Therefore, to the man who is build- ing this spring this suggestion is oeered.. Deal with I responsible con- tractor so that first cost will be last cost-in your plumbing system. The reputable plumbing contractor will use pipes, valves, and ttttings. of Hood quality for his “roughing in" materials. He will not try to live money and thus come out even on a low bid by substituting inferior ml- terialx where they will not be seen. Good Work-en Know Workman employed by good con- trtgctors have been taught the mechan- icul installation of I plumbing sys- tem that will nut be noisy in open- tion. For instance, the soil pipe which runs from the basement up to the roof of the house can be made sound-proof with it one-inch thick- no.” of hair felt. The use of felt has mother advan- tage in that it will nheorb condensa- tion and thus prevent unsightly spots on the inside Walls of the house. For this reason, it is advisable to V, T. McMAHON. R.

He will so install his pipes that there will be perfect circulation of hot water. Furthermore, a good master plumber will insulate the hot water pipes in the walls and under the floors, thus saving approximately 25 per cent in tuel in a circulating sys- tem. Usually specifications call for insulatidn of pipes in the basement only. Proper Method! The good contractor will see to it that his workmen ream all cuts of pipes-Jo remove burs before these pipes are threaded. Good contrac- tors will also see to it that all pipes are laid to such a grade that the water will drain out cf them when the plugs are opened. This is essen- tial in case the house is to stand un- ueeupied. An adequate number of clvanuuts in waste pipes will always he installed by dependable workmen. Most of these points which are so essential to the efficient and trouble- free operation of a plumbing system are not mentioned in speeifieations but must be left to the judgment of the contractor. _ The historic Higley site court fight moved on' a "tail's pace last week in Waukegan, when the contesting at- torneys finished their arguments on n motion by Corporation Counccl Ar- thur Buikley to throw out a second bill against the'new city hull, and Judge Edward Shurtletr. took the matter under udvisement. The second bill which Bulkley contested, demands that the city he made to return the mom-y already paid to the iligieys for the city building.
