mm The sceptic tank method of disposing of sewage is almost an essential part of modern methods of sanitation in cities other than such as are located on large streams. As a part of modern conveniences in isolated residences, such as suburban and farm homes this method is most desirable. But now come claimants to royalties on the use of the sceptic tank process. Their claims are combatted by many cities. A conference of representatives of twenty Kansas cities with the chairman of a league of Iowa cities similarly interested was held recently at the school of engineering, University of Kansas.

The subject was discussed at length, resulting in the appointment of a committee to invetsigate the justice of the claims of infringement on the so-cailed Cameron patent and to report at a future meeting.
