Optometrist. Batbhiouses for Wateh Hill ors of the civil war, and it is there- organizations will not be disturbed. It is understood that the endow- te for the pur- | ment fund established by Mr. and Mrs. Stephen Wilcox is ample to provide for another building on property now un- is under advisement. The art room, |the gymnasium, the hr:e mineral: exhibit and museum of tions, could be housed in the ne: building, while the basement and first floor of the present structure could be devoted -to library purposes and woule e ample, perhaps, for all time. The bathing beach and” bath.houses at Watch Hill, owned and managed for many years by Danlel Larkin, pat- Tonized largely by the regular cotta- gers and transient visitors, have been %0 conducted as to meet all demands ©of increasing patronage and have nat- urally been a source of profit to the management. The Larkins have prac- tically enjoyed & monopoly of the bathing business at 'Watch Hill and have been fair in the treatment of patrons. Now it is said that owners of other beach property on the Hill, located on the peninsula that makes ofit to the government reservation, have decided to share profits with the Larkins, or, rather, attempt to divide the business, It is said that one hundred new bath houses are to be erected for the pur- pose of rental for the seasom to pri- vate individuals, with the intention of making the new bathing beach as ex- clusive as possible. The old estab- lished bathing beach cannot be im- proved upon as to location and while there is no defined line between the public and private privileges on the beach, the private and public -bath houses are separated by quite a dis- tance and the cottagers-have never complained of the conditions.

Utter of Wasterly, being a member of the mi- nority, and a new member at that, will-not get a chalrmanship but will be assigned to membership on some committee, He will receive $1,500 a year for clerk hire, in addition to his $7,500, mileage and $125 for.station- ery account.
