The present tion of affairs is undoubtedly” due to izht and alittle attention on the part of s ove the council would remedy it. additional lighting can be secured without any additional cost. Another point in_this connection that demands the attention of the council is the contract with the moon, which is_rather imperfect in its workings. ~The whole trouble is caused by the failure of that Tumi to put in an appearance on all occasions called for by the bills, The contract with the electric light company provides that no lights shall be turned on on these occasions and all is well when the moon makes all connections chedule time, but on cloudy nights there is an abundant of kick- ing and darkness.
