FIVE TYPES OF LIGHTING ON DISPLAY Five types of functional and decorative lighting combine to add a touch of elegance to this dining room table in General Electric's Residence Light- ing center. Two crystal fix- tures with low wattage in- andescent bulbs sparkle directly above the table for atmosphere. Recessed lights in the ceiling provide the main light and reflec- tor lamp fixtures mounted on tracks in the ceiling dra- matize the draperies along the back wall, An extra note of niceness is added by the "floating" fluores- cent. panel at right. The front panels are colored to complement the decorative scheme. Hidden uplighting is included at the side of the fluorescent panel to bring out the texture of the brick -wall.

You should be when you think of the dangers of walking down un- lighted stairs or along dark passageways. Your basement may be a charming, well decorated addi- tion to your home, or it may be an attic in reverse. Whichever it is, a light on the stairway can save many a dangerous fall. In fact all parts of your home should be well lighted to provide safe and easy access from one room to another. More accidents happen in the home than occur on the street. Safety experts and lighting en- gineers from Canadian General Electric agree that many home accidents are due to improper lighting. Think of a guest or even a member of your family getting up at night. Usually they will try to avoid waking others by not switching on bright lights. A low wattage night light left switched on in a central area of your home can eliminate dan- gerous groping from place to 5 | place. It can reveal unexpected hazards such as shoes or toys left on the floor. For the areas outside your home, PAR bulbs provide light Light On The Stairway -- Can Save Dangerous Fall which offers safety as well ag decoration. The garage is frequently @ dark and dangerous place, but a small wattage light helps point out the tools left on the floor, o« the bicycle which has been carelessly put away. A small bulb adds a fractional amount to your electricity bill, but it can cut a lot from your medical costs. Many homeowners have im stalled switches which turn on their lights automatically. This acts as a deterent to thieves and also provides a happy welcome to a family returning home after dark. Floodlighting of areas around factories and offices. provides a protection against break-ins. Thousands of dollars are spent each year to repair broken school] windows. Well lit school playgrounds help to check this vandalism. One dramatic example of good lighting for greater public safety is quoted by Canadian General Electric. Modern lighting was installed in five of the most crime-ridden areas of New York. All crimes dropped by 71 per cent and personal violence by almost one half, BUILD IN... _E'lectromode FLAMELESS ELECTRIC HEAT the leaders in Electric Heuting BUILDING OR REMODELLING YOUR HOME OR COTTAGE 56 PRINCE ST.
