Excerpt from Municipal Engineering Practice The municipal engineer is called upon to serve officially in more diversified branches of engineering and allied subjects than probably any other technical man. Of these various subjects he may find sewerage, water supply and street paving quite thoroughly treated in several excellent text-books, but practical information concerning street cleaning, constructing public comfort stations, and a score of other matters is not so readily obtainable. It is possible, also, that this lack of textbooks from which these subjects can be taught is one reason, at least, why most of them, although of recognized importance, are not even touched upon by engineering schools in their courses in municipal engineering, and also why greater advance has not been made in these branches of public service. It was in an attempt to meet this need that this book was written. The aim has been to treat at greater or less length all those matters which more or less frequently enter into the work of the city engineer, omitting entirely, however, the three referred to as already fully covered by existing works. Certain others form the subjects of text-books, but are discussed in them from a point of view other than that of the city engineer. Street lighting, for instance, is generally treated from the standpoint of the electrician; the author has endeavored to treat it from that of the representative of the taxpayer. City planning has been discussed voluminously as a means of creating a "city beautiful"; the aim here has been to point out a practical way to a city efficient, healthful and economical.
