Electric current from Lake Coleridge was turned on for the first time at Leeston, Springston. and Springston South on Saturday night. The ceremony was performed by Sir R. Heaton Rhodes, who said that the Government had realised that electricity must be developed, and it meant to develop the schemes as quickly as possible, Mr. A. G. Henderson, president of the Canterbury Progress League, said that in no part of the world so sparsely populated as Canterbury, -was there a better and cheaper electricity supply. That was due in large measure to successive Governments, and to the present Minister for Public Works and his colleagues.
