in the fact that three Of them can be
operated at the same cost as one of
the arc lamps. The cost of installation
is also greatly reduced as the cost Of
the arc lamp is $25 while the new
lamps installed will cost only a little
over So. 1t is said that the cost of
maintenance is much less In the case
of the smaller lamps and the trouble
of caring for them is so small that it
viii bring little added work for the
trimmers.
It is thought that a proper switching
about of the arc lamps now in use and
the addition of a large number of the
new lamps would make it possible to
have the city ablaze with light ct no
increase in the city's lighting bill.
The company is planning to install
a number of the smaller lamps in par
ticularly dark spots in the city for the
inspection of the members of the coun-
Gil within the next few days.
