SEWER WORK LIGHTING
Vandals Blamed For Trouble

last evening The board received a report from Mr H. F. Page, the chief engineer (operation) that a recent inspection of 13 contracts showed that in meet cases precautions were mostly satisfactory end in a few cases fairly so. On three works only were the precautions not satisfactory. One of these had not been improved sufficiently after the contractor's attention had been drawn to the need.
