Heater for Water


people will be glad to know that
efforts are being made to get the
swimming pool back of the Parish
hall into readiness for use by the
time school is out.
This work is under the manage
ment of Vicar J. S. Talbot who will
be in charge of the pool during the
summer months, except when he is
compelled to be out of town, when
he will make other arrangements
for its management.
Among the preparatory work be-
ing undertaken is the construction
Of a railing around the tank, ac-
comodations for spectators and the
Improvement of dressing rooms,
and some kind of heating plant.
Vicar Talbot is making his main
object in his preparations the safety
of the smaller children.
He states that as a means of
securing a fund for beginning op-
erations at the pool, tickets will be
sold to the public. Over six dol
lars worth of swims will be sold to
grown-ups for five dollars and
twelve swims to youngsters for one
dollar. All children are to be
charged a small fee this year in Or
der to regulate the expense and to
curtail the undue privileges of a
few.
1t is hoped that the pool will be
one Of the most popular places in
town this summer and every effort
will be made to put it on the high
est standard possible.

The immediate Nevada question is,
What about Anne Martin? Mabel
left her in London three weeks ago.
They had a perfectly wonderful
time during their Europeon trip;
and it is not probable that Miss
Martin will be in Nevada politics
this year; anyway Miss Vernon will
not be; after a short rest at her
home at Wilmington, Delaware, she
is going on the Swarthmore Chau-
tauqua circuit. Some kind of politi-
cal pronouncement from Miss Mar
tin may be expected in Nevada dur
ing the coming month; probably a
statement that she is not candi-
date for office. Miss Vernon en-
Enthusiastically declares that despite
the glories of European travel, moth
ing in the world could give her
greater pleasure than being lost
again on the Nevada desert.
]. B. Gordon, publicity man for
the National Republican committee,
telephoned to Congressman Arentz'
office this morning that he will write
a special letter for Nevada news
papers, giving facts regarding the
apportionment of $166,O00 for Ne
vada just announced by the Bureau
Of Forestry. Considerable attention
for Nevada!
Congressman Sam Arentz is out
Of luck, along with a whole lot of
other members of this Congress who
would like to build political fences,
because there seems to be no pros
pect of an adjournment. Few men,
bers of the House, it is true, are
asking for a nomination to the Sem
ate, and perhaps not all will be as
conscientious in their attention to
duty as is the Nevada man. Repub-
lican Floor Leader Mondell, how
ever, is in the same boat as the Ne
vada Representative.
Representative Arentz has an en-
gagement to deliver the commence
ment address, June l, at his alma
mater, the South Dakota School of
Mines, at Rapid City, SD. From
there he intends making a flying
visit to Nevada, hoping to be pres
ent at the state convention, but be-
ing subject to recall to Washington.
He is placing his political fortunes
in the hands Of his friends, SO far
as the convention goes. House lead
ers say that three-day adjournments,
waiting on the Senate, will begin
about June /. Mr.. Arentz is hop
ing he will not be recalled until he
