AQUATIC DISPLAY.

Keen Racing at the Tepid Baths. Held under the auspices of the Lifesaving Guards of the Salvation Army, an aquatic display was held in the Tepid Baths on Saturday evening. There was a large attendance of the public and some keen racing was witnessed. This was the first display held by the Guards and Scouts of the Salvation Army and, judging by the keen swimming, it is to be hoped that this will be an annual event. At the conclusion of the races Ensign Inwood presented certificates to the successful competitors.
