Commuters Strike for Gas
Lamps at Station
Special to the EVENING VIEWS.

~ fEN 50 ~ W ~ AL
Spotswood, Dec. 9:-An EFFORT
will be made by parties influential
with the borough fathers to induce
common council to appeal to the
Pennsylvania railroad for gas lights
at the station at Spotswood. At
present the station and surroundings
are lighted by oil lamps. It Is be-
lieved by many that an appeal from
the councilmen to the p. r. n.
would be favorably received by off,
Gals Of that corporation, as large
and luminous gas lamps are now
maintained by the railroad at the
Old Bridge station, only two miles
away.
Spotswood Is almost completely
piped with Public Service gas mains
and connection with the railroad
station would be a matter of only q
few feet and several hours OF labor.
A sample street lamp will be In
stalled In front OF borough hall and
the council may adopt this mode OF
lighting the streets In the course Of
a year. Many residents are adding
gas heating and lighting Improve
ments to their homes AMI similar at
titude on the part OF the railroad at
the local station would place them
in high favor with commuters.
