J DEDICATE HUGE SEWAGE TREATMENT PLANT SOON Sanitary District Invites Officials of Neighboring States to Inspect Project With October 3 definitely designated as the date for starting operations, The Sanitary District of Chicago is putting the final touches on its mam- moth North Side artificial sewage treatment plant at Howard and Ked- zie avenues, preparatory to placing in active service this largest plant of its type in existence. Dedication of the huge project, the first and fore-runner of others of similar magnitude in The Sanitary Dis- trict's program, will be made the oc- casion for a fitting celebration, at which thousands of spectators are ex- pected to be present. Invite Health Experts Not only guests living within the boundaries of the district will be pres- ent, but invitations are to be sent to the officials of neighboring states, as well as to leading sanitary engineers and health experts throughout the country. During the course of its con- struction, the plant already has at- tracted international interest, and has been inspected by eminent scientists from a number of foreign nations. Costing $31,000,000 with its vast sys- tem of large-size intercepting sewers, honeycombing twenty-one miles of the area to be served by the plant, this project also is the first of three similar units involved in the mandatory five year program required by provisions of the federal permit under which the District is authorized to flow water from Lake Michigan. Completion of the plant has been achieved under the administration of President : Crowe and Trustee James M. Whalen, chairman of the district's committee on engineering. Affects Entire North Shore This project will handle the sewage of the entire territory from Fullterton avenue north to the Cook-Lake county line, now supporting a population bors dering upon one million persons. The plant covers 70 acres of a 100 acre site fronting upon McCormick road. The additional acreage has been provided to permit future expansion when increasing population demands amplified facilities. Tests are now un- der way to gauge the machinery and other operating equipment to insure full efficiency when the big plant be- gins its continuous task of sewage purification. The capacity of the North Side works is 400,000,000 gallons of sewage daily, treated in three batteries each containing twelve activated sludge tanks 420 feet long. The activated sludge principle of treatment will be applied here, a bacteriological process differing from the Imhoff tank method employed in other Sanitary District plants now under operation, in that compressed air is used to oxidize the sewage in the tanks and to keep it agitated. RETURN FROM VISIT Miss Cynthia and Miss Suzanne Kohlsaat, daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Edward C. Kohlsaat of 777 Bryant avenue, and their brother, Edward, re- turned last week from a trip to Louis- ville, Ky.

Gallagher and daughter, Alice, of Zamboango, Philippine Islands, are the guests of Mrs. S. F. McKenney of 752 Foxdale avenue. Mrs| McKenney, Mr. Gallagher and Miss Gallagher left last Thursday for a two weeks' trip to New York and other eastern states. \
