BOISE FORTUNATE IN
. ITS STREET LIGHTING

Boise S street lighting system is not
excelled by that of any city of its
size in the United States. said Ernest
L. Bee, an illumination engineer of
Harrison n. j., in the course of his
talk on modern lighting before the Uni
versity club Saturday night.
The blue arc lights in the central
part OF town afford a contrast, he
explained, with the yellow white lights
used in the window lighting of the
stores, and as our vision is dependent
largely on contrasts, the effect is very
satisfactory. The post lights are ex-
cellent, though he recommended paint
ing the posts in the spring to freshen
them
Mr.. Bee was introduced by o. G. f.
Markhus of the Idaho Power company.
who first introduced himself as the
head OF the power trust" This sug-
gested that the talk of the evening
might be propaganda" and it was. in
a way. 1t was an advocacy of scien-
tific methods in the lighting Of stores,
factories, offices and homes. Lantern
slides from photographs illustrated the
points he made, such as stepping or
zigzagging the lamps in machine shops
so that the light will fall over the
workmans right shoulder and dispe
shadows about machinery; the use OF
colored globes for bringing out the
right color effects in show windows
semi and full indirect illumination In
offices and living rooms.
Tables were also given to show the
advantages to be derived in industrial
establishments from the use of the ex-
actly proper type of reflectors and size
of electric lamps. Increased speed ant
quantity of output and lessened acct.
dents result. Each of Mr.. Bees hear.
ers gained some practical ideas h,
could put to use in his homo or place
of business.
Refreshments after the Universit,
clubs customary style, sandwiches
doughnpts and cider, followed the talk
in the Commercial club dining room.
