scourcc of danger to the health of the
children and teachers. I am informed
that the basins, which were formerly
without traps have recently been trap.
pod by advice of the State Board of
Health, but the method of trapping
adopted is unsafe. Each bosiu has a
common S trap of lead attached to the
waste pipe under the fixture, but this
trap has no vent pipe. nor is the drain
ipe ventilated by a pipe run through
the building up to and above the roof.
Consequently the traps ere now llnble to

ble io‘absnrb sewer air. for the traps
form at present the dead ends of the
drain and there is danger that sewer air
thus absorbed may be given all at the
house side of the trap. that is, into the
room. The joints between the lead waste
pipe and the tcrra cottn drains are made
with cement, an unsafe method of com
ucction and there seems to have Ilt‘t'n
much lcnkage about these pipe” It is
my opinion that the‘ large caithtn drains

and be replaced by small iron waste
piprs laid with good fall.
Finally. I desire to call your attention
to :1 serious matter. namely to the condi-
tion of the ground under the basement
floor. It appears to be decidedly (lamp

The flushing of both water closets and
urinals should be ample and thorough.
The best arrangement is to divide the
fixtures into groups of three or (our, and
to flush each group from an automatic
flushing tank discharging at regular in-
tervals. The tank should beerranged to
go nit ordinarily about. every 15 or 20
minutes, but during school recess the
janitor should turn the supply on full,
so that the tank will fill every 11} to 2
minute-3. It is easy to accomplish this
by rm ans of a special valve con~truction
in the line of the main service pipe. An
alternative for water claw“ is to
have over each hopper a tank operated
