THE SWIMMING BATHS.
(To the Editor.) Sir,—l am very pleased, to see in i last evening paper, a letter by A. C. I Purehas, in regard to the Swimming i Bath. I have been looking around the Town and admiring the beautiful spots but I am sorry to say that the Swimming Baths has been allowed to get into a disgraceful state. What has the Borough Council been doing t 0 allow the Baths to get into such a bad state. The first thing one notices when entering the Baths is a fine crop of blackberries, and if these are allowed t 0 spread, it will be a case of “Find the Bath.” Then again, how many young . people and school children can swim ; and save life, I can guarantee 99 per cent of t,lie school children attending the Hokitika schools would not know , what to do .if they saw a person in diifie.ulti'os in the rdater. As this Swimming Season is well advanced, and 1 perhaps the Borough Council .may be : able to put the Baths into proper order l f or next season.—l am etc., 1 VISITOR. > Hokitika 16th., February 1922.
