was very busy for soma little time la
getting the brine out ot my eyes ao I
conld see. The third time I got my bead
under and my eyes full, it was caused by
coming in oollialon with an elderly lady
who evidently like myself was floatlag
with her eyes closed and letting the
waves carry her ashore. The water hap
pened to be pretty deep right there aid
I was pretty well salted both inside and
oat when I finally regained my equilibri
um and my breath.
However, I soon learned how to keep
my head out of water and greatly en
joyed it It is the ideal place for sea
bathing and in all that great sea there ie
nothing that "lives, moves, swims, erawls
or wiggles," no form of lite whatever.
During the aummer, the lake la visited
by hundreds each day and the lake la the
vicinity ot the bath-house seems fairly

furnishes amusement and pleasure, but
ban many medicinal qualities.
