Vacation Periods Danger. Ous to Indifferent Per-
 sons Bulletin Reads

While the vacation season to most Connecticut residents holds visions of joyous recreation and rest, 1t may reslut detrimentally to the health of the vacationist if he or she should encounter Q contarl- mated water supply. the water Sup- ply public utilities of the state said today in issuing their annual warn- ing to Connecticut citizens to make certain that the water supply IS pure ct whatever spot they select for their relaxation and recreation.
 Many people spending their vaca- tionS in places not served by public water systems may neglect this iEn- portant health feature, 1t was said, due to the fact that they are so accustomed to using pure water from public systems they take the purity of ell water as Q matter of course.
 systems Protected
 The public water supply systems in Connecticut ere protected against pollution by disease carry. ing germs by fortress of safe- guards which makes contamination impossible unless all Qualifications should collapse at once. Protection begins miles from the reservoirs from which the supply is drawn, on the outer boundari' of the water. sheds, which are periodically in- Spected by utility officials, and by state and local health au'' orities to make sure that no source of pol- lution may develop. Tributary streams of the reservoirs are pro. tected. No trespassing Is permitted on the lands immediately surround ing the reservoirs. The water Is checked periodically by bactericlog- teal and chemical analyses, and chemical treatment is administered If diseesa carrying organisms are discovered. Tn nearly all cases, the water as final safeguard is either filtered or chlorinated or both be- fore being released through the mains for public consumption. Even If all other methods failed, chlor- nation would spell death to all dangerous bacteria. Warning to Motorists
 The water suppliesatvarious vaca. ton points, including some resorts, camps, overnight places along the highways and others, stand in di- rect contrast. The drinking water supply may come from unprotected surface water subject to drainage from sources, of pollution. 1t may come from wells or springs, likewise subject to improper drainage and frequently not protected by covers against dust and dirt. This is par. ticularly true of roadside water sup- plies of which there are not more than Q dozen or two saie ones in the state. Motorists should refrain from drinking from roadside wells and springs unless they are posted as safe by the state department Of health. For campers and picknickers, the water companies point out, the safest method of protection is to boil all water before drinking un- less 1t can be definitely ascertained that the supply from which 1t Is taken Is well protected and free from contamination. The warning of the water utilities Is: Don't take chances on your health just because you are in the habit of taking pure water ct home aS Q matter of course. tMft

.WPA WORK TO
 END HERE SOON
Next Tuesday Is Last Day ; Lack of Funds Ends
 Projects
BEACON FALLS | Correspondent: Wm. J. Baxter Phone Naugatuck 35-2.

After next Tuesday there, will no longer be any works progress ad- ministration work here, First Select man Christian Heiss has been in- formed by New Haven WPA ofiicials. This news comes with startling sud- denness. It had been known that WPA work was being limited but few local residents thought 1t would be cut out entirely.
 The reason given here Is lack of funds to undertake projects. This will mean that the i6 who have been employed by WPA lately will be minus a job after Tuesday.
 It will probably mean an addi- tional burden to the town. MT. Heiss was informed that reduction of WPA personnel is being made in Seymour, Naugatuck and other towns in the state. about 1000 em- ployes in the state will be dropped.
 This definitely cancels hopes of erection of 6 new Town Hall by WPA and repairs to state police barracks here.
