material removed. the same as We re-
move our garbage, it would be pro.
baby the best possible arrangement.
Referring again to the water supply
/ wish to add that everyone may be
assured that our water supply Is 10
the most excellent condition and has
been since we Installed the HypOchl0r-
lite system Of treating the water, that
together with the arrangement with
the State Board of Health Laboratory
for checking it up has given US an
ideal supply all the time.
In the matter Of public health.
have always found the authorities of
the City of Ely to be most liberal, and
always willing and prompt to do any
thing or assist in any way financially
or otherwise to improve public health
conditions. In matter of sanitation
1t has been my observation that the
city of Ely is far ahead Of most cities,
especially some of the larger cities,
who even yet have not complete
garbage collection system. But there
are many things that need improve
ment, and only by the continued lib
eral attitude of the Authorities and a
friendly and helpful interest on the
part of the people can these improve
ments Ia sanitation be brought about.
On behalf of the Board Of Health,
I wish TO say that we will be glad to
talk with anyone at any time on d
question of public health, and to do
any thing at any time that we can for
the benefit of public health, which is
the most valuable asset of the people.
Most Resp. Yours,
OWEN w. PARKER.
