All the other petitions are`on order with the Indiana & Michigan Electric Company. In regard to the light on Prast Boulevard, to which reference was made, this light was installed merely for the purpose of indicating the curve in the street. There does not appear to be any other street purpose to be served as this is not at a cross street. This is a 1000 lumen light which is not interefered with by trees, and lights the curve for which it was intended. There are so -any petitions on file at this time for lights at locations where no light now exists that our efforts have been to get lights installed where the need is greatest.
