WITH A RUSH.
That is the Way the City Water
is Going.
The Supply Must be Husbanded or
Trouble is Likely to
Occur.

1t is evident that people using city
water are allowing great deal of it to
ruin to waste rather than take the
chapces of getting up these cold morn
ingsI and find the supply pipes frozen or
bursted Since the extreme cold spell
set in noticeable increase in the con,
sumption of water is reported Mayor
Pau, in speaking of the subject this
afternoon said: cit is surprising and
almost alarming at the quantity of
water that is being used and wasted.
The pumping station is pumping water
twenty-three hours day out of twenty
four, and still the supply in the reser-
vOir is gradually going down In
other words the city station is unable
to pump as much water as is being
used. l wish you would say to con-
sumers that in case of fire we would be
thrown into most dangerous condition
if this daily consumption of water con-
tinues, and l hope that everybody will
economic as much as possible when it
comes to unnecessary wastefulness of
water. The supply is ample for all
legitimate purposes, but / am forced to
the belief that too many consumers are
allowing too much waste to occur to
prevent freezing"
The Mayors guess is no doubt cor
rect and now that public attention has
been called to the matter it is hoped
that economy will be practiced where
ever possible.
