Mr. Paterson. I shall be very pleased to do so.

STATEMENT OF DR. A. W. GOODALE,
OF THOUSAND ISLAND PARK.

Mr. Gardner. What is your position at Thousand Island Park, Dr. Goodale?

Dr. Goodale. I am the secretary of the association and health officer. I have held those positions for several years. We received a notice from this commission from Washington to appear here. However, we have nothing to ask of you.

Mr. Gardner. What are your particular duties as health officer?

Dr. Goodale. I have had charge of putting down all the sewers, looking after our water, getting rid of our closets, and running them by water instead of having outdoor closets.

Mr. Gardner. Have you a system of sewage disposal there?

Dr. Goodale. We have.

Mr. Gardner. What is your outlet?

Dr. Goodale. Our outlet is the St. Lawrence River. We have a sewer that runs through the center of the park to the river. Then each street has a sewer that runs into the main sewer, and through that into the river below where we take our water.
