Abstract
THERE is hardly a Corporation in the United Kingdom, we venture to say, to whose members sewer gas is not a hideous nightmare. It is the legacy of a bygone generation of hygienic enthusiasts, and is likely to prove the bête noir of many a succeeding generation of despairing sanitarians. Despite the brilliant achievements in the domain of hygiene of which the present century can justly be proud, the sewerage problem remains still a gordian knot the disentanglement of which seems as far off as ever.
