No Remedy Until New Wa-
ter System is in Opera-
tion—'-Mrs. Kay’s. Birth-
day Yesterday.
The water supply on Highland ave.
nue has been greatly effected dur-
ing the past few days by the in-
creased usagc of water here. due to
the hot weather. Residents of the
hill sections have reported that they
have been left with little or no
water. and have registered a com-
plaint with the Second district water
_commissioncrs.
Commissioner D. W. Harford said
this morning that similar trouble has
occurred during the pest few years.
and can promise no relief until the
new system which is now being in.
stalled, is completed. The installa-
tion of larger pipes, he says, will as-
sure the hill sections of full pressure
at all times. The volume of water
will also be increased by the new
retaining reservoir which is progres-
sing rapidly at Stevens Hill. It is ex-
pected that the new system will be
completed within a few months.
He urged local citizens to be more
sparing of their water consumption,
and said that if a great waste con-
tinues. some measures may have to
be taken to curb the use of water.
In the past when the hill sectious
suffered too greatly from the lack
of water. a ban was placed on gar-
den hose and it her excess water
equipment. Mr. arford intimated
that similar action will be taken if
the condition becomes too acute.

This warning has now been ut—
