type of tylo to prevent slippage
as the motorist who puts on chains
thinking it might rain. Anyway,
a new type of tile, sprinkled with
chipped "beef or aplmll" while
warm, which makes it Impregnable
to slippage has ben included on
buth ends of tho pool and around
the run-way.
Insulation Noteworthy.
Other very new features, if not
so novel, are the special insulation,
which has been placed on the ceil
ing, erection of fifteen tier bleach
ers at tho east end of tbe nata
torlum, and three diving boards.
The Insulation on the ceiling will
prevent the customary ueafening
ethos which abound in many in
door pools. The clcllng lights will
also be strengthened by larger
reflectors.
One of the three diving boards
will be located in the center of the
west end of the pool. Jt will be
ton leet high. On earh side there
will be one low board.
The pool, which will be com
pletely tiled, will be decorated
around the top by alternate green
nrt hlnrk hlocks each a fool
square. Side walls will be yellow

If all these aeml-exclusivt

enough for your turn out, n
announcement of special Induce
ment is in order. The pool will
be one of tbe best of its kind In
this section of the country, and

big tank Is 15 by 78 feit and 10
feet deep at the west and directly
