April 19, 1929 · W'ILMETTE· LIF'E . War on Mosquitoes Resumed in Earnest by ~4hatement bist. Wa,rfare against mosquitoes habitating the North Shore Mosquito Abatement district resumed this week after the winter's lull with a full force of sixteen men taking up the extermination work Monday morning; according to Arthur Stringer of Evanston, president of the district. Marked curtailment of the abatement program will be necessary because of the delay in receipt of tax money, Mr.. Stringer states. "We shall have to · operate on borrowed money and will have only about half a·s much available a·s last year," he asserts. One expense which the district wilt be able ·to do without is that of an engi_!teer, since three of the tru·stees are themselves engineers, it is pointed out. They are Howard Philips, F. L. Streed, a graduate of the University of Illinois in engineering, and Paul Hoffman. The sarpe foreman and the same superin-· tendent as were in charge during the beginning of the program last year are · again directing the work. Becauose of the spring rains. there is a great deal of standing water on the flat land and in the ditches as well, and it is to drain this off that the abatement work squad is first turning. They are opening the ditches so that the water will flow away with the gravity force and thus eliminate many breeding places. At pre·sent most of the work will be of a "maintenance" nature, as the abaters call it, that is, it will be to keep in condition the ditches, outlets and drai~.s which were built last year. The sanitary district, which joined in the work last year by opening the river channels west of here, i1s conducti_ n g no operations at the present.
