The popularity of Venetian blinds

do not keep the sun from turning the
window panes into heaters. If your

outside shutters or awnings, then, if

amount on awnings (of very next
importance to slip covers) for the
three living room windows. That is.

possible feels, cool when the city slz-

SEWAGE DISPOSAL
 A HEALTH PILLAR
Safe and Adequate Water Supplies Also Need Sup'
 port of Public

Safe and adequate water supplies, sanitary disposal of human wastes, and decent housing conditions are three pillars of community health and ali need public support, War ren J. Scott, director of the Bureau of Sanitary Engineering of the State Department of Health, de- clared today in the departments weekly broadcast. In the provision of these pillars of public health, Connecticut has progressed rapidly but public interest and support IS essential to continue that progress
 Mir. Scott described conditions and the high typhoid fever death rate that existed 50 and 70 years ago be. cause of polluted water supplies, and stated that Connecticut has been fortunate during the past 26 years in experiencing freedom from water-borne outbreaks of diseases. Connecticut has a natural advant- age of abundant rain and It's drink ing water supplies are derived from relatively clean surface areas and uncontarninated ground supplies. By regular inspections by state and lo- cal authorities, 1t is made certain that sewage disposal ifs kept at q safe distance from water supply streams and reservoirs, and treat- ment of water by filtration and do- sages of chlorine safeguard against chance contamination. In addition. awter supplies arc regularly analy- cd to detect objectionable bacteria, and plans arc constantly progress sing to enlarge the supply systems to keep pace with community growth and to forestall depletion during dry seasons.
 Water carriage sewerage systems have developed means of ready dis posai of human wastes MT. Scott said, but while these systems have taken disease producing materials away from the home they have been and are being discharged in trefn- endous volumes at single points and emptied into streams and tidal wa terS. The result has been pollution of bathing waters and shellfish grounds, and thereby the creation of nuisance conditions with the economic losses brought about by the ruin of natural resources. But the tide of public opinion is begin- ming to support installation oj plants for treatment of sewage be- fore its discharge into streams and tidal waters, as is evidenced by the many such plants built in recent years and those now being con- structed.

All this is said to be done with

throughout, the proposed liner would
