Officials of the electrical depart

than the present arc lamps, will
greatly improve the illumination on

These improvements on the streets
mentioned will be made out of th-
special sum OF $4,000 granted by
Congress in the current appropriation
act for replacing old lights and in
stalling new ones.
This is the first time for a numbe-
of years that the electrical depart

lighting. During and after the war
period appropriations have only been
sufficient to maintain existing lights
and install small number of new
ones at scattered points.
