LIGHT SYSTEM
INAUCURATED
". s. FalUcetts Contribution to
Wensley AUenue a Bril-
liant One

Wensley avenue between Fifth and
Sixth streets was brilliantly illumi-
mated last night for the first time,
power having been turned on to the
new lighting system which has been
installed through the generosity OF
Will S. Fawcett.
There are eight lights in the block,
four at the street intersections and
four distributed along the block on
either side of the street. The posts
are of concrete and of ornamental de-
sign and surmounted with frosted
porcelain globes. The lights are suf-
ficiently close together to illuminate
the entire street and go long way
toward lifting the thick darkness
which until now has hung over the
south end of the city after sundown.
Mr.. Fawcett's design in installing
the system has been broader than
merely to provide lights for his own
street and it is hoped by Mr.. Fawcett
and others that the example furnish
cd will prompt the property owners
along other streets to go and do like
