This good news was given t6 an “A. and T.” reporter bn Wednesday, by Mr,. R W, Harris, the Lighting Enghj€erJ“ Fof nearly a fortnight-now, i every available workman has 'beeh (efigaged''bh ' th'e' task of cleaning and overhauling the gas lamps, and I- think’I can safely .say that more than 9fi per cent:, of the lamps will be ready by Sunday night," Mr. Harris* said. “ The men have been working every evening until dusk, afid ordinary domestic maintenance, Jobs have been left. o'ver, because -I: feel, sure that the, public, will. wAnt. street lighting mora than anything else,” he; added. The lighting will be brighter than most people probably anticipate, a ^hundred times more powerful than.' the present ..“ star­ lights.’’ So far. as gas lighting Is concerned. It will be a light emitted from one maiitle and equivalent to normal peace -time, lighting In. the side streets. i/Vn IfiCli or two at the. top of the glass will be blacked-out so: as to prevent light from shining upwards, but this Vwlll hardly be noticeable.. Electrlci lamps, too,-will be; deflected downwards. The mer­ cury vapour i lamps, erected In Whalley-road .'just before the war, will not be used, but these stand­ ards are being adapted to take an ordinary lamp of 60 or 100 watts The standard of lighting will be approxlraatelyi one-fifth of what, it

was previously. ; No test - of the lighting arrangements : is ! being made before Sunday-night, but the lamp at the entrance: to the Gas Works at the I end of the Chester-


, avenue playgfouhd' has; this week befen lit according to the new per­ mitted standards and |those who have seen It are amazed;at.Its bril­ liance. Passers-by have stopped and stared In wpndermbnt, almost amounting toawe ! “ Its as good as: t’luminatlons,’’ one man was heard to declare. , A good twenty paces away from the -lamp one can read a newspaper quite comfort­ ably. On Sunddy night, too, win­ dows (excepting skylights) In any building need not be blacked-out. However, windows must be covered with curtaining or some material which will prevent any object in the roim from , being distinguished fnm outside. -'
