Hot Springs.
It was our pleasure to join th (
editors in their trip to Hot Spring ?
after the E. V. E. A. at Rushvilk
June 3. Styled the Karlsbad ol
America and it is where the peo
pie of every land find amusemenl
and rest. Hot Springs is noted as
a health resort but more people gc
there for pleasure and recreatior
than for medical treatment. Two
of the finest plunge baths in the
world are found here. The watei
is 92 ° in the Mammoth and 9tt °
in the old plunge and is even tem
perature the year around. Mag
nificent scenery abounds. The
green hills covered here and there
with pine trees , and mountainous
peaks alternating with valleys and
canyons in the distance lend en
chantment to the office prisoners
who seek rest in sequestered shady
nooks or a plunge into the limpid
waters to drown care and smooth
wrinkles. Wind cave is only a
couple of hours drive from Hot
Springs and everyone who has not
been through it should go. Hotel
accommodations are ample at any
time and they take good care oi
their guests.
