Swimming classes will be conducted at the early part of the season at hours to be posted at the swimming pools. During these hours, only those taking lessons will be permitted in the pools. These hours, however, will be scheduled so as to interfere very little, if any. with qualified swimmers. During the past seasons. hundreds of voungsters have been taught to swim at the Clinton and Lydia Pools. It is the sincere desire of Clinton and Lvdia Mills to teach every child in our communities to swim. The same is true for anv adults who cannot swim. Becoming an adept swimmer may at some time result in saving a life, perhaps vour own. Certainly no fisherman or woman, and we have many at both mills, should refuse this wonderful opportunity to learn to swim. Pools will he open through win mt wcck excepi wecinesday nights and Sunday. Daily pool hours are from 9 to 12. 2 to 6. and 7 to 9. Admission is 15 cents for children under 10 and 55 cents for adults. Season tickets mac be purchased for $4.00 for children and $7 00 foi adults from the life guards.
