ELECTRIC LIGHT AT PLIMMERTON
Although the greater part of Plitnmerton, residentially and commercially speaking, has enjoyed the use of electric light for a couple of months, the two chief places of public interest—the Post Office and the Railway Stationstill continue to manage their business with the aid of oil lamps. Yet an advertisement on the railway „ station beseeches people to advertise on spaces at the station because the station is “the centre of interest.” If that be the case, says a resident, it is hig-h time that Pl’immerton’s “centre of interest” discarded smoky oil lamps and took advantage of Government electrical power. The Post Office has been wired for the new light, but according to latest reports it had not yet been connected up with the power line.
