The limits of the town at that time were on the North by the Fall- ing Spring; on the East by Second Street; and on the South by approxi- mately Liberty Street; and on the West by the Conocheague Creek.
In the beginning of the 19th Century no streets had been graded or paved, although each property owner was required to maintain a walk in front of his own property. The original plan of the inhabitants was to make Second Street the principal business street, but this was changed to Main Street after considerable influence was exerted by those prop- erty owners.
Prior to 1813, the Lincoln Highway and Main Street were repaired by the Turnpike Company, by turnpiking, which consisted of placing one foot of broken stone covered with gravel and clay. The first record of a contract awarded by the Borough was in 1813 to repair the Lincoln Highway and Main Street near the "Diamond."
The first covered storm sewer was built in Burkhart Avenue from Main Street to the Creek in 1823. This sewer had an inside height of 41/2 feet and a width of 31/2 feet.
The extension of this form of street repairs, grading, and sewers continued with some modification until 1912 when brick paving was laid, and plans adopted to continue this paving four blocks each year. This plan was not followed, due to the increased cost of materials.
In 1918 a general plan of macadem construction and surface oiling was adopted, and the Lincoln Highway and Main Street were paved first with water-bound macadem, and treated with road oil. This was the first year that a large quantity of road oil was used as a maintenance and construction material. Prior to this time, oil was used as a dust preventive and partially paid for by the property owners abutting on the streets treated.
This plan was continued until 1927 and 1928, when the Lincoln Highway and Main Street were again repaved with reinforced cement concrete.
Due to shortages of materials during 1946, the work of the Street Department was confined to maintenance work.

ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT
The office of the Engineer in the Borough of Chambersburg was created by Ordinance adopted by the Council on June 14, 1909.
The Council appoints the Borough Engineer, and determines who shall be his assistants.
The duties of the Engineer are to furnish engineering services to the various departments of the Borough; to have charge of all property not under the supervision of the Manager of Utilities; to have super- vision over the Street Department, Parks and Playgrounds Department. and the Garbage and Refuse Collection Department, and to report monthly to the council on all works completed under his supervision.
The general duties of the office of the Engineer are to make, supply and preserve copies of plans, specifications, estimates, maps, charts, pro- files, etc .; to keep records of the location of water, sewer and gas mains; and to perform clerical work incidental to the departments under the Engineer's supervision.
13
MUNICIPAL MARKET
The Municipal Market Building, erected by the Borough in 1941, provides space for the weekly farmers' market, as well as facilities for many other activities, especially the wintertime program of the Recre- ation Department.
The building is one story, 150 feet long and 50 feet wide with a full basement. The entire construction is of concrete foundations and brick walls faced with glazed tile in the market room. Steel trusses support the roof which provides a ceiling height of twenty feet in the center and fifteen feet on the sides. Fluorescent lighting is provided for the market room, concrete walks are laid on three sides of the building, and a macadam paved parking lot to accommodate fifty cars is provided on the North side.
Market sessions are now held each Friday from 1:00 P. M. to 7:00 P. M. Space in the building is rented to dealers and a close supervision is maintained over the methods of display to keep the wares in a sani- tary condition. The operation of the Market is supervised by the Market Master.
On January 1, 1946, there were 23 dealers renting a total of 207 lienear feet of space.
The total cost of the Market Room and equipment was $28,686.35; the total cost of the basement was $13,500.18; making the total value of the building $42,186.53.
GARBAGE AND REFUSE COLLECTION
Effective April 1, 1943, the borough of Chambersburg acquired the business of the Chambersburg Sanitary Garbage Disposal Company. This company and another private operator were the two largest col- lectors of garbage and refuse, taking care of the majority of this work in the Borough.
In order to prevent a serious breakdown in this type service the Borough purchased this business upon the determination of the owners to discontinue operating, and after decision of the other private col- lectors that they were not equipped and did not elect to take over this business.
For the business and equipment of the Chambersburg Sanitary Garbage Disposal Company the Borough paid $4,500.00, and in addition made capital expenditures in the amount of $2,666.55 for equipment to efficiently conduct the business.
Under a revised ordinance adopted by the Borough Council the necessary rules, regulations and rates were established. Household rates are $1.00 per month for the removal of the garbage and rubbish, $1.25 per month for garbage, rubbish and ashes, provided in both cases all materials are placed on the first or ground floor of the property for collection; and $2.00 per month for removal of garbage, rubbish and ashes from the cellar of the property. Commercial rates are by separate contract, based upon amount of material to be removed.
14
PUBLIC COMFORT STATION
A Public Comfort Station was built by the Borough of Chambers- burg and the Commissioners of Franklin County in 1932 at a total cost of $10,689.03, and is maintained jointly by them. The operation costs and repairs are divided. In 1946 the costs were $1,771.49, of which the Borough paid $920.57. In addition, the Borough furnished water and electricity in the amount of $645.85, and the County Commissioners furnished heat and janitor service without charge.
Two attendants are employed, and are on duty each day during the hours of operation to maintain order and keep the station in an orderly and sanitary manner.
The use made of this station has greatly exceeded the estimates made by the original promoters, and the records show that more than 2,000 persons attended this station in one day.
PARKS AND PLAYGROUNDS
The Burgess and Town Council at the present, as well as those in the past, recognize leisure time activities and recreation as an essential governmental function and have adopted a plan for expansion and im- provement that will eventually provide for Chambersburg a system of Parks, Athletic Fields, Playgrounds, and Play Areas to conform to standards set by the National Recreation Association.
The playground system was started through the efforts of churches, civic organizations and citizens who together formed small associations to secure sites, equipment and voluntary supervision for play areas for small children. Much of their equipment was made by members of these associations and by funds for materials secured from festivals and con- tributions. As the value of these areas was proven, the demand for expansion increased and the Borough of Chambersburg then assumed the obligations of maintenance and operation, assisted by the various citizens' committees.
The present playground program is designed for a twelve week period during the months of June, July and August and is under the direction of the Parks and Playgrounds Committee of the Town Council, together with the Borough Engineer, Playground Supervisor, seven girl leaders and an Athletic Director.
The Playground system consists of three combination athletic fields and playgrounds and five play areas distributed over the Borough at locations as accessible as possible to the more densly populated sections.
In order to help meet the need of a year around recreational pro- gram, a Recreation Center was opened on March 1, 1943, in the basement of the Municipal Market Building, under sponsorship of the Department of Parks and Playgrounds. The center was open only during the winter months, on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday evenings of each week from 7:00 to 9:30 o'clock. Wednesdays were kept open and practically all of these days were made use of by organizations spon- soring recreational events. The regular program of activities was under the supervision of the Supervisor of Playgrounds.
15
The colored asphalt tile floor, acoustical tile ceiling, painted walls, furniture and equipment, consisting of ping-pong tables, shuffleboard court, game tables, piano, combination radio and record player, etc., make a very attractive game and recreation room. The center proved very popular with 14,781 persons making use of its facilities according to attendance figures kept by the supervisor.
HISTORY OF THE CHAMBERSBURG HEALTH BOARD
The first meeting of the Chambersburg Health Board was held in Council Hall September 26, 1893. The following men-Dr. Johnston McLanahan, A. J. White, J. Brua Hoyer, and George Denton were sworn in an members by Burgess George A. Wood. Dr. John A. Bouse was appointed Health Officer.
Dr. Johnston McLanahan was elected President of the Board, which office he held until October 3, 1912.
Among the first duties of the Board were the enacting of local sani- tary measures which, in conjunction with the State Regulation, began functioning shortly after its inception.
The health Board was the outcome of an Act of the General As- sembly of May 9, 1893, authorizing Chambersburg to appoint such a Board.
The duties of the Health Board have varied with conditions of the times, but the main actions have always been the maintaining of sani- tary health measures concerning the public.
Contagious diseases and their control have always been one of the chief duties of the Health Board.
Other duties are seeing that the milk supply is brought to the con- sumer in the best possible condition as a palatable, healthful product, free of preservatives or adulterations; issuing of health certificates to those who work or are employed in restaurants, drug stores, hotels, eating houses, etc., nuisances affecting the public are corrected, and the general civic conditions of the city are observed.
During the year 1946, 177 cases of contagious diseases were re- ported to the Board of Health. Three hundred and thirty-five common nuisances were reported to the Board of Health, which were investigated by the Health Officer and removed or remedied. Thirty-eight connections were made to the Sanitary Sewer System during the year 1946. Five permits were granted to all milk dealers. The Health Officer made 1708 calls during the year. Twenty-two permits were issued to haulers of garbage and refuse. During the year 1946 an average of 30 loads of refuse, etc., was received daily at the Borough of Chambersburg incinera- tor and dump, located on the Borough Farm, and was properly placed and disposed of.
Sediment testing of milk was made quarterly, and the preservative test made annually.
Anyone whose milk registered unsatisfactory on two successive testings were refused the privilege of selling milk within the Borough for local distribution.
The Board meets the last Monday of each month in regular session with additional special meetings.
The members are Dr. B. M. Beattie, President; Dr. L. H. Seaton, W. M. L. Etter, Paul Walker, F. Lester Marshall, and Frank J. Croft, Health Officer and Secretary.

HISTORICAL SKETCH OF CHAMBERSBURG SANITARY SEWER DEPARTMENT
When the Borough of Chambersburg decided in 1910 and 1911 to obtain its water supply from the State Forest at Caledonia, it was neces- sary to obtain a permit from the Pennsylvania State Health Depart- ment, and when the State Health Department issued this permit, it granted to Chambersburg the right to the water of Birch Run, but it also provided that, for this right, the Borough of Chambersburg was to install a Sanitary Sewerage System with a proper Disposal Plant of a capacity sufficient to take care of the town for twenty years to come.
The same Bond Issue, providing funds for the construction of the water supply line between the mountain and Chambersburg, provided also for sufficient bonds to put in a Sanitary Sewerage System in Cham- bersburg. This system was constructed, and was put in service August 1, 1912. As building operations developed in the town, new laterals have been run, and at the present time the entire system consists of :

At the present time there is a total of 169,324.76 feet, or 32.07 miles of sewers, 127 Flush Tanks, and 768 Manholes. 3,401 buildings are connected with the system.
The State Health Department insists on a very high standard of quality for the effluent from the Disposal Plant, and weekly reports are made to the Department showing each day's operation.
The total sewage handled at the Sanitary Sewerage Disposal Plant during 1946 was 576,684,647 gallons. The total cost for the operation and maintenance of the plant during this year 1946 was $20,377.69. The average cost for handling the sanitary sewage during 1946 was 3.53 cents per 1,000 gallons.

During 1946 thirty-two buildings were con- verted into apartments, requiring the inspection and testing of 295 fix- tures. There were 89 alterations which required the inspection of 381 fixtures. Three new buildings, outside of the Borough limits were con- nected with the Borough of Chambersburg Water System, and this re- quired the inspection of 20 fixtures. Sixteen Bendix Washers installed during the year made it necessary to inspect and approve 48 fixtures. There were 3 air-conditioning plants installed which involved the in- spection of 9 fixtures. Thirty-two automatic gas water heaters were in- stalled, each one of which required inspection. Forty-five new hot water boilers required the inspection of 45 fixtures. The Plumbing Inspector inspected the plumbing work and fixtures in the installation of 3 elec- tric water coolers. This involved the inspection of 6 fixtures. There were 3 electric dish washers installed which required the inspection of 6 fix- tures. The sand traps in connection with the Chambersburg Sanitary Sewerage System were inspected frequently which covered 576 inspec- tions.
