Hence, General Motors new sign will never be obscured no mat- ter how dense a fog may come in from Lake Ontario. Another peculiar property of the Neon sign if the fact that its light element is clearly distinguishable by day. Ordinary eleetric light:ng pales to a glow under sunilght, but neon light shines out in its own quality of brillianey. Genera Motors new sign, as stat- ed, has 700 feet of glass tubing sha- ped to form illuminate the letters of the sign. These letters arc placed on a framework of angle steel, of which there are about 3,280 feet. The letter themselves are of gal- vanized iron, 450 square feet of that metal being used.

DEFER BANNING T HAND TURN | Police Commission Will Give Question More Thought Before Acting LJ the meeting of the Board of Police Commissioners yesterday. but the other members of the Com- mission disposed of minor matters. The matter of the banning of the left-hand turn at King and Simcoe streets was under discussion, but was laid over to allow more time in which to consider the matter. It is favoured in general principle by members of the Commission, but it is thought that too much traffic might be diverted thereby to some of the side streets that are mot too safe for traffic at the present time. The various accounts were pass- ed, and the Chief of Police was em- and certain other equipment for members of the department when they are required. Permission was was granted the local branch of the Canadian Legion to hold a Tag Day on November 1st, and to the Cooper- Smith Co. to place "No-Parking" signs in front of their place of busi- ness when they are umloading cars of material.
