The progress has been impeded by
the fact that homes and industries
have grown since our first civiliza-

streams and our industries have re-
moved their wastes gradually and con-
tinually. This however, has been a
work that of necessity moves slowly,
for upon the great industrial plants
our people depend for some of the
necessities of living and hundreds of
families by working in the great man-
ufacturing plants of the Common-
wealth, It would not have done to ar
bitrarily have ordered all these indus.
