The Swimming Baths

: . There should'.be. no necessity' to" remind - those interested- of ■ the meeting .of the ; Swimming Bath* Committee to he .held 'n I tiro BoroiHrh Council.Chambers at -7.3othis • evening. It .i;'? expected' that a report will ■ be submitted- showing- a sum of between • £lO3 and-£1E0; collected, to date, slid w.e ■ understand'it. is the intention of the Com- : mittee to use every endeavor to to increase ; this Sum within the i:ext month ot two ; to t-bst.amoant. required, in .iddition' to the : -Poroujr.il Council's-contribution. TheTc !?_ : little .reason.to doubt, that with a special' - effort on the-part of the. Committee, who, : we feel -sure, have, the sympathy andsnpliort of the public in this imoortant project, there will .not- be much difficulty in so increasing the "amount in hard as.to ensure the buildimr of the baths, during the present year. We believe that unl?£s such definite steps'are taken, much of the symfiafchy and support accorded the undertaking --will be withdrawn. All interested are -sjreatly indebted, to many influential sympathisers, and to the young rnen;,<>f the town- it is due to see thatthey show;their appTeciation.of such practicalysympaihy; as has been extended tojthe'm, by; wasting .in j every way to- bring to. a successful issue an [undertaking which will, prove to them such a • srreat boon, and will, be a source 'of much" healthy -recreation and, pleasure.
