What to Do When the Family Shouts,
"We Want to Go on a Picnic!"
MANY CENTURIES
Romans, Saxons, Normans
Have Sought Steaming
Waters of English Spot-
Many Still Find Relief
WASHINGTON. D. O, (8pclal)
Bath, Eng., bom of ths Bath bun
and medicinal springs used since prs
Roman days, Is also ths plsc whro
ebsrmlng Smlly Lunn first baked th
famous sweetened tea cakes that bear
her name. Reopening of her oglnl
nal bow-windowed shop In LllUput
Alley reawakens Interest In this
quaint city, once the most fashion
able watering place In England.
"Situated on the Avon, about 19
miles soutb of Bristol, Bath's gray
stone houses climb In parallel ter
races up the encircling green bills.
Famous ss the town where England's
18th century life and culture came
Into flower, Batb la noted also be
csuse It contains more Roman ruins
tban any other English city," says
a bulletin from ths Washington, D.
O., headquarters of the National Geo
graphic Society. "Roman relics un
earthed during recent excavations,
although extensive, form only a mea
ger part of the original Roman
buildings which underlie practically
the entire foundations of Bath.
Romans Made It Resort
"Bath's turbulent history began
about 44 A. D. Roman legions storm
ing westward through the Avon val
ley found Britons bathing In the me
dicinal Springs of Sul Rededlcatlng
tbe springs to Minerva, Romans sur
rounded them with elaborate mosaic
baths, temples and villas. Here
swarmed gouty magistrates and
wounded warriors to recuperate.
"Ruined by the Saxons, again by
tbe Romans, Bath became a desolate
elty, Its hot springs flooding broken
corridors. When Queen Elizabeth vis
ited the city she found it unsanitary,
Its Inhabitant disorderly. In spite
ox dirt and discomfort, however,
Bath's healing springs drew a steady
Influx of visitors. The batha pre
aented a curious sight when motley
mobs of loose-robed men and women
wading up to their necks In the
teaming water.
"Made fashionable finally by the
visit of Queen Anne, Bath became
England's most popular spa. Invalid
nobility, nouveaux riches, doctors,
deml-mondes and gamblers flocked to
tbe resort. Most famous among the
Utter was the dandy, Beau Nash,
whose dazzling arrival marked the be
ginning of refinement and greatest
prosperity. Until then, although
kings sometimes held their courts
there, Bath was still a maze of equal.
Id bouses crowded together on sordid
where pedestrians were attacked by
footpads and taunted by owners of
Bath chairs. Women were frequently
Insulted, and men danced In muddy
boots, wesrlng swords, which they
drew at the slightest provocation.
Beau Nash, Genial Despot
"Beau Nash, upon being made mas
ter of ceremonies at Bath, made rules
forbidding dueling and wearing of
sword while dancing. He had the
mean streets paved end lighted, a
handsome assembly room built for
gemlng, and engaged a band for
dancing. Blazing In gold lace, over
shadowed by an Immense white beav
er bat (which be selected reputedly
because no one could steal It), Beau
Nash was a picturesque figure. Un
der his genial despotism, frlvoloue
life at Bath proceeded gaily with
many quaint customs. New arrivals
at Bath were heralded by fiddling
waits and ringing ohurch bells. At
tendance at the gaming tables wse
preceded each evening by participa
tion In the service at the Abbey
church.
"Bath becoming cramped, the ar
chitects, Senior and Junior, rebuilt
It In terraces, crescents and squares
on the surrounding hills. Two thor
oughfares which particularly pleased
18th century classic worshippers are
the great curved streets called the
'circuses.' whose crescent rows of
lonlc-plllared houses front vset lswns
and tree-filled parks.
"Many architects consider Bath the
best sltusted and most nobly built
English city.- calling It th 'Florence

"After Bath's heydey ss a fashion
resort passed, It still drew artists and
writers, as Greenwich Village does
today, to describe Its unique life.
Most 18th century novels oontaln ref
erences to It. Frequenters of Bath
were Dickens, Scott, Goldsmith, Wads-
worth. Sheridan, Fielding, ord Nel

snd James Boawell. It wss In Bath

Washington, died. Bath Inspired

"Bath today resembles an ancient
grand dame,' dreaming over past
balls; somewhat faded, but still keep
ing up appearances. Though no
longer England's most fashionable re
sort, carriages bearing crests still
drive through the streets of Bsth to
discharge well dressed people st ex
pensive shops. But chairs, like huge
perambulators, roll leisurely through
lovely gsrdens and pause at the
ubiquitous book stall.
"Sheltered from the prevailing
westerlies by encircling hills. Bsth is
unusually healthy and ha a very low
death rate. Invalids find the mild
winter climate of contral Bnth con
genial, while those who prefer more
oracing climate find the air on the
surrounding breezy heights peculiarly
iresn ana sweet.
"Many people are still attracted to
Bsth, as have visitors for over 2.000
yeers. by Its medlclnsl waters. Its
three hot springs yield half a million
gallons dally. The healing property
of the waters, odorless snd not un
pleasant In taste. Is ascribed to in
