Radiophones and Electricity Suggested
From Our Own Correspondent
Tulagi, Dec. 1.
nPHE prospect of having our little town illuminated by electricity, to be pro vided by a firm which already has done the same thing (as a commercial venture, of course), for other Islands towns, has our citizens greatly interested.
It certainly would be a great treat to Tulagi citizens and outsiders in port to be able to navigate the main road without a hurricane lamp, an electric torch, or the light from the Chinese stores to guide them.
A recent arrival in the Group is said to have seriously proposed wireless tele phonic communication between himself and his colleague on two separate islands. While there is no assurance that anything will come of the suggestion, it is hoped that the proposer may have enough influence to se cure his object, in which case such a use ful innovation may easily be more widely used. A trial installation will soon demon strate its usefulness.
