Wool- hiser, village manager of Winnetka, was received by the Wilmette Village board at its meeting last Tuesday night relative to the overloaded condition of the intercepting sanitary sewer which serves the villages of Wilmette, Kenil- worth, Winnetka and Glencoe. In the letter Mr. Woolhiser pointed out that during a period of heavy rain- fall the sewer becomes over-loaded and backs up, flooding basements and re- sulting in much damage and incon- venience. He submitted the proposal made by the Winnetka Village coun- cil that the different villages appoint representatives to confer with the Sanitary District officials relative to obtaining the necessary enlargement of the sewer and thus bring about a permanent relief from unsatisfactory conditions. The matter was referred to the streets and alleys committee of the board for conference with Mr. Woolhiser and report. for our new Tourist Third Cabin than $200 round ip foes? e 12 greatest ips our Yo uhod Sod Wi Sai and niceties required profes. sional and educational people.

To commence the work intelligently, it was decided to employ a competent and experi- enced engineer, and a committee, con- sisting of William Edwards. of Glen- coe, Paul A. Hoffman of Wilmette, and Arthur Stringer of Evanston, was appointed to investigate and recom- mend the appointment of a man to make the proper surveys. It was decided also, that, in order to do the work more efficiently and economically, it would be better to es- tablish office and equipment head- quarters in the center of the district near the field of operations. Presi- dent Edwards appointed Paul A. Hoff- man of Wilmette, F. I. Streed of Kenilworth and H. C. Phillips of Win- netka a committee to investigate and locate a proposed site with recom- mendations to the board at the next meeting. President Edwards reported he had, at his own expense, sent Arthur Stringer, a member of the hoard, and formerly employed by the Gorgas Memorial institute as an engineer in mosquito abatement, to Memphis, Tenn., to interview Mr. 1a Prince of the U. S. Government board of health and a pioneer in the eradi- cation of malaria and mosquitoes in the south--in order to secure his coun- sel as to the proper methods to pursue in the North Shore district, and re- port back at the next meeting of the board. J. Lyell Clarke of Springfield, III, assistant sanitary engineer of the state department of public health, appeared at the meeting and offered the assist- ance of his department. Mr. Clarke stated that he had spent considerable time in the Ravinia district making a study, and found that the mosquitoes from the Skokie marsh were carried by the wind for distances of over 10 miles. A special meeting of the trustees of the North Shore Mosquito Abatement district will be held Thursday, Janu- ary 12, at 8 p. m., in the Wilmette Vil- lage hall. All meetings are open to the public and the trustees will be zlad to meet interested citizens at any time and secure their counsel and ad- vice, it is explained.

Miss Lam- son was graduated this June {from Bradford.
