WORK ON THE SEWERS
To Be STARTED SOON
Septic Tanks are to be Built
Without Delay-Bonds
Validated by Court.

There is clear track ahead for the
sewer and light bonds.
The bonds were validated by Judge
Morris few days ago.
Under the law in Georgia when such
bonds are to be issued there is hear
ing to pass upon the legality and see
if there is any flaw The Judge of
the Superior Court hears the case just
as though the bonds were being at
tackled and if everything is all right he
puts his 0. K. on them In that way
confidence is given to investors and
they are protected against bonds of
doubtful legality. In the case of the
sewer and light bonds there was no
fight made. conflicting interests
might .4ave interposed objection but
did not do so and the bonds were vail
dated.
The bonds will be advertised and
sold to the highest bidder on July LIST.
Without waiting for the sale prepa-
ration for the construction of the tanks
for disposing of sewage will be
started. Marietta will promptly take
the necessary steps to prevent the pol
luton of the streams into which the
sewers empty, thus keeping faith with
those citizens of the county who with
draw their injunction suits when the
water works system was completed.
1t is probable that the entire issue
of the electric light bonds will not need
to be sold The coming of the Georgia
Power Company to Marietta may ena-
BILE the city to save very large part
Of that expenditure.

neglected the blood takes up the
poisons and brings on countless very
serious diseases appendicitis is di-
rectly caused by waste in the colon.

courtesies extended officers of the United

of work covered. He commended the

he was gratified that in cases brought to

not relieved of their obligations or al
lowed to lose sight of their responsible
ties.

Appeal for More Funds.

An appeal for more activity in the rais-
ing of funds was made by Mrs. Charles
Goldsmith. financial secretary. She de-
clared that while the organization had
been able to accomplish a deal Of good
with less than $aO0e- at its disposal last
year. much larger sum would be needed
for the prosecution Of relief measures
during the, ensuing twelve months.
Tribute to Honorary. President i. L.
Blout and President Baumgarten, as the
Bismarck and William of. the United
Hebrew Charities, was paid by Simon
Wolf. The attorney declared the perse-
cutions the Jews OF Russia and Houmania
have been subjected to this year would
result in a greatly increased number of
immigrants. and. he warned the society
to prepare to receive the quota that will
select Washington for their home; to be
ready to instiIl the necessity Tor, santa
ton and cleanliness into these pewcom-

The measure in which the objects of
the society have been attained was at

which latter branch he urged efforts for
higher degree of success.

in for warm commentator by Mr.. Baum
garten. He recommended drastic meas
ures and full publicity for wife deserters.
which class of men, he said. are respOn-
sible for SO large part OF the work of
organized charity.
Mr.. Baumgarten recalled that three
persons suffering with tuberculosis had
been sent to Denver at the expense of the
society during the past year. and that
there were fifteen cases on the pension
roll, not including those where milk alone
Is furnished.
THE Jewish Foster Home" continued
Mr.. Baumgarten, now is an established
fact and source of pride to us all. 1t
is an absolute necessity to the Jewish
community, and without this home these
charities would be confronted with a
most serious problem. the care Of de-
the case. and our thanks to the energetic
