The first big step in the filling of one of the greatest.needs at Hains point was taken yesterday when the concrete for the foundation of the new shelter and comfort house was poured, under the direction of Lieut. Col. Sherrill, In charge of the public bulldings and grounds. Because of the nature of the ground and the tendency of it to settle, it was decided to pour the entire base in one day that it might harden In one slab. Four concrete mixers and 2 large gang of workmen were as- sembled. The base is of reinforced concrete thirteen inches thick and containing altogether 130 yards of concrete, The weight and size of the slab guarantee that if there be any sinking, the entire house without any cracking of is estimated that the settling will total about six inches before it finally ceases. 97 Feet Long. The house will have an overall longth of ninety-seven feet and a width of 22 feet. It will consist of a main room or lounge forty-three feet long. flanked by two wings about twenty-six feet by twenty-two feet.

It is belleved that this new bullding will meet the re- quirements of picnickers and others visiting the point. Telephones also will be provided. Its construction is such that boats coming up the river will see instead of the present unsightly bullding. a dignified and neat-appearing struc- ture. , In ‘addition to the mew house, a macadam road as wide as the present road is being constructed to the club- house on the Washington channel side. “The cherry trees all the way around the drive have been moved back in preparation for the widening of the present roadway to double its present Width. Funds for the road bullding have mot been provided as vet, but they will be sought. With this plan in mind, officials thought it best to move the trees now, as each year would add to the difficulty of moving then Additional parking space will be provided, a need that will be felt more accutely this coming summer, for parking has been prohibited around the roadway at the extreme gnd of the point.
