MAKE MANY CHANGES
IN STREET LIGHTING
New Plan Saves the Taxpayers
Money; List of Changes Is
Announced

When the proposed changes in the
electric street lighting of Steelton,
embodied in an ordinance now in
Council and slated for final passage
next meeting, are completed there will
be Just 1913 street lights in the bor-
ough. This is an increase of nifty
seven lights over the number now in
service.
Under the purposed plan there will
be not only more lamps but the cost
OF the borough will be decreased
something like s490 a year. This re-
duction is obtained by substituting 100
candlepower lamps for some of the
present arc lamps.
Just where the new lights will be
placed and how many changes Will be
made to the present lights is OF con-
siderable interest to Steelton taxpay-
ers. In order that they may know
whether or not their immediate neigh
borhood is getting its share of the i'm
provements, the Telegraph will print
changes so far authorized. The sched-
ule of changes for the First ward fol-
lows, The remaining wards will be
printed tomorrow evening.
