DANIELSON AND PUTNAM NEWS
LIGHTING CONTRACT EXPIRES. Committee Recommends Change to
 New System and Other Improve

menus
 Burdette c. Hopkins and Damase BOulias, the committee en lighting of the court of burgesses, have called attention to the fact that the bor- oughs contract with the Peoples Light and Power company for lighting the streets of Danielson has expired and that 1t seems advisable that the voters consider the making of a new contract at the annual borough meeting to be held next week.
 The annual report of this commit tee shows that the borough is paying the lighting company a total of $3,096 g. year for street lights, this being at the rate of $72 a year for each arc lamp and $15 year for each incan- descent. The last contract made with the company expired in September last and has not been renewed, Since that time the lights have been paid for on the last contract basis.
 In considering the making of a new contract, it is suggested by the com mittee that it would seem to be an economical and wise plan to replace the 2S street arcs in present use with the tungsten incandescent system. It is understood that this new system gives more brilliant and satisfactory light and at lower cost than is possi ble to obtain with the type of arc now being used in Danielson.
 By adopting the tungsten group system 1t would not be only possible to have better street light at a low CT price, it Is said. but the money saved from the present lighting charg es could be used to pay for lights in several localities Tn the borough where it is felt they are badly needed.
 In making their report the commit tee referred to pays acknowledgment to the generosity of the Peoples Light and Power company in lighting the street circuits without extra charge on rainy and cloudy nights when under the moonlight schedule in force they were not called upon to do so. No additions or removals e1 lights have been made during the past year, but the committee recommends that the entire system should be in- Spected, the position of some of the lights changed and several new ones added.
