Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Up, the Rebels It happens occasionally - sanitary drainage being a makeshift business - that a pipe gets choked. Then foul water, which should be running unnoticed into a sewer, backs up, overflows and forms evil pools on the floor of a house. These are most offensive to our eyes and noses. The subject is an unsavoury one. No one, certainly no writer who wishes to be read by pleasant people, cares to dwell on it. But the defects of our drainage are not unlike those which appear now and then in our social system. Dublin, for instance, is a city of very respectable streets and squares, possessing certain fine buildings of which it is justly proud. But behind the respectable streets and squares, within earshot of the fine buildings, there are alleys and lane-ways, not unlike the drains of a house, leading to slums. These are, very properly, out of sight and a man might live long in Dublin comfortably unconscious of the existence of extreme poverty, misery and discontent. If only the drainage system worked without a hitch no one need ever worry. But the drains choke sometimes. Then there is an overflow.
