A sum not The board should not be interest to the at an early exceeding $10,000 as making experiments. The tion of the state is that this be spent by the city while a amount will be expended by the state. The sewage problem in New Britain is not common to other citie the sewage contains wastes from factories, which manufacture hardware and metal of various kinds. The volume of sewage in this city is great and the character unusual. The propos tion is explained in the following communication of City Engineer Wil liam H. Hall: To His Honor, the Mayor, and Mem- bers of the Common Council of the City of New Britain: Gentlemen: During the session the legislature in 1917 the governor was authorized to appoint an indus- proposi- amount trial wastes board to co-operate with the different cities in the state in reference to pollution of inland wa- ters. An appropriation of $25,000 w made to carry on the work. Tn tember, 1918, a communication received from the above board, stat- ing that they recognized the fact that the' city of New Britain is confronted with a very difficult problem to dis- pose of its wastes and they felt that the city should benefit by the expen- diture of some of the money appro- priated for a study of the industrial waste problem. A preliminary investigation by the engineers of the state board of health was made, samples of the sewage and effluent were taken over a period of thirty days and the analysis made. Automatic gaugings of the sewage at the site of the disposal works and diagrammatic sections of the filtering media in sufficient number of beds was made to give some idea of the extent and character of the clogging of the beds. This work was carried on and the above information ob- tained during the latter part of last ar. About vear, the this up was| the first of Februz matter was again by the state board and the advised that the industrial waste board had asked the legislature of 1919 for an appropriation of $50,000 to carry on the work already started. This city was asked at that time if it would co-operate with the above hoard by the legislature, the city to assume one-half the cost and a thor- ry; taken city ough study made and experimental plants of small units constructed at the present disposal plant and the best and most feasible method for dis- posing of our sewage and trade wastes determined. This matter was thor- oughly considered at that time by the board of public works and the mem- bers were of the opinion that the city should take advantage of the of- fer made by the state and it was voted to ask the board of finance and taxation for an appropriation of $10.- 000 as the approximate cost to the city to carry on these experiments. This amount was estimated by the state board of health and letter from John Black, chairman of the ate board of health, which accom- panies this report, explains what the expenditure of money appropriated by the city is for. The board of finance and approved the plan and was opinion the city should take tage of the offer, but saw no why the money could not be taken from the sewage construction fund, which is'a bond issue and where there is money available at the present time. The city has been called upon ™, to either accept or reject the offer of the state board of health. It has ceived its appropriation from the leg- islature and is ready to go ahead with the experiments in this city, provided the city is willing to co-operate and pay its share of the cost The board of public works mends that the necessary authority be given and the offer of the state board of health be accepted and that taxation of the advan- reason recom- the experimental work be started at the disposal plant at once and the cost to the city for its share of the work shall not exceed $10.000, he money to be taken from the sewer construction fund as needed Respectfully submitted, WILLIAM H..

The party started at 12 o'clock and such smiling faces and such thrilled boys and girls! One did not need the sun to shine, these happy children were beams enough. All the way down there were questions like this: *How fast are we going now?” “Thirty miles an hour?” “Gee! Let's be firs th‘%r % No! then we'll get there too 500" The children were given Mrs Kronholm's home-made doughnuts on the way down so there was no chance of hunger before they finally arrived. Finally, when they reached Mo- mauguin the children and their chap- erons (one for each car) ran to the shore and there for the fi t time they saw the salt water. These were some of the hundred guestions asked: “Where dees that water come from ?" “How far does it go?” “Is it real salty?” “Do people get drowned in that water? The children played on the sand, picking up shells, the bathers and hoped paddle too. Then they were invited to visit the picnjc grounds where the chaperons, and Mr. Swift gave them a delectable lunch of sandwiches, milk, ice cream and cake, apple pie and lemonade. Never were there such happy little faces as those that peeped above the long picnic tables. Rev. Mr. Kling- berg offered prayer and then how the boys and girls did eat, behaving bet- ter than most of our more fortunate youngsters. watching they might After the “feed” they went hack to the shore and, by the way, then the r fun started. The girl and little boys took off their shoes and stockings and went in the R 1. ocean. The older hoys were permit. ted to go in bathing and they being boys, will never forget their first saity bath. The children had rides on the merry-go-round, bought popcorn and candy and cracker-jack and romped up and down the sand. At five o'clock they started for home with a nice long ride in front them.
