In many instances, much incon- venience is caused-to-tonants-by-the water supply being disconnected without warning to them, owing to the failure of the guarantor to pay the accounts within the specified period. Tenants are, therefore, ad vised to make suitable arrangements with their landlords to ensure that all water and meter rental accounts are 'paid promptly.

Changes of ownership of property should be notified immediately to this Offico.
