NEW LOOK FOR AN UPPER RICCARTON STREET.—Two views of Lochee road. The upper photograph was taken on Friday and the lower one on September 20. The residents are proud of their street because all its wiring is now underground largely because of their own efforts. They paid £l5 a section to the Post Office and £18 a section to the Municipal Electricity Department, plus individual connexion charges, to effect the change. The scheme for residents to support the change-over was initiated by Mr R. J. S. Eggleston.
