OVERHEAD STREET WIRES
INTERFERENCE WITH TREES [from our own correspondent] HAMILTON. Thursday Advice was received by the Hamilton Beautifying Society last evening from a sub-committee that, while endeavouring to make the streets of Hamilton beautiful by tree-planting, the society had been handicapped by the ever-increasing reticulation of overhead wires for the telegraph, telephone and electric lighting systems. The altered conditions had made some trees quite unsuitable for streets by the drastic and unsightly pruning to which they had been necessariiy subjected. It -was necessary that the Borough Council should be represented on the sub-committee so that a helpful cooperation could be obtained in the best interests of the borough. It was decided to consult the Borough Council before taking further action.
