RETAILERS PLEASE NOTE!

It has been discovered by the Borough Engineer that there are occasions during the shopping night periods which the bulk supply would stand the full window lighting on the but that on other occasions this would have to be cut out. By way of giving' the shopping centre a guide in the interests of business houses the light on the monument will as from tonight be used as a pilot indicator. When it is burning power for window lighting may be used. When however it i® not in use shopkeepers should 1 refrain' from using their floodlights and pray for better times.
