 Waterville Sewer Program At last nights meeting of the Board of Commissioners of Public Fleming reported favorable pro- gress on the Waterville sewers now being installed. The present pro- ject calls for construction of sew CTS In White street, from Robert street to Cooke street; in Robert street, south, from White street: and in Bon Air avenue, from Cooke street to Columbia Boulevard.
 The short White street project Is complete and the sewer con. struction crew Is now in Robert street where unexpected ledge formation has been encountered. delaying somewhat the original schedule. This piece will soon be completed, however, and Bon Ar avenue will then be started.
 By the time Bon Air avenue Is completed 1t is expected that the Sewer Department will have been ordered to. proceed with Lone Oak avenue, from Cooke street to Co., lumbia Boulevard. Residents of the street, property owners who can no longer effectively dispose of their sewage by cesspools, due to the nonabsorbent nature of the soil, petitioned the board of alder men for a sewer on May End. The petition after having been favora- bly, passed upon by the sewer conn mittee of the Board of Works to which 1t had been referred by the Board of Aldermen, was returned to the latter board on May 3rd with request for permission to hold hearings on the construction of the sewer. The permission was granted at the May 9th meeting of the aldermen and reached the Works Board last night. It was ac- companied by a letter from Health Officer Godfrey who stated that he had made personal investiga- ton and recommended immediate installation of the sewer as a pub- lie health measure. The board voted to call in the property owners for public hearing on May 31st. Approximately two weeks must elapse following the hearing before final authority to construct can be obtained and this should make 1t possible for the sewer construction crew to pro- ceed from Bon Air avenue to Lone Oak avenue with little or no delay
 Sewers in this section of Water. vile are most necessary because or the hard-p soil and the presence .of number of springs, which make cesspoo1s and septic tanks Of little value for more than Q brief period.
