e 0 aBM iA Editor, _ Reporter.â€"The â€" polluted condition of the Grand river has exâ€" cited the interest and indignation of «l1 residents of the Grand River Valâ€" ley during thre past few months, due to the large number of dead fish eviâ€" dent, and the pungent odors which arise, more so on some days than on others. We, residents of the valâ€" ley have, in the Grand River a ecenic asset that should be looked after, offering as it does not only its naâ€" tural beauty (much impaired by cleaning) ‘but opportunities _ for wholesome outdoor sports. It is regrettable that a river, called the Grand, at one time was a fresh runâ€" ring stream, but now it has become a filthy flow of sewage, and has beâ€" come kown as a "carp‘s paradise." Those who are unfortunately unemâ€" ployed at present cannot even go fishing. This river in past year‘s eupplied many a meal for the needy. What happens, when biologists take samples of the water and find it contaminated? Nothing. The matâ€" ter is always shelved. Surely there could be some action taken against thowe responsible for such conditions which are a menace to humanity. I kave been a resident of the Grand river valley all my life and have made a study of river conditions and 1 will challenge any man to say that the conditions of the Grand are not caused from the Kitchener and Watâ€" erloo sewage disposal plants. This unâ€" pleasant situation will tend to grow more acute, from time to time. We, as ‘residents of the valley, are not getting justice. It is imperative that steps be taken immediately to remeâ€" dy the situation, before action is taken against those places responâ€" sible. It has been said, from one in the know that oneâ€"third of the flow of the Grand at Blair is sewage disâ€" posal and the terrible odor emanates from this source. The river at presâ€" ent is full of slime, scum and filth. Where once uponâ€"iâ€"time picnickers epent many a happy hour, they are now conspicuous by their absence. Swimming for the most part has been extinct, only with one or two exceptions and they are taking a big chance of taking typhoid. I believe that the eewage disposal is responâ€" sible for the high acidity of the waâ€" ters which is detrimental to fish and ie the cause of an insufficient oxygen: supply which fieh must have to surâ€" vive. The whole matter would re «olve itself into a very deep research problem, which would require the service of a biologist for a period of time, in order to determine the cause of the mortality of the fish which has been denied by Kitchener authorities. Why restock streams while this nuisance is evident? The Grand at one time attracted tourists galore for its game fish, but now the disgracefu) condition makes one wish that the river was miles away. I made it my business recently to study three large volumes on sewâ€" age dieposal, ite remedies and reâ€" ports of several royal commissions in various countries. In them I found the following phrase. ‘"Outbreak of disease is God‘s will being done, when patiently it is man‘s duty which is being: left undone." Possibly the worst type of sewâ€" age is that from tanneries and brewâ€" eries and when its ratio to the volâ€" ume is at all larke, it is often the the «ource of trouble, especially if it becomes eeptic. It has been found that land treatment is the logical way of disposal, and in many cities has been recorted to where nuiâ€" «ances were reported. There is danger from disease in alâ€" lowing unpurified sewage to pollute etreams. In conclusion let me say that raw sewage has been quite eviâ€" dent in the Grand.~Is there a posâ€" sibility that in order to economize certain eewage disposal plants are (umping their sewage into the Grand in a raw state? It has been said eo by a number who patrol the banks of the Grand. I personally am going to be responsible for calling a meetâ€" ing of all interested in a ‘general clean up, and if needs‘be, action taken to protect our people.
