The Clinton News Record, 1930-11-20, Page 59019E DlIINTON-NEVfli RECORD THURSDAY, NOVEMI3EIt 20, 1039'`. iF INTEREST •' TO ;• YOU AND, VIE As we walked up town the other •`re ening;at six o'clock, when the '?@'ovember night had fallen and all lightswere, on, we were stopped by Chief Stong,, who, combines a strict observance of the duties of his office with a .public -Spirited citizen's keen desire foriv' et is 'in ro e nt.s. He turned, us arounden v ito face the Public 'Library, which would not be lighted up for another,jsour; and said: "Look :at that dark ,spot! That is one of our •handsomest public buildings, •don't you think it should have some • "illumination? Think what a beauty spot that would be with a light -be - 'hind the fountain and the water 'turned on ? ' We loo::ed :and we ag- reed., At dusky, just after daylight fails and before the Library is "light- ed, that is quite a dark corner. Many people go up anddown that way, pest • the town hall and Iibrary, cutting off a little corner, and a, light in front -'of the library would illuminate the • way very nicely. It would alto show off the library building and park to • advantage. Clinton is really a rather poorly -lighted town, we could do with twice the number of lights. It may be that -'the town' cannot afford that much of -an increase but a few lights' are es- pedialIy needed. All intersections es- peciall"y those at highways, should - be well lighted: The 'Hydro. ComSnsssion-.has added `to the lighting at their own .corner -by placing a string of -colored lights all along their building. It is a • great advantage, but if white bulbs were used hi place of the blue ones the volume of light would be much greater. Lindbergh says a .blue light -penetrates a,fog better than any oth- -er, but in an ordinary 'atmosphere al- most any ot$ercolor is a better con- •ductor of light. When hydros. was .installed, in., b1le: first dc'teade of this., eentdry,.'motor traffic was very small, the motor --cars owned in the county of Huron ;could probably have been counted"•on the fingers, and a trip by 'Motor from Toronto to Clinton or Goderich 'lead not even been ,eonteanplated. .The. lights installed on the streets then seemed ample, but it is different 'Every day and all day and well into the night cars are coming and going, up and down the highways and along the cross streets. Light is necessary • for safety. The street and finance committees of the town council might get -to- gether and see if some plan could 'not be worked out of giving the town some more light. LONDON ROAD Mrs. Walter Downs of Toronto visited Mrs. Milton Wdltse this week Mr. and Mrs. Frank Rathburn of 'Sombre motored up and spent the week -end at the home of the lat- ter's sister, 1VIrs.
