There’s a natural incline Right down to the lake It wouldn’t need much design A few elbows are easy to make Dump the sewage into the lake You’d then achieve your aim Dilution is the word, I take, That lessens the evil of same. We have rain and we have storm Power fallure we also know The plant is designed to take care of the norm But the creek takes the overflow. If you must use the creek for conveyance Of sewerage into the Don creek Why leave it in abeyance Put in a pipe that don’t leak. Just before election polls When candidates would like a post In great big letters they publish their goals In papers that circularize the most. I went to a hearing the other day The speakers were learned and able But the Water Resources Commission, I say, Should have been on the opposite Side of the table They are a body, which by our side With power entrusted in it Could forever prevent and over-ride Proposals that some might submit. Containing designs of retention tanks Their dimensions and how they go The amount of money needed from banks But nothing of overflow. Did you ever smell an abattoir They deal mostly in blood But hospital sewerage, repetez apres m0! Beats this a mileâ€"but good. Hospital Cleanâ€"is a slogan we hear It must mean something, and so, Think of a slogan that’s nice to the ear With a theme “The Overflow”. There are rules that govern a stream on your land You must not divert the flow But there’s nothing in reports that I have on hand That bars an overflow It’s put in quick and small and neat And couched in a style to bemuse It contains the dessert, but none of the meat It speaks of a hearing, not refuse. Overflow is an insidigus word It’s never put on detail maps As a. matter of fact, it's never heard It’s a dirty word, perhaps. The paper contains a noticeâ€"nbf bold But legal, mind you, and hasty. The streams of Ontario were bright and clear Fit for fishes and man to drink Fishermen came from far and near To fish, converse and think. The years went by and people came They built their houses with plumbing Now the streams aren’t quite the same They’re dirty, with effulent running. As watch dogs to see, or so I'm told That no one pollutes the streams Are Resources Commissions and Authorities bold; But without teeth, it seems.

Sympathy A few weeks ago a little story appeared about Mrs. Annie Snider who celebrated her birth- day with a family dinner. Last Sunday, along with Mrs. Joe Ketfer and Mrs. Alf Bagg, I was very happy to visit Mrs. lSnider and see her “cookie castle” which is still intact (ren- sonably so). It had held her ibirthday gift of a lovely “grand- mother bracelet".
