Light
Your Halls





Twenty inspectors have
recently been detailed by
the Tenement Hpuse De¬
partment to see that hall¬
ways of apartment and
tenement houses are lighted
at rfight in accordance with
the law.

The law reads that there
shall be a light at night in
the lower hall and one in
the hall on the second floor.
Many owners and occupants
of tenement buildings un¬
consciously violate these
provisions because of an
inadequate method of con¬
trolling the light.

If you feel that the hall¬
ways of the buildings you
own or occupy are inad¬
equately lighted or the light¬
ing improperly controlled
we shall be pleased to render
you any assistance in our
power.

Write US and one of our
lighting experts will show
you how electric light will
not only protect you against
law-violation, but he will
prove to you that it's the
most economical form of
lighting for hallways.
