NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
NEW BATH HOUSES 
After Several Years’ Agitation Ma 
ing Facilities. Two Houses to 
with Pavilion B 
The particular item of business 
at the adjourned Town meeting in 
Manchester, Monday evening was 
that pertaining to new bathing 
facilities at Singing beach. For 
years there has been agitation for 
a new bath house and pavilion. 
Some wanted a large building, 
others wanted things to go along as 
they have been in the past. The 
committee finally presented plans 
for two buildings, each 40 feet by 
14 feet, with a pavilion of the same 
dimensions between these. Hach 
building is to have 16 rooms. The 
plan was accepted Monday night 
and the work will be started fat 
onee. The buildings will be placed 
at the right of the entrance to the 
beach. 
Moderator Allen ealled the meet- 
ing to order at 7.48, there being 
about 100 voters present. He an- 
nounced that he would add to the 
Fourth of July celebration commit- 
tee Willard Rust, Herman C. Swett 
and Harry Purington. 
Committee on Sewerage. Frank 
P. Knight moved the report of com- 
mittee be laid on table pending the 
result of their investigations and 
pending further report at some fu- 
ture time. Voted. 
E. 8S. Knight moved report of the 
treasurer be accepted. The auditor’s 
report and the report of the finance 
committee were also accepted. 
W. C. Rust asked about uncol- 
lected taxes and what there was to 
the report that the attorney-general 
had reported Manchester as one of 
the towns having uncollected taxes 
and that suit would be brought 
against its treasurer. 
Chairman E. 8S. Knight said tha 
the tax commissioner had asked for 
the name of the bondsmen previous 
to 1909. Treasurer Stanley said 
that the tax commissioner had 
asked how much was due the town 
for years back of 1909 and had 
notified him (the treasurer) that if 
the taxes were not collected within 
specified time suit would be insti- 
gated. Some taxes are impossible 
to collect, said Mr. Stanley, and the 
commissioner would not press such 
cases as where the collector had 
done his best to collect or have 
abated. 
Bath house committee report. J. 
S. Reed said the committee had 
brought in plans prepared by 
Hollis L. Roberts and same could be 
seen in the front of the hall. He

read a report recommending: 1, the 
adoption of plans drawn by Hollis 
L. Roberts, with two houses each 
having 16 rooms, and with a pavil- 
ion in the center; 2, the adoption of 
one of two locations; 3, that the 
park commissioners have — such 
buildings removed as they deem 
necessary, at the expense of the 
town; 4, that $4,000 be appropriated 
for the carrying out of the plan. 
C. W. Taintor moved the adop- 
tion of the plan of houses. He said 
the pavilion was to be the same size 
as the two houses (40 feet by 14 
feet), and that at some future time 
the pavilion could be changed at 
small expense into another house. 
Voted. 54 yes; 0, no. 
P. H. Boyle moved the buildings 
be placed at right hand side of en- 
trance to beach. The alternative 
plan called for one house to be on 
one side of beach entrance, the 
other on other side and the pavilion 
im the center. G. 8. Sinnicks fav- 
ord this latter plan. So did W. C. 
Rust. Albert Cunningham opposed 
it. C. L. Crafts thought it would 
spoil the approach to the beach. C. 
GC. Dodge thought the same. It was 
finally voted to place the buildings 
on the right hand side of the en- 
trance. Yes, 49, No, 17. 
It was voted the park commis- 
sioners have such buildings as are 
necessary moved at the expense of 
the town. Yes, 41; No, 0. 
By a unanimous vote $4,000 was 
appropriated for new bath house. 
The report of the bath house com- 
mittee as a whole was then adopted. 
It was voted that the improve- 
ments to the building at Tuck’s 
Point picnic grounds be earried out 
under the direction of the com- 
mittee: W. C. Rust, A. M. Killam, 
P. H. Boyle, D. TT. Beaton and 
Thomas Baker. 
Chairman E. S. Knight of the 
selectmen said that $225,721.16 had 
been appropriated up to this ses- 
sion. He said the total appropria- 
tions last year were $219,365.96. 
Last year $130,000 were raised by 
taxation. This year the town will 
lose about $7,000 in bank and cor- 
poration taxes, which will make it 
necessary to raise by taxation about 
$137,000. He moved this latter 
amount be raised by taxation. 
Voted. 
The meeting dissolved at 8.25, 
$25.00 being voted for the moder- 
ator’s services just before dissolv- 
ing,
