NEED IS PRACTICAL LIGHT
improvements In illumination VIII
Como When II 10 Known Just
What 10 Desired.

Although glare In illumination has
been described rather aptly as light
out Of place. on the same principle
that dirt Is matter out of place" and
condemned for that reason, the guam
titattve relations Of the subject are
usually entirely forgotten or misun-
derstOOd. Nothing il more exasper-
attng than the glare of an unshielded
arc lamp while within the field of
view and few yards on: and yet
the same lamp in the same part of the
field . couple of blocks away is not
In the slightest degree disturbing to
the normal eye. Moreover. a sufii-
cheney quantity of light may become
very annoying. although its angular
position in the field is such that were
It trivial in amount no one would pay
any attention to 1t. 1t is these Quanti-
tative relations of things that should
be impressed on people who are work
ing with the best intentions toward
improving the conditions of illumina-
ton. The public seldom realizes the
cumulative relations of things. and
when these are important should be
made to comprehend them as quickly
as 1t does the cumulative values. By
all means let US work toward the re-
duction of glare. but first let US find
out from q practical standpoint what

CARRIGAh TELLS
HIS SIDE OF II

Editor The Star; In your issue OF
October . W II. Bassett severely critioises
Mr. NJ. J. carrigan, republican nominee
for county commissioner. by asserting
that Mr.. Carrigan. who owns considerable
property north of Ravcnna park. had a
street paved through his property at
cost TO the city and county OF some -. 900.
And again. that he had the council pass
an ordinance providing for a steel bridge
across RavsnnR park. 20 connect his prop
erty with tho University district, although
this bridge f. to form portion OF an
arterial highway that will be needed some
100 years hence
The only possible Inference being that
Mr. carrigsn uses his influence 10 secure
public money for his own personal gain.
and Is. therefore. an unfit man for county
commissioner.
Tho street referred TO Is p ssrd at.
Tho Automobile club Of Seattle and tho
general public for several Years had been
oiamoring TO have some street in that
vicinity paved so as to connect other
paved streets with the pothell boulevard.
No one ever had any doubt that this was
very desirable Improvement for those
who drive automohilos--whioh Mr., CART
gan does not-and for other vehicles
which pass that way But IL was siren
uousiy and successfully opposed for more
than two years by every property owner
along the route--ircluding Mr. carrigan--
because. none felt able TO boar tho ex-
pense OF paving and all Of US dreaded
the noise and danger. under which we
now suffer. Of an endless procession OF
automobiles and motorcycles using the
street IN front Of our homes for n speed

and none did so more gracefully than did
