DUTIESARETOLD
STATE PLUMBING INSPECTOR
ANNOUNCES POLICY OF HIS
OFFICE IN REGARD TO SEWER
CONNECTIONS AND OLD AR
VADA PLUMBING.

Writing to the city clerk in response
to an inquiry by the board of trus-
tees, John j. Connor, chief inspector
of plumbing for the state board of
health, goes on record with the policy
which shall prevail in the matter of
Arvada plumbing and sewer connec-
tons.
The letter says:
Replying to your communication
of January % in regard to what in
spection will be required on plumb
ing jobs which have been installed
since June Is, 1917, will state that
it will not be necessary to have any
state inspection job which has been
installed in the town of Arvada since
June l5, 1917, providing that the
plumber who installed this job can
furnish state permit which was is.
sued to him at the time the installa,
tion was made.
inspections have been made on al
jobs so installed by this department
and the work has been passed. lr
the majority Of cases, however, il
will be necessary to have the waste
pipe from the sink disconnected from
the mail soil pipe stacks and an out
side grease trap installed, inasmucf
as the State Plumbing Code provide.
that grease traps must be installed
on all sinks in the sewer district.
Until such time as the sewerage
system was installed in Arvada, cess
pools were used for the disposal OF
the sewage, and in the majority OF
cases no grease trap was installed OF
these jobs. 1t would be well, howev
er, not to issue any permits to con
meet to the sewer in cases above men
toned unless the owner or plumb
er can provide state permit. II
the event that same has been lost
you can call this department on tn,
phone and we can look up any partic
ular job. inasmuch as we have per
manent record Of all permits issued
"Yours very truly,
JOHN J. CONNOR,
Estate Plumbing Inspector.

Missionary Rest
Home is Burned

The Missionary Rest Home at
Fruitdale was burned to the ground
early Monday, with loss said to be
near $4,000.
The home is maintained by the
Christian Alliance, and is as its name
implies rest haven for returned or
indisposed missionaries. Mr.. and
Mrs. J. W. Axtell have been in di-
rect charge of the home for the past
year or more and they with three
others were alone in the house. Two
of the three were missionaries, Miss
Smith and Mr.. Fuller and the former
had with her her blind mother.
No fire fighting apparatus is avail
able in that vicinity and though the
blaze was slow and sluggish when
discovered, could not be checked.
Residents in the neighborhood ar
rived shortly after the fire was dis
covered and saved most OF the prop
erty within the house, only a small
amount of effects on the second
floor being destroyed. Even the win
dows, doors, bathroom fixtures and
steam radiators were saved by eff
cient salvaging.
No insurance was carried and the
building will therefore be total loss.
Word is being awaited from the
head offices at New York TO deter
mine whether the rest home will be
rebuilt or not.
