One hundred and eleven Kansas cities and towns told their troubles to University of Kansas sanitary engineers last year. And the University experts visited these municipal patients, inspected their water and sewage disposal plants, and made recommendations and gave advice on how costs could be thousand of dollars had it come from a private source. 111 Towns in Past Yea Have Asked University for Solution Let a town in Kansas desire to erect a new water works. Immediately a call goes out to the University for aid. The professors go over the plans and output out the best methods of creating the plant and approve the plans. But the University help does not stop with the completion of the system. Each year the engineers work on a new system and are judged by analysis if the water is unpolluted. Six cities last year requested assistance in checking typhoid epidemics. One of the engineers made a sanitary survey of each district to find out the source of the disease, and precautionary measures were immediately taken by the municipal authorities on the advice of the expert. PARKER The legislature of 1907 and 1909 gave the board of health control over all public water supplies and sewerage systems, charging this board with the preservation of the purity of the waters for the protection of public health. It is in cooperation with the Board of Health that much of the assistance to the municipalities is given. Two members of the faculty at the School of Law of the Board are the Board's department of water and sewage which has direct charge of the work, while all chemical and bacteriological analyses and tests necessary are made at the University laboratories. "The Tailor" 847 Mass. Grandville R. Jones, professor of sanitary engineering and C. A. Haskins, assistant professor of civil engineering, direct this city trouble bureau. Before coming to Kansas, Professor Jones, who this year succeeded in drafting by Michigan, had charge of the water purification plant in Washington, D.C., one of the largest systems of its kind in the country.
