SKATERS WANT
MORE LIGHT
Suggestion 10 Made That Skating
Places on Lake Be Illuminated
in Some Manner.

The suggestion has been made that
arc lights be installed on the shore
and on poles erected through the Ice
to illuminate the popular skating
places on Lake Keokuk- While many
people are enjoying the ice and skat-
ing, many more who would go say that
the lack of light on the lake prevents
them from taking advantage OF the
fine skating. 1t has been suggested
that the city take some steps to illum1-
nate the Kinks on the lake. Burling-
ton has several arc lights strung out
over the most popular skating points
on the lake and the sport is having q
big revival there.
