Since we al- ready covered the matter of sewage and the alternatives of the Weston Report (alternative of systems serv- ing Dallas Borough and Township and Kingston Township) in a re- cent story in the Post, we turn di- rectly to the report on water. Clearly, the water supply has been hard put to keep up with the 76 per cent increase in population of the Back Mountain in the last thirty years. * * * “The water supply for the Back | Mountain Area is furnished by 13 water companies. They get water from 40 wells, 10 springs and a little from the Rulison Evans Reser- voir at Huntsville. There are many sections in the Water system that receive excellent service but, be- cause of various deficiencies throughout other parts, the overall water service in Back Mountain could be considerably improved. “There is a definite need for a more adequate water supply and improved distribution. Most of the water companies operating today were formed to supply water to spe- cific developments only, and no pro- visions were made for expansion or fire protection. The advantage of having fire hydrants is enjoyed by only 36% of the public water cus- tomers in Back Mountain (this is as of 1962). In most cases the water systems are not capable, nor were they designed to produce and de- liver the volume of water required at present, Many of the companies are con- scientiously attempting to maintain acceptable service despite inade- quate facilities and increasing de- mand for water. Of the 46 miles of water mains, 56.6% were found to be less thtan 3 inches in diameter and this is substandard. The exist- ing storage capacity in 1961 was only about one-third the needed capacity in 1962 and water demands have grown since then. “Since there is the possibility that the ground water sources (the wells and springs) may prove in- adequate, it is recommended by the Luzerne County Planning Commis- sion that studies be made of the Harvey's Lake water supply poten- tial, perhaps as part of the study being made by the U. S. Corps of Engineers on the Susquehanna River Basin. Another source would be the new lake being developed at the Francis Slocum State Park. Also constructing impounding . facilities and collecting stream water during periods of excess flow should be considered. This impounded water could supplement ground water sup- plies during drier periods. “Since there are so many water companies in ‘the Back Mountain Area, each with similar problems and each trying to correct them by individual means, cooperative effort should result in a more capable water system, probably with lower unit costs. The minimum charge for each Back Mountain Water Com- pany is more than one and one-half times greater than the rate of the Pennsylvania Gas and Water Company. “Lack of public sewers and the characteristic of the soil permitting little absorption presents the pos- sibility of over-saturation and sew- age flowing through a rock fissure Ashbridge Now Graduate Banker Ernest Ashbridge, Jr., 90 W.

Lewis, Attorney Back Mountain Water Is Hard Put To Keep Up With Population Boom into a water supply. “In the past 30 years the popula- tion of the Greater Wilkes-Barre area and Luzerne County as a whole declined while it increased in the Back Mountain area almost 76%. Water is one of the most important factors to be considered if proper growth is to accompany this popula- tion increase. “It is recommended that a Re- gional Water Committee be estab- lished for the Greater Back Moun- tain Area to: 1. Study the existing water system. 2. Study future popu- lation; its distribution and density. 3. Have an engineering plan pre- pared for an integrated water sys- tem. 4. Review assets, liabilities and water charges of the existing water companies in the Back Mountain area. 6. Recommend feasible alter- natives.and last, but not least 7. Develop public support. “The material I gave you this evening on the Back Mountain Area was taken from a Regional Water System Report by the Luzerne County Planning Qominission; dated 1962. SPORTSMANS CORNER by Jim Hopple I have had many requests as to what are COOT? Coots are known to most people as Mud Hens. Hardly a body of fresh water in North America is without coots at least sometime during the year. They are easily identified by their chunky slate gray body, black heads and white bills (not money bills). They are the most aquatic members of their family and have developed flaps or lobes on their toes to aid in swimming. They swim well and dive expertly too. They are not strong fliers and when taking off from the water, they patter along for a considerable distance. Once in flight the white trailing edge of the ‘inner wing is a conspicuous field mark. Coots are hardy and remain in northern marshes until forced out by ice. In the spring they re- turn early, arriving soon after the first big thaw. Their voice is loud and wvaried. Sound tracks of this unusual array of calls from one bird are dubbed into films and tapes to provide jungle background for movies and television. Coots make their nests in dense stands of cattail or bulrushes. The nest is occasionally exposed, some- times it floats, anchored to nearby vegetation. Both male and female incubate 8 to 12 eggs for about three weeks. The downy young swim and dive with their parents. Other common names for the coot are Cowbill and Blue Peter. EMERGENCY FIRE: Here's how to start a fire if your matches are wet and you need heat badly. Gather dry bark, grass, leaves, and wrap in a cloth. A handkerchief or a piece of shirttail will do. Hold the dry tinder in the cloth next to the muzzle of your rifle or shotgun and fire the weapon. Be extremely care- ful, of course, to keep your hand! clear and don’t fire through the tinder bag, just next to it so muzzle blast ignites cloth and tinder. Blow gently on smouldering fire until it flames. SMOKED CHUCKS: Rout young woodchucks out of their dens by stuffing rags down escape holes and dropping a railroad flare down the last. You have to find all the holes, though. Because the woodchuck will. * RUST AWAY: A typewriter eraser will remove rust spots from guns, rods, hooks etc. Any questions or information you might have for this column may be called to 674-3529, or written to SPORTSMANS CORNER, BOX 408, DALLAS, PA. 18612.

There were names on them and I could hardly believe those people wielded the brushes for those paintings. There was David Adams, and Richard McCleary, and Antoinette, and Victoria Saba, Eliz- abeth Farrell, Verna Kotarski, and Josephine English. Names! But if you could see the hands of some of them -- fingers tied in knots almost. Some with but little muscular con- trol. The art teachers who come in once a week to work with these brave people and make them think they can do something worth hang- ing on a wall, well, as one of our TV program people would say, “Let’s give them a great big hand!” Both for the teachers and the pu- pils. One blue-eyed Irish pupil with a twinkle in her eye and voice said, “I didn’t dare tell them I used to teach art in Teachers College or they'd expect too much of me!” Then there is Betty Yakupscin who is learning to walk, ten steps from one door to another along the corridor, then past the door and ten more steps.

One of the more fascinating chapters in local history deals with Rafting Days or Lumbering-Off Days on the Susquehanna and the Brad- ford-Sullivan-Wyoming County Libraries has recently acquired new pictures taken in those times. Any one interested in obtaining a copy of these may contact the library for further information. Rafting Days on the Susquehanna were colorful ones. It was a danger- ous, difficult way of life and the men who worked in the timber business were a hale and boisterous lot. The fact that they were also wasteful is regrettable and must be laid to their ignorance of the need to conserve the woodlots, and of conservation practices so wide- spread today. Susquehanna pine was used in the production of spars or masts and their length and strength made them much prized by boatmen. During the spar producing era tim- bers from the West branch of the Susquehanna were rafted to Phil- adelphia and Baltimore and shipped all over the world. In the score of years between 1840 and 1860 there were between 30,000 and 50,000 men working in | the forests and following the log- I ging rafts up and down the Susqge- t Zion their strength, they shall mount up with wings like eagles (in jet planes or rocket ships), they shall run (like Olympic athletes) and not be recovering from" stroke, step by step) and not faint.” Not quite faint!
