He Understood that in the past a scheme had been under consideration for the ereetion of baths to be fed by a, gravitation scheme, tbe proposed site being near the .sports ground. This would be ideal, but if it were to be gone on with in tho future it would be necessary before the ereetion of tbe proposepl railway embankment to instal tho necessary piping. Mr Adeano said it had been found that about oue milu of piping woulcl be necessary, and this would just about uialio the cost of such a scheme prohibitjve. Mr Kingston said there jvould be difficulty in securing a titi© to riverbed land. Mr F.
