BATHING BEACHES 



375 



Cities having lakes or beach frontage may not find it necessary to build 

 outdoor swimming pools. Minneapolis maintains a number of lake bathing 

 beaches, which are lighted for night use. The beaches are roped off at two 

 different depths. One rope is stretched at the three-foot depth and the 

 other at four and one-half or five feet. There is a small roped area especially 

 for children.
