Water is the life blood of a community as an oasis is to the caravan in
the desert. Without a sufficient supply of water no community can prosper
and grow. If its water supply is not adequate, the community will, as it were,
wither on the vine just as a growing plant that is not watered properly.
Water is a commodity so precious that no tyrant has ever dared deny it
to his people. The earliest records of our civilization are linked with the
spring, the water holes, the rivers and the wells. Wars have been fought
over water rights, and mighty nations have vanished because their water
rights failed. Men have battled to death over the last drop of water in a
canteen. Families have given up their homes and deserted their properties
because of failing wells and dried up water sources.
London was virtually destroyed by fire in the 17th century and Chicago
was reduced to ashes in 1871 because sufficient water could not be delivered
to the right place at the right time.
Water is a natural resource and as such must be conserved. It must be
neither wasted nor put to use in quantities inconsistent with the supply that
is economically available.
With these thoughts in mind the water plant operators must realize that
they have more than one job to fulfill. First of all to deliver the highest
quality of water that can be delivered; and second, to conserve water wher-
ever possible. These are the aims of the employees of your utility company.
