the headlines about other place with which we do not have close contact certainly the headlines carried in the late editions of poionou and deadly water in avion were to say the least greatly exaggerated and we ve heard other words fjaed to describe the star stones that were a ot stronger the situation might hae hctn a serious one wc re not contradicting the fact that the water in many taps was dirt and bad smelling for a few hours on saturday so far there is nothing to mc ii was poionous or deadl and at time of writing a week uter we have ct to hear of an illness dirtctly traceable

different from the unfeel ing publicity of the city press the offenders may te our neighbors or people we have rubbed elbows mith all our lives they are real human beings to their town paper while to
