"No ‘drinking water‘ test is fair to river water. I do not think that anywhere from Duluth to the mouth of the St. Lawrence River is there water fit for drinkâ€" ing without treatment, although it is used for swimming purposes. I read that even the water of the McKenzie River, along whose shores there is little habitation, tests "D". j "I have never heard of any illâ€" ness which could be traced to the water of the Humber River. In fact I have in the past few years had mau-o(tyfioidwfiich»mld be traced to wells in use in the town. To my mind the water of the Humber River is safer for nhmm':qun than that of any beach in Toronto.
