l visited
a week ago. We had a good rain
Monday, but we should have it two
weeks ago to get our tobacco out"
