THE BEST WAY OF CHANGE.
/’WeVaW bound to prop up the social fftbrio ;rebuilding ;is taking place,’?, writes Dr Slater, MiP., : ■‘The iHuetrat-ibn i'P use to my own ' people ' in Beftn&nastey is that Of the reeon-
struetipn'of the borough electric lighting station. This generating station was old and unsatisfactory, and its ; equipment was hopelessly out of date. The building needed replacement and the machinery required to be ‘transformed’ to a different, type. Yet all this work had to be carried out without interference for one moment, day or night, with the supply of current to the houses and factories of the district. A stoppage would have meant grave disturbance of the industry and life of the area.. While some walls of the station were being demolished, others were strutted and shored and supported for the tiiii'e being. So with the reconstruction of the social system. So with parliamentary legislation dealing therewith.”
