electric light poles at convenient points
throughout the Canadian city, by
means OF which the radiators Of au-
tomohiles are kept warm, while stand
ing outdoors In cold weather. Anyone
wishing 20 take advantage Of the cleo
tric current for heating the radiator
while his car Is left standing pays
an annual fee to tho electric light COM
pany and receives n key that enables
him to use tho current taps. The
customer also receives license num-
Der which is tod 10 tho connecting

parties are using tho plugs. The con-
sumner must. OF course, provide his
