FACTS VS.. THEORY.
When the recent ordinance regulating
the practice Of plumbing in this city was
passed by the council, it was thought
that it would regulate and correct many
abuses in this line of trade, especially 80
far as relating to the sewerage system.
When the new rules were put into OPP
GRAFTON 1t was found, however, that they
imposed in many cases unnecessary ex-
pense in putting in plumbing work and
in several instances were wholly i'm
practical. The trouble arose from the
fact that lawyers, not plumbers, drew
up the rules on doubtless an excellent
theorical basis, but which proved not to
be in it when it came to practical work.
Recognizing this fact the council has
decided to have q new and more practi-
cal ordinance framed, and have left the
matter to three OF our practical plumb
ers to arrange. 1t will probably come
up for action Monday.
