After much discussion the plan for
a new sewage system has been passed
by the town council. While this will
undoubtedly mean increased expense to
the taxpayers, it was not possible to
continue with the present system OF
sewage disposal without counting an
epidemic OF some sort that would per-
! haps take its toll in suffering and
death. The sewers backed up and over
flowed into the Easements OF homes
every time there was n heavy rain fall
and this would have meant the spread
! of contagious disease in time so it is Il
good thing that the council passed the
plans for Il new system.
