125th Anniversary Supplement of The Canadian Statesman, Octobpr 3, 1979 Outhouse Is Goiie NeedTown Bylaw The days of the Pump and the outside toilet in town have long since assedoverthe hill into Modemn society has become used to push- button living and its accom panying com- forts. Indoor plumbing is now a- necessity and what - eople want, people wil1 have. With this thought in mind, Town Council might well investigate the advisability of establishing a plumbing by-law for Bowman- ville. Such a by-law would protect the very people who chose to h ave their affairs handled by the respon- sible Counceillors they elected by ballot last December. While Bowmanville plumberc. can usually be relied upon to supply good material and guarantee satisfactory work, there are outside plumbers 'who, when they do a job locaàlly, do not have the interest of the town at heart. Consider Local, Plutnbers Perhaps some people in town prefer to have their plumbing needs catered to by outside plumbing concerns with whom they have had previous dealing. There is no reason why they shouldn't continue to patronize these plumb- ers,1 but it would appear that the interests of Bowmanville plumbers should corne in for a littie consideration. Many cases have cropped up where out- town-plumbers have done a job in a Bowman- ville home. Local g lumbers have later een called in to right some wrong, or in some cases, have had to do a considerable part of the work over again. Outside plumbers are interested in getting the job done as quickly as possible, picking up your cheque, and leav- ing town in time to tackle another job before quitting time. On the other hand, local plumbers know they must do a good job the first time because they live in Bowmanville and their reputation is at stake. Therefore, they value satisfied custom- ers and a good reputa- tion.
