THe Richardson bathing house | i going over strong this week, wit crowds of boys and girls. Somebody said that the water was still cold. One girl, who was at the bathing house yesterday, liked the water so well that she was in for over half an hour, Of course it is rather chilly when you first step in, but it's just like the old swimmin' hole after you got your "duck." The caretaker expects to have the raft afloat by the end of the week. The building will be open evenings, starting Thursday, thus giving the people a chance to go in swimming who are unable to do so In the morning or afternoon.
