A CITIZEN OBJECTS
TO NEARBY LIGHT
Says Its Glare Is Injuring the
Eyesight Of His Whole
Family.

The committee on Light IL one OF the
hardest worked sub divisions of the City
Council and at every meeting there are
many requests for additional light and
many other things under the control OF
the Light Department But 1t Is seldom
that citizens contend they have too much
light. They hore frequently, II not IN
deed, nearly always appeal for more OF
this valued commodity. Last ntSht, how
ever, this rule was departed from and a
resident wrote n letter asking thar a
certain electric light be removed because
OF the belief that its searching glare IS
injuring the eye-siglit OF his whole FANNY.
The following extract Is taken from
the letter addressed to the committees
~ beg to call your attention to the s'ee.
trIc lioht at the corner OF Flfth and cana
Streets. The lIght was removed from tne
opposite corner to within about thirty
feet OF my front window,
"MyseIf and family suffered a great
deal OF InconyenIence last summer, from
the glare OF this light believe It has
Injured my oversight, as have had to
consult an ocullst since It was placed
there. We have not slept nlnht In dark
ness for the last two years and believe
this constant llaht Is affecting the eye
slaht of my whole family"
THE letter was referred to the Super
intendent OF the Gas Works. with power
to act and so far he has not determined
upon his course In the matter,
The committee was disposed TO LOOK
upon tho reauest-as a rather unique one
