Those flags were fitted into the windows faciug Post Office Square. At 4.30 p.m. on Friday, Messrs. Early Bros., Ltd., rang up the Post Office, anil offered to illuminate ihe "flag transparencies; and by 7 p.m. on Saturday 20 powerful "Wizard" lamps had been'installed, and the front of the Post Office presented a beautiful sight. The Allies' llags stood out ill Kfld relief, and attracted a buxta lutri appreciative .crowd of sightseer,s on Saturday, Sunday, and lionday nights. The "Wizard" lamps used at the Post Office are practically the same as those used for lighting private houses.
